Post hoc, ergo propter hoc. Xander/Anya
inspired by the reverse buffy tribute challenge. kind of like crack, actually, i may do more. *apologizes to friends list in advance*
It happened because it was meant to happen. Any other argument would be a logical fallacy. "Post hoc, ergo propter hoc", Anya would have said, enunciating each word carefully, prompting him to wonder just how much she had learned in her thousand years on earth.
And then to realize how little he knew her.
He didn't leave because of the old man, because of what he had shown, the darkness of their future. He had known already. History repeats itself if you're not looking out for it, but Xander Harris had finally opened his eyes.
He would have left anyway.
