I remember sobbing my little eyes out so much. And I know everyone hates him and them but this exact moment gutted me so much ;A;

Same. Spike was crying his cold dead heart out and I felt the same way. Buffy's death really hit me hard.

While I hate Spuffy, I would've been ok with a brief fling in S6 had they not taken it to the mutual love aspect of it.

Back then I was too young to get why the Buffybot was so gross like I hated it but I didn’t hate spike at that stage tbh.

After that tho when he tried to rape her tho, bye. Fucking die spike no I don’t fucking care that you got your own soul back. Bye.

Same. I know Spike is a terrible undead nonperson BUT I felt so sad for him.

His reaction breaks me every time.
