Jayne: That's a good idea. Good idea. Tell us where the stuff's at so I can shoot you. Mal: Point of interest? Offering to shoot us might not work so well as an incentive as you might imagine.

This is where we talk about Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No spoilers though?if you post one by accident, an admin will delete it. This thread is NO LONGER NAFDA. Please don't discuss current Angel events here.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

Aww. That's just the cutest story. Must go dig up my OMWF CD when I get home.

Neat story.

All is well that ends in pizza.

Faith, hope and Trick is on FX right now, East coast/central feed.

A moment, as Buffy looks down, gathers something in herself.

BUFFY
Angel was cured.

GILES
I'm sorry?

BUFFY
When I killed him, Angel was...
cured. Your spell worked, Willow.
Last minute. I was about to take him
out and something went through him
and then he was... Angel again. He
didn't remember anything he'd done,
he just held me, and...
(this is tough)
... but it was, it was too late and
I had to... I kissed him, and I told
him that I loved him. And I killed him.

Beauty and the Beasts is on now. I've noticed some Faith foreshadowing.

Now Buffy moves to Faith - who is bopping away from her. Buffy gently taps her shoulder. Faith spins and SMASHES BUFFY in the face. Hard. Buffy stumbles back.

BUFFY
Oww - !

Faith sees what she's done. Rips the headphones off. We can HEAR strains of SCREAMING HEAVY METAL through them.

FAITH
Buffy! Are you okay!?
What are you doing here?

So basically we were being set up for Faith's future, I see.

And in the same conversation:

BUFFY
I figured. Ow - again.
(then)
I came to give you the rest of the night off.

FAITH
Get out of jail free, huh? How come?

Intentional or not, foreshadows Faith's path.

move out and draw fire

I'm going to be contrary again and put The Gift and Chosen at the bottom of my list. This is because in both cases the solution for the season's problem was "use a bigger weapon." The writers kind of wrote themselves into corners with too-powerful-can't-be-beaten Big Bads, and wussed out (IMHO) both times by pulling a SuperWeapon from elsewhere.

It's like they want us to vote for increased defense spending or something.

I liked a lot else about each of the two, but they weren't nearly the personal impact of Becoming or Grad Day, or as funky cool as Restless.

Nobody

Becoming

Restless

Graduation Day

Grave

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Prophecy Girl, Becoming, Restless, Graduation Day, The Gift, Chosen, Grave.

I'm going to be contrary and say I liked almost nothing about either Grave or Chosen. Chosen edges out Grave for second to last place largely due to the fact that Spike died in it. Also, no yellow crayon speech.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Jess, yeah, but... he got better. The Gift in no way made up for the rest of the end arc. I should not have been chanting "jump! jump!" and yet I was.

Chosen, for all the flaws, was better than expected, which improved its ranking. Grave had freaking Sarah music. Meh.

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights

Hmmm....

Becoming, Chosen, Restless, Graduation Day, The Gift, Prophecy Girl, Grave.

Chosen worked for me in spite of all my problems with S7 as a whole because it was such a fitting end for Buffy's story, and because I wholeheartedly, schmoopily loved the powering up of the Slayers.
