New Buffy fan (please be nice to me) | She/her | Sometimes I draw things

[unwilling-brainrot]

Listen, I watched the seven seasons of Buffy over the span of two weeks and I've been trying not to spoil my friends by not reblogging anything Buffy related for almost a month now but the brainrot it's so big I needed somewhere to scream about it.

I even got back into drawing because of this show

[song-in-my-head]

Any time. Any iteration

Yes Buffy definitely would have fallen for our soppy poet William. Look at her in s4 with Eddie. He's shy and awkward and loves to read. And he was her first friend starting college. I saw some discussion on whether she would fall for william and she absolutely would. He would have fit in so well into the scoobies too *. *.

the way all Spike's emotions are always on his face and you can read them really well. the way Buffy almost always looks at him with this puzzled but mostly unreadable expression. and he can't understand what she's thinking at the moment, and we as audience can't pinpoint it either to the point that lots of her moments of sincerity towards him can come as a surprise. the way his heart is always on his sleeve, but she still looks at him as if at all times she is deciding is he mad or endearing or full of shit. the way she just let him talk or look and there's clearly the whole internal debate inside her head that we never got a scoop on it except that one dream in dead thing and then in s7 she finally starts to verbally articulate her feelings and it feels wild.

I will never agree with the take that Buffy should have ended with season 5.

I love the gift as a season finale but if the show were to have ended there I honestly think I would have ended up hating the show in retrospect.

Like I’m sorry but I don’t think that the series should have ended with Buffy killing herself and becoming yet just another dead slayer, another victim of the predatory cycle she’s fought so so hard against. She’s a young girl who’s been exploited, forced to save the world over and over and over again, and the only way it can end is with her death? She’s not allowed to live a normal life? Her only escape from the cruelty of her circumstances is to kill herself?

I’m sorry I hate it.

I just love the way she’s finally able to break the cycle in the series finale. The slayers are no longer beholden to the whims of the Watcher’s council, the hellmouth is gone, she has others who understand what its like to be the a slayer, and it’s no longer her burden to shoulder alone anymore.

I think every single awful part of seasons 6 and 7 were worth that last shot with that look of relief washing over Buffy as she realizes it’s not all on her anymore.

She’s punning and he’s cringing (fondly) over her butchering of the English language

I need a fucking minute.

Rest in piece Anthony. You were a foundational part of so many of our youths, and you were a phenomenal performer. You will be missed.

spike being in love with buffy is something amazing in and of itself.

the fact that what he loves about her -- her kindness and strength, her goodness as the slayer and commitment to helping the innocent -- is what makes her good is so telling of who spike really is at his core.

he's in love with her because she's not evil -- because of this great love and compassion she has for everyone.

he loves her for being human.

and i think that the fact that a soulless spike (still in the depths of his evilness in s2) could and would fall in love with these characteristics shows what he truly admires in a person, especially someone he would give his heart to.

however twisted and vampirish spike's love for buffy is, it's crux is buffy being a good person and spike loving her because of it.

Also the fact that Spike, for not even one moment, seems to consider the idea of turning Buffy into a vampire speaks volumes about what it is in her he finds appealing. It’s not just her looks, he doesn’t want a vampirized Buffy. He wants her exactly how she is.

For how obviously inappropriate and invasive the buffybot was to make, the “extras” he had Warren include are telling; she recognizes herself as “very pretty”, she goes on patrols, she has a database that recognizes all her friends and family. He likes Buffy as a righteous Slayer, he likes that she fights demons, that she’s confident in herself.

BTVS was soooooo crazy because joss whedon was like "I'm going to write an incel revenge fantasy where I turn the leather wearing bad boy I was jealous of in high school into a loser cuck! I'm going to literally paralyze him from the waist down so his dick doesn't work and then make him watch his girlfriend make out with a guy taller than him and call that guy daddy in front of him! I'm going to write a million scenes of him getting beat up by girls and even show him having to be rescued by a girl in a princess carry and another scene where he gets tortured by a girl and have mad scientists metaphorically castrate him on a lab table and I'll write a weirdly homoerotic scene in which the boyfriend of the woman he's in love with breaks into his home and shoves him against a wall and impales him with a plastic phallic object" and james marsters was like "sounds hot I can't wait to play this character I'm going to make him look slutty and turned on the entire time" and five million teen girls gays and theys in the viewing audience had the weirdest possible sexual awakening

''I can be alone with you here'' actually means just as much, if not more, than ''I love you'' and I will die on this hill clutching spuffy to my chest
