There's not much I don't love about the Buffyverse. And a lot of the things I don't like, I love that I don't like. (The majority of Angel's actions, for example ( Read more... )

I am happy that you are happy. I am happy that Spike is doing what he's doing, but I would be happier if Dawn remembered him. However, Spike's love for Dawn is the point here, not vice versa. Spike as caretaker is one of the facets of his character that is sometimes overlooked for the more flashy/fighty/sexy/smoking aspects. In the Buffy comics, it's up front and I like that.

Go you for calling the Dawn plot. You never know what possibility (among thousands) that the comics writers will seize on.

I'm happy that I'm happy, too.

Angel and Faith has been really strong all season, while Buffy has been lagging a little in my view. I'm really happy to be excited for Buffy for once, even if it's just over the smaller things.

Spike's caretaker instinct is definitely what sealed him as my favourite character. He was awesome in those first three or so minutes after ploughing down the "Welcome to Sunnydale" sign, but as soon as he started interacting with Drusilla, I realised he was awesome in italics.

Also, that icon is adorable.

Spike & Dawn is my fave ship. I've not read the comics. I'm glad to hear that get to reconcile. :D

Well, that somewhat remains to be seen, from Dawn's side anyway, but even small steps in the right direction are pleasing.

I will leave that discovery to you, cos I can't see myself getting into the comics anytime soon.

I'm sure I will enjoy your post about it, though. I do like your writing style. :D
