The Dream

Staring down at this magic rulebook Xander was struck by the fact that he now had a way to live the dream... his dream of dreams... the dream of being with Buffy. This was a way for him to move past his man of la mancha, tilting at windmills, fruitless trying. With just a few strokes of his pencil he could be that guy. The guy who got to go home to Buffy Summers at the end of the day.

It's not like he had anyone. Cordelia had just kicked him to the curb last night during the Valentine's dance. And Buffy certainly didn't have anyone what with DeadBoy being all evil now. So what was to stop them from being together really? Nothing, that's what. Well, except for Buffy not wanting him. But th Rulebook could change that.

So Xander had to ask himself, was he okay with taking Buffy's free will away and mind controlling her into being with him as Buffy might like him but she did not like like him. Always stuck in the friend zone, that was him, Captain Friendzone. But with the rulebook and just a few words written down he could change Buffy's mind about how she saw him. From friend to boyfriend with the stroke of a pen. And all he had to do was mind control one of his closest friends... Could he live with himself if he did that?

Being an old school Claremont X-men fan he might have a few mind control fantasies he wanted to see play out. Just not as the guy doing the mind controlling. Well, if he was honest with himself, not always as the guy doing the mind controlling. Maybe sometimes the idea of being obeyed completely was something he wanted. There was at least as fifty fifty split between controlling and being controlled.

Looking around the coffee shop and the numerous foxy ladies that were about he also wasn't sure he wanted to limit himself to just one woman.

Not that being with more than one woman would be a problem for him with the magic rulebook allowing him to write exceptions to the rules for himself. Monogamy might be fine for some but for Xander the mighty Layer? It wouldn't take much to write a rule in the book that allowed the Layer to fuck around blame free.

So what would give him the best out come? What made Buffy want him without him just writing down Buffy wants and needs Xander? While also allowing him to be free to fuck whoever he wanted? And somehow allow him not to feel guilty about the whole mind control situation... he could just take his own sense of guilt away... but that would turn him into a sociopath... ?psychopath...? one or the other he forgot which was which. Either way he wanted to avoid that as that would be bad.

Looking over his rules all Xander had was just the bare facts about being the Layer. Nothing was defined. Just that the Layer was a mystical big dick stud in a world filled with sexy ladies. And he was the Layer.

So how to turn that into Buffy loving him without mind controlling her into dating him?

So.... he had written the Layer rule down because he was mocking the Slayer speech Buffy and Giles has talked about, the One girl in all the world yaddah yaddah. So it would make sense that the Slayer and the Layer were interlinked. Mythologically speaking. One girl and one guy? Makes perfect sense that they would be made for each other. So how to write that down in a way that there was no wiggle room in his rule? Be specific?

OLD RULE: The Slayer and The Layer are destined lovers. Only the Layer can satisfy the Slayer's voracious sexual needs. When a Layer is near a Slayer, a Slayer will experiences **** attraction to the Layer and an increase in sexual need. The Slayer will imagine the many various ways the Layer could make love to her. Such thoughts will cause the Slayer to exhibit signs of arousal by blushing or flushing of the cheeks, hard nipples, swelling in the genitals alongside excessive production of the vagina's natural sexual lubricant.

Xander stared at what he had just written. That was probably the most stupid way to write getting horny and wet he had ever read. But... But it was certainly not vague. He nodded his head. It was very specific. No mistaking the signs for something else. Buffy would see him and would be unable to deny that he caused her pussy to get wet as she thought about all the ways that he could fuck her. Right, that was that, Buffy wouldn't be able to hold out too long. She'd have to admit that she wanted him.

And then it was on like Donkey Kong. Xander leaned back in his chair and smiled. There was no way that this could go wrong for him.

Xander sat up straight. There was no way he was going to taunt Murphy's Law like that. He immediately tried to brainstorm ideas for what could go wrong. He put his face in his hands. There were way- Waaaaaaay - to many ways for this to go wrong. So he needed a way for Buffy to know that what was happening to her was normal and okay and not something to freak out about and try to kill him over.

Now how was he going to get that across? Who would Buffy go to when suddenly out of nowhere she felt like fucking him? She'd suspect mystical fuckery so she'd go to Giles to find out why.

Xander almost slapped himself in the face, "Duh."

OLD RULE: The Watcher's Council is always on the look out for the emergence of a Layer. Every Watcher is trained to spot the signs of a Layer and the magic spell necessary to check if a man is actually the Layer. A trained female Watcher of appropriate age is to be dispatched to wherever a Layer is found and is responsible for the Layer's housing, upkeep, health, well being and monitoring of the Layer's sex life. Should a Slayer not be available the Watcher is to begin a sexual relationship with the Layer to sate his basic sexual needs and to train and refine his gifts.

OLD RULE: When a Slayer is active as the same time as a Layer the Watcher's Council will attempt to pair the Slayer with the Layer. A Slayer that is in a relationship with a Layer has historically been a happier more effective, more productive Slayer.

Xander smirked as he finished writing that. That would take care of Buffy thinking something bad was happening. She'd still think it was wrong and probably fight against it because Slayer bad and the whole I hate being the Slayer blah, blah, blah drama. But while that was going on he'd have a pretty young Watcher Woman come take care of him. In more ways than one. He'd written in housing so that he'd finally get out from under his drunken parents. And if he so happened to like the Watcher Woman than why wouldn't he make use of her skills as a trainer so he could hone his sex skills.

And... And that gave him an idea. Thanks to him this was a rare moment in time where there were two Slayers currently operating. Given the way Kendra did everything her Watcher told her to do. Would she do him if her Watcher told her to?

NEW RULE: There is a new faction within the Watcher's Council that wants to harness the power of the Layer. The origin of the Layer is unknown and how the power passes from Layer to Layer is a mystery. In an attempt to see if the gift is passed from father to son this faction is hoping to breed the Layer with as many women as possible to see if any offspring will be mystically enhanced. The ultimate goal is to see the Layer breed with the Slayer in the hopes of siring a child with the powers of both parents. To maximize the chances of such offspring this faction is willing to send female Watchers, Slayers, Potential Slayers and the Mother's of Potential Slayers to be fucked by the Layer.

Xander tapped his pencil on the Rulebook. What to write next?
