buffy, a deeply closeted bisexual: wait, willow you were dating oz and now you're dating tara??? you can date men and women????
willow, a confused bisexual: no, I think I've just become a lesbian, is the information I'm getting that is very trustworthy
buffy, going back into the closet: ah, right, well I like men so definitely not what's going on with me when I think women are Neat
willow, also in the closet but differently: yeah, exactly, good thing we're not being given a bunch of inaccurate biphobic information to base our experiences off of
*buffy and willow shoot finger guns at each other, not knowing that this is code for being a bisexual*

Are we really going to ignore that fact that Oz's little cousin is a warewolf? And that his family treats it as a no big deal?

I'm sure people have said this a million times, but...
We really should have gotten some Angel and Anya interactions.
Angel just being completely baffled that Anya can talk about some of her former vengeance days so gleefully, when he, of course, feels so guilty about all of the things he's done.
And him also not understanding how a part of Anya longs to go back to being a vengeance demon/immortal, when he would give anything to turn human again.
They'd have some interesting conversations.
Boom has the two of them as friends--and, I mean, I do think if these two got to interact, they'd become friends, of course, because they do have a lot in common--but Boom did it wrong. Like Boom so often handles the Buffyverse wrong, imo.
Like, the one panel I saw was Anya being excited to see Angel again after so long, and saying how they'd reminisce on some of the people they killed together, and she'd give him this tea he liked.
And like I said above: Angel felt guilty about the stuff he did as Angelus! There would be no happy reminiscing on his part And if Anya knew Angel well--like this comic was trying to imply, I think--she wouldn't be saying this to him. And Angel didn't like human food (save for coffee). And they could have changed this about him for this comic AU, I suppose. Or had this be one of the few human foods he liked, or something. But it just seems like an example of how Boom can't write him right. At all.

It’s Freddie Prinze jr’s birthday! Naturally, that means I get a pass to watch Rebels and IKWYDLS.
((although, I do miss joking about how it was SMG’s husband’s birthday))

spuffy mamma mia au!
i was a bit apprehensive over posting snippets of my spuffy wips but fuck it LMAO -- so here's a teaser of my current obsession: writing a spuffy mamma mia au!
(nothing's set in stone for this one just yet, so things might change down the road)
special thanks to @qvnthesia for bearing with me when i virtually screamed to this fic to her and just being there when i lost my shit over spike like 24/7 LMAO. love you paps <3

“You always knew how to make an entrance,” mused Spike in his signature sexy leer, tongue curled behind his teeth.
It had, as horrifying as it sounds, made something dead inside her come to life. Scrambling to stand up, Buffy dismissed Angel’s offer to help her. I can do it myself, thank you very much! She snarked internally, huffing when strands of her hair seemed to conspire against her, falling in front of her eyes totally making her even more disheveled which is sooo not of the good. She’s before three of her exes for crying out loud!
Still feeling dizzy from her sudden fall from the rooftop, she stumbled and tried to catch her balance by leaning against the wall, fixing three of her nightmares with an intense glare that rivaled the heat of the sun.
“What are you doing here?”
The three men simultaneously shared a long look. Riley turned to respond to her curtly, but with an undertone of glee, “You told us to be here.”
And then Angel’s sharp accusation, “You didn’t tell me we had a kid.” As if it mattered to him, that if he knew she was pregnant with his child would make a difference. That he’d be willing to give up a life of wealth and prestige for a child.
Spike, surprisingly had chosen to be silent and settled to watch her with his knowing clear blue eyes that seemed to hold all the secrets and answers to the universe. Buffy didn’t know if she preferred quiet Spike or angry Spike. He’d always known how to read her—it comes with the territory, she supposed, as someone who knew who she really was before Iowa, before Ireland, before Greece.
“I so did not!” Buffy huffed angrily, crossing her arms over her chest. “You think I’d invite you—” She each gave the three men varying levels of looks she hoped conveyed both disgust and fury. “—here, in my home?”
“If not you then who would—”
The answer came barreling through the door, followed by a whimpering Andrew with tear tracks staining his swollen left cheek. “Hello, mom! I see you’ve met my guests.”

