*sniff* This was wonderful. A best moment showing the friendship, the 'family' they created (without the baggage). I love that Xander snuggles up to Giles like that. And that they bring out all the things that evoke Joyce's memory, of the comfort and family she created. And the famous hot chocolate.
This and the story where Xander writes to Santa are such wonderful fandom holiday stories. they go along nicely with chocgood84's 'gingerbread homes & christmas wishes' as my holiday happy reading.

Aww, Joyce. D: But Giles' snuggles will make it better, so it's all good. Why can't I have any? (No, seriously, where are the snuggles? This week has sucked).

ITA, Giles Snuggles make everything better and I want some for myself. Too bad he's too busy occupied with these three. Luckily, I have Cordy Cuddles to see me through! \o/ I can send you some Angel or Wes if you'd like. :)
Thank you for the privilege of reading this piece. It is very heartwarming, remembers the fallen characters without focusing the story on them, and portrays the Scoobies very much ‘in character.’ It was a distinct pleasure.
