Buffy Rants
Iโm rewatching Buddy the Vampire Slayer! Iโve established a new headcanon about The Master. Heโs been magically trapped underground for 60 years. At least some of that time we can assume he was in some kind of supernatural sleep if we take Lukeโs โthe sleeper will wakeโ thing literally. Yet he knows pop culture references he shouldnโt. While thereโs always the whole โdonโt read too much into it, itโs just a funny lineโ explanation, I like the idea that The Master is watching tv and films down there.
โIโm a vampire sooo old Iโve got permanent vampire face, but Iโm still hella bored just waiting around in this sunken church. Bring me entertainment!โ
And his vamp minions not wanting to be tortured for The Masterโs amusement figure out how to get him a TV and VCR. (Iโm pretty sure DVDs hadnโt reach the height of their popularity in 1997 so it would be tapes.) And theyโre going to Blockbusters every night to get him new stuff to watch.

Spike and Jenny couldโve been besties. You canโt tell me if Jenny was around in season four she wouldnโt invite sad cat Spike in and give him blood mixed with booze. They could shit talk Angel, not to mention help each other out with their respective love lives, since Jenny is a stylish boss babe and Spike is a bookworm gentleman, meaning if they need to get a present for their partner they just have to hit each other up to get ideas. They๏ฟฝ๏ฟฝ๏ฟฝd play video games together like the nerds they are and tease each other to death
Bonus: you canโt tell me Jenny wouldโve let Faith stay in a motel room if she was around in season 3, meaning we get more friendship goals (plus Buffy gets two smoking hot partners, good for her)

Finding Peace Pt.3: Dance With Me (Spike x Y/N)
Request: No. Part 3 of the Multi fic.
Synopsis: Being a cursed slayer is hard. Harder when a vampire won't just leave you alone.
TW: None.
Word Count: 1.2k
Previous | Next
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sun has set and the air is thick with fog. Itโs eerily quiet in the cemetery. Not a creature to disturb the atmosphere. Inside the crypt there permeated a different energy.
Heavy sighs and lustful laughs can be heard. The sound of passionate kissing and groping is evident in the quiet of the night. Spike held you close to him on the sofa. Like a predator that caught his prey. You sighed in his mouth as you melded in a fiery storm of desire. His hands roamed your upper back, trying to unclasp your bra. You didnโt protest. Everything was going well. Too well. You came out for air. Heavy eye contact was made. As if you could communicate your deepest desires with one look.
As Spike was ready to go in for another round of erotic contact a loud noise was heard. He looked up but nothing was there. Another thud nearer still. He felt in a haze. As if something was amiss. As he looks back down at you, you disappear. His dream is broken. He wakes up with a gasp. Another dreaded dream of the cursed slayer. He felt surprised that his attention had shifted so suddenly to the new slayer. His heart still belonged to Buffy, or at least thatโs what he liked to believe. However, these heavy sensual dreams were more frequent as of late.
Outside y/n roamed the cemetery, hacking away at heavy foliage near the wooded area. Another night out on the hunt. If it could stop, that would be an improvement to y/n's life. Being cursed to hunt demons for over 1,000 years is less of a privilege and more of a punishment. The world may be safe, but y/n loses her grip on reality. Every day is the same. Wake up, go to work, wait till the sun sets and hunt. Everything was the same with a little twist, this time around. Spike being the lemon to her lemonade. She regarded him as an equal, someone that she enjoyed being around, but the lord knows he was bad for her. With his British accent, bravado and underlying poet heart. She had met many like him, but he had a spark to him. A light that others missed. She hadnโt seen him since their slow dance. You could say that tonight her hunt was partially focused on finding him again. ย
The cemetery was empty, quiet. The fog gave it an eerie ambiance. Y/n was guarded and ready for a fight. No, hoping for a fight. A crack in the distance catches her attention. She walks closer, hoping to encounter a demon. She pounces on a bush, wrestles with a branch or two to find nothing. A bunny on its way to its hide out.
"Attacking critters, are we?" A smug voice called from behind.
Y/n whips her head around to find him, leaning on a tombstone. She made a mental note of how ridiculously big the tombstone was. She feigned annoyance.
"You can never be too sure in the Hellmouth. What are you up to in this cryptic place." She brushed off the twigs and leaves that gathered in her hair.
"Vampire plus cemetery equals home."
She felt dumb. "Oh right, god forbid you find somewhere that doesn't smell like death"
"I like to call it musk." He grinned and walked closer. He fiddled with her hair, pulling the remaining twigs out of it. "Are we hunting tonight, cursed slayer?"
She snatched her hair back. "Itโs just slayer and yes. I heard that a big demon was hiding out here. You didn't see a skinny little rascal full of horns and pointy teeth, did ya?"
