Eternal Spuffy...
8 March 2008 01:53 pmYou know how you love something, but because life is busy and there are so many new shiny things you just kinda neglect it? And then something comes along and suddenly you get completely overwhelmed all over again? That just happened to me with Spuffy.
I followed a fic rec by![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
wesleysgirl and just... drowned. A lot of you probably know this story already, but somehow I'd never read it - despite it being on All About Spike:
Super Food World by Valeri X.
It is such a simple premise - Spike & Buffy go shopping - and yet it has everything that made them, and their S6 relationship, great. It made me laugh so hard I had tears in my eyes, and also made me ache so, so badly.
And speaking of Spuffy, then in case there is someone out there who hasn't readthe_royal_anna's post on S6 Buffy and Spike, then they should do so now. Because the complexity and depth of this relationship never stops taking my breath away. If could choose only one season of BtVS to keep, it'd probably be S6.
This also got me thinking about the comics, but I'll spare you all my thoughts. I'll only say this:
Spuffy is an ocean.
Butsu is a puddle.
Comparing the two is quite frankly insulting - they might both contain water, but that is as far as it goes.
(This is not an attack on anyone in particular, and I think s8 is finally beginning to be fun, but Buffy/Immortal has more depth. Or at least it will once I'm done writing them. ;) *pets new plotbunny*)
