Monday it looks. We've got Phases and then Bewitched, etc. to finish out this week.
Wash: Captain, didn't you know kissin' girls makes you sleepy? Mal: Well sometimes I just can't help myself.
'Our Mrs. Reynolds'
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.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
Becoming 2 is really going to mess him up, isn't it?
It's a really, really great mind-fuck. There seem like 2 ways out of the Acathla dealie -- (1) Willow re-souls Angel, he's good again, no sucking into hell, yay; or (2) Buffy kills Angelus, which would still be basically okay because he's pure distilled evil who just tortured Giles.
But wait, there's more! How about option 1 AND 2?!? That? SO FUCKED UP. I never saw it coming. It's so MEAN. And pretty brilliant.

Plus Joyce finding out that Buffy is the Slayer and basically giving her the "if you walk out that door" ultimtum, AND telling Giles she blames him for everything that's happening. Or was the second one season two? It's been a while.

I watch that even now and can't quite believe Joss did that.

HE IS NOW A VILLAIN FOR AT LEAST A FEW MORE EPISODES SWEET SUMMER CHILD.
Ha!

The second one is season 3.
Look, I just love Joyce Summers a lot, okay? I eagerly await the episode when Buffy can just tell her mom what’s going on. I NEED IT.
I don't think he is going to like Joyce's reaction. Angel kisses Spike on the head.
WHERE ARE THE FICS. WHERE ARE THEY.
Someone should find Mark some slash fics that don't spoil what happens next.
Oz’s entire make-out scene/speech.
Willow kissage! Possibly one of my favorite Buffy scenes ever.

Trust my rage
All this talk is making me want to watch Becoming again. Right now.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.
I don't think he is going to like Joyce's reaction.
Someone should contact his friends before he gets to "The Body," just to be sure he's OK. I think he might really hurt himself after that one.
On the flip side, I'm curious to see how he comes down on Willow and Tara. He'll probably be ecstatic. And then ... yeah. He's got a lot of pain coming, doesn't he?

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

Didn't he make it through The Hunger Games without self-harm?

"Oh no! Has falling sky liquid once again caused you the sadness?" -Starfire
To me, The Body is much more brutal than The Hunger Games. I sobbed like a baby during THG, but I was physically ill during The Body. (Then again, my mom had cancer when it aired and it wasn't going well at all.)
I know so many people who haven't been able to watch The Body again. It's just too gutting.

I find I can't summarise either of them without tearing up, but even though my mother is undergoing chemo (or, well not) at the moment, I still think they're of a quantum level of fuck-you-over.
