Orbital Implant

Orbital Implantby Red Wolf

Xander looked in the mirror. It freaked him out, seeing two eyes looking back at him.

When he'd filed his request with the Council, he'd expected to get a glass eye. Something like Columbo, that he could take out and leave in people's drinks for a laugh. He hadn't reckoned with Giles pushing for cutting edge technology.

The damn thing looked and moved just like his real eye. Strange, but a good strange. He no longer felt like a player benched on account of injury and people didn't treat him like an invalid any more. He owed Giles big time.

Yay! Xander got another eye! That is a very happy thought: thanks! :) — via LiveJournal — posted by cady at 20.07.2004 17:22 AEST | #

There's some pretty cool info around on prosthetics eyes. And doesn't take into account that eye transplant surgery is now a reality — via LiveJournal — posted by Red Wolf at 20.07.2004 17:22 AEST | #

Hmm... I see the idea matured and became a little plot bunny. Really well done, love how Giles worries enough to try his best for his 'kids' — via LiveJournal — posted by Leni at 20.07.2004 17:24 AEST | #

Not so much a plot bunny as a response to the challenge, just seemed to fit — via LiveJournal — posted by Red Wolf at 20.07.2004 17:25 AEST | #

I always hoped Xander did get something like this done so I loved this — via LiveJournal — posted by Jane Davitt at 20.07.2004 17:25 AEST | #

I think he would have secretly liked the glass eye. Who wouldn't like to be able to take their eye out for their own amusement? Maybe that's just me — via LiveJournal — posted by Red Wolf at 20.07.2004 17:26 AEST | #

I've commented on Jossverse Drabbles, but I just wanted to tell you that this is really great.

Also, I've friended you. I love your writing syle and of course, I love your Spawn! — via LiveJournal — posted by Jessica at 20.07.2004 17:33 AEST | #

Many thanks. Just found Spawny goodness on your LJ. Woohoo! — via LiveJournal — posted by Red Wolf at 20.07.2004 17:33 AEST | #

I'm new to writing fan fiction, but what can I say, Spawn inspires me! — via LiveJournal — posted by Jessica at 20.07.2004 17:34 AEST | #

Anything that inspires is good.

Why not drop by Television Show Based Drabbles and Word of the Day 100 for more drabble challenges. And 15 Minute Ficlets for an open fandom / original challenge — via LiveJournal — posted by Red Wolf at 20.07.2004 17:35 AEST | #

Hey! came over to sniff around your pack a bit ;) (i just noticed we both have that listed as our name for our 'friends page'!) Love this little snippet... i'm really rusty when it comes to some of your fandoms, but i'm loving how you write, and how you churn out these little snippets of scenes, with always great writing style and witty points to make — they all seem so vivid! Keep churning... grrr — via LiveJournal — posted by Pheral at 23.07.2004 14:25 AEST | #

Not all of my stuff is fanfic, I write original fiction too, which may be why you don't recognise some of it. It doesn't help that I never disclaimer or label anything in my LJ either.

Pleased that you've enjoyed my writing — via LiveJournal — posted by Red Wolf at 23.07.2004 14:26 AEST | #

Aha, that would explain some of it. I think I'm just going to enjoy reading every post and letting it flow over me, I can do then when the writing is good, it almost doesn't matter that you don't know the universe, you know? — via LiveJournal — posted by Pheral at 23.07.2004 14:28 AEST | #

WooHoo!!!!!! The Xan-Man got his eye replaced! He kinda looked funny with the eye-patch don't ya think? Good job. — posted by Lucifer's Daughter at 25.01.2005 17:53 AEST | #

This has to be the nicest you've ever been to Xander. ::faints:: — via LiveJournal — posted by IrishVampire13 at 14.08.2005 15:00 AEST | #

You may well be right about that. I must have been having an off day — via LiveJournal — posted by Red Wolf at 14.08.2005 15:01 AEST | #

Pod people, perhaps. :D — via LiveJournal — posted by IrishVampire13 at 14.08.2005 15:01 AEST | #
