It's Buffy's PoV all the way through. I try not to change PoV within a scene.

I'd much rather people loved me than my authorial inserts. *Grin*

I think Andrew's Slayers are clever enough to keep the fate of the world out of his hands when Buffy isn't around, which is - you're right - good for the world. ;-)

I've been working on Giles as the Big Bad. Over at Summer of Giles they've gotten me to agree to post chapter 4 (Teacher's Pet) there toward the end of July.
