I want the fire back

I finished watching season 5 and 6 of Buffy The Vampire Slayer, and here are my notes and favorites quotes!

Season 5

+ DRACULA!!! Rudolf Martin as Dracula - I love him! [Ep. 1]
+ Dawn! [Ep. 1] A man in the street tells her, “I know what you are. You don’t belong here.” How right he is…
+ Spike watches Dawson’s Creek! LMAO! [Ep. 4]
+ Ben! Evil but cute and hot! :P [Ep. 4]
+ Joyce first breaks down. First sign of her sickness. :( [Ep. 4]
+ Graham! <3 [Ep. 4]
+ Spike starts having sex dreams about Buffy! [Ep. 4]
+ The magician hat! Oh Giles! **giggles** [Ep. 5]
+ Glory! Looking for the key. Dawn. [Ep. 5]
+ Also the first time Buffy calls Spike “William”! And he’s stalking her! Cute! LOL
+ Tara is something supernatural?! No, it’s just a myth the family made up! And sending her family away makes Tara stronger. :) [Ep. 6]
+ Buffy gets staked with her own stake! [Ep. 7] And makes Spike tell her how he killed the two slayers. - Flashbacks!! With Angel, Darla and Drusilla! LOVE! London, 1880. William, the poet. **g**
+ Dru asked William if he wanted to be changed! She gave him a choice! [Ep. 7]
+ China, 1900, Boxer Rebellion. - Spike fights a slayer. She gave him the scar above his eye! Remarkable with only 20 years as a vampire, he does something like this. And Angel, as vicious as he’s been, he only murdered simple humans, but never took on a slayer.
+ New York, 1977. Breaks her neck - and takes her jacket!
+ Spike tries to kiss Buffy after he told her about the kills, and she’s disgusted by it. [Ep. 7] And then he confronts Buffy with her feeling of a death wish that every slayer gets one day.
Buffy: “Say it’s true. It wouldn’t be you, Spike. It would never be you. You’re beneath me.”
And then she throws the money at him and leaves, leaves him like a whore. He picks up the money - and sobs!!!
Spike: “’Beneath me.’ I’ll show her. Six bloody feet beneath me.” - Takes a rifle to kill Buffy. But can’t when he sees how hurt she is about the situation with her mother.
+ Joyce gets diagnosed with a brain tumor. [Ep. 8] :(
+ Buffy neglects her relationship with Riley more and more - and he seeks the thrill with a vampire! [Ep. 8] Hell, I wouldn’t mind sucking on Marc Blucas, either! :P
+ What I only realize now, it’s always Giles doing the “Previously on…” - like he - the Watcher - is telling the slayer’s stories! Huh…
+ Aliens in Sunnydale! [Ep. 9] And sure, it’s creepy! Very creepy! o.O
+ Mhh… Graham (Bailey Chase) again! <3 [Ep. 9 + 10]
+ Riley stakes Spike! [Ep. 10] - with a plastic stake!
+ Xander makes Buffy realize that Riley is a guy who’d do anything for her, so she runs after him. But it’s too late, he’s leaving… [Ep. 10]
+ I loved how Buffy kicked the council’s ass by telling them what’s what, that she has power over them! [Ep. 12]
+ Glory is a god!!! [Ep. 12] And there’s also an order of knights of Byzantium after the key.
+ Dawn finds out she’s the key! [Ep. 13] When she tells Ben, Glory knows, too, instantly. Was he like her source to the outside or something? Also her brother?!
+ Xander calls Spike “Bleach Boy”! **giggles** [Ep. 14]
+ Buffy finds out that Spike is in love with her! [Ep. 14]
+ Dru back in Sunnydale! - And that’s a cross with Angel again. Where Dru is still marked after Angel had set her and Darla on fire!
+ …And Buffy rescinds Spike’s invitation to her house. Aw, his face! So hurt! [Ep. 14]
+ Warren! [Ep. 15] He’ll play a bigger role later on…
+ Robots (back) in Sunnydale! [Ep. 15] Warren was lonely and built her. Sad. Sad because that could be me… :P And Spike orders Warren to make one for him, too!
+ The episode where Joyce dies… [Ep. 16] It breaks me. Every time. :( What also gets to me is that there’s no music at all in this episode.
+ Ep. 17 is so creepy, with Dawn bringing Joyce back from the dead. Has a touch of Pet Cemetery. o.O And Spike helps!
+ After the funeral, Buffy waits, and as soon as it’s dark, Angel arrives. I love how he just takes her hand.
+ Ben is the opposite of Glory. He doesn’t want her to get to the key and kill people.
+ Spike had a Buffy robot made for himself! o.O [Ep. 18]
+ I LOVED the last scene in ep. 18! When Buffy pretends to be robot!Buffy and kisses Spike because he protected Dawn. When he notices that it’s the real Buffy… ♥
+ Willow goes dark when Glory attacks Tara!! [Ep. 19]
+ Ah, I knew it! Ben is Glory’s vessel! Kill the vessel (:(), kill the beast!
+ Xander proposes to Anya! [Ep. 22]
+ Buffy doesn’t have it in her to kill Ben - but Giles does! “She’s a hero. She’s not like us.”
+ Buffy sacrifices herself for Dawn and the world. [Ep. 22] and omg, I just love how Spike breaks down!

