Actually, my idea was that instead of the gypsies thing, to have the Chinese Slayer's mother curse him. It just sounded cool. One of the things I dislike about some of these re-writes is that they essentially take the Buffy/Angel story and insert Spike/Xander into it without changing anything! So, Xander gets Slayer lines that make no sense...and yes, I really have read that.
I don't normally use a beta, just because nobody I know has the time to read, con/crit and get back to me without it taking forevuh. And since nothing is ruder than having someone bug you when you offered to do them a favor, I generally just skip it. But, if you really want to and you have the time, I wouldn't mind it! :)
