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.

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?

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.

never mind

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

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

Yup. I bowed reflexively.

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

Argh. You people had to get all chatty, close out one thread, and start a new one while I was sitting in the dentist's chair. No consideration, I tell ya. *snerk*

Teeth drilling, not so good. Last night's ep (upon further reflection), wonderful. My allergies acted up watching it again. Wes' expression as he raised his hand was heartbreaking; he's ready for this. Though I don't believe that he will be the one that makes the ultimate sacrifice. Death is what he longs for, and ME has a funny sense of humor about that. A character will never get what he hopes and prays for, because it's not angsty enough. There's no conflict. Joss has just enough evil in him to let Wes live so he can forever remain a tortured soul. Death is the easy way out.

How cool was it that Spike raised his hand first? Despite the bickering and the affected nonchalance, he's right by Angel's side when it comes down to it. THEIRS is a forever love. The apocalypse isn't going to change that.

Whee! The MoG have the mission back. Now if the new and improved Connor would only show up in the finale...well, life wouldn't be grand because the frelling show is cancelled, for Christ's sake, but it would be decent. Until I start thinking about network idiots, and start ranting and raving all over again.

Edit: Super x-posty with connie and victor on Spike raising his hand first. Ahh, the hive-mind at work.