”Dawn, listen to me. I love you. I will always love you. This is the work that I have to do. Tell Giles I figured it out and I’m ok. And give my love to my friends. You have to take care of them now. You have to take care of each other. You have to be strong. Dawn, the hardest thing in this world is to live in it. Be brave. Live. For me.”

Buffy Anne Summers - 1981 - 2001 - Beloved sister - Devoted friend - She saved the world a lot.

Favorite quotes:

Riley about Buffy: “Buffy’s like nobody else in the world. When I’m with her, it’s like I’m split in two. Half of me is just on fire, going crazy if I’m not touching her. The other half is so still and peaceful. Just perfectly content. Just knows this is the one. But she doesn’t love me.” - Aw, Riley! :( [Ep. 3]

Buffy: “What are you doing here? Five words or less.”
Spike: “Out. For. A. Walk. …Bitch.” [Ep. 5]

Buffy: “Were you born this big a pain in the ass?”
Spike: “What can I tell you, baby? I’ve always been bad.” [Ep. 7]

- “Have you heard? They call him William the Bloody because of his bloody awful poetry.”
- “It suits him. I’d rather have a spike through my head than listen to that awful stuff.” [Ep. 7] - I guess I know who got tortured by Spike later…

William/Spike: “I know I’m a bad poet, but I’m a good man and all I ask is that you try to see me…”
Cecily: “I do see you. That’s the problem. You’re nothing to me, William. You’re beneath me.” [Ep. 7]

”Getting killed made me feel alive for the very first time.” - Spike [Ep. 7]

Xander to Anya: “I gotta say something. Cos I don’t think I’ve made it clear. I’m in love with you. Powerfully, painfully in love. The things you do, the way you think, the way you move. I get excited every time I’m about to see you. You make me feel like I’ve never felt before in my life. Like a man. I just thought you might wanna know.” ♥ [Ep. 10]

Dawn: “I feel safe with you.”
Spike: **chokes on cigarette smoke** “Take that back!” - LOL at his shocked expression! [Ep. 14]

”If looks could stake.” - Spike [Ep. 15]

”But I don’t understand! I don’t understand how this all happens, how we go through this. I mean, I knew her, and then she’s… There’s just a body. And I don’t understand why she just can’t get back in it and not be dead anymore. It’s stupid. It’s mortal and stupid. And Xander’s crying and not talking. And I was having fruit punch. And I thought, ‘Well, Joyce will never have any more fruit punch ever and she’ll never have eggs, or yawn or brush her hair, not ever.’ And no one will explain to me why.” - Anya [Ep. 16]

