so in my head, the 'pre-story' goes like this: the scoobies fight the First Evil. during the fight, xan acquires all his current injuries, including the broken arm. his eye was from a previous battle - if this seems off for buffy cannon, that's because i haven't, to date, seen past the end of season 5. i didn't even realize xan *had* a broken arm at some point, i put it in as a result of the scoobies' final battle. if that isn't clear, then in the beta process, i'll need to go back and see if i can make it more explicit.
re: typos - those first two are typos, yes, are typos, and thanks for catching them. sometimes my mind goes so fast my fingers can't keep up.
the third one - 'more'n oncet' - is an attempt at dialect, but if too many people complain about (which would indicate it sounds out of character for Nathan), i'll go ahead and change it.
finally, thank you so much for your comments! i'm doing some research on this story right now, and hope to complete it by the end of the year. don't hold me to that, but i've decided to work primarily on this story this year. so...
