Anya leaned into the hug with a sad smile. She liked it when he got protective, she really did. It was odd, but even with Xander being human, he made her feel safer. "These guys probably won't care how long I've been human. Plus the witchcraft." She put on a brighter smile. "But if you're here, then I feel better."
She had to smirk at the way Xander still used the nickname for the ex Sith. "Does Jacen know those are in the rules," she asked, a more relaxed, playful tone entering her voice.
