I can't even.

Geez, chatty cow-orker pops in for an eternal-seeming gab and I miss the end of the old thread.

Khhhaaaaaannnnn!!

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

Did Angel "Kill" Drogyn? Didn't they say that Drogyn had eternal life? Can such a being be killed like that?

This is bothering me--either Angel was too far in to step away, and had to kill Drogyn, or he's set up the sting even further, and Drogyn's alive and an ace in the hole.

Also, Angel/Spike is now Cannon. Hee. I am 12.

Maybe I was willfully imagining it, but I thought Angel was pleased that Spike was the first one to raise his hand.

Oh, yeah. Plus the Spike/Illyria conversation was great. Every ages-old demonic entity needs a Spike as a pet.

Art Crawl!!!

How could Drogyn still be alive?

I mean -- am I just assuming that there are Blackthorn people who could sense if Angel had drained him or just fed?

All is well that ends in pizza.

It's also possible that Drogyn was willing to be bitten/killed for the greater goal of getting rid of that much evil.

I'm going to have to re-watch, but assuming all of his statements are factually true, he said that he found out Angel ordered his death. What is unsaid is that he agreed to it beforehand or afterwards. The character answers direct questions, but still can hide with selective truth.

That's my ass-pull for the morning. Need to rewatch.

And screencap if this XSVCD file ever finishes downloading.

Well, Angel also snapped his neck.

Ah, my bleary eyed morning self did not recall that.

During Spike's speech to Illyria in the amusement park, didn't he call her "Highness"?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Angel didn't imply Drogyn was in on it -- wouldn't he have, in his defense?

Yup. I bowed reflexively.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I thought Angel tricked Drogyn, because Drogyn can't lie.
