I like Anne's fanwank about Not!Giles. It makes sense and makes me happy.
Strong like an Amazon.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.
Buffy may not have been able to love him as he would have wished for her to love him, but she didn't simply take without giving. Buffy gave him her belief, her faith, and her strength. Buffy gave him her trust, if not her heart.
Okay, sniff. Plei, that was kind of beautiful. t /Andrew
Buffy/Spike has had a weird and rocky path, but it felt like it ended the way it should have ended. "No you don't, but thanks for saying it." to Buffy's declaration was the perfect thing for Spike to have said. Then Spike going out in blazes laughing his fool head off--it felt *right*.

Plei and ita are right. And not just cos they're scary. I've been spike (I even had the hair!), and there's no black and white answer.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
I'm very satisfied, and I know I'll be sad later, when the finality of it all seeps in. I loved the pretty bowknots on the ends of things, and I love the things left undone, to supply imaginative ramblings. I don't care if there was basement sex or not, the fact that both Buffy and Spike seemed easy together was enough. I loved the way Bufi&Angle4evah!!1! was dealt with, and even the cookie dough metaphor was their-era appropriate.
It was a worthy finale to a show that's broken ground in many ways during its run.
I'd say more, but Jim already spoke for me.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
Someone said in an LJ that Buffy's last line of dialogue was "I love you, Spike."
Make of that what you will.

It wasn't, Teppy, but it was damn near. Her last line of dialogue was (I think) just, "Spike," in answer to Giles, when he asked what caused the sucked-into-the-earthness.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
Jim already spoke for me.
And me.

Oh, I'm not a 'shipper. Just passing on what someone else (who IS a 'shipper) said.

t eye-roll No way. That's just maudlin (and would have ruined the lovely goo-free interactions between Buffy and Spike I enjoyed all through the episode.) And that moment was about so much more than Buffy's romantic relationship.
