Not to be the most basic person ever but the out for a walk bitch scene is truly a spuffy all-timer. She starts by hitting him. She calls him William. She’s sooo annoyed with him and he’s so pathetic and bad at lying. He’s so weird, dunks on Riley, and leaves her looking utterly baffled. And then you see all the cigarettes and see how long he was hanging out outside. Also she just looks really pretty there.

Imagine living in Sunnydale and watching a smoldering blanket with legs run around town on a regular basis.

It still surprises me that soon after realising she’s invisible Buffy goes and has sex with Spike. She doesn’t even explain the situation to him before she’s on her knees for him. Literally.

I love that Spike stayed for Dawn.

I love that he didn't leave Sunnydale and drive out to somewhere like Arizona, dramatically impale himself on a cactus and bemoan the object of his obsessive feelings who has tragically passed away in a heroic sacrifice. And he could have just walked away forever if she was nothing more than a fixation for him.

But Spike stayed for Dawn because she meant the whole world to Buffy Summers. Buffy in the afterlife can't see what he's doing, can't praise him for what he's doing or give him more mouth kisses as thankyous.

He genuinely cares for Dawn in the way that he's wracked with guilt at failing to save her (ergo forcing Buffy to literally take the leap for her sister), in the way that he's willingly taking Buffy's place as Dawn's protector and albeit not legal guardian, and in the way that he empathizes and cares for Dawn as someone else that he cares for in this world whose name isn't Buffy Summers.
