WOw, that's a gorgeous dark Giles fic. And it builds nicely on his core ruthlessness; it's exactly the kind of darkfic I like. Thanks for the link!
I find it much easier to believe in this kind of dark-Giles than straight-up evil Giles. I think it's part of the Buffy-verse magic; pretty much every character has a darkness that can be drawn out and expanded on. So much more satisfying than bashing!
Selfless is one of my favorite episodes in the whole series. And so very foreshaddowy!
