I give you a little bit of everything...
This will be the most scattered, random post ever.
1. Folks, buffyversetop5 will be open in two weeks. If you haven't already, friend the comm and enjoy the awesome recs that will come from it. If you've found yourself some uber-cool Buffy stuff from 2009, share your own Top 5 rec lists. Fanfic, meta, fanart, whatever. Anything about Buffy made in 2009 is free game. Do it!
2. I'm so freaking excited because Sinister Attraction is devirused and back online! Guys, this was the first site I ever went to for Buffy fanfic. In fact this is the first Buffy fic I ever read. And now I feel an urge to reread. It's all Spuffy fanfics, so my fellow Spuffies, go read!
3. I was updating my own meta master list. Doing so always reminds me that I talk far too much. Anyway, I was reminded of my own favoritest meta I've ever ever done. Just a Girl. I ♥ Buffy.
4. On the rewatch front, I'm warming up to Caleb this time round. Yeah, he's over-the-top and subtle as an anvil filled with gunpowder, but he's supposed to be Patriarchy/Misogynist Concentrate. So it kinda makes sense that he's over-the-top. Plus, we get such great exchanges!
The First/Buffy: All these girls...they followed you willingly. You tricked them.
Caleb: I only told them the truth. As for following, well, that seems to be what they do best.
Cause, see, under the patriarchy women are socialized into behaviors and beliefs that ultimately keep them under the thumb of the patriarchy. Self perpetuating system and all.
5. Also, Faith's part in S7 makes a lot more sense once you've seen her episodes on AtS.
