Some Spuffy (and B/A) thoughts....
We watched 'Bad Eggs' the night before last (Darcy said lets watch Buffy, I said which one, and he got impatient, pulled out a random disk from a random DVD box and said the fourth one on this. Which was 'Bad Eggs'.)
Aaaaanyway, the B/A scenes are all schmoop and kisses and they're just so sweet and tragic (c'mon! Who hasn't been in love and felt like that?). This scene especially just kills me:
ANGEL: (swallows) You really don't care what happens a year from now? Five years from now?
BUFFY: Angel, when I look into the future, a-a... all I see is you! All I want is you.
ANGEL: I know the feeling.
He reaches down to kiss her. He finds her lips and she responds. They kiss more and more passionately. The camera pans away from them and across a gravestone that reads 'In Loving Memory'.
The next episode is 'Surprise'... And the thing is, even though Angel will come back from hell and all that, they will *never* be as happy together as they are in this episode (or OK, the end of the next one, but you know what I mean). Ever. They get to the top and then it's all downhill - they can never get back up.
But Spike/Buffy - that's a different thing altogether. Their story *ends* at the top - it starts out ugly and messy and twisted and slowly, slowly gets more beautiful.
So although I want Spike and Buffy to end up together, in a way it doesn't matter. Because their ending was perfect.
Finally I'm going to share this song from
stoney321's Buffy Playlist, because it is the *perfect* song for their last scene: Brighter Than Sunshine.
Brighter Than Sunshine
I never understood before
I never knew what love was for
My heart was broke, my head was sore
What a feeling
Tied up in ancient history
I didn't believe in destiny
I look up you're standing next to me
What a feeling
What a feeling in my soul
Love burns brighter than sunshine
Brighter than sunshine
Let the rain fall, I don't care
I'm yours and suddenly you're mine
Suddenly you're mine
and it's brighter than sunshine
I never saw it happening
I'd given up and given in
I just couldn't take the hurt again
What a feeling
I didn't have the strength to fight
suddenly you seemed so right
Me and you
What a feeling
What a feeling in my soul
Love burns brighter than sunshine
It's brighter than sunshine
Let the rain fall, I don't care
I'm yours and suddenly you're mine
Suddenly you're mine
It's brighter than the sun
It's brighter than the sun
It's brighter than the sun, sun, shine.
Love will remain a mystery
But give me your hand and you will see
Your heart is keeping time with me
What a feeling in my soul
Love burns brighter than sunshine
It's brighter than sunshine
Let the rain fall, I don't care
I'm yours and suddenly you're mine
Suddenly you're mine
I got a feeling in my soul ...
