Btvstuff

18 she/her

[fang3d4]

Your reminder that at 40+ years old James Marsters:

Dated a 19 and FRESHLY 18 year old

went on to marry said freshly 18 year old a few years later (She was still in HIGH SCHOOL when they started dating.)

Wrote the creepiest song ever about 17-18 year old Michelle Trachtenberg (Dawn,) No, its not just a rejection song if you use lyrics like: "So little girl you'd better stay set/You play with fire when you get too wet," "One baby, two, maybe three more years/You'll be a full grown baby, havin' all your curves." No one writes that about someone they arent attracted to, calling her 'dangerous' might as well be calling her jailbait.

Btvs is my fave show, and I love spike, but this is not a man I support, this is a pattern of behaviour towards barley legal girls, and if you dont find it creepy idk what to say.

So I’ve always thought that Forrest had a crush on Riley and that’s why he hated Buffy so much.

[pelorsdyke]

i love when buffy gets to be a little bit of a bitch. in fact i think she should get to misread the room and make a snide little comment 1000% more

[thatonewiththemessycurls]

watching Buffy the vampire slayer is a pipeline to looking to buy a leather jacket

[just-about-nothing]

xander's right and then he's not. it's literally almost divided in half. you don't issue ultimatums to your partner unless you're ready for a breakup. buffy not handling an ultimatum is fine!! she went through a huge shock and betrayal, one analogous to finding out he was visiting the brothel every night. except with more evil i guess. leave her alone.

also riley is LITERALLY the rebound guy. that's his purpose. to be a rebound guy. spike's right and it's a fundamental misread of buffy to presume otherwise. sure he's once in a lifetime guy for some folks but not for buffy. she doesn't need a dude like him. i said this back in s4 but he's her white picket fence fantasy. he's boring and safe and doesn't push her to grow because he can't keep up with who she is right now.

I lowkey wish Angel showed up in Sunnydale in something blue instead of pangs. Him looking through the window and just seeing spike proposing to buffy. The utter bewilderment would be pure comedy

[aphony-cree]

When Willow saw Angel in Pangs the first thing she said was "You're evil again!" If that had happened in Something Blue then the spell would have kicked in and he would have turned evil. So we'd have gotten Angelus chained in the bathtub while Spike and Buffy make out next to it

oh my god you should’ve been in the writers room fr

buffy is braver than me cause if spike came up to me looking like a bruised and beaten wet cat of a man, i’m getting the strap out

[mybloodyvampire]

Watching Spike at Buffy's party in Older and Far Away and thinking about when characters act all nympho because it's easier to act like you just want sex instead of love or attention. Spike's skulking about and pestering her like he's desperate for a quick shag under the stairs and like I'm sure he genuinely is lol and wants a shot of the electric back massager BUT I think bigger picture he'd just looove her to like acknowledge their situation even in the shadowy vicinity of others. Like it'd make it so much more real for him. Sneaking around is hot and all but I feel like he's also playing up sex crazed machismo in this ep because he wants to matter and get attention and properly exist in her life. He does this in general in s6 of course to get intimacy and I think that's also interesting in terms of how things sadly culminate in this season

What are y’all’s thoughts on Anya’s age?

She was put in a teenage body with teenage hormones, she counts as a teen

She counts as her human age before she became a vengeance demon (20)

She counts as 1000+ years old since she still has all those memories

Anya's age is complicated from my perspective. She'd been a vengeance demon for thousands of years so she has thousands of years of life experience but *as a vegence demon*. She's forgotten a lot of human life, especially in the modern day, which makes her come off as juvenile but she's definitely an adult.

[fang3d4]

Yeah, it’s really complicated and it’s not as easy to pin down. I was mostly curious how people view Xanya vs Bangel in terms of supernatural weird age gaps. The difference with Anya to me is that her body and brain are physically 17 or 18 or whatever, so the lense she experiences life through is that of a teen, vs angel who to me is 26 since that’s the age his body stayed. But I guess if you viewed angel as 200 or whatever it is, you’d probably view Anya as 1000 too?

Is Buffy really in a mental institution and the world in BTVS and ATS is just in her head, as is shown in "Normal, Again"?

Yes

No

both? Like I think the ward was real bc of the zoom out at the end, but I don’t think Sunnydale is fake. I think they’re just different dimensions. Wishverse, a world without shrimp, ect ect.

[cemetryangel-deactivated2026022]

spuffy is a straight ship for gay people

[ddeck]

at least there's always the Character
