what died didn’t stay dead

I've had bangel on the mind recently, and... idk what they could've done exactly but ohhh do I wish the show had gone more into the fact buffy still loved angel when he was evil. she hated that she loved him, but she did. and he the same. these are not my usual toys I don't know how to make them dance but smth smth about how their love makes each other worse, how they're unhealthy and utterly devoted even when it's ruining them. and I want it to be ruining them. which I'm aware is kind of the point of s3 breakup but also I need it to be Worse

Why do we always get angry men with repressed gay desires. What about angry women with repressed gay desires huh. We need more faith lehanes in this world 😌

btw the "women aren't written in a compelling way" argument quickly falls flat when the people who say these things also happen to be fans of MEN who aren't written well. you can argue that its the system which is misogynistic all you want, but drooling over a gimmick-y trope-y male character a second after tells me all i need to know

reblog game tell me a girl character youre obsessed with (men you headcanon as women are not allowed)

"character deserved better" (but they were never going to get it that's the stuff great tragedies are made of) vs "character deserved better" (but the writers really blew it)

so unfortunate that lost falls into the trap of women having nonsensical and innate “maternal instincts” bc it would’ve been so interesting to me to see kate struggle with being a parent to aaron. like this is the woman who drugged and left her husband after a pregnancy SCARE. her relationship to motherhood would be a lot more complicated than what’s shown on screen imo

I'm sure this has been pointed out many times before but I loooove that buffy consistently wears white when she's about to sacrifice herself/change something fundamental about the world and in turn herself. she wears it both times she dies, she wears it when she's confronting adam and tearing down the initiative, she wears it in the season finale when she changes the world forever while sacrificing sunnydale. I'm not sure if it's conscious after prophecy girl but it's a detail I love.

something's fuckin wrong with me dude
