Characters/Pairing: Giles
Was Not/Was
There was a teary-eyed girl to comfort after her big sister ran away. There were sticky fingers to keep away from his precious volumes. There was a Slayer to be made to focus when she wanted to rant about a sweater-stealing little brat.
But it never happened. Buffy explains there were only reality twisting monks who gave them this gift, this different life.
Later, Giles enters his flat, looks about at familiar books, carefully chosen art, personal trinkets. This is home, a place he remembers filling with comfort and memories and now he wonders if he's ever been here before.