"The description paints a picture but none that Iโve seen. Why not entertain yourself with some vampires while you wait?"
"No can do. That's Buffy's territory. I just hunt demons now a days.โ
Spike raises his eyebrows, incredulous. โA retired slayer?"
"No, to loop back to your original point, Iโm a cursed slayer. Part of the ordeal is that I can't kill vampires and they can't kill me. So we're eternally stuck with each other. Poetic, ain't it?" Y/n makes a face of defeat.
Spike takes a breath, processing what you just said. He is thoroughly amused by your circumstances. Enthralled with the idea that you can't hurt him and he canโt hurt you. Equals.
He proceeds to laugh after a pause. "You're pathetic."
"Super rude." She pushes past him. She regrets seeking him out. Of course, regardless of how she feels about him, he is still evil.
He reaches back for her only to miss her hand. The slight touch sending shivers down his spine. What a nit he has been. If she were like Buffy, she wouldโve bantered with him. Picked a fight. Y/n is much less tolerant of his teasing.
Y/n walks with purpose deeper into the cemetery woods in search of the demon. Spike follows her.
"What do you want Spike? Let me be pathetic in peace." She's angry and hurt.
This is why you don't share about your curse. It makes you feel defective, useless. She thought.
He steps in front of you, hands up in a defensive stance. "Iโm sorry. I didn't mean it as an insult"
You laugh. "How else am I supposed to take it?"
"Iโm not used to people taking what I say to heart. I was expecting an insult back."
"Yes, please make fun of my suffering. I just love being eternal. If youโre looking for a fight, go somewhere else. Now move, this pathetic cursed slayer still has work to do."
As you walk away, he beats himself up internally. What a fucking idiot he's being. How can he reach out to you if he's too busy pushing you away? So, he follows you again without a word.
Screeching is heard from a couple of miles away. A pained scream from an unknown being. There's a clearing in the woods and an animal is seen thrashing and fighting for its life. Y/n crouches low, eyes on the demon feeding on the animal.
"That our guy?" Spike sneaks behind you.
You don't answer. You pull a sword from a sheath strapped to your back. You're ready.
You go in fast with a big swing. You miss by a small margin. The demon confronts you and you go at it. His slim form permits him to be agile while you're slightly slowed down by your weapon.
Frustrated, Spike gets tired of being on the sidelines. "Mind if I cut in." He slugs the demon unexpectedly.
The demon stumbles and before he can get his bearings you slice into the demonโs chest cavity. The demon screams out in pain. His body slumps with a disgusting thud.
"That was easy." Spike smirked.
You're frustrated with him for insulting you and the even more for cutting in. It was clear that coming out tonight was a mistake. You turn around and start to storm off, sword in hand. You hated how overly sensitive you felt around Spike. He was just another vampire. So, why were you so hurt by him?
"Wait..." Spike begs.
You swing your sword and place it inches away from his face. He steadies.
"I liked our dance the other night. It felt right. Can we do it again sometime?"
"Are you gonna insult me again?"
Spike pondered it. He liked getting under her skin. "Not unless it turns you on."
You laughed, you couldn't help it. This dolt of a vampire had you in a chokehold and you didn't know why.
"Do you know how to waltz?" She asked.
Spike grimaced. "A bit uppity for my taste but I'll do it." He pushes your sword away and steps closer "But only for you."

One thing I love about Spike is heโs so good for making a variety of queer headcanons about. Heโs a bisexual man. Heโs a he/him lesbian. Heโs transmasc. Sheโs transfem. Theyโre nonbinary.
And every option is a great way to explore his character.
#ofc pronouns donโt equal gender and all that#he can be anything#and like. maybe heโs a cishet man but. I donโt see it#spike btvs#buffy the vampire slayer#btvs#btvs headcanon

Smoking and Vampires Kill (Reader x Spike)
'A sigh escaped your mouth as you remember the feeling of being kissed by Spike and exhaling smoke. You knew if you didn't quit smoking and break up with Spike they would have both killed you in the end.'
Summary: Your vampire ex-boyfriend visits your house when he hears you've quit smoking to try and tempt you into giving in to both.
Word Count: 2048
Ao3 link: Ao3
At midnight on New Year's Eve you walked straight into the bathroom and flushed your last pack of cigarettes. While your heart leapt up into your throat for an instant as the panic started you breathed out a sigh of relief. Trembling, you washed your hands and went to go re-join the party and find your new boyfriend in the crowd.
