elisi: Edwin and Charles (VM - I need a favour by eyesthatslay)
Does anyone have or know of (or would be willing to make?) an icon of Buffy, from when she's doing her big speech at the end of 'Bring on the Night', with this quote:

I'm standing on the mouth of hell, and it is gonna swallow me whole. And it'll choke on me.

(A lot of good caps here)


ETA: Many thanks to [livejournal.com profile] ibmiller, [livejournal.com profile] _jems_ (*headdesk*), and Stephen Tempest!

And yes there might be a little post coming at some point. Nothing special, just the usual rambling. But you don't seem to mind...

Wshing a Happy Birthday to two lovely ladies, both of whom are wonderful mothers and wonderful writers: [livejournal.com profile] rhiannonhero and [livejournal.com profile] spuffyduds - I hope you both get thoroughly spoiled! :)

elisi: Edwin and Charles (The beginning by awmp)
This is my way of avoiding complaining about having a cold and children being awkward...

In AOQ's 'Never Leave Me' post, I left a comment focussing on the whole 'I love you' Vs 'I believe in you', that I mentioned the other day, ending with this bit:

Spike in essence asks the same question, and Buffy comes out with a
resounding 'Yes'. He *is* worth saving. Not because of any feelings she
might have, but for his own sake. The look on his face is amazing.

And I love that. To me, that's more important that a world full of 'I
love you's, and it's one of the reasons Spike/Buffy is so much more
satisfying to me than Buffy/Angel. Don't get me wrong, B/A is a great
story, in all its doomed glory, but take away the love and what's left?


Someone else replied to my comment with quite a few good thoughts, but then went on to say this:

But to answer your question, take the love out of Buffy/Angel and what
you have is Buffy/Spike.


Not surprisingly, this nearly made my brain implode. Here is my response, re-posted mostly for my own convenience, although feel free to read (unless of course you feel bored to tears by this subject, which wouldn't be surprising).

And now I'm going to go to bed. *yawns*

Oh and pardon bad grammar etc. I know it jumps between past and present like a frog on a pogo stick.
