Break It All (Build Something New)

Previously on and by that i mean this is a prequel that came outta nowhere: All-American Hero (and I could've sworn I did a different one which will take forever to find augh will update if I can find it i only have myself to blame tagging wise) found it!  that was older than I thought Arrangements
Anything you think might be a Jojo's Steel Ball Run reference or a more obvious Batman reference probably is.  (SBR references aren't actually in-universe, as it isn't published until 2004 and this is one of the fics where I'm actually adhering to real-world timelines, weird as that is)
no one tell him that his canon counterpart survives the series intact by still recklessly throwing himself into situations it's a speculation he's using to cope

Main Points:
Buffy the Vampire Slayer (Oracle!Xan)
Summary: Xander refuses to take this lying down (even if, technically, he can't actually stand anymore).
Word Count: 855
Rating: Teen
Warnings: This is yet another Angelus permanently disables Xander fic, so warning for that, though it occurs offscreen in this one.  Light abuse mentions (because of his father).  Toxic masculinity, and the slow overcoming of it.
