*wipes tears from eyes* Fiona, your imagination never ceases to amuse me, especially when it actively seeks out randomness. Great episode, that. "Witch," from the first season. I love it, not only because of the magical freakiness, but because Giles goes all hero and saves the day, and then he's all humble about it, and Buffy says something like: "Are you kidding? You saved my life. You're a god!" And I'm just like, yep, got that right. And of course, that's the episode where you first get the feeling that she's pretty special to him, because he goes all desperate and gentle when she's dying from the curse. *squee*
And now I got all inspired and made this icon, which has a quote from a season 4 episode, "Where the Wild Things Are," where Giles has a gig at the Espresso Pump and the gang (minus Buffy and Riley, who are 'in trouble') runs to him for help and is dumbstruck by his musical skills (Willow and Anya drool- figuratively, Tara looks impressed and Xander is very, very scared). And then the next scene, when they're researching, goes like this:
GILES: When you called to Buffy and Riley, they didn't cry out or, or respond in any way? ANYA: (bored) No. They're probably dead. XANDER: Unless they're too busy doin' it to answer. GILES: Doing what? XANDER: You know, for a god of acoustic rock, you're ... kind of naive. GILES: (rolls his eyes) I didn't think you meant ... In the midst of all that, do you really think they were keeping it up? (Everyone looks at him.) GILES: Oh, for a different phrasing.
