I love that he read her writing.

- There were a few too many similes in it for my taste, but it definitely had a little Joseph Mitchell thing going for it, I liked it. - I’m surprised you even bothered to read it. - Are you?

I love that she smells books. :o)

I'm sorry, excuse me, did I just see you smell that book?

[sandy-s-d]

Agree with @masterandcommander25!

Love Honor...I also love writing fics with her in them. In my mind, Honor and Logan are each others' saving grace in their household growing up.

Honor Huntzberger deserves an award for existing because being her father’s eldest child (and daughter on top of that) must be a herculean task

I want to talk about this more once I’ve finished the series — or at least gotten further into it — but the fact that Buffy is the embodiment of the classical hero, carrying the weight of the world on her shoulders, and that she’s a woman, has everything to do with her relationship with Spike and the dynamic they develop in later seasons.

The classical hero has always been a male figure, and that comes with a whole set of expectations around how they handle social and romantic relationships. The classical hero’s mission is to save the world, pushing forward no matter what, but in the process, he gradually detaches from his humanity, becoming a symbol rather than a person. Buffy never does that. She is a weapon, yes, but she’s also a person. She’s a vessel and a subject. Buffy moves forward, but she also suffers, she cries, she feels: she experiences the hero’s journey while staying deeply connected to her emotional core.

That’s a rupture of the original archetype — a transgression — and her relationship with Spike is part of that transgression. Suddenly, the woman is the one saving the world, and the male partner becomes the supportive, nurturing figure traditionally coded as feminine. Buffy moves from Angel — who represents a more traditionally heteronormative archetype of stoic, emotionally repressed masculinity — to Spike, who embraces emotion and affection, who expresses his feelings openly, who doesn’t hesitate to take on the role of emotional support and care.

Spike doesn’t want to protect Buffy by locking her in a glass case or worshipping her from a distance. He wants to be her partner, someone she can lean on when things get tough, someone who’s there to carry part of the emotional weight. In that relationship, Buffy takes on a role traditionally assigned to men, and Spike takes on one traditionally assigned to women. He lets her be. He understands her duty and supports her in it. But more importantly, he embraces the politics of care — a burden that’s historically been placed on women. He understands his role as a consort. He knows that Buffy is the protagonist — and he’s happy to simply be her support system.

But again, I’m still working through my rewatch, when the really important moments come, I promise I’ll write a proper meta.

A Better Theory

Emily and Richard met at Yale. Richard was engaged to someone his family approved of, while Emily was the other woman. Richard broke his engagement to be with Emily. Maybe Rory and Logan are Emily and Richard, not Lorelei and Christopher.

And this is why we have to fix it for them...

Sophies meme | 2 of 5 quotes “I love you. You know that I love you. When I said that I was your boyfriend, I agreed to be faithful to you, which was a first for me. And I thought it was gonna be hard, but it wasn’t. Then I asked you to move in with me, I asked you to move in with me, and I thought that was gonna be hard, but it wasn’t.”

So very true!

Writing fic is 80% daydreaming 19% sitting with bad posture 1% typing

Writing

I've been writing again since December 2024, only this time I'm writing Gilmore Girls fanfic for the first time, focusing on Rory/Logan. It's been fun to write a different pairing and super weird to not write fic with a supernatural element to worry about. Plotting is easier and more straightforward! It's been a nice way to ease back into writing again.

Waiting for You is a little series of one-shots, and I've written a couple of shorter little fics with a few chapters.

And I've really been enjoying reading A Sky Full of Stars by @masterandcommander25 and Refrains of a Casual Relationship by Rolling Hollow.

I'm also considering continuing Soldiers of the Light because I hate that I left my fic unfinished like before when I took a break. Poor Spike and Buffy and the Scoobies are stuck in a post-apocalyptic world. There are actually several more chapters already written. I just need to find a way to finish it. I'll have to re-read the whole thing because that plot is more complicated.

Love this...
