Wesley: And how does your kind define love? Demon: Same as all bodies. Same as everywheres. Love is sacrifice.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

That little drawing of Hairloaf.

That was hi-larious. At least Angel is better than Spike at something.

Totally! and I liked the hat

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

That was hi-larious. At least Angel is better than Spike at something.

It also broke the schmoop, because it was schmoop with FUNNY PICTURE!!!

Umm. I'm easy. Hi!

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

I cried. Of course I cried! Girls! Killing things!

I can't believe it's gone.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Vi was a very good Slayer. I was also sad that Amanda died , though. And, did anyone see Kennedy alive at the end?

Cereal to say that I need to revise the crying warning, as I just watched the end again, and cried.

Cereal cereal, since I don't want to lose this thought:

The ending is really Sondheim-y, Into the Woods like-- in that you get a sense that although a journey has been completed, there is another Journey beginning. The end of Into the Woods is the same song as the beginning, with slightly different, older and wiser characters, and once the song reaches its seeming conclusion, Cinderella says once more "I wish...." The end of Buffy did this for me too, you have the talk of shopping malls, of sleeping of end, and then Dawn "Yeah, Buffy, what ARE we going to do?" -- A beginning.

Our wings are not tired.

the moment in the hallway with just the original four

I was pointing at the screen stammering. It's just the core four. There were many give 'em what they want moments.

And now Sophia has me crying again. Sigh.

I think that the first viewing for me was just getting through it-- I was so invested in being the end that I couldn't really focus. I've watched different parts several times this morning, and it is really coming together fo rme..

Also, Joss stopped lumping Kennedy in with the Scooby Gang and had Buffy tell her with the rest of the SiT's, so that is nice...

hip deep in pie

fat grandchildren

Yeah, Jenny as the First, used this phrase with Angel.

Something just occurred to me. Many folks expressed a wish that there hadn't been so many SIT's. Their quantity lessened their impact as individual characters. I agreed then, but I'm not so sure now. The ending wouldn't have had nearly the same impact if only four or five people had gotten slayer powers. It was important to Joss' story that there be dozens of girls out there who can now fight the good fight.
