Yay! *bounces*

I love perceptive!Xander. I thought the shifts from mature older Xander to younger Xander, like when he said he couldn't believe he was having a conversation about bondage with Giles, were particularly good.

Also - that was hot, and I am so thrilled to see more of this!

Yay thanks! I like writing a transitional Xander. Heck, I just like writing Xander.

Next I need to get over my Willow voice fear and give her some friendship time with Buffy.

Whoa dude! That was close, Giles! (He'll not make it through the week.)

He'll hold out! He's gotta. Buffy would be grumpy.

Yay, Blackmail! I love that Xander's figured it out and that he isn't judgmental about it.

You know, in the lesson on sexual dreams in my Human Sexuality course my soph year of college, we learned that doing what Giles does here is pretty much a recipe for a wet dream. Or at least that's what my prof said.

Physiology being what it is, yeah, seems likely.

This Xander is the one who shouted to the UCSunnydale campus that he liked oral sex. Mostly to honk off Riley, but also to make Willow and Buffy laugh.

I do feel a bit sorry for Riley in this 'verse. I mean, he's pretty Teutonic, to quote Xander, but he really does think Buffy is The One.

It makes me so very happy to see another story in this 'verse. This series was what really hooked me on you as a writer. And Giles/Xander friendship is always a good and joyful thing.

Yay! I'm glad this storyline has fans. With 69 prompts to write and 70 segments planned, it'll be my longest story by far. But writing in bite-sized chunks like this makes it feel possible.

Ah, I'm in a happy place now. It's so good to see these two men to interact as two grown-ups, as equals. The ending, shall we say, made me really happy. ;)

Ahem. I feel stupid for asking this, but what's the difference between pool and snooker?

antennapedia July 12 2008, 04:32:03 UTC

Pool and snooker are kinda similar. Snooker balls are slightly smaller and are colored differently. A snooker table is larger and the design of the pockets is different. Snooker proper is harder than pool, mostly because of the differences in the tables. I didn't deep-end on researching this, because I wasn't sure I could get it right. Instead I have Giles and Xander playing a game familiar to Xander (and me): eight-ball.

And thank you! I'm glad for providing happy-making endings.
