Summer of Giles

For my second day, I actually went back and finished the main story in the middle of the series (instead of the end - wacky muse). This completes the series. Much thanks to the mods for giving us another great Summer of Giles!

Title: The Avengers
Author: ubiquirk
Fandom: BtVS
Rating: PG13
Genre: drama, action/adventure
Word Count: ~6700
Characters: Faith, Giles
Disclaimer: Not mine; no money.
AN: Set post “Chosen,” just after “No Future for You.” Written for summer_of_giles 2009. Third in the Avengers Series. Although each story can stand alone, this one is the direct sequel to both ‘Feet of Clay’ and ‘New Kind of Same’ and references events in each. Much thanks to my beta firefly_124.

Summary: Each estranged in their lives, Faith and Giles have formed a ‘working partnership between equals.’ But something’s got the demons of London in an uproar, and the duo’s first big case as ‘Peel and Steed’ proves tougher than expected … on multiple levels.


The Avengers

Title: Vacation (all I ever wanted)
Author: ubiquirk
Fandom: BtVS
Rating: PG13
Genre: humor, drama
Word Count: 1160
Characters: Faith, Giles
Disclaimer: Not mine; no money.
AN: Set once Faith and Giles have teamed up after “No Future for You.” Written for both summer_of_giles and still_grrr (because sometimes it takes two). Fifth in the Avengers Series, which begins with last year's SOG story 'Feet of Clay,' though each story can stand alone. Much thanks to my beta firefly_124.

Summary: “Damn it, Giles.” Faith wipes dayglo goo from her eyes. “You said this was gonna be a vacation!”

Vacation (all I ever wanted)

Title: Feet of Clay
Author: ubiquirk
Rating: PG13
Genre: genfic: angst, drama
Word Count: ~4000
Character: Giles
Disclaimer: Not mine; no money.
Summary: Sent to determine why a Watcher and Potential stopped communicating with the Council, Giles confronts his own “Conversations with Dead People” in the Old Jewish Cemetery of Prague. Set during early season 7 and just after “Chosen.”

AN: Written for[Unknown site tag] summer_of_giles 2008. Humongous thanks to my beta, firefly_124, and Brit-picker, saracen77.  The Golem of Prague is an actual folktale that exists in varying versions, but I’ve taken even more liberties with it. Ne – no (Czech). Wer sind Sie? – Who are you? (German).  [saracen77 m[Unknown site tag]ade me aware that there's a Discworld novel of the same name, but unfortunately I never read that far into the series, so there's no Pratchett-like humor here.]

Lots of thanks to katekat1010 and elizabuffy for all their hard work running the comm - you do a smashing job!
