Taming the Muse is giving us a week off before making changes to how prompts and awards will work. But I didn't want to miss a week so I picked an old prompt, abacus, and included it in a scene from my Giles as the Big Bad fic. I'm not sure if I'll be using this scene though. It really doens't do much more than say where in the episode plotline we are.

( When Buffy’d interviewed drummer guy from Brett’s band - and what kind of a name was Vampire Hillboys anyway? - the guy hadn’t stopped tapping out rhythms against his locker for even a second. It’d been bad enough then, like he didn’t even know he was doing it, so why was she thinking of it now? As she walked along the empty hallway the only sound came from her heels clicking against the floor, beating out their own rhythm. Oh. )

I've been reviewing stories to rec for the WIcked Awards and just finished rereading Bread. It's a Tara/Willow story where making bread is a metaphor for living your life. It's a beautiful story.

Summary: Rewrite of season 1 with Giles as the Big Bad.
Note: Many thanks to Gill O for Brit-picking this chapter. She put in far more effort than I had any right to expect and I truly appreciate it.
Note: Thanks to Gill O and Il Mio Capitano for help with terms Giles might use for a police officer.
