Drabble: Family Matters

Title: Family Matters
Characters: Giles
Rating: G/FRC
Word count: 100
Last line / first line: "The Sunnydale survivors needed better ways of making money."


The Sunnydale survivors needed better ways of making money. So, it was welcome news when a letter arrived stating that he was Richard Asquith’s sole surviving heir. He had been an elderly Watcher who had died in a Bringer attack. Giles hadn’t realized that he was related to the old goat, but, then again, most Watchers were.... He needed to talk to Willow immediately.

Between he and Robinson, they were related to most of the old Watcher families and better their money be dedicated to saving the world than go to the crown.

Now, this was an idea worth investigating.

I'm sure it's what they would have wanted!

A fun idea.

excellent. That's a really clever explanation for how they got set up, and even how they would be able to pay their members and afford old texts.

Ha! I bet those lines are all sorts of knotted up! But hey, it benefits the new organisation! Nice one!

Very cool. I love this idea, it would be awesome if you did work it into another fic at some point. :)
