Zoe: What's that, sir? Mal: Freedom, is what. Zoe: No, I meant what's that? Mal: Oh. Yeah. Just step around it. I think something must've been living in here.

'Out Of Gas'


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.

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

That is shockingly prepared for Mark. I'm almost tempted to Read Mark Watching and not just Buffista Read Mark Watching.

Ann, that's a ferret.

I'm not so sure he's prepared. After all, it looks like Joyce recovers, she starts to date, and then...WHAM!

But there's also the "Is Buffy going to try to die" part. I think he's getting prepared for season's end....

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

I can't wait to read his reaction to "Darla" given his comments on how strange Angelus was acting in "FfL".

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

But there's also the "Is Buffy going to try to die" part. I think he's getting prepared for season's end....

And didn't he make a comment that he never wants to see Spike cry again? Although, after Buffy jumps off the tower, Mark may be so torn up that he won't notice Spike bawling.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

I don't think he CAN be prepared for The Body. It's just...GAH. So intense.

But he will love Tara even more after he sees it.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

But he will love Tara even more after he sees it.

Setting him up for "Seeing Red."

Well, he gets to see her brainsucked by Glory first, which I'm sure will get to him almost as bad.

Always Anti-fascist!

That will be hardest, I predict, cause it goes on longer and they say "crazy" or "insane", like throughout that whole arc. I'm also rewatching season 5 right now, though, and even I don't really want to see "The Body" again, masterful bit of television that it was.My mom kind of looks like Joyce, and she's had cancer, and I totally wasted the fruit-punch speech on that TV Tropes asshole, which, now if he dies, the sad part is, I can't claim responsibility for it.(Ironically, I am more angry about that with distance. Also, more people I know telling me how great TV Tropes is...it just makes me all "That motherless fuck!" whereas, at the time, I did what good detectives never do and got hung up on the "Why?" I guess we're never going to know.) Anyway...

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Yeah, it may be another ten years before I go near The Body.

and I totally wasted the fruit-punch speech on that TV Tropes asshole, which, now if he dies, the sad part is, I can't claim responsibility for it

I got a linked in request from him the other day. Ugh.
