Super chapter! Giles ribbing Xander at the end is perfect (as is the inordinate interest of Buffy in their conversation). Amy's untimely death will spice things up a bit, I suspect, but I'm really looking forward to the peeling back of all those layers. *winks*

Really nice update, love. It's a pleasure to see Xander coming to terms with what the spell has revealed to him about himself.
