Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

Buffy and Angel 1: BUFFYNANGLE4EVA!!!!!1!

Is it better the second time around? Or the third? Or tenth? This is the place to come when you have a burning desire to talk about an old episode that was just re-run.

Well, there was that woman in season 7. . . but really it was Cordy and then Anya.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

I just remembered it as way more MoW than character-y and arc-y and just overall show-y. And yet? Nope, it was the other stuff as well. Lots.

I like that in a show.

The one who wanted to ritually sacrifice him? I didn't see her as a bastion of normalcy.

Cass -- it's true. And it's just a really solid episode too. Season 2 continues to impress.

Wait, maybe I'm thinking of season 6? The one whose boyfriend got turned into a giant worm.

Compassionately intolerant

Right! I remembered it as being very stand alone. Nice to see the consistency in storytelling and architude.

Looking forward to next week!

It really does, sumi. I'm glad we're doing the rewatch.

She was S7 too, actually. From the classic "eating our bottoms" and not in a felching way time.

Hey. New board.

I bought a book called The Physics of the Buffyverse today. Found it on the "new fiction" table at Barnes and Noble, though I'm not sure how actually new it is.

The introduction is fun - I'm looking forward to it.

Dude, I missed the School Hard rewatch so I am watching it now and ... damn. It's just lovely.
