List of Lists challenge (Giles, G)

Set in mid- to late November of season 3

Remembered Items Bid During an Apparently Drunken but Lucid Game of High Stakes Verbal "Trivia Poker," as Overheard During Observance of the Leonid Meteor Showers, High Atop Skyline Boulevard in the Hills of Oakland, California

The trouble was, he could actually obtain at least half of what he'd bid. Too drunk to stay strictly in the realms of imaginary or lost items, yet not drunk enough for anyone to forget precisely what had transpired. And there was little chance that Ethan wouldn't hold him precisely to his word. "Chicken, Ripper?" he'd inquire smoothly. "Because a unicorn's horn could be frightfully handy in the near future." No one had mentioned that Ethan would be there, when he'd promised a proper visit after dropping by so hastily in September. But he knows he would have gone anyway.
