Thank you so much! Not too fluffy at all. I really enjoyed this look at Giles's dread post-Council, and his unwilling connection with Andrew, embarrassment about realising everyone knows about him and Buffy, and the happy cookie moments were very sweet and enjoyable.

What Dawn had called a Super-size, if he recalled correctly. Certainly not the term one wants to hear when discussing evil. made me laugh, but also gave an effective idea of the scary impact of the Turok Han - it's a reminder of all the terrifying stuff behind this little interlude.

I think cookies make everything immeasurably better -solemn nod-

I'm glad you liked it. Particularly the Council bit. They really didn't seem to expand on that much in the show, but the First took out an ancient institution in the blink of an eye. Useless as the Council may have been at times, their destruction was rather overlooked.

And of course it would be Andrew, of all people, who would break the 'news' that their relationship is hardly a secret x3

Thank you. As I mentioned, I haven't done Andrew before, so it's nice to hear you liked how I wrote him ^^

[laucus]

Why thank you :3 I was originally planning to use Willow, but I thought a 'confidence' from Andrew would be far less expected. And Andrew's rather fun to play with.

Okay, so I guess Buffy is finally 'Baked' and she has found her baker. So glad it was the one of which I approved.
Think Andrew and the scoobies did as well.

[laucus]

So it would seem ^^

Oh, this is wonderful! I love Andrew's awkward attempts at reaching out, and the interaction here is lovely.

Thank you!
