Thank you, Quaggy! These drabbles are so lovely! What a sweet and thoughtful gift! <3
Giles so does wear sandalwood! A bit spicy and very clean smell. And I can totally understand Buffy's reaction. Smell triggers memories like nothing else, and it is understandable that Buffy would miss the way he smells, especially during a time when they are so estranged.
And the second one... How very true. She might not recognise a casual evening at his for more than just friends hanging out. Very in character for Giles. It was easy for him to seduce someone he doesn't know, or continue a casual affair with someone he does, but when the stakes are raised with someone he loves... well, it's easy to get tongue tied.
