i think i was in heaven

Not the prettiest gifset but let me  just talk about Willow and Giles for a sec because i love them both but they parallel each other so well in the addiction to magic parts of them even though with Giles it’s a back story thing that only ever gets a side mention

Giles started out straight before dabbling in magic and realising it wasn’t enough. He had to go for the darker stuff and mix with powers way out of his control

Which is why (s2-3 in particular) Giles doesn’t want Willow practising witchcraft or doing the more powerful spells. In fact he begins to get ANGRY when he hears about the spells she has been practising in a bid to get her to stop

But she continues and like Ripper, wants more, in s6 there isn’t much more her powers can develop... until she finds Rack

And it’s so interesting that the throwaway line from s5 implying that Giles paid vampires to feed off him at this power crazy time of his life only shows how desperate he was for power, willing to put his life at risk with a vampire just like Willow puts her life on the Rack for that demon warlocky type thing

And even if Willow had decided to listen to Giles in the season  6 opener when he tells her she is messing with things beyond her control she would have known the stuff she was getting into was uber bad and instead of her continually saying she can handle it she could have been helped 

Giles went too far and stopped because he was messing with something beyond his control, Willow went too far but it was never far enough for her so she kept pushing till it was too late
