"The only character on either series who was really an adult, who was a whole person without crippling insecurities and self-loathing, who accepted their self as self...was Giles."

Made me lol

okay, so explaining why is going to sound like character bashing.
I love Giles, I really do, but crippling insecurities and self loathing feature large in my understanding of him. Maybe he accepted himself- when he thought he was dying. The man is hugely messed up.
And turns up to get the job done anyway.
So, love him.

hee. actually, that made me giggle, too. Cause... oh, yeah. Giles has issues. Especially insecurity and self-loathing. Much, much self-loathing. Hence icon.

Poor dear. *pets him*
