Every now and then when I rewatch Buffy, one of my most favourite thing to do is to reanalyse Bangel scenes frame by frame. More often than not, I find new angles or new meanings that I've missed despite the 982762836595th time watching it. Today, I found these from Amends. This is one of my favourite episodes and I love that it's the first time (perhaps only time?) we actually see them do the deed. It was a lusty and beautiful scene but it also made me wonder if only there was no curse and they could fulfill their sexual desires..oh what a treat that would be!..
The way his fingers tangled deep into her hair while drawing her body tight against his..the way his arm locked around her waist, crushing the distance between them. You can feel his hunger for her in that kiss—she eventually has to break away just to catch her breath, while Angel, needing none, instantly claims the curve of her jaw. Their passion translates so perfectly in this scene; the intimacy is just on another level. Unmatched!
