Re: Here's To You *Chapters 1 &2*

hah, yes while my heart lies in Buffy/Willow stories i
have to say i sometimnes think i missed my calling
with Xander and Anya they're definatly fun to write,
and as I was typing up chapter two I was practically
knocked over by the thought of Giles hired as a Santa
and none other then Oz dressed as an elf, give it a
little comedy to take the fictiony edge off it, since
real life wouldn't have Buffy tearing away constantly
and so on, and ohh yes how i would have paid to see
her look spike in the eye and just shoot him down like
that afraid even the great Joss missed that twist ;)
thanks for reading and more to come (as always)
