That whole effing post is just gold

Spike on Snapchat "all these filters just make me look dead."

Buffy Summers has changed her relationship status to its complicated. William "Spike" The Bloody likes this.



Xander trying to slide into everyone's DMs

This is OT from that convo but maybe sorta on topic for this thread idk, and maybe it was explained but I missed it, but I know in the troll episode Willow was working on that spell to make sunlight to help Buffy on patrol. Wouldn't that spell have been just as effective for the final battle against the uber vamps? Instead of Spike exploding them? I guess then there wouldn't have been much story but it would have been helpful

LMAOOOO

I can see Xander and Spike being creepers and liking all her pics even ones that are 3 years old.

Oh god, he'd so be the type to send unsolicited dick pics.

I think the writers dropped that idea and we are to believe Willow never mastered it because it would make killing vamps too easy

Speaking of plot holes...why did the watcher's council pay the watchers a salary but not their slayers? Gilles gets paid for his work but Buffy doesn't? She's only the one doing all the heavy lifting and, ya know, saving the world.

Wouldn't she be a more effective slayer if she could slay full-time instead of worry about bills?

Some kind of patriarchy white man BS.

She's probably the first slayer in a long while who lived long enough to have bills TO worry about. Besides Robin's mom who had a kid to provide for

In s5 she should have demanded, when she demanded Giles' salary be reinstated (prorated!!!) that she get paid too. But now I can't remember if Checkpoint is before or after The Body and am too lazy to look so maybe she wasn't thinking about losing her mom and having to be a provider.

I know she didn't want to collect money for saving people's lives but

I was thinking earlier about our convo regarding the technology now vs then and now would vamps use Tinder to reel in girls? Like Happy Meals on wheels for real

^Yep. Think you nailed the reason on the head. The Watchers council ain't **** and don't want to pay their slayers. Their gross test that they put the slayers through on their 18th birthday is probably intended to kill them so they can have a shiny new child to manipulate.



I never understood if this moment in her dream had any symbolism

Seriously that test was so gross. Buffy was probably the first one that actually made it to her 18th birthday who actually passed.

Yeah I still don't understand that part of the dream! I would say maybe that monkey is symbolism for Xander but that would be an insult to the monkey

Willow: I wanted to tell you. But I was so scared…
Buffy: You can tell me anything, Willow. I love you. You’re my best friend.
Willow: Me too. I love you too.
Buffy: Let’s promise to never not talk again -
Willow: I promise. I promise…
