-snicker- I like that approach; it's certainly not a fair one, but this is the kind of fight where winning counts far more than anything else (assuming anything else really counts). I rather suspect that the three young women are going to definitely reconsider their feelings about Xander after this number; I suspect Giles may do a bit of recalibration, too.

Well, all I know for sure is that things are most certainly NOT going back to the way they were prior to Xander's challenge to Buffy. ;-)
The ultimate resolution is up to my muse, and she hasn't decided on exactly how things are going to work out, yet.

::snicker:: Oh, that's sneaky and underhanded and just what's needed to deal with their various targets. To modify the analogy, there are ways of dealing with army ants, but they don't involve directly killing them but rather by applying suitable chemical means of killing them (or at least diverting them into leaving you alone).

Well, as the saying goes, "If you ain't cheating, you ain't trying." ;-)
And Xander is trying to point out some rather glaring deficiencies in possible ways to help prevent potential apocalypses. The fact that he's having a great deal of enjoyment while doing so is completely irrelevant to his basic purpose. ;-)

I gotta say I got tired of all the crap that those three girls heaped on Xander after the Fluke. Yeah Cordy got hurt but if you review canon episodes 'She' cheated first. Also Willow was just as much to blame and Xander figured they were going to die anyway. Buffy was just being "Special Girl" and wanting to get Xander out of the way. Great story, please continue.

I agree with you fully. ;-)
And this version of Cordy deserves to be bitch-slapped until I get tired of watching. And that probably won't last more than three or four hours. ;-)

Wow. This is a really cool idea. Thank you for letting us read your work, and I can't wait to read more of it.
Sincerely

PS I don't know about chemistry, but what about using blessed batteries in a Tazer. I forget where, but some church had something called electric baptism where they wheeled out a car battery, and jumper cables, and zapped you instead of using water. Oh, and mixing holy water with gasoline. Holy water burns, gas ignites, and you turn any super soak-er into a flame thrower.

Glad you're enjoying the story. More as my muse inspires.

Oh bloody hell, I don't think Buffy is going to take this well to losing a deal/bet with Xander and having her lights knocked out, me thinks some payback is in order and with Willow and Cordelia sharing the pain...... boy is Xander going to get it.
Comments from author:
Possibly.
But this is a crack!fic,but remember that the 'Rules Of Funny' always take precedence in those. ;-)

In my little pocket reality, Xander had a pepper spray in his pocket for just such a demonstration. Now that we've negated the possible long-term effects of Formaldehyde... Hilarious!

Well, well, well. Most interesting concept, especially about the 'army of humanity', makes total sense. As for the three young ladies, quite a demonstration of Xander's part. I will be waiting to see where this goes, it has the making of a great story.
Comments from author:
Glad you're not taking this too seriously. ;-)
And I rather doubt that any of the girls will thanking Xander for what he did. ;-)
