Giles needed to phone Buffy again. Preferably after the hangover and headache dissipated. Perhaps he could simply stare at the words on the page of the dusty volume and they would explain a method of defeating Eyghon.

Or, no. Focusing, Giles realized it the book was open to a section about the care of turnips.

*nervously*

Mr. Giles?

Yes. I was speaking with Ethan and Anya and they suggested that I might like to meet you and make your acquaintance?

If I'm bothering you I can always come back later...

[e_rayne]

*grins* *cocks his head*

I thought you might want to see something refreshing, love.

[watcher_gman]

Erm. *blinks*

A car. It's a bloody car. A talking automobile.

[ki2k]

I'm bothering you, aren't I? It's all right, you can tell me.

[watcher_gman]

N-no, it's, erm. This is a dream, yes. A particularly strange one. Or...

Ethan, is this your car?

[ki2k]

It's no dream, Mr. Giles. My name is KITT. I'm an artificial intelligence. It's nice to meet you. And no, I don't belong to Ethan. I'm the property of the Foundation for Law and Government.

[watcher_gman]

Erm. That's...very nice.

[ki2k]

Yes. It is, rather.

Is something bothering you, Mr. Giles? According to my scans, your heartrate is elevated, and you are perspiring. Perhaps you should sit down?

[watcher_gman]

Scans? Erm. N-no, thank you. I'm...fine.

[ki2k]

Are you sure? You appear to be uneasy. Was it something I said?

You really don't look very well, Mr. Giles, if you'll pardon me for being blunt.

A drink of water might do you a world of good.

[watcher_gman]

Erm, y-yes. Perhaps. Er.

Pardon me for being blunt, but...are you really an automobile?

[ki2k]

Perhaps. I would get one for you, but unfortunately I have a bit of a problem with fine motor skills.

... Yes? Seriously, Mr. Giles, I really am an automobile, that happens to house a sentient AI.

[watcher_gman]

Erm. Y-you wouldn't happen to be...possessed, would you?

[ki2k]

*shocked*

I'm sorry. Possessed? No! I mean, not that I'm aware... Possessed? As in, by a demon of some sort?

No one's ever asked me that before.

To the best of my knowledge, I am not now, nor have I ever been, possessed.

[watcher_gman]

That's rather fortunate.

[ki2k]

Yes, I think so...
