A lot of the lore questions can be answered with, "yes, Spike is just a fucking freak."
Like, yeah vampires don't get much out of eating, won't risk going out during the day, wouldn't have the inner compass to seek out a soul, wouldn't stand by a mad Drusilla for centuries, would avoid slayers at all cost, and wouldn't aid a slayer once neutered for funsies.
Spike is just a fucking freak. A weirdo. Darla and Angel couldn't stand him in part due to the fact that something just is sideways in that man's head. No wonder him and Drusilla got on like a house on fire, they both have something deeply wrong with them.
And yeah, there's that whole demon taking the human as a template theory, and Spike being hedonism personified, and I'm well aware.
But like, I think using Spike as any kind of metric is a mistake because he is simply like that.
Spike is a kinked up, adrenaline junkie, loser, who sees common sense and sprints the other way with nothing but a blanket for holes for cover. It's just him, his purple shampoo, and his boredom zooming through the undead existence.
I have many thoughts about how much of the BtVS vampire lore as stated by the Council and Angel is either just wrong or twisted or misinterpreted, but simultaneously I can't deny that also Spike is just a fucking freak.
queer joy :')

the hands-down best thing in the Last Binding trilogy is how when you meet Edwin Courcey in book 1, he has the demeanor, self-esteem, and (total lack of) public regard of a runty mongrel cat that was birthed directly into a cold puddle and has been lying there ever since, hissing faintly every time it’s kicked (it’s kicked all the time) but never even trying to get up…
Then by book 3, not only is the entire book just all the other protagonists continuously going, [Arthur Shappey voice] “Edwin will do something clever and it will all be fine.” as they follow whatever plan he researched up this time, BUT ALSO the antagonists, including notably Edwin’s shitheel brother who’s dedicated a significant amount of their lives to discounting and tormenting him, going, “Unfortunately, we must adapt our evil plans specifically to account for the fact that Edwin Courcey is the cleverest magician in the British Isles.” Walter Courcey shouting, “Edwin’s up to something!” like a tattletale sibling in the back seat on a road trip, you will always be famous to me (derogatory) (not calling him the nickname he hates now are you, fucker). (And then Edwin breaks his magical handcuffs, asks his hot & punchy boyfriend to cause a distraction, and channels an entire leyline until he shines like lightning and blows up/partially dissolves magician!parliament; you will always be famous to me (laudatory, exultant.))
I think the thing that annoys me most about AI on a personal, day to day, level is what it has done to grammar checkers. If you've never done a lot of editing, or used to 5+ years ago but haven't really in the last couple years, I can't even begin to describe how fucking BAD this shit has gotten. And as an author it is EXHAUSTING.
I just want to catch spelling errors and accidental double spaces and repeated phrases and whenever I use the wrong too/to or affect/effect and shit. But no. They've shoved AI up the ass of every grammar checking software out there and now they all fucking suck and make the most random, obnoxious, nonsensical suggestions.
And yeah, I can ignore all the times it's trying to get me to cut out any semblance of my own voice, or shove things into the wrong tense, or make the most random suggestions on comma usage. But if it's getting all that WRONG, what is it just straight up missing that I SHOULD be correcting? What real spelling and grammar errors are still lurking in there?
"Use Libre Office."
I get why people keep saying this (and other versions of it like "Use Adobe alternatives" and "Use Google product alternatives."). But here's the problem: I do not create in isolation. Even my own 100% personal projects are getting sent to other people whether it's editors or printers or beta readers and unless every single person in that train is using the same products, things can get wonky.
Libre Office and Word handle formatting differently on the back end, which can completely break documents if you move them back and forth between the two. So if I write in Libre Office but my beta readers are still using Word, when I send them a manuscript for review there's a good chance things won't look right and my beta reader will not actually be reviewing what I sent them.
Industry standards are industry standards FOR A REASON. Having everyone on the same workflow can be crucial to getting things done effectively and correctly without creating a lot of extra work. And those things are not going to change overnight, as much as we might want them to.
:| :| :|
Yeah, Word, let me just leave this whole chunk of dialogue without the closing quotation marks. That's the thing to do. How dare I have two punctuation marks in a row. It's not like that's how closing quotation marks fucking work.
I am going to light something on fire.
And you know, for young writers, this has got to be so detrimental just from the perspective of opening your document and seeing a million corrections that, frankly, don't need to be there. If you're a young writer you're likely not going to have the background knowledge to know what is and isn't a good suggestion, you're just going to see a document that makes it look like you made every mistake possible so clearly you must be a terrible, stupid writer and should just give up.
Love like there's no ending.

i love clicking on somebody’s ao3 profile and seeing the most nonsensical collection of fandoms. like yess let's live a thousand lifetimes
I think fanfiction as a medium is different enough from mainstream literature in the tools it offers writers that it's a shame that it's not talked about more often. And it's not me saying "fanfic is better than books xD" because that sort of mindset is a symptom of people who aren't particularly well read in either medium. I'm just speaking of like... The little things you get to do with a fanfic that you genuinely can't really do in an original story.
I had a big fanfic in a previous fandom where one of the big reveals was the involvement of a kind of infamous villain, whose presence was built up to and foreshadowed through the whole fic until his reveal without ever mentioning his name, so that the name drop would be a gut punch. It worked especially well because of who the villain was and his presence in that fandom space specifically (it's very complicated) and if it was an original story this reveal wouldn't work at all the way it was written in the fic. Because if you don't have a predisposition to think about that character and his relationship to the hero in a very specific way, then just seeing their name won't do much to you; the reveal and the recontextualisation it pushes upon you hinges on your previous knowledge of the source material.
I think it's an interesting tool fanfic authors are given. One of my favorite fanfic of all time is partially a re-imagining of its source material's canon, and something it does is introduce antagonists much earlier in the story or deepen npcs' stories. It then works to evoke a tragic irony that again wouldn't work if you didn't know the source material, and it's something the author obviously has a lot of fun with.
You could call it cheap or a crutch and I mean, yeah, sure, it is a little bit: the fanfic relies on previously established emotional bonds and stakes to achieve its goal, and in some cases it saves the author from having to 'properly' build up its stakes. But I think it's INTERESTING that it has that tool at its disposal. I think it's a fun thing to play with and I think these built in expectations and emotional bonds are especially why I find story driven aus in particular to be fascinating in the amount of ways you can play with them. You know??

being late getting into a piece of media or joining a ‘dead’ fandom is not that bad actually cause even if it seems like the party is over there will always be people still celebrating and the decoration is still up and there’s a piece of cake reserved especially for you in the fridge you just have to come and enjoy it.
