BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER 6x19 | “Seeing Red” 

[layer-of-slayers]

#as a Dawn Fan^TM #i really really love her relationship to tillow. like obviously i am no. 1 fan of the spike/dawn relationship #and everything it carries. but people really like to raise up spike as dawn's caretaker during The Summer #but the throughline that is dawn living with tillow and tara making the pancakes and their little impromptu family. #and how dawn is the main one carrying that dynamic after buffy is back.she's still SO invested in the family they built while buffy was gon #this scene in SR really sets up the gut punch that is dawn's reaction to tara in Villains #bc buffy is dawn's sister. but honestly so are tara and willow at this point. dawn's support system is all of buffy's friends but #particularly a special place for tara/willow/babysitter spike (op's tags)
