( More about Angel episode Inside Out )Unrelatedly,
jennyo has a
quality post on Fred’s character, particularly her emotional maturity and lack thereof. Also, astute reviewers have pointed out that “Lies My Parents Told Me” is a better title than “Mothers and Sons” for
BtVS 7.17 because of the Buffy/Giles dynamic and mention
“Helpless”.
Thanks to
tmhsiao for the quote from Darla in the
Angel episode “Prodigal” (1.15):
What we once were informs all that we have become. Also,
truepenny theorizes (intelligently and convincingly) that getting vamped unleashes one’s Id. [
truepenny’s essay was written after the most recent
Buffy episode, “Lies My Parents Told Me,” and as such contains spoilers for that episode.]
Speaking of LMPTM, in
her entry,
djinanna says:
The First's threat is all *potential*, just as the potential Slayers are all *potential*. Is this a deliberate parallel? Is it a clue? Is it even relevant?
and
(He [Giles] really needs to be reunited with Ethan so that they can retire and raise bees or something....)
and
tsuki_no_bara adds to the latter:
and, uh, shag like minks....
silviakundera asserts that we've been here ["here" being Wood and his issues with Spike] already with Holtz on
Angel last season.
Let’s talk about Spike’s soul and what it means, or doesn’t. And then let’s read the
fic set at end of “Grave” that
hecatehatesthat mentions in that entry.
fox1013 has a great
beginning of a Dawn POV S7 fic.
Okay, i’m going now.
