Hi, Michelvis!
I discovered TT several years ago during a very, very slow period at work. And discovered BtVS during the middle of S5. Soon after, I went to the TT Buffy threads to catch up on back story (before FX started airing reruns).
Delurked on 9/11/01.
Faith collapsing into Angel
Oh yeah! And Wes dropping the knife.
The Sanctuary. The list of episodes on the bar on the side may help remember.
A trio of favorites from Deep Down:
1) HSQ: Chained Justine in Wes' closet.
2) Bwah!: "I'll take away your bucket."
3) DB's really good: The "Daddy's not finished talking" scene, w/ the added bonus of Connor getting smacked around.
Bonus: Wes and Lilah gettin' it on. SR's a lovely woman.
Bonus: Wes and Lilah gettin' it on. SR's a lovely woman.
Indeed.
Wesley shooting his "father" stood out for me. It spoke volumes about where he had been and how he had progressed.
the replay of the Doyle video at the end of "Hero"
This. (sniff. or, rather, sob.)
Also, the Dance of Joy. And the Dance of Honor. I forced some Buffy-reluctant friends to watch this, and they laughed for a very long time, and admitted that there may indeed be parts of the Buffyverse that are worth something.
The opening scene in "Fredless." ("Oh, Buffy, I was so happy I almost forgot to brood!" "Oh, no!")
Wesley/Fred kiss. I was a shipper for them for so long that it was like an orgasm after years of slow love-making. Hell, I was shipping for them from Fred's introduction to the series (except for the brief, one-episode moment when I was a hardcore Fred/Willow shipper.)
Emergence of Illyria. "This will do." The look in Wesley's eyes.
And, to be repetitive and boring, how can you not love the closing the door on the lawyers?
Okay, that may be it. I miss Doyle. That is all.
Spike's "to the Angelmobile, away!" speech was also a thing of glory.
Lindsey's "Evil Hand Issues" speech.
Wes taking a bullet for Gunn.
Good times, good times.
