...that I gave Giles' loft three bedrooms in a fic?
In my defence, well, no there _is_ no defence. In a feeble attempt at an excuse, rather, when I wrote that story we weren't seeing G's home anymore as it was post S6 and he'd left for England, and I don't know about you, but when you watch a TV programme as a viewer and as a writer wanting to snorfle up every detail to make her fics canonically correct it's like the difference between going somewhere in a car as a passenger and going there when you have to drive; you might've thought you knew the way, but as you were so busy staring out of the window and enjoying the scenery, you actually don't have a clue if it's right or left at the lights...
So in 'Preying on my Mind' Giles' place got an extension and there's nothing I can do about it. I can't amend the fic without losing some important plotty goodness (not to mention a spanking with donuts involved, iirc). But I still cringe just thinking about it and I'm sure people read it and roll their eyes and possibly get so out of patience with me that they stop reading.
Hell, I would ;-)
Happy Birthday![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
maviankha! Don't know if you're still around LJ, or reading this, but hope it's a happy day wherever you are.
I'm closing the poll on which other two pairings I should drabble now: Wesley/Spike and Wesley/Angel were the winners.
Works for me :-)
