Magic Box, Monday

Giles had spent a peaceful weekend puttering around his apartment and expected an equally peaceful week working in the Magic Box.

(Yeah, he wasn't used to Fandom yet.)

The Magic Box was open.

Jenna had been busy Watching everything yesterday and carefully writing everything down in her notebook, and had ended up falling asleep in the park. But now she was really, really hungry so she had to find Daddy or Mommy. And there was the Magic Box!

She pushed open the door happily. "Daddy? Mommy? Are you here?"

Giles looked up at the very young voice. "Hello," he said. "Are you lost?"

[identity profile] buffzillas.livejournal.com 2007-04-16 04:44 pm (UTC)(link)
"Not anymore!" Jenna smiled, then she pouted a little. "Daddy, I'm hungry. Can I have donuts for breakfast?"

Giles blinked. "I'm sorry, what did you just say?"

[identity profile] buffzillas.livejournal.com 2007-04-16 04:55 pm (UTC)(link)
"Daddy, can I have some donuts, please?" Jenna repeated patiently. "Daaaad, I'm hungry!"

More blinking, although the whine was enough to get Giles moving to offer the child the box of donuts he brought in to work.

Jenna brightened and grabbed one. "Where are we?" she asked, mouth full of donuts. "I was looking for the mummy hand and then I was in the park and there were LOTS of kids and I Watched and wrote down everything!" She dug into her pocket and produced a notebook with a pink pony on. "Look!"

"That's... ah... very impressive," Giles managed, still stuck back on the "Daddy" bit.

Willow came in with Ian in tow. She motioned Ian over to another side of the store. "Go over there, sweetie. That's where Giles keeps the crystal balls."

Willow then marched up to Giles. "You can't tell a girl you had sex? With her I might add??"

[identity profile] exwatcher.livejournal.com 2007-04-17 02:10 am (UTC)(link)
Giles gaped at Willow for a minute before things clicked. Or so he thought. "So she's yours," he said.

[identity profile] willbedone.livejournal.com 2007-04-17 02:16 am (UTC)(link)
"We are leaving the Seely situation right out of this!" Willow replied. "I'm just saying that a girl has a right to know who she's been naked with."

[identity profile] exwatcher.livejournal.com 2007-04-17 02:24 am (UTC)(link)
Giles was feeling more adrift. "What does Seely have to do with this?"

[identity profile] willbedone.livejournal.com 2007-04-17 02:28 am (UTC)(link)
"I'm trying to remain in denial that he's got anything to do with this," Willow said. "But we are talking about you, Mister, and how the British thing is nice and all but if I've got to block off nine months of my time the least you could do is give me a heads up about it."

[identity profile] exwatcher.livejournal.com 2007-04-17 02:41 am (UTC)(link)
"Willow," Giles said in a very slow and clear voice. "Pretend I don't know anything about what you're talking about."

[identity profile] willbedone.livejournal.com 2007-04-17 02:45 am (UTC)(link)
"Okay." Willow readied herself and spoke in a slow and patient voice. "When a Mommy and Daddy - or in this case Watcher and Scooby - love each other very much and/or possibly got drunk one day but really I'm hoping there was no unpleasantness or cheating involved - they get certain urges...."

"I know what sex is," Giles blurted.

[identity profile] willbedone.livejournal.com 2007-04-17 02:56 am (UTC)(link)
"And yet apparently not condoms."

[identity profile] exwatcher.livejournal.com 2007-04-17 03:18 am (UTC)(link)
"Willow," Giles said exasperatedly. "Can you please stop with the disturbing sex talk and just tell me what the problem is?"

[identity profile] willbedone.livejournal.com 2007-04-17 03:19 am (UTC)(link)
Willow pointed. "Meet Ian. Our son."

[identity profile] willbedone.livejournal.com 2007-04-17 03:33 am (UTC)(link)
"That's where I was," Willow agreed. She gave Ian a reassuring smile. "Trust me, weirdness aside you'll like him. He's all smart and magicy and Britishy about stuff."

Perfectly came into the Magic Box in her all-black dress and boots, fiddling with her pigtails a little. She tried to find a quiet corner to sit in.

Looking up and seeing yet another child in his shop, Giles asked, "Can I help you, young lady?" Hoping that there wasn't going to be yet a third instance of someone calling him "Daddy."

[identity profile] momsucksatnames.livejournal.com 2007-04-17 02:13 am (UTC)(link)
Perfectly shrugged. "I can't buy anything," she said.

[identity profile] exwatcher.livejournal.com 2007-04-17 02:27 am (UTC)(link)
Well that didn't seem the prelude to declaring herself to be his progeny at least. "Are you lost?"

[identity profile] momsucksatnames.livejournal.com 2007-04-17 02:28 am (UTC)(link)
Perfectly shook her head. "I'm Perfectly Normal," she said.

[identity profile] exwatcher.livejournal.com 2007-04-17 02:41 am (UTC)(link)
"Well that puts you one up on a lot of the people here," Giles observed dryly.

[identity profile] momsucksatnames.livejournal.com 2007-04-17 02:45 am (UTC)(link)
Perfectly shrugged. "Or a step behind," she said. "My sisters are more special than me."
