And they lived happily ever after. And with giles realization at the wedding he won't try to screw things up and might even help if any of the Scoobies try to screw with things.
Ha! Classic Spike. I loved this short story. It's only two chapters, but it has everything a well-developed sago would: humor, love, angst, character growth, plot, plot twist. I was quite surprised that Giles was the one to stop the wedding. I was sure it'd be Spike, but it's nice to see Giles realizing that what's best for Buffy is what makes her happy, not what makes him happy. Parents always want the best for their children--or their slayers--but, at some point, they have to let them lead their own lives. Great story.
Thank you so much for your review - I'm thrilled that you thought it all worked. And I so want Giles to let go. You're right - he's just like a parent who is being over-protective, but eventually the apron-strings have got to be cut. Thanks again. Love your icon!
