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...

"Great muppety Odin, I miss that sex"
Hee! I loved that line, 'cause it's like, Buffy doesn't miss Spike himself, just the sex. Hee!

...aaaand of course you're a Spike fan, so you wouldn't feel that way. Sorry. I'm one of those fans that blame Spike for taking over season 7 and marginalizing the other characters' arcs. So I love that Buffy misses the gang, but not Spike. It makes me feel vindicated, and like Joss is acknowledging my little section of the fandom, because that's how my self-centred little mind works, and I can't control my glee.

If you find me annoying and choose to ignore this, I will understand.

Considering Joss's words in a recent interview about how Spike means so much to Buffy, I highly doubt it was his intention for you to interpret that line that way. But hey, if that's what you want to believe, knock yourself out. Just as long as you don't expect everyone else to share the same view. :P

"if that's what you want to believe, knock yourself out."
Thanks. I will. Wheeeee! 8D ...

"Just as long as you don't expect everyone else to share the same view"
'Course not. Not right away at least... *sneaks away to work on plan to brainwash all of fandom*

;)

It's a little embarrassing how much brouhaha this one little ambiguous comment has made. Joss is such a fucker if that was intentional. LOL.

[swsa.livejournal.com]

Oh, it was TOTALLY intentional. He knows that one comment is going to set off the Spuffy fans into writing Buffy POV fic all about her Spike-filled dreams, while simultaneously making B/A shippers and Spike haters find a way to explain that line away to NOT be about Spike. Heee.

The more things change, the more they stay the same. :0D

Wordy McWord! And now I have the phrase 'Muppety Odin' to add to my vocabulary! *g*

I'm not particularly bothered to be honest... it's just such a silly route to go. And it can be wanked any way people like, which is nice. So - no ignoring necessary, esp since the comic books will apparently have very little Spike & Angel.
