This. This makes be cry. Mostly cause it’s true and life is unfair so why for the love of god fiction decides to be unfair too

When I think about it, I think my favourite thing about Spike is that he does the work, you know? He's the only significant man in Buffy's life, let alone of her love interests, that actually takes a good, hard look at himself and decides that he needs to be better.

Angel, at least for the duration of his tenure on BtVS, doesn't change. He remains high-handed and paternalistic for the entirety of his relationship with Buffy, unilaterally making decisions 'for her own good' and ignoring what she, herself, wants. He makes the decisions. He doesn't accept when Buffy tries to. Literally. He does not accept her breaking up with him until it's time for him to break up with her.

Riley remains a misogynistic jerk who has an inferiority complex when it comes to his girlfriend. He also abdicates responsibility for his own damn actions when they all culminate in his life exploding in his face, and skips town without ever actually examining how he landed in that position. It's just Buffy's Fault, with no examination of his own culpability or thought processes.

Giles doubles down on his terrible decisions, especially in Season 6 onwards. He makes wrong call after wrong call, and gets offended when Buffy doesn't trust him anymore after he actively betrays her. Instead of doing anything to earn that trust back, he just fully turns on Buffy completely in Empty Places, and the fractures in their relationship are never addressed afterwards.

Less said about Xander, the happier I'll be. He starts the series as an entitled little shit and he ends the series not much better.

Hank abandons her. He just straight up peaces out and is never any help to Buffy, ever.

Spike, on the other hand, reaches his lowest point due to the implosion of his relationship with Buffy. In response, he realises that there's something he lacks, something he could do to be better, and then he does it. Not only does he do it--once it's done, he recognises that his feelings are his own problem and doesn't burden Buffy with them at all. He becomes a steady, nonjudgemental support when she needs it most, and asks nothing of her for it. He expresses his love with no anticipation of reciprocation, just states it as fact and explicitly states that he's not asking for anything in return. He just loves her. For her. He doesn't need her to love him back. Yeah, it would be nice, but that's not the point. He changes for and because of her. Loving her transforms him at a fundamental level, and he is a better person for it. None of that is a burden he places on Buffy.

Accountability is so attractive in a man. So is emotional vulnerability and passion, which is only something she really gets from Spike. The other men in her life are so wrapped up in themselves or their own need to be right/in control, and it actively harms her.

Yeah, Spike is physically very pretty; but it's his invisible qualities that make him as attractive as he is. There's a reason he's so beloved while other characters have a more mixed (or even negative) reception, and it has very little to do with the cheekbones.

Why does Spuffy hurt so good and so bad at the same time?

I just want them to be happy, drink hot cocoa, parent dawn, patrol together, hold each other, fuck until they demolish a house and face all and any apocalypse together hand in hand preferably with neither of them dying.

you’re already in love, damn it. can you stop sticking sticks in your own wheels and let yourselves be happy while you still can?

i think i’m going to cry

I’ve always been a somewhat relatively enthusiastic Hayffie shipper thanks to the Hunger Games movies, but recently I fell into the Hayffie spiral and I cannot stop. I’ve read so much, I’ve scrolled through so much art, I think of them before I go to sleep. Welcome to another non-canon OTP, I guess. As if I don’t have enough already 😄

(PS yes, I know that there’s relatively recent SotR book. And no, I do not even remotely know the plot aside from it being Haymitch’s games and I did not read it. All my Hayffie knowledge is based on the original trilogy both books and movies, so I did not look at them through the new lens. Yes, I know that there’s some ship wars now (kinda). No, i do not care 🙂).

I’m totally Zoey, but my favorite is Mira, so what does it say about me?

[mysticpenguincreation]

so i need to go to the shop and get a microwave. i preordered and i just need to pay and then my friend will help me carry it home.

it’s such a trivial task, but i’m filled with so much dread. the thought of a social interaction with a person i’ve never met before, someone who i probably won’t ever meet again fills me with so much dread, i feel like my lungs are about to collapse.

i need my friend more to go with me to the store and be my moral support rather than help me with heavy lifting 😄

i’m so tired of this never ending circle of anxiety

[mysticpenguincreation]

This post made me want to rewatch the third season 😂❤️

Just a reminder that Penelope managed to ruin this man's whole summer because she didn't respond to his letters.

Just stumbled upon Physical 100 thanks to Cha HuynSeung. As a huge fan of MTV The Challenge: physical show where 70% of the episode isn’t taken over by drama? Holy shit!

[mysticpenguincreation]

Joo Yeojeong’s responses are as unhinged as Moon Dongeun’s. I think he’s the only person who can leave her flabbergasted now (in all the best ways possible)

[mysticpenguincreation]

Ummmm sooo…

If i remember correctly it would be a spoiler, but…

I don’t remember the doll moving at all. Now I check in ep 4 and the doll moved?! It creeped me the f out more than anything that was happening in Scarlet Hollow.

If it’s not something new than I need pills to keep my memory. If it’s new, then great job - I almost got a heart attack

I’m so sorry but Oscar is so hot. I choose Reese most of the runs because I fold before him like a house of cards. But man, Oscar makes it a bit hard for me. So (most often than not) I have two saves for each run: one is Oscar route and another one is Reese 😅

I’ve been listening to Epic The Musical on repeat for some time now. So every time I go from Would you fall in love with me again right back to The Horse and the Infant I’m smacked right in the face with how much shit happened to these people.

Just imagine the time when Odys biggest problem and dilemma was dropping the baby.

Also Jorge and everyone involved in the production are geniuses. To hear the same themes throughout the musical and to hear how they evolve and change to the point of being something completely different even though it’s still the same melody for specific characters/scenes?

I think Epic broke my brain in the best way possible.
