[NAFDA] "There will be an occasional happy, so that it might be crushed under the boot of the writer." From Zorro to Angel (including Wonderfalls and The Inside), this is where Buffistas come to anoint themselves in the bloodbath.

take it back in time

Oh please, yes. With Dru. I want the adventures of Dru & Spike. Honestly, I just want the adventures of Dru, but I know that won't happen.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

standing in corner with Allyson.

Did your head explode with the whole "the immortal" thing on Angel?

I was sort of like, "No, there was a bus and Buffy smiled and the show was over and I was cool with that ending, I don't want to know about her dating some greasy Adrien Brody-type character riding a vespa through venice."

I felt this strange need to see Angel through to the end. NSM with Buffy.

But didn't the show end before anything happened to Angel and Spike and Illyria and Gunn?

Sorry, I don't mean the end of the show like, "up until the last frame before the credits." It's not a timing issue. Maybe I should say "the end of the story" instead. To me it's only slightly more ambiguous than the ending of Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid. I don't need to see them actually die on-screen to get the idea.

I guess I could say they're doomed instead of dead. If you want them to survive the show, maybe that distinction matters. As I said earlier, if there's a movie that starts and ends in the midst of that fight, and then it's all a flashback to some story set six months earlier that's fine with me. (Well, it's not fine, but I won't scream about it.) Because that doesn't change the end of the story: they die in a rainy alley.

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

For me, the fat lady hasn't sung. And she won't without authorial intervention. But I don't know her lines.

Embrace the idea that we are the leaders we've been looking for. Grace Lee Boggs

Of course, it's theoretically possible that the blond vampire is neither Spike nor Buffy. Um, nor Harmony. It could be some other blond vampire that we've never seen before. Although, I will stand out here by myself to say that while I never liked Harmony alive, she started to grow on me once she died. I actually liked Disharmony (I still think it should be spelled disHarmony, though).
