"Willow walked with Buffy down the corridor as students bustled around them. She asked, 'You don't think Angel would have gone after the Judge himself, do you?'
'No. He'd know better than that. Maybe he just needed... I don't know.'
I can't tell her I slept with him, Buffy thought. I can't tell anyone. What would they think? What is he thinking? Where is he? 'I just wish he'd contact me. I need to talk to him.'" - The Angel Chronicles vol. 3
Bangel and Spuffy parallels. But a sad ones here, where Buffy feels like she can't tell anyone that she's sleeping with Angel or Spike:(
My mom is making me watch Buffy the vampire slayer because our summer theme is “vampires” apparently? (Her words not mine) but anyways we just got to season 2 and Angel is just the saddest little guy to ever exist oh my god all of S2E1 he looks like he’s about to cry can someone go help him please??? He’s such a guy I need to give him a blanket or something he’s got wet cat energy
Angel's series finale (2004's Not Fade Away, 5X22) aired 20 years ago today (only one week before the start of Joss Whedon's run on Astonishing X-Men with John Cassaday). Feel old yet ?
still thinking about how pike is a way better love interest than angel (and spike) and should have followed buffy to sunnydale.... mentally rewriting buffy season 1
Characters: Angel (BtVS), Riley Finn, Buffy Summers, Lindsey McDonald (AtS), Spike (BtVS), Wesley Wyndam-Pryce, Cordelia Chase, Charles Gunn, Darla (Buffy the Vampire Slayer), Other Buffy the Vampire Slayer Characters, Lorne ︱Krevlornswath
Additional Tags: Alternate Universe - Canon Divergence, Angel doesn't fight Riley in 4x20 and this changes things, but not everything, Character Development, Developing Friendships, Male Friendship, Guilt, Regret, Protective Angel (BtVS), Forgiveness, Riley's going through a lot and Angel does his best to help, Angel always regrets how he treated Lindsey, And Spike, Basically feeling all the guilt here, Slight shuffling of timeline, for the plot, Redemption, and discussions about it, Near Death Experiences, Hugs, get these people some therapy
Summary: Angel didn't come to Sunnydale expecting to meet Riley Finn, but when he does he soon realises this is an insecure and deeply hurt young man who needs help more than anything else - and Angel's whole business is around helping people. His initial attempts to reach out are rebuffed, but after a near-death experience things change between them, and Angel becomes even more determined to help him - but in the end, he knows everyone has to make their own decisions, and all he can do is be there to support them...
the buffy writers making the 17 year old and her evil 200 year old vampire ex reenact a student teacher break up & she shoots him but he's not actually dead bc hes immortal and also its supposed to be romantic or whatever
"Miss You" by Sweetbox. Somewhat inspired by how one of the Buffy writers said that she thought one of the reasons Buffy and Angel really resonated with people in season three, was how even though they truly loved each other, that still wasn't enough to make it work for them. And sometimes that is the case with real life relationships too, of course.
TBH i am a buffy and spike dynamic enjoyer but to me like in MY post canon buffy fully thinks spikes stayed dead for like sooooooo long and she moves on and she hooks up with faith. and meanwhile spikes doing whatever shit he does in angel s5 IDK i haven’t seen it. and then eventually he finds buffy and it’s so super awkward between them because to ME at this point him and angel have this whole thing going on. and buffys gay. anyway so it’s weird between them for a bit but then idk they get attacked together and they’re forced to spend time together and they become friends again. just fr genuine besties. spikes probably still a little bit in love with buffy but that’s the way of all things. many such cases. the end. fuffy canon
