(Rated PG - no curse words. Pre-slash. Xander comes home from Africa. With a surprise. Some G-man angst. Mention of slayage - not the good kind.)
Thanks to Karen/s for the look through. Any mistakes are mine. Apologies to dr. squidlove for the similar

Wait. Ten years... ~click~ *Oh*. You need need a bell so I can keep track of you, B.
--> Yes, well, I've never been successful with a nomme d'net - still pretty much out there. And when you tell people you started out in StarTrek Voyager, their eyes glaze over....
And no worries about the title. 'Coming Home' is not exactly running for the title prize.
--> But "home" is a nice theme for our Xander, eh?
It was so little to do, but Giles felt it was never enough. To give Xander now what he probably never had - a safe place to come home to.
Nice.
--> Thanks.
I knew it wasn't going to be a slayer - when you said it was just an e-mail for two tickets, I was sure he was coming home with a boyfriend. A child is much preferable. Kinda. ~g~
--> Oooooh. A boyfriend. That might have made an intersting wrinkle. Keep an open mind. The bulk of my writing right now is in Stargate with a Daniel that's been made little. It's a whole sub-culture, I tell you.
"Tried to tell myself, what would Giles say to the officious toady at the British Consulate? How would Giles handle a condescending flight attendant?" Xander paused to let the impish smile form, the one Giles was so fond of. "By the end of the trip, everyone was calling me sir."
lol - that's really cool.
--> I just love a strong, in charge Xander. Makes my heart go pitty-pat.
Thank you!
No, no. Thank *you*!
