BtVS 2.15-2.19
More about the broken-plates thing from "Surprise":
I don't think broken is exactly right, Joss. More like getting out the good china for the first time and actually using it for yourself and a worthy guest, and then saying "Oh, so THAT's what plates are for!" Because a broken plate is good for nothing, and I certainly hope you don't mean that the same thing is true of women once they actually, er, use the good china. Right?
2.15 "Phases":
• Werewolves! FINALLY. H keeps bugging me about when we get werewolves. Yes! I knew Oz became a werewolf, but I didn't know when.
• Angelus out-testosterones a werewolf! I always did have a weak spot for an alpha male. Mostly because the other guys are too weak to stand up to me properly. Mmm. I'd rather not have him turning innocent people into vampires to send me a message, though
• Willow's wearing a horizontally striped sweater plus overalls again. And her boyfriend's a werewolf. Not a good day for Willow. Or for me.
2.16 "Bewitched, Bothered and Bewildered":
• Oh, no! The Sunnydale Plastics are being mean to Cordy! *smites them*
• AN ACTUAL HEART FOR VALENTINE'S DAY! So romantic. I don't think Spike is going to take well to being out-testosteroned in front of Dru. ANGEL/DRU/SPIKE IS SO GOOD. I mean bad. But in a good way. Er, you know what I mean!
• "Angel nails a puppy to a..." I don't want to know either. Do whatever you want to people, but leave the dogs alone!
• Rat!Buffy? We needed the comic relief, I suppose.
• DRU TOO! He really did drive her crazy? That was priceless!
2.17 "Passion":
• STALKER EX-BOYFRIEND WATCHES BUFFY WHILE SHE SLEEPS AND SKETCHES HER AND LEAVES THE SKETCH IN AN ENVELOPE ON HER PILLOW? THIS IS BADFIC. And I'm lapping it up like cream. *shame*
• Have we ever seen anyone else in the library? *pees self laughing*
• I forgot that Angel had permission to enter Willow's house. Poor fishies!
• NOT BUFFY'S MOM! NO TELLING BUFFY'S MOM THAT YOU DID HER DAUGHTER LIKE LUNCH! *cringe*
• Who knew evil could make a guy so much cooler and hotter at the same time? Well, everyone, I suppose, since it seldom fails. But still, WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH ME? DB appears to be having the time of his life being evil, too.
• If there's anything more fun than watching Buffy and Angel fight, I don't know what it is. Well, I can think of one thing, but I don't know when we're getting more of that (and don't you dare spoil me!).
• When was the last time I handled a floppy disk? I don't even remember when I last had a computer with a floppy drive. Maybe when this episode first came out?
2.18 "Killed by Death"
• First floppies and now this. I just realized how weird it is that no one has a cell phone when Buffy's mom needed to find a phone in the hospital to call Buffy's dad.
• This is some delectably fucked-up stuff going on with Angel coming to the hospital and Xander making him back down. Not that I think he meant to kill Buffy at that point, but he's always up to no good now. Eeeep! Oh, Xander, Buffy's white knight.
• "Tact is just not saying true stuff." And this would be why I love Cordelia. Plus she's being useful this episode.
2.19 "I Only Have Eyes for You":
• "Love is forever" is rather less hot when it's just some random possessed dude with a gun.
• Angel/Dru/Spike continues to fascinate me. The fic from this must be something to behold. It's really time to be getting Spike out of that wheelchair, though. I can't wait to see what happens when he finally does, with all these interesting developments.
• What I thought was starting as evil-relationship-talk time turns into ghost-reenactment after all. OMFG. (Damn you, focus group!) SHE CALLS HIM BITCH! EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE! I can't see that a vampire is going to take any permanent damage from a bullet, but Buffy sure as hell will if she shoots herself in the head. AND HE STOPS HER. Okay, it's the ghost of the teacher in him, but still! Should be interesting when the ghosts leave them.
• Huh. He didn't even have it in him to say something horribly cutting before pushing her violently away and running. Bzuh? Oh, Buffy, so sad. D:
• Shirtless, wet Angel's freaking out to the point of rubbing his skin raw because he has been VIOLATED BY LOVE. Brilliant!
• SPIKE IS BACK, BITCHES. OH, YES. YES YES YES!
Oh, YES.
*giggles dementedly in Dru-like fashion*
ETA: Can't stop watching the end of "I Only Have Eyes for You." OMG.
