BtVS 7.05-7.07
7.05 "Selfless":
• So Anya wasn't always afraid of rabbits and she used to be a Communist? Heh.
• They didn't make us wait long for Spike this time. Not the real Buffy, to no one's surprise. The real one is a believer in the tough love. She is helping him, just not as sweetly as the Buffy in his head. He needs to leave the evil basement but he doesn't have anywhere else to go. *wibbles*
• Xander, you thoughtless, hypocritical ass. I remember Angel and what Buffy had to do, even if you don't.
7.06 "Him":
• Spike and Xander, roommates again? This should be good, and by good I mean I want to watch them suffer.
• "It's not coddling. Now go to your closet." *snort*
• Yeah, I don't think pity is all that's going on here with the helping of new, crazy soul-having Spike, even if you do almost jump out of your skin when he unexpectedly touches you.
• Please make Dawn go *thunk* every episode. Preferably on her head next time.
• Spike's showering again! You'd think they could have shown that.
• Xander and Willow being freaked out over thinking Dawn was hot before they knew it was her? HEE!
• Watching Buffy get all skeezy over RJ is grossing me out. Nothing she ever did with Spike bothered me, but this? Eww!
• Hi, clean, good-smelling Spike!
• Don't kill Principal Wood. Too pretty to die. Okay, that bit through the window of Spike stopping Buffy made me laugh and laugh.
• LET DAWN DIE. Damn.
• The dashing up to RJ, getting the jacket off him, then running away was also much with the funny.
7.07 "Conversations with Dead People":
• Smashing all that electronic gear may be the coolest thing Dawn has ever done.
• Emotional therapy from the evil dead! LITERALLY. Show decided to get good again all of a sudden. The hell?
• Buffy finally acknowledges that she behaved like a monster to Spike and treated him very badly. (Yeah, that pretty much covers it. What he did to you later doesn't make how you treated him any better.) But she let him do whatever he wanted with her anyway. (And I really don't see the problem with that when both of you were willing. Get over the sexual guilt thing already!)
• "Sex and death and love and pain - it's all the same damn thing to you." "Your last relationship? Was it with a vampire?" AHAHAHAHAHA! I like this guy. Too bad she has to off him.
• Okay, Spike and blond bar chick. Where are they going with this? Given the rest of the episode, I'm doubting it's anywhere good. At all.
• "And the joke is, he loved me. I mean, in his own sick, soulless way, he really did care for me, but I didn't want to be loved." And she wanted to be punished and to hurt like she thought she deserved because she feels superior about her unasked-for power and destiny. No shit. Did you really only figure all this out NOW?
• Spike! I know I should be all horrified but instead I'm bouncing on the sofa and emitting a long, high-pitched squeal of glee. Eeeeeeeeeeeeee!
• Er, perhaps I'm just a little too excited about that last development. *flails*
• But it's VERY EXCITING, because how could he do that? I don't mean morally, because lots of soul-having people do evil deeds - and also because I enjoyed watching it a bit too much to be judgy - but literally? WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON HERE?
So the show decided to surprise me by becoming good again, at least for one episode.
HOW COULD HE DO THAT? *flails with twisted glee*
This show, it is messing with my head.
