Fascinated by the idea that Buffy and Spike both think they’re the monsterfucker of the relationship.

"Then Spike and Buffy, too angry and shocked to deal with Willow now, start to help Dawn away."

"Buffy looks back. Torn. She and Spike meet eyes. He understands, moves away with Dawn."

— BtVS, Wrecked (6x10) shooting script ✍️📝

***

Beyond the obvious tragic turn of events in this scene for both Dawn and Willow, I absolutely love how Buffy and Spike were a unit in this, and how even the shooting script emphasizes this. He’s as angry as Buffy is and shows true care about Dawn’s well being. This is something I love about their relationship, because Buffy actually has someone to rely on when it comes to the people she loves. And despite their morning after scene and all the horrible things she said in an attempt to escape the reality of what had happened, her attitude in this moment of tragedy and seriousness tells us two things:

1) she trusts Spike with the most important person in her life, which is really telling us something,

2) they actually understand each other without even talking.

This has such a deep meaning. Buffy can assume that Spike is going to take care of Dawn, because she knows he cares, and knows he's going to back her up. Actually, she saw it first hand at the Summers house when she came back to life and saw Spike yelling at Dawn for running away, out of his sight. Spike cares.

And that’s what makes their relationship in this season interesting and more than surfaced-level. Because you have to catch these little moments to realize how much Buffy feels more for him than what she lets on and how aware she is of the complexity of Spike. In these moments she's not trying to reject what she feels for him as a defense mechanism, she actually treats him like a man.

Still thinking about them every moment of every day.

"What a wicked game you play, to make me feel this way

What a wicked thing to do, to let me dream of you

What a wicked thing to say, you never felt this way

What a wicked thing to do, to make me dream of you

And I don't wanna fall in love

No, I don't wanna fall in love

With you..." ❤️‍🔥

Just checking in on my Buffy friends…are yall well with this weeks news?!?!

[spuffybot]

one of the many insane things about fool for love is that they were like “how do we work a Spike Backstory episode into the main narrative” and what they came up with is “buffy needs to know more about her own history and identity and the only way for her to know more about herself is for him to tell her” like hmmmmmm HMMMMMMMMMMMM
