A quick hello...

[elisi]

Weekends are *not* good for LJ! Too much family time, too little me time (of course I am incredibly lucky to have a wonderful family etc. But...)

Anyway, I came to ask if anyone knows of a Spike & The Coat icon? (As in, Spike walking along wearing The Coat, all swirly and stuff.) One that makes you go 'Spike/Coat OTP4eva!OMG!' (No text necessary btw), I don't have one, which I'm beginning to realise is v. bad. Because I want one. (Or maybe something like this, but without the vamp face...)

And a small fannish thought for the day. I cannot count the ways in which I love ‘First Date’, and I’m not about to start counting. All I’ll mention is the Buffy and Spike’s tandem explaining to Giles about the chip. Because it is such a wonderful evocation of their tandem lying to Joyce back in ‘Becoming’

Buffy is even wearing identical hats!






ETA: You could also just check out the brilliant icon that I'm using! (By the_royal_anna!)

Great observation. And, she wore the exact "Becoming" hat in "Checkpoint." Here, look:



Spring Summers wrote about its significance in her excellent review of Checkpoint, also. Check it out!

Yay! More hat-continuity! :)

And thanks for the link, it's been forever since I read Spring Summers and I'd completely forgotten the hat-bit!
