Mistletoe and Wine
By Kerry Blackwell
TITLE: Mistletoe and Wine (Part 0/12)
AUTHOR: Kerry Blackwell
PAIRING: B/G (among others)
RATING: G
DISCLAIMER: All things Buffy belong to Joss Whedon, the WB, FOX and Mutant
Enemy and 20th Century Fox Film Corporation. I own only my genius (yeah,
right!)
AUTHOR'S NOTE: I have made an effort to include ALL of Gileswench's
challenge requirements into this story, although you will see as it
progresses that I've twisted a couple of them to make them fit. Hey, this
is a fun fic and that's the fun of fanfic. See if you can find them all.
Oh yeah, and Angel is in this. I'm sorry, sue me, but I like him and he
wanted to join in the Christmas festivities so I let him. Don't worry
though, this is a happy fic and he won't be causing any problems for Buffy
and Giles. (Or none of the kind you might expect, anyway.) Hopefully,
I'll be posting a part a day until Christmas (using my time zone, so it'll
be a day earlier for most of you) with an extra (not Buffy/Giles but a
sidenote to the rest of the story) on Boxing Day. Hope you enjoy this
piece of Christmas confusion.
DISTRIBUTION: Eventually (probably like January some time when I've had a
chance to rest and catch up) on my site - White Hats -
http://www.forty-two.co.nz/whitehats. Gabi if you want them. Any one else
please ask first
FEEDBACK: Well, I'm certainly not going to complain! :-)
The challenge:
Okay folks, it's been too quiet around here lately so I'm posting a Christmas challenge. It's due by Boxing day (December 26, for those unfamiliar).
Pairing: B/G (how do you spell "duh"?)
Rating: Any. Be as naughty or nice as you please.
Must include ALL of the following: A non-traditional use for a candy cane, either Giles or Wesley telling someone: "You know, when I take off my glasses, you're beautiful", Giles playing his guitar, a home made Christmas gift.
Must include at least THREE (3) of the following: Alternate lyrics to a Christmas Carol, somebody watching a well-known holiday movie or tv show, Anya misinterpreting a Christmas tradition, Buffy and Giles patrolling together, a lump of coal in someone's Christmas stocking, Buffy crying.
There it is, folks. Good luck, and have fun!
