( “How can you *not have* a computer?” Willow asked for perhaps the tenth time as Giles drove the car past her parents' house and around the block. “I have to deal with the dreadful thing in the library,” he mumbled, his response having grown progressively less polite with each iteration. “Why on Earth would I want one in my home?” “Oh, I don't know,” Willow countered as he pulled to a stop on the cross street and parked in front of a neighbor's house, less than a block away but well out of sight of the Rosenberg's front door and windows. “Maybe in case of an emergency?” )

Chapter Nine: Tristan and Isolde

( Giles looked over at Willow for the first time since they'd started driving. “I'm sorry if I've been... distracted,” he apologized. “I'm just... having a lot of thoughts at once and not sure what to think about them.” Willow nodded, made understanding noises and offered to change the subject again if he wanted. “No,” Giles countered. “We do need to talk. Seriously I mean. About our... erm relationship and the directions our lives are taking.” Willow nodded, looking both hopeful and terrified. This couldn't wait any longer. She needed an explanation, and she deserved the truth. )

Chapter Eight: Harsh

( “You need to stand back,” the Fire Marshall ordered firmly, standing toe to toe with the Librarian, calm as fuck, arms crossed with the confidence of authority. “Nobody's going into that area, it's too hot. There's already been a small explosion and a partial collapse of the upper floor, and the sprinklers have stopped working. Right now we're just trying to contain. If the flames reach the science lab, the whole place could go up.” “But Cordelia—!” “—is either clear of that area or dead,” the Fire Marshall cut him off impatiently. )

Chapter Seven: One Hell of a Woman

( “Buffy,” Giles tried appealing to her one more time, “you must believe me, I never intended any of this—” “Oh, I believe you,” Buffy assured him in an even, almost friendly tone in which he could detect no trace of sarcasm. “It's not you; it's the hotel. You're just the caretaker.” “What?” Giles knew he was missing something, but he honestly didn't know what it was. Buffy didn't seem as if she'd gone mad, just the opposite. The Slayer rolled her eyes and heaved a sigh as she started shoving an amazingly large wheeled book case towards the swinging doors to the main hallway. “Uh... It's a literary reference(?)” she replied with exaggerated sarcasm. “Geez, who's the librarian here, you or me?” )

Chapter Six: Arranged to be So

( Buffy had been left Watcherless for months following Merrick's death because the Council had not been able to agree upon where to send her or with whom. Finally, they had agreed to let fate decide, positioning Watchers and staff in each of the likeliest places. And though it had barely made the list at all, though it had been assigned only a single Watcher whose questionable past had kept him in the worst, least important assignments throughout his career, fate had sent Buffy to Sunnydale. And into the arms of Rupert Giles. )

A Word about Punctuation and Irony: In this story, I've used a couple of unusual (but handy) punctuation marks which you may (or may not) be familiar with from the subtitles to the BtVS DVD box sets... if you've ever watched them with the subtitles on. This mark (!)--not the confused with the more common ! exclamation point—expresses irony or sarcasm. Or you can phrase your sarcasm in the form of a question, with this (?).

Chapter Five: Anywhere But Here

( “We need to talk. Now!” she demanded. The entirely genuine anger she projected at him did nothing to mask her fear. “Now, yes,” Giles agreed, “but n—not here. You see w—we need to get out of the library!” “Oh no,” the Slayer countered, grabbing him by both arms and shoving him bodily into the tiny office, standing between him and the door. “You. Are. Not. Going. Anywhere!” )

Chapter Three: Get It Done

( Giles had made his formal request for reassignment to the Council nearly three weeks ago, their idea of taking immediate action was to try to schedule a meeting to discuss it by end of the month with an eye towards working up a proposal for the next quarterly meeting. Meanwhile, all the signs and portents he'd been reading, together with the relevant prophesies and the information he'd managed to get from the demon itself, pointed to a crucial mystical upheaval here in Sunnydale within days, possibly less. Which meant that Giles, not his eventual replacement, would have to be the one to deal with it, or rather, to see that it got dealt with. And once he had had his one and only (uncontainable) idea for gaining the Slayer's cooperation, once he had seen the logic in it, he couldn't unsee it. )

Chapter One: Clarification

( Rupert Giles felt acutely self-conscious. He felt like an obvious pervert, a conspicuous voyeur. No one knows. The voice reminded him smugly. No one can see me, especially when I'm being good. ... Rupert would have liked nothing more than to have retreated to his dark, quiet, private office in his almost always mostly empty library. But he didn't dare revert to his original plan of waiting there for the Slayer to come to him, as was her destiny. Under the circumstances, he simply had to intercept her on more neutral, more public territory. )

I'm here!

I bring you Giles, Giles/Willow and Giles/Cordy manips/headers/wallpapers/icons. (I was trying for a Giles/Buffy manipheader but it just doesn't look right.)

I'm going to say NOT WORKSAFE since there is a bit of skin showing.
