NO BUT LISTEN OKAY LISTEN. Two of the biggest burdens Buffy had, the two things that truly kept her trapped, that doomed her to a life of endless pain and ultimately death…was her being the only chosen one and the Hellmouth. She couldn’t escape her calling, and she couldn’t leave the Hellmouth. But then came the scythe…the Slayer’s scythe that is the reason they could awake all the other slayers. The reason Buffy is truly no longer the only chosen one. No longer alone in her fight. And she says she was able to get it because Spike gave her the strength to go claim it. Because he helped her. Because he believed in her. And then there’s the Hellmouth, the Hellmouth that Spike destroyed, that he closed. That he stood on top of refused to leave until the job was done, even at the cost of his life.
ITS YOUR WORLD UP THERE. NOW GO!
Don’t you see? Don’t you get it? Buffy’s free. Buffy’s not trapped anymore. All the responsibility isn’t solely on her anymore. She can live her life and not have to endlessly guard the gates of hell. She can live in the world now. Go and see the world and what it has to offer.
He loved her so much, he gave her the world, even if he wasn’t going to be apart of it