It's Winter break and you've been back home from studying at UC Sunnydale for two weeks now. Coincidently, that's also the number of days gone without smoking. Counting them off like prison scratches on the wall. You've always wanted to quit smoking and it didn't help when you met Spike who would chain-smoke indefinitely without the death anxiety, for obvious reasons. You first met Spike outside the Bronze one evening when he asked you for a light. Not thinking anything of it, you said he could keep it remembering all the Clippers in your draw at home. It was a novelty Halloween design with a vampire motif and the words 'blood sucker' wrapped around it. You never liked it, vampires were never your favourite monster. He looked at you credulously, with his eyes opened and slightly frowning at the suggestion. His facial expression soon relaxed and he thanked you and said he'd maybe see you inside. You thought he was strange as he blew smoke rings and poked is finger through them while looking up wistfully at the night sky.
You would only ever see him loitering outside the Bronze back alley. Since you spent half the night going inside and outside to smoke you'd end up catching him before he disappeared into the night. Soon enough, he became the sole reason you went to the Bronze. How pathetic, you thought, wanting to shiver in the cold while waiting for a stranger to appear, only to exchange a few words, maybe share a cigarette and then say goodbye.
One night you were warming yourself up with your lighter after crushing out your second cigarette waiting for Spike. You didn't think he was going to show until you turned around to go inside and there he was, brooding over the top of you and grinning manically.
"Hey Y/N! I was just looking for you. What are you doing outside? You must be freezing. Here let's go back inside."
He shuffled you indoors and bought you a hot mulled wine to warm you up. All the time shaking his head and complaining you were going to catch a cold. You moved naturally with him and followed his lead. This was the first time you had ever even seen him inside the Bronze, let alone be in his company with others around. You both sat down at a table in the back where it was away from the main stage.
"I haven't seen you in a while" you said, instantly regretting admitting you noticed.
"Yeah, I've been busy," Spike said raising his eyebrows, obviously surprised. "But I had my lucky lighter with me to remind me of you," showing you the vampire lighter out of his pocket and playing with it on the table. This made you smile that he remembered. You talked all night together until closing and he walked you home, after insisting, saying there's bad people lurking around this time of night.
It would only be a few weeks into the relationship that he would reveal his true identity as a vampire. You immediately ended the relationship in your head when his face turned into that of a beast. You weren't scared at the change in his appearance and demeanour. You only wanted to leave the Bronze and never see him again. This was three months ago and you hadn't seen him since. Not even when you braved to go our to the Bronze a few weeks after the break-up. You slowly forgot, or pretended you had forgotten, about the mystery vampire when you went to UC Sunnydale. What with all the studying, coffee and cigarettes consuming your brain you could hardly think straight let alone remember basic English. But, now you were back home and the memories consumed you. Perhaps, you thought, you had unconsciously quit smoking to forget Spike.
It was midnight, day 15, and you were kept awake by the intense cravings and nausea. You felt dizzy and the whole world was spinning when you rested your head. So, you switched on your bedside light and tried some breathing exercises. In and out. It will all go away soon, you thought. You stared out your bedroom window and remembered all the memories you had with Spike. You both had stood huddled under his leather jacket while it rained with his arm wrapped around your shoulder as you shared a cigarette. With your faces almost touching, all it took was a slight turn and that was the first time you both kissed. The cigarette forgotten about, laid burning half finished on the ground outside the Bronze. A sigh escaped your mouth as you remember the feeling of being kissed by Spike and exhaling smoke. You knew if you didn't quit smoking and break up with Spike they would have both killed you in the end. There's nothing in this world that compares to having something you love which kills you in the process. You feel both weak and strong being defeated because it means you have something to overcome.
These were the thoughts racing through your head as the clock moved between the early hours of the morning. You heard your parents snoring down the hallway and closed your eyes trying to isolate your dad's breathing and snoring. This grounded you in the moment until you heard a sudden sound outside of a lighter spark and an inhale that was followed by a familiar scratchy cough and a curse word. Paralyzed, you sat frozen on your bed while your eyes bursted open like a cat's, hair sticking up on end. You drifted to your windowsill, hiding behind the curtain and peeping outside you saw Spike standing below your window. He was leaning up against a tree in your front yard and looking straight into your bedroom. Flustered you backed away from the window. It's too dark to tell but you don't think he looked angry or upset. Honestly, it looked like he was just minding his own business, loitering in the middle of the night. Except, he was staring into your window so he obviously hasn't forgotten about you. You remember he is unable to enter the house since you never formally invited him inside. But, that didn't make him go away as there he stood waiting outside your house.
Knowing that you would be unable to sleep unless you confronted him about his stalker behaviour you returned to the window. You opened both curtains and sat down on your window sill bench wrapping the blanket around you. Breathing a deep breath, you opened your window and finally looked down at Spike.
