in tears why did giles never just. talk. to buffy. or any of the scoobies. I feel like buffy would've responded a lot better if he'd just tried to warn her about older men rather than oh vampire bad. who CARES if he's a vampire angel treats giles like an equal and considers all of buffy's friends "children" INCLUDING HER when he decides he needs to make a point about how he's smarter/more mature than her. it actually makes me feel crazy why did THAT not seem to bother giles !!!!

#I get he's not ACTUALLY her dad but he cares about her so much??#and he was right there???#he could've said SOMETHING man #no I don't think buffy would've listened but I think it would've been good for her to internalize #it's not just buffy that needed that lesson btw I think pretty much all the scoobies get themselves involved in some weird shit #one of my friends made an interesting point actually that it makes sense angel wouldn't care thanks to when he's from #BUT GILES SHOULD'VE!!!!!!!#in fact it eeks me sooo much how chill giles is about bangel and wesdelia (?)#IDC IF SHE'S 18 THAT IS SO FLIMSY AND WEIRD!!!!#ik wes was WILDLY immature so it kinda evens out but it's. no. I still don't like it #there's an uncomfortable amount of off power dynamics in the early seasons honestly. like off the top of my head?#teacher's pet. I robot you jane perhaps. I only have eyes for you. all of bangel. wesdelia kinda gets a pass but not by much #also giles saying he missed angel in s7 always makes me wanna strangle him #I love pre-s4 giles but he should NOT have been their only trusted adult dear lord #someone please make a better post than me I complain about this every so often to poor queen but it actually drives me out of my mind #rupert giles #btvs #buffy the vampire slayer
