Joss Whedon and Ian Fleming are the geniuses behind these characters. I'm just borrowing them for a little while, so please don't sue me!
You Only Live Thrice
Chapter 3

"Angelo De Luca is the Immortal?"
"Yes."
"And the Immortal is Angelo De Luca?"
"Yes," Buffy replied. "He practically owns Rome. That's why I had to get out of there. I couldn't trust anyone."
All Giles could do was sigh. This situation seemed to be getting even worse by the minute.
"Giles, I know I've screwed up. Why do I always fall for the wrong guy?"
Giles cleaned his glasses for the fourth time since they sat down. Here she was again, looking to him to be a father with advice. Not that he didn't like it...
"Because you're human," he smiled softly.
"Well, I may be human, but it seems every guy I'm attracted to isn't!"
With a cough, Giles said, "Riley was human."
Buffy stared at him for a moment before laughing.
"That was a fluke," she finally said. "Most of the time, I'm liking the undead guy from the Dark Side."
Giles made a smirk.
"Oh god, I just make a Star Wars reference. I need to stop talking to Andrew on the phone..."
"Buffy," Giles asked, thinking back to their situation. "What exactly is the Immortal? Is he a demon?"
"Not exactly..."
"Vampire?"
"Of course not."
"Warlock?"
Buffy mumbled something.
"What?"
She said something, but he couldn't make it out.
"Just tell me, Buffy!"
"He's a freakin' god, all right?"
"Bloody. Hell."
"Bloody hell!" was James Bond's response when Giles informed him of Angelo De Luca's identity.
"My thoughts exactly," Giles replied as he had a sip of tea in his office. Andrew was thankfully not in that morning, and being a Sunday, the shop wouldn't open until noon. So he didn't mind leaving the office door unlocked as he talked on the phone.
"What else does your friend know?"
Should he tell him about her romantic involvement? No, too personal, and who knew if someone was listening in. But then again, maybe MI6 could provide extra protection...
"Actually, James, my friend had a relationship with De Luca."
"Sexual relationship?"
"I didn't ask, but the fact that she's pregnant is all the answer I need."
"Pregnant?" Bond suddenly said, sounding worried. "With De Luca's child? Rupert, do you know what this means?"
Giles had no idea.
"This is not good, Rupert. Not good at all. You should probably read your bloody prophecy books to find out why."
"What the hell are you getting at?"
"I've studied some materials relating to your field of expertise. Your friend's a Slayer, right? Well, the child of a Slayer and a god is not a good thing."
Giles grabbed a book off the shelf and began scanning its pages. He stopped on one and quickly read through its paragraphs.
"Oh no," Giles said. "Not another apocalypse..."
