Y'all see the man hanging out of the spaceship with the really big gun? Now I'm not saying you weren't easy to find. It was kinda out of our way, and he didn't want to come in the first place. Man's lookin' to kill some folk. So really it's his will y'all should worry about thwarting.

"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman

Watching The Wish this morning, and noticed something. When The Master is making his big speech about the future, he says "Some would say that death is our art". I thought that was verrry interesting. Discuss.

Religion isn't the cause of wars. It's the excuse. - Christopher Brookmyre

Oooh. Cool.

The Master tends towards a lot of stuff about Buffy's role. Like 'You're not the hunter, you're the lamb.'

And that whole conv with Dracula is packed with comparisions between Slayers and vampires.

Let's see, Xander staked the vamp at the funeral home, the one who said "Angel says hello."

Thanks for all the fish.

Ah, with the improvised easel stake.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

Yet another instance of vampires apparently having the consistency of tapioca pudding when someone tries to stake 'em. Now, I've seen Buffy bend a rifle barrel, so no objections to her impaling people on a sharpened object with casual exertion. But Cordelia?

If I ruled the world, all the directors of both shows would have been required to take a stake to a slaughterhouse and see how easy it is to ram it about six inches deep into a side of beef.

Thanks for all the fish.

But Cordelia?

Pretty sure she managed with a spatula, didn't she? Or was that just threatened?

She did. Which kind of underscores my point. If there had been a Season 8, we might have seen Dawn dust a vampire by throwing a clothespin in the general vicinity of its chest.

Well, considering how much attention they tended to pay to the actual position of the human heart, I'm surprised we didn't see Vamps dusted because they got a splinter in their finger.

an overblown libretto and a sumptuous score/ could never contain the contradictions I adore

Or their butt cheek.

Hey, would've worked for Pylean vampires.
