So - I went and spoiled myself...

Buffy: “Great muppety Odin, I miss that sex.”

*blinks*

I'm guessing this is Joss' way of saying that Buffy's grieving over Spike?

Now I want to be mad at him for being so ridiculous, but... *shakes head* This is the guy from whom came "I signalled her with my eyes!", which I wouldn't trade for all the world!

And anyway... it's just a comic book! I'm is still undecided... to buy or not to buy...

Mostly - I'm looking forward to all the great stuff that'll be posted and rec'd tomorrow. And Darcy having gone out I'll be able to finish polishing off my Phoenix ficlet. Life is good! Now I must just get children to bed...

I have to admit. I kind of "oooh"ed and jumped a bit when I saw that line, in like surprise and disbelief. So, I'm still kind of lost on why people are upset about it. I love it. It's totally shippy. And you can wank it away to be not about Spike, but since everyone's first reaction is "That has to be about Spike", I can't think that we're NOT meant to connect it to him. And I guess I'm shallow or easy to please, because I still don't see the bad in Buffy missing having sex with Spike. Heee.

I am, however, prepared for the possibility that at some point we'll find out that Buffy had a passionate fling with some random Watcher's Council guy 2 months before Issue #1. And at that point, I'll join everyone else in being pissed at Joss. Right now, I'm surprisingly pleased with him.

Oh I'm not upset! It's just the term 'Muppety Odin' that I can't wrap my head around - it makes me giggle in the same way TGiQ does.

And even the Spike-haters have to admmit that Buffy never had it as good as she did with Spike! *g* (And it buries the AR *completely*! Ha!)

We love to hate and hate to love... And hey - maybe she had a fling with Faith? Who knows...
