The Fanged Four Appreciation # 2: b/c they are family. Sad but true
This is a thread to appreciate the vampire family of Darla, Angelus, Drusilla, and Spike. Last edited by Callace; 12-19-2008 at 09:38 AM |

In the same essay I quoted in the Spuffy thread, I thought I'd bring this over here.

Jennifer Stoy correctly describes Darla, Angelus, Spike and Drusilla as "a compelling vision of just how perverse a loving family can be" (226).
that is FF! Indeed! |

Isn't it?
And it even sort of explains, better than I do, how I see the whole family, all four of them. __________________

they are beautifully complex in that way
But I didnt quite get this: "You can even stake a vampire, as long as she's wearing the Gem of Amarra when you do it (“The Harsh Light of Day,” B4003)." Can you? She was gravely hurt by this, and it was a part of her grounds for kicking him out when he needed her. |

I think it was more talking about how vampires can be physically invunerable.

I suppose.
the essay was really good. But it did also show the a bit too disrespectful relationship the Buffyverse has to desth. (or dusting.) |

It seems like it. And a bit more advanced, with footnotes and all, than regular fan essays.

I think it's cause it was part of a book and posted online. __________________