Willow about Tara: ”She’s my everything.” [Ep. 19]

Spike to Buffy: ”I know you’ll never love me. I know that I’m a monster. But you treat me like a man, and that’s…”

Season 6

+ Willow and Tara live in the Summers house now, - with the Buffy!bot! [Ep. 1]
+ Buffy wakes up in her coffin! [Ep. 1] I thought that was very well done!
+ When Spike sees Buffy in ep. 3 - I love this scene! Because he instantly noticed that it’s the real Buffy! And when he holds her wounded hands after he realized she clawed her way out of her coffin! And he counted the days that she’s been gone! “147 days yesterday. 148 today. Except today doesn’t count, does it?”
+ Ep. 3 is also sooooo creepy! Something dark haunting them, especially the scene with Anya and the white eyes and the wicked laughter! I jumped when I saw this the first time, - and I still do! O_O
+ Buffy thanks her friends for bringing her back [Ep. 3] but then she opens up to Spike: “I was happy. Wherever I was, I was happy. At peace. I knew that everyone I cared about was all right. I knew it. Time didn’t mean anything. Nothing had form, but I was still me, you know? And I was warm. And I was loved. And I was finished. Complete. I don’t understand theology, or dimensions, or any of it, really, but I think I was in heaven. And now I’m not. I was torn out of there. Pulled out by my friends. Everything here is hard, and bright, and violent. Everything I feel, everything I touch. This is hell.”
+ The season of the three baddies - Andrew, Jonathan and Warren!
+ Cross with Angel again! [Ep. 6]
+ Dawn gets her first kiss - from a vampire! [Ep. 6]
+ I LOVE “ONCE MORE WITH FEELING” SO MUCH! [Ep. 7] I even have the album and it’s one of my most-listened-to albums!
+ And Spike and Buffy only end this madness with a kiss! <3
+ Willow’s using so much magic! [Ep. 8] A spell that backfires and makes everyone forget: Buffy that she’s the slayer. Spike that he’s a vampire, but Giles’ son! LMAO!
+ Spike can hit Buffy - without the splitting headache! [Ep. 9]
+ Amy the rat, formerly human, is human again! [Ep. 9] And brings Willow on the path of dark magic completely.
+ Spike and Buffy fight, now that he can - and it ends in wild sex! [Ep. 9]
+ The ep. With the Double Meat Palace [12] is also not one of my favorites. Though, I like the scene much where Spike tries to convince Buffy to leave the place. “Come away with me now.”
+ RILEY! [Ep. 15] And married! And scarred! **purrs** So sexy! I loved when Buffy saw him the first time again at the Double Meat Palace, “Welcome to the Double Meat Palace. How may I help… You.”
+ “Hell’s Bells”! [Ep. 16] Xander and Anya are getting married! …Or not.
+ Ah! Ep. 17! Where Buffy thinks, or is made to think that her life is just an imagination. Cool ep.! I’ve read many fics about it, or that are based on that ep.! And woah! Buffy really had been in an institution before! After she saw her first vampires, she told her parents about it and they put her there!
Very mean, also, but oh so very cool and awesome, at the end they’re showing how the doctor diagnoses that Buffy is lost in her schizophrenia. So, what is real now? That world, or the other?
+ Anya is a vengence demon again! [Ep. 18]
+ Anya sleeps with Spike! O_O [Ep. 18] - And the others can watch it on camera!
+ Willow and Tara are back together! ♥ [Ep. 18]
+ Spike almost rapes Buffy!!! O_O [Ep. 19] “Ask me again why I could never love you.” Oh, is this the ep. where Spike decides he wants to try and get his soul back? Omg! YES!
+ Warren goes after Buffy with a gun - and also kills Tara! :( Which brings out the darkest in Willow… [Ep. 19]
+ Ep. 20 - Cool how Willow took the black magic from the books, up her arms and eyes, leaving blank pages - and her hair black!
+ Xander finds out that Anya is a demon again! [Ep. 20]
+ Warren puts an axe in Willow! O_O But it doesn’t do anything to her! “Axe not gonna cut it.” And then Willow kills Warren. Sews his mouth shut! Puts the bullet she took out of Buffy into his chest, slowly! Skins him!! O_O And burns the body.
Unbelievable that Willow did this, sweet, geeky Willow! And then Xander, cute, adorkable Xander, the ordinary guy, saves the world. And more.
+ “This is what happened this year” - voiceover by Xander. [Ep. 21] So far, it’s only been Giles.
+ Spike is going through tests to get his soul back! Fight demons, bugs…
+ Buffy and Willow fight each other!!! And then Giles intervenes!!
Willow: “No one in the world has got the power to stop me now.” **gets thrown down by magic**
Giles: “I’d like to test that theory.”
+ Willow rises a satanic temple to destroy the world! [Ep. 22] And no supernatural power can stop her. Only one man…
+ I liked Buffy and Dawn fighting together! [Ep. 22]
+ …With the simple words “I love you”.
+ Jonathan and Andrew get away!
+ SPIKE GETS HIS SOUL!!! “We will return your soul.”

