the parallels between shawn and yang are IN-FUCKING-SANE! an only child who’s father wanted them to be the spitting image of him; a father who was never satisfied with their work and always found a reason to shun them. a father that make growing up into a good person hard/a father that made growing up into a bad person easy. yang loves shawn because he’s what she could’ve been if she rose above her father’s teachings. and shawn despises her even after she saved his life because she’s every bad part of himself he couldn’t shake from his childhood. yang takes a picture with shawn to remind her of the goodness in her; shawn hates her because she’s everything he’s scared that he is.

"Why would you steal a baby?!"

... Girl do you know who you married? That's Rumplestiltskin. The man whose original fairytale is literally about taking someone else's baby.

watched s5ep15 and 16 and having thoughts about the dynamic of faith and buffy. they're the only ones who understand each other. they dont know each other at all. they have lived the same terrible burden the same pressures and yet not at all. buffy wants faith to be responsible and serious but buffy hates doing it, she knows it is hard and painful and terrible and eventually she gives it up and is devastated when they bring her back to keep doing it. faith just wants to live. faith wants to love and be loved but she doesnt know how and she's jealous and hurt and upset and wants to be listened to but she doesnt listen and she doesnt let herself care and she doesnt let other people care for her.

the fact that they both directly experience each other's lives. that buffy sees how unfairly treated faith is, that no one listens to her, that they are just going to kill her. i think there should have been more of the scooby gang putting pressure on faith (thinking she's buffy) but even without that at the end faith understands that fighting bad guys and saving people is buffy's job. that it should be their job. she saves the girl at the club but she also goes back. she goes to the church when she hears people are in trouble. she knows that, at the very least as buffy, it is her responsibility to do something. that she cant just leave.

but shes still afraid and doesnt know what buffy thinks and feels guilt and hate and sadness and loneliness. so she hits buffy first, before buffy can hit her, before she can lose again, hit first so you dont get hit. thats how she's lived. and then buffy swaps them back and she has to be herself again. her plan has been foiled and her head is racing and she's lost again and she doesnt know what to do other than run. and buffy doesnt know what to do but let her. one of the few people who can match her. someone she cares about so much and yet hates and fears so much. an example of all the ways she could go wrong. an example of all the ways the world could have done her wrong. i love them

Me: I'll take a bath and watch the next episode while I'm at it.

BJ immediately:

Me: Never mind I can't watch this filthy behavior while I'm getting clean