As everyone talks about returning to running their own webpages in light of the enshittification of Twitter/Reddit, I’d like to remind people of the horrors of some the style choices.
Tumblr media
I found this livejournal fanfic via a recommendation and the “cursive” font makes it completely unreadable in an altered state and barely readable while sober. Also the color of the background is the 1960s mustard yellow/green which is worse in nightlight/nightshift mode!
If there’s no easy way to turn off creator style no like how you can with Tumblr posts viewing it through dashboard or on Ao3 with the click of a button, then good website design matters so much.

*sighs in post mildly broke containment again* there's nothing wrong with reading willow as a lesbian, this is a piece of fiction, and the post I made took on a jokey tone for a reason and is ultimately more about underlying bi-erasure on tv than anything else kaybye ✌
#im watching btvs#jeepers creepers but btvs is bringing out the *taking it all very seriously in a very morally high-and-mighty kind of way* crowd#and i dont mean about shit that matters such as discussing racism or misogyny in fandom#just about whether you agree or dislike someone's read of a situation - move on my friend if you dont agree#i mean i could go on a rant about HOW the show portrayed willow-the-now-lesbian#(and while im at it why i hc buffy-the-apparent-heterosexual as bi too but nobody has disputed that part oddly enough)#but that would be an effort im truly not interested in expending on this day and possibly never and has been written before#im mostly just live-blogging and moving on#if im writing anything fanfic-wise it'll be about kendra and that'll be my full fandom contribution#ok but the ONE thing i'll mention is the fight willow has with tara which is one of the rare Ls for tara#where she basically admits that she's afraid this is a phase because willow has loved men/been with oz#and that's just an interesting fight from a meta perspective because the idea that bi women have to *choose a side*#and are consistently questioned and doubted by their lesbian partners#is a core element of biphobia within a gay relationship that many people can attest to#hell it's a big part of bisexual rep that is conscious of itself that at some point there's a plotline where the person is questioned#about their true loyalties and asked to take a side#btvs ofc is NOT conscious of this underlying tension and in fact i would argue is agreeing with tara that this is what needs to happen#for several other reasons as well#but literally people have WRITTEN about this im not saying anything bold and controversial here AND it doesnt take away#from lesbian willow reads to acknowledge the flawed approach of the show to her sexuality like come on#willow rosenberg

I knew going in that I wasn't going to enjoy it, but I'd forgotten quite how much I hate Bewitched, Bothered & Bewildered. It's close, but I think this might somehow be a worse episode than the much-maligned Go Fish. (Although I might change my mind when I actually get to that episode.)
In fact, I think this might be the first episode of the rewatch I can't bring myself to finish, and I suffered all the way through Teacher's Pet.

You know what I just realized. Angel's actions at the end of "Angel: After the Fall" resetting everything to how things were before the alleyway battle in NFA--and so L.A. didn't get sucked into Hell--of course means that Lorne wasn't in Hell anymore. No one was, of course.
But while they were in Hell (before the resetting happened) Lorne and Angel made amends and Lorne forgave him for everything that happened (Angel having Lorne kill Lindsey). And though everything got reset, everyone remembered having been in Hell.
So you'd think we would have seen Lorne in Angel & Faith, and Angel & Lorne interacting. And yet we don't see Lorne at all.

The person who said it was weird that I was watching Crazy Ex-Girlfriend for the 4th time was neyrotypical and my parents always acted like it was strange that I'd watch Nightmare Before Christmas over and over (they were also neurotypical). Most of my friends are neurodivergent and, like me, find rewatching and analyzing to be comforting. So I wondered if there was a correlation! Tell me why you do or don't rewatch in the tags and tell me what you've got playing on a loop!