Favorite quotes:

”Oh Watcher. Did your life pass before your eyes? ‘Cup of tea. Cup of tea. Almost got shagged. Cup of tea.’” - Spike to Giles [Ep. 1]

About Xander and Anya’s wedding [Ep. 6]. Buffy: ”Did you know about this?”
Giles: ”No. Not unless I blocked it from my memory. Much as I will Xander’s vigorous use of his tongue.” **takes off his glasses and starts cleaning**
Buffy: ”Is that why you’re always cleaning your glasses? So you don’t have to see what we’re doing?”
Giles: ”Tell no one.”

”Mist. Cemetery. Halloween. Should end well.” - Giles [Ep. 6]

[Ep. 7] **singing** All: ”We have to try, we’ll pay the price. It’s do or die…”
Buffy: ”Hey, I’ve died twice!”

Spike singing: ”Whisper in a dead man’s ear.”

”I know, I should go // But I follow you like a man possessed // There’s a traitor here beneath my breast // And it hurts me more than you’ve ever guessed // If my heart could beat it would break my chest”

”Dawn is in trouble? Must be Tuesday.” - Buffy [Ep. 7] (Had Buffy been airing on Tuesdays? **g**)

Buffy singing: ”I touch the fire and it freezes me // I look into it and it’s black // Why can’t I feel? // My skin should crack and peel // I want the fire back”

”There was no pain // No fear, no doubt // Till they pulled me out // Of heaven // So that’s my refrain // I live in Hell // Cos I’ve been expelled // From heaven // I think I was in heaven”

Spike singing: ”Life’s not a song // Life isn’t bliss // Life is just this // It’s living // You’ll get along // The pain that you feel // You only can heal // By living // You have to go on living // So one of us is living”

Buffy: ”Hi Amy. How’ve you been?”
Amy: ”Rat. You?”
Buffy: ”Dead.” [Ep. 9]

Sam (Riley’s wife): ”Gotta tell you, Buffy. I’m a bit intimidated. I mean, patrolling with the real, live Slayer. You’re like Santa Claus, or Buddha, or something.”
Buffy: ”Fat and jolly?”
Sam: ”Legendary.” [Ep. 15]

Riley to Buffy [Ep. 15]: ”You’re still the first woman I ever loved and the strongest woman I’ve ever known.”

Buffy breaks up with Spike [Ep. 15]: ”I’m using you. I can’t love you. I’m just being weak and selfish. And it’s killing me. I have to be strong about this. I’m sorry, William.” - William!!! <333

”Great love is wild, and passionate and dangerous. It burns and consumes.” - Spike [Ep. 19]

”Willow doesn’t live here anymore.” - Willow [Ep. 22]

Now, only season 7 is left, 22 episodes, and I'm through with rewatching this incredible, awesome show!
