Happy birthday ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
settiai and poicelle_ailin!! I hope you both have fantastic birthdays.
I saw bits and pieces of Buffy season five yesterday and I don't think I've ever realized how good that season really is. Of course, there's the Dawn thing and well... the "We need to do something with Spike, so we make him in love with Buffy"-deal. Not that the Spuffy moments in season five was necissarily bad (I don't even know if I ship Buffy/Angel anymore *hides* More notes on that will come) but it just isn't my cup of tea right now. I think the "Spuffy = bad" mood sort of stuck in me, which can sort of worry me since I'm a huge thinker and I've just read a book about the world war two. So you can guess just exactly what it is that I'm thinking.
Anyway. I said I'm not sure if I ship Buffy/Angel anymore, I enjoy them - yes, but I don't know if there's a point anymore. The show is amazing and their relationship was adorable, but in later seasons of Angel- their relationship seems tainted. You never really get any answers to the Buffy/Angel saga and you don't really get any answers to the Buffy/Spike saga either. Which is frustrating because it seems as if when a show tries to make all the fans get along, and get both relationship a realistic future, everything gets messed up. Example: In "Chosen" Buffy starts the episode by saying to Angel that there's still a chance for the two of them, just not now. And she ends the episode by saying she loves Spike. Of course, as I'm writing this along I sort of get that you can do that, you can love someone and you can love another on the same time. But the whole ship discussion/wars are of course, sort of outdated now since the Buffy fandom has been more or less dead for a while now, but the whole Spuffy vs. Bangel thing sort of etches to me sometimes.
I try to like both, but since I don't down season six, I haven't rewatched the most Spuffy action since I was in my "Spuffy, ewww" phase. So for me to start genuinely like the Spuffy moments, will be slim to none. So right now, I guess the whole "Spuffy vs. Bangel" thing is like a zit in my eye. It distracts my tv watching and I guess that's why, recently, I start to enjoy anything-but-canon couples like Faith/Giles (come on, the cute comment when Faith was introduced), Anya/Giles, Faith/Angel(us) or so on. I feel sorta sad for Faith though, since I seem only to pair her up with the "Buffy castoffs" (Angel, Spike, Xander) so therefore Faith/Giles seems like the ideal pairing right now. LMAO.
Where didremember_nomore, go? :( When people delete their journals I worry.
