Thank you. I'm really glad that you enjoyed it (if enjoyed is really quite the right word for a fic like this. ha!). It's something that I've been writing for a really long time now (I actually started it around this time last year), and I just hope I managed to do the idea justice!
I have a love/hate thing going on with the comics. I love some of it, utterly hate other things. But I really kinda love mini-Giles in an odd way. And I especially love the scope it gives when it comes to messing around in AU territory, which I love to do. There are so many ways you can go post-series with a de-aged Giles - and it's just ripe for angst (which I do love. Not that you can tell... LOL).
