Welcome to the Buffy fan page ever

hello tumblr :D I'm an 18 year old girl from Canada studying science (and possibly also creative writing). I have a black cat named Max who is my baby, and I love all other kinds of animals too, especially horses. I love goth music and all things generally strange and creepy (my spooky credentials are that I was born on Halloween)

I've been a fan of Buffy for 4 years, and I made this blog mainly so I can finally have somewhere to dump all my thoughts about BtVS :D might also post about other things too, but I think this will mostly be my Buffy infatuation corner (spoiler warning if you haven't finished the show)

I'm a spuffy shipper, a Xander hater, and the biggest Buffy defender you will ever meet

One of the times that I really feel for Faith is when she had to leave behind her knife that the mayor gifted her after killing that spider demon thing. Like there goes your special gift from your evil adopted father. Poor girl.

what do you mean Buffy's never killed Spike? what do you mean he was obnoxious and creepy for years and backstabbed her and her friends multiple times and she still let him live? what do you mean she kept him around, never banned him from the town even after he was no longer in danger to be experimented on and she owned him nothing? what do you mean he confessed her his twisted vampire version of love and she still didn't kill him even though she's already lived through a very traumatic situation of psychosexual vampire obsession? what do you mean she killed for the safety of her loved ones the first man she's ever loved but she never got around to kill this supposedly unimportant bug on her front window?

There are people who claim Spike didn’t actually love Buffy - “he was obsessed with her” “he just wanted to get in her pants” “it was lust” …

And I feel like part of the reason people think that is maybe they don’t actually love Buffy? Like really love her?

I don’t know if I’m explaining this right … Having watched the show from the beginning, grown up and fought and cried and suffered and laughed and loved and lost along with Buffy, seen how beautiful and funny and tough and vulnerable and amazing she is as a warrior and as a person … why wouldn’t Spike fall in love with her? Like, it seems impossible not to love her if you really see her.

He gets it wrong so many times, part of the charm and hilarity and heartbreak of especially s5 is him continuously trying and failing to do human behaviour and courtship after 120+ years of doing it the demon way. And then he learns, little by little, fails again and tries again. He’s slowly unearthing more of William.

But of course Spike falls in love with Buffy. She’s effulgent as fuck.

spike ‘love’s bitch / fool for love’ and buffy ‘you love with all of your soul it’s brighter than the fire’… the two characters with the greatest capacity for love… loving each other? well that’s just neat

Buffy fans without father figures...how you doing tonight?

[thebuffyfanever]

I think the peak of my life was being graded on my knowledge of a Buffy episode. It actually will never get better than that.

[thebuffyfanever]

i think it's truly tragic that buffy decor isn't easy to find because i would make this new place a shrine to her if i could

[thebuffyfanever]

just moved out and i'm very much considering if i should get a really old tv with a vhs player and then try to get all the seasons of buffy on vhs so i can watch it and pretend it isn't 2026

season 4 rewrite where everything is the same except buffy and spike actually got married in something blue so on top of everting else buffy is dealing with a drawn out divorce because spike has the audacity to ask for alimony

[femmedefandom]

the prevalence of the “6 7” usage today is because the children crave the season six episode seven masterpiece that is “once more with feeling”

Sometimes I think about Tabula Rasa and yeah, it was a hilarious episode and one of my favourites and it had the hottest kiss of the show, but it also showed us something interesting about Spike.

Their memories were wiped clean, but everyone pretty much retained their core personalities. Spike was goofy and snarky, he got on with Buffy/Joan right away and felt at home fighting by her side. But there was zero "monstrosity" there, he showed no bloodlust, no violence, didn't even know he was a vampire until they got in a fight and he vamped out out of reflex. He had no urge to bite Buffy/Joan. He thought he had a soul.

There were no memories to impact his perception of self. I just think it's pretty remarkable how human Spike appears and feels, even when all of his memories are taken away. Tabula Rasa is who he is at his core, and it's so very ... William.
