Dedication: Blame Chris for this one. She'd mentioned wheelchair smut when I was writing "Wounded Heart", and I managed to sidestep the bunny that time, but when she mentioned it again and I was trying to get her to write it, the bunny jumped back on me and bit me--hard! Guess that's what I get for trying to foist it off on her. *G* This is also for Luisa, Kristin, Chris and all the others who said I needed to write more happy stuff and less angsty suff. Hope ya like it.

Thanks: Thanks to Gail for the beta on this one. I don't know about other authors, but I *know* my stories wouldn't be as good without them.

Author's note: This is an answer to Gileswench's Monday mini-challenge #28. "A Giles family Gathering" Thanks to Morr for the beta. But she also bunnied me again by the end of it, so I'm not sure if I should thank her or curse her. *BBG* I did play with it a bit after she saw it, so any mistakes are mine, as always.

Spoilers: Season 7 BtVS

Rating: PG
Spoilers: Season 7 "Lies My Parents Told Me"
Summary: Giles has had enough
Thanks: I'd like to thank CAT for her comments and Morr for the beta. Both helped make this a better fic and both are appreciated very, very much.
Author's note: This is not a fluffy, feel-good Buffy fic. This is my depiction of season 7 Buffy and Giles. It doesn't have a happy ending anywhere in sight. Please take heed of that. I don't think of this as Buffy-bashing, but I'm aware that not everyone will agree with my depiction of the characters here. If you have something constructive to say, please do. If you only want to flame me-feel free, just know that you're wasting your time



Regrets
Rating: PG-13
Pairing: Buffy/Giles
Spoilers: Season 6, "After Life"
Summary: Can't think of a good summary that doesn't give it away.
Author's note: WARNING: Angst, character death. This one came from a plot bunny that Ewie gave me-- well, not really *gave* me. She was talking about it and it kinda jumped on me and demanded to be written. *G*

Thanks: Wenchie and Gail for being my betas on this sucker.

Sidenote: Jordan, Mathis, Marcus and any other Original Characters are mine



A Slayer's Regret
Pairing None
Rating: R for language and violence ANGST!!!! Multiple character deaths
Spoilers: All of season 7
Summary: Giles and Buffy part company in a final way.
Thanks: The deepest thanks to Morr for the beta. This started out as a short, five page fic. Morr saw more to it than that and made me see it too. She is definitely the best and I am very lucky to have her - both as a beta and as a friend.
Author's Notes: This was inspired by the Brad Paisley & Allison Krauss song "Whiskey Lullaby". It veers somewhat from the song, but it's what caused the bunny to bite me. // denotes flashbacks.



Still Holding Out For You

Summary: Giles finally thinks about Jenny's death. This is an angsty fic, ya'll; you have been warned. *G*

Surprise

Pairing: Giles/?
Spoilers: Season 2 "Passion"
Summary: Giles finds out he's going to be a daddy.
Thanks: To Gail for the beta., It's much appreciated.

Rating: PG-13
Spoilers: Through "Grave"
Summary: Giles and Anya talk after the world doesn't end.

Summary: Definitely Sillyfic. Giles is watching a movie and Buffy is shocked to see what it is.
Thanks: Thanks to CAT for the beta. But, as usual, all mistakes are mine.
Author's note: This is an answer to Gilewench's Monday Mini-Challenge #1 on GRB which is as follows: Someone catches Giles watching his favorite movie of all time. What is it? Why? How does the other person react? This should be super-easy, but I'm hoping I gave enough clues for you to figure out what the movie is. *G*
