// s01e08 // I, robot - you, jane //

this is the 3rd quote I’ve written from this short buffy-giles exchange. 

Buffy: I'm telling you, something is going on. It's not just Willow. Dave, Fritz, they're all wicked jumpy.  Giles: Those boys aren't sparklingly normal as it is. Buffy: Giles, trust me. Giles: I do! I really don't know how to advise you. Things involved with a computer fill me with a childlike terror.

// s01e08 // i, robot - you, jane // . honestly, the scoobies rarely suffer from the usual pains of doing research "the old-fashioned way." they always find the answer quickly, despite having no ctrl+f functionality in their library. somehow, despite the piles of tomes laid open on the many tables, not to mention the cases full of books behind them, they usually manage to pick up just the right book and randomly open to just the right page. so, having that luck, giles *can* fear computers. because he doesn't need them. personally, I'd rather get my facts off the net like Ms. Calendar, 💕 the technopagan 💕 . ++watercolor brush, silver ruby satin ~~iroshizuku ink, kiri-same //apica graph paper notebook

the day is april 28, 1997. buffy is trying to protect her tech-savvy friend from a potential internet predator. she says "e-letter" instead of "email," and it is great. love this episode. can't wait to letter my favorite word: technopagan!

“Is he a good vampire? On a scale of 1-10. 10 being someone who’s killing and maiming every night, 1 being someone who’s... not.” -Willow

//S01E07//angel// omg angel is smokin in this scene and the cliche of having a woman bandage a man is not annoying bc angel is smokin, duh, I already said that part. _______________________________🙏😎 ~~drawn on iPad using @procreate and apple pencil

//S01E07//angel// "...it's obvious what you have to do." -xander. xander's hatred/jealousy of angel get old pretty quick. especially considering how many demons he dates throughout the series. dum little hypocrite. 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄 ~~drawn on iPad using @procreateapp ++brushes by @ianbarnard-blog-blog

taking a break from the schedule and posting this quote from S03E22 when the mayor's ascension causes a TOTAL SOLAR ECLIPSE ZOMG! this is said by my personal favorite character, Wesley Wyndam Price, as he reads from some giant tome. Buffy replies, "An eclipse." ______________________________________ 🌞🌚🌞🌚🌞🌚🌞🌚🌞🌚🌞🌚🌞🌚 written with pencil with printer paper bc I spontaneously decided to write this one out today.

//S01E06//the pack last flutie quote I'll write for this episode. moment of silence for flutie. [ ] lovely. this was a long one i didn't feel like getting too fancy with, so I used my favorite ink and a broad tip fountain pen and tried to draw my letters really straight, takin my time. and right at the end I SMUDGED IT. but I left the smudge in bc it's kinda nice. k bye now! 🍥🍥🍥🍥🍥🍥 __________________________________ ++lamy safari matte black with broad nib ~~lamy ink in coral //tomoe river loose leaf paper

//S01E06//the pack// said by flutie to buffy, about herbert the pig in an attempt to convince everyone lil herbie was a fierce and terrifying mascot. you'd think, on a hellmouth, picking out a scary mascot would be one of the easier tasks for a principal, but flutie did his best, I guess. herbie *was* cute though. sad that he met the same demise as ol flutes. 🐖🐖🐖🐖🐖🐖🐖 _______________________________ ++sharpie water based paint pen in white //paper source brand name card in aubergine. leftover from my wedding! *sidenote* not a good paper/pen combo, FYI. the watery pen made the paper get soggy and crumbly, which is why I photographed this one so far away 😎

//S01E06//the pack// since this is flutie's last ep, I figured I'd do a handful of his lines to pay homage. it's the least he deserves after being devoured by human teens possessed by hyenas. 😓😢🐺 ________________________ ++tombow brush pens, felt tip side! ~~canson XL marker paper

//S01E06//the pack// giles with the sick burn this time! that zookeeper, though. why did no one suspect him. the scoobies are way too trusting considering they live on top of a hellmouth. can't get over the fact that willow did not even for a second question him after showing up and seeing all that facepaint. just glad Giles got a chance to thoroughly shame the dude in the end. and man, he loves those kids, doesn't he ❤️ ________________________________ ++some color pencils I got last Christmas, not sure of the brand! ++stabilo fine tip marker in brown - not a fan of this pen! ~~canson XL marker paper pad

//S01E06//the pack// "comeon, angel pushes your buttons, you know he does." -willow "I suppose some girls might find him good-looking.........if they have eyes..... alright, he's a honey." -buffy I love every scene at the bronze so much! I wish I went clubbing as a teen... and brought my homework to the club... oh, Sunnydale. 📚🍻 _____________________________________ ++gelly roll moonlight pens! ❤️ ~~field notes, sweet tooth edition (my favorite field notes)

this is buffy's first line of the episode and I just love the whole exchange. she's responding to the bullies who see her alone and say sarcastically, "oh look, it's buffy and all her friends." and THEN they say, "don't you wonder why nobody cool wants to hang with you?" and she replies, "just thankful." SICK BURNS right from the start. ❤️❤️ _____________________________________
