Shadow -- you *cannot* do this

Items 4,5 & 6 (as copied below for anyone who missed them) all need turning
itno fully-fledged fics, not least of all 4 which gives us neither
background, foresight nor autogrpahed videotapes.

Unl;ess we get more, I fear that the Awesome Curse of Nyrond may have to be
unleashed.

Soren, Nyrond, Lurker, and Impatient

Item 4:
"My mother let you do WHAT in our living room??" Buffy demanded in an
outraged tone.

"She let us get naked and then joined us," Tara replied with a straight
face
for about two seconds before her face broke into a big grin. "Gotcha!"

Item 5:
Giles stood in the threshold of the living room looking at the two
figures curled up together on the floor, the little redhead using the
taller dark-haired figure as a pillow. "My girls," he thought proudly,
his fatherly instincts kicking in full force and he really couldn't care
less at the moment. Not after the week they had, that saw Sunnydale
nearly ripped apart as the final battle for control of the hellmouth was
literally taken to the streets and fought hand to hand. Looking to his
left he saw Xander sound asleep on the couch, the young man's head
pillowed in his live-in girlfriend's lap, as Anya absently ran her hand
through his unruly hair. Pausing to share a quiet look with the
ex-vengeance demon, Giles let his gaze fall to Xander's hand, or where
the young man's hand should have been, had it not been bitten off by
that Ramovic-demon... too bad the demon didn't seen the grenade he was
holding when it clamped down. The Watcher was certain he wouldn't be
getting that terrifying image, or Xander's screams before he passed out
from the pain, out of his head anytime soon... sometimes his son's
courage amazed even him. "My son!" he thought with a proud smile,
having adopted the boy, like the two girls, as his years ago.

Moving away from the two on the couch, he let his gaze find his oldest
Slayer, who was still on guard it seemed. Standing at the cracked
picture window staring into the still darkness of the night, her prized
axe held at the ready in case any of the stragglers of the demon army
they may have missed in the final battle wanted to try for a
counter-strike. Silently he watched as Dawn cautiously walked up to her

sister, doing the one thing no one else had the guts to do before now.
She calmly placed her arms around the Slayer's waist and rested her head
against Buffy's arm, wordlessly joining her in the visual.

At first Buffy made no move to acknowledge her sister, but finally
released her two handed hold on her axe and snaked an arm around Dawn
pulling her close. Kissing the top of her sister's dark hair as she
pulled her sibling closer, "We got them Dawn... we got them."

Behind them Giles watched lost in his own thoughts, nearly jumping out
of his skin when Joyce quietly joined him, silently lending him her
support and strength that seemed apart of the genetic makeup of the
Summers women.

Item 6:
The frisky wercat pounced on her slayer the moment the chosen one walked
through the door.

"Er... Wills why are you sitting on Faith?" Buffy asked coming up to the

open door.

"Mine," the redhead said looking up at the other slayer, "Naked!" she
suddenly added lunging for the other Slayer.

Buffy found herself lying flat on her back with a naked redhead sitting
on her chest, "Too much... take off now!" Willow growled pawing at her
clothing, "Naked!"

Rolling over and casting a look over her shoulder, "How come I'm 'mine'
and you're 'naked'?" Faith asked.

"Mine! Help... too much.... need off," Willow demanded with a low
growl.

"Quick laughing Faith... I'm about to get molested on my front lawn."

"Naked! Mine!" the redhead said before lowering her head and kissing
the startled Slayer while Faith continued to laugh.

"Remind me to kill the Xand-man when this spell wears off," Faith said
with a last chuckle getting up to walk over to the other two. "Hey
Red.... you and 'naked' inside... no neighbours watching." She said to
the somewhat feral hacker.
