Anyone else familiar with this Xander vid? It's by Laura Shapiro and it's very good. It's framed by the Anya/Xander relationship, and shows Xander with She-Mantis, Fake Ampata, Buffy, Willow, Cordy, and Faith before going back to Anya. Extremely well-done.

It starts off by one of the shortest compilation of A/X that you could do: the first "let's have sex" moment, him asking her to marry him (with the slap), Anya at the wedding (before the sad parts), then moves to Xander alone in his apartment.

There's a great cut there (One day I will build a fountain, drink and never grow old) with Xander raising a beer to his lips (Entropy) - cut to his dad drinking (Hell's Bells) - back to Xander. There's a great bit (find your sickness on my lips) that quickly moves through She-Mantis (seducing), Fake Ampata (about to kiss: the golden moment), Faith (actually kissing), and Buffy (that last teasing bit at the end of the sexy dance) in between the Anya stuff (with is also very good).
I do, in fact, go over practically everything in the song. )

Very well done. It's nice to see all of Xander's relationships just... quickly visually described. And it always makes me want to give Xander a huge hug.
