Star Light, Star Bright (George-Emily | G | 1,194 words): George and Emily stargaze one night. It's a wonderful father-daughter moment, touching on that protectiveness dads feel even when they don't have to deal with institutionalized slavery.

Excerpt:
George chuckles and reaches out to touch the side of her face.

"I love you very much. And I feel so fortunate to have been allowed to share all the parts of your life. Every moment is a blessing." He sits up and scoots his sleeping bag a little closer to hers. Pointing at the sky he says, "Do you see the Big Dipper?"

She sits up and leans her chin on his shoulder--when did she get tall enough to do that?--and looks along his arm to where he is pointing.

Man of Tweed (Giles | PG13 | 1,037 words). Giles is at the bank when Metallo decides to rob it. Superman and the citizens of Metropolis have a great deal of wide-eyed earnestness, while Giles is far more annoyed and practical about the incident.

Excerpt:
"I didn't go to all this trouble to set off alarms to attract your attention, and not have a plan, Kryptonian!" said Metallo, as a plate in his chest slid open and a sickly green glow shone out. There, sitting in the middle of a number of circuits and machinery, was a glowing green rock.

Giles sighed loudly, and waited for the inevitable defeat, ignoring the Account Manager's attempts to drag him back behind the desk in their meeting room. Honestly, Xander and Andrew would never forgive him if he didn't memorise every little detail.
