My patheticness cannot be stopped.
They even slowly rub hands as he straightens out the books, his fingers stretching for that extra long contact. OH MY GOD! THESE TWO! I... GAH! I CAN'T STOP! Also, after reading the AMAZING ship manifesto for them, I am now convinced that their romance is completely canon (and sadly a little one-sided) and I am in fact NOT insane for shipping them. Oh yes. Also, after reading that I am now SO GLAD that I missed the show in the days when the fandom was active, because I have too often been in fights about the age difference issue with just about all of my ships and have become bitter towards certain factions because of it. Luckily this manifesto presents all the arguments with the exact same answers that I would give (only, they do it much more articulately than I could ever attempt). So, yeah, that manifesto rocked my world and it has me looking even closer at them than I was before. Also, since I'm not in fight mode, and the show is already over, it enables me to enjoy all the ships without any venom. Not that I exactly get venomous about ships, but man it bugs me when people are so close-minded to the unconventional pairings. Anyway, Giles/Buffy is awesome. Really, really awesome. And man am I convinced that Giles is madly in love with Buffy and battling his feelings. And I love whenever Buffy gets jealous of his attention being on other women. Ooooh, I love them. Also, my favorite ep so far is The Dark Age. Not only was it completely about Giles, but in the end it was all about the Buffy/Giles trust. When the woman Giles thought he loved (or rather, saw a future with) abandoned him because of his past (and really, I don't blame her, I'd do the same had I been possessed by a demon that my boyfriend created), Buffy was there for him. She forgave him for lying to her, and in the end her trust in him wasn't damaged one bit, whereas Jenny couldn't trust him anymore because he wasn't the man she thought he was. Buffy knows that Giles is still Giles, nothing will ever change that for her. &hearts Oh man, I can't believe how invested I'm getting. Expect more patheticness like the picture above, because I'm sure more will be coming.
In other shipping news,
Also, you know how I posted that pic of Morgana earlier? I just now noticed that she's wearing gloves exactly like Uther's. We've never actually seen Uther's hands without gloves, have we? Now I'm having weird thoughts about kinky glove sex... *clears throat* Anyway, it would rock my world if she stole Uther's clothes. Obviously the armor isn't his, and the gloves are too small to be Uther's, but a girl can dream, right? Right?
*sigh*
I am pathetic.
