#51 - Principal Wood Challenge
Submitted by Shelley
It occurs to me that among all the Giles slash fics out there, he has
never been paired with the single most beautiful man to ever appear on
Buffy: Robin Wood. (If I'm wrong on that, please give me the link!)
This strikes me as deeply wrong, so here's the challenge:
In "Lies My Parents Told Me," Giles put a helluva lot of faith in a man
he had just barely met. Why would he do that? It couldn't be just
because Robin was raised by a Watcher; Giles doesn't trust his fellow
Watchers enough for that to carry much weight with him. It couldn't be
because of Robin's superior combat skills; Giles never saw Robin fight
himself, but only heard Buffy talk about them. It certainly couldn't
have been Principal Wood's tactical skills, because he apparently
didn't have any. So... is it possible that Giles' sole reason for
trusting a relative stranger was because they *weren't* such strangers
after all? Perhaps they were already having The Sex?
Requirements:
- Wood using sex to get Giles to agree to his half-assed plan to kill Spike.
- No moral judgment on whether the attempt on Spike was justified or not.
(I don't want to see this turn into either a anti-Spike or a anti-Giles fic. Let's keep the focus on two pretty men.)
- At least two vague references to characters or situations from Robin Hood, but not the famous outlaw himself. Bonus points if Robin Wood is totally oblivious to these references.
I would prefer a humorous take on this challenge, but could totally see the angsty potential as well. Just so long as Giles and Wood are naked at some point, I'll be happy with anything!