"I had nearly given up," he said waving his lit cigarette. "I thought I was going to have to smoke a whole packet before you'd open up."
"What are you doing here Spike?" you ask, grimacing as you see his bleached blonde hair shine in the moonlight. God, how did that ever attract you.
"A little birdy told me that you've quit smoking and I've just come to give my congrats. Nothing wrong with that, is there?" He asks, grinning innocently and putting his hands up in the air. He crushes the cigarette on the ground and proceeds to light another one. "You see, I've tried quitting every turn of the century but nothing's seemed to work and I was thinking, since you're doing so well and all, you'd let me in on the secret".
This is unbelievable, you thought. He's really going to stand there all night, smoking a packet of cigarettes, trying to get inside your head. The wind rustled the leaves above Spike. Maybe if it picks up it would blow out his cigarette or at least drown out his voice. You looked into Spike's eyes as he raised his eyebrows waiting for your response.
"If you really want to know Spike, sometimes to kill one addiction you have to kill another. Like, if you always smoke when you have a drink you might have to quit both. At least for me, breaking up with you has solved all kinds of problems in my life."
"Ouch that hurts, love. But I bet that's what you wanted. Though I know you don't mean a word. I'll throw you up a smoke, if you want. Must be craving one like mad stuck in your room watching me enjoy one." He said, blowing out a cloud of smoke. You hated to admit it but he was right. You would have liked a cigarette but you couldn't bow down and accept one from Spike of all people.
"Sure and while I'm at it I think I want to get back together, don't you?"
"Cool it with the sarcasm pet, I'm just teasing you. Honestly, I want to commend you for giving it up. There's no point ruining your body when it's your only one. But I've been missing you lately. You never come to the Bronze anymore."
Why doesn't he just start crying, you thought. If you would have known he'd be this clingy you would never have spoken to him. Maybe all those times you waited in the back alley for him, he was also waiting for the right time to walk up to you. You had never thought about that before. How long could he have been staring at me, watching me, waiting to come up to me and have a smoke. It creeped you out to think of yourself as prey and Spike the predator. But that's what he was, at the end of the day. He had never raised his hand or drawn your blood, but that doesn't mean he wasn't trying to kill you. He was toying with you, making you believe you were in love with him. You thought you could never love another person except for Spike. But, you had proved that wrong having been in a more than happy relationship for months now.
You no longer needed those things that were silently killing you. Neither Spike or cigarettes were welcome into your life anymore. You stared down at Spike, smoking his third cigarette now catching a glimpse of your old vampire lighter. If only you could have known how ironic it was when you handed it over to him, he must have loved it. Reflecting back on when you first started smoking in your teenage years, you didn't know smoking was going to corrupt your body and become an irrepressible addiction. You were naรฏve and thought it would lessen the monotony of everyday life and make you more mature. The same was true about going out with Spike, an older guy who happened to be much older than he looks. You know you shouldn't blame yourself for what you know now but it's hard when you're consumed with deep seated regret. Especially because your body desires and craves both Spike and smoking.
"Goodbye, Spike." you whisper, just loud enough to see his face start and mouth open.
You smile sincerely looking down at Spike remembering the times you had together. The nights he'd stay out with you after closing hours and talk with you all night. But, Spike is a double-edged sword and someone who, in the end, would kill you if he had the chance. You close the curtains not turning back and curl up into bed imagining his arm around you as you smoked together in the rain. It felt so real, like he was there in bed beside you, Though you knew it was impossible you curled up next to him in his smoked-stained leather jacket and felt his arms wrap around you.
"I guess that's another addiction I haven't gotten over." you say as you breath a sigh of release. Turning out your lamp, you toss and turn trying to sleep while memories of Spike lighting a cigarette and handing it over to you with a grin churns in your brain.

so a while ago I saw this post going around that talked about, like, when you're picking names for genderbent characters, sometimes just going with the masculine/feminine version of their original name isn't going to work because the context and connotation is completely wrong, and I was like yes! good! excellent! but it used some batfam characters as examples and the name it picked for a genderbent Damian went so completely against the tone of the name "Damian" that I immediately went "nope I'm doing this myself" so uh. here's the Storm version of a genderbent Batfam + reason why I chose those names.
Bruce "Brucie" Wayne -> Elizabeth "Beth" or "Lizzie/Bessie/Buffy" Wayne OR Berenice "Bunny" Wayne Elizabeth, at least in my head, feels like the same kind of "classical english name" as Bruce -- it's well-known, not particularly tied to any one era, relatively formal, and makes sense for an old-money family that doesn't really have East Coast WealthyTM names (think Throckmorton). "Beth" feels like a good parallel to "Bruce" in that it's a short, workaday name, and there are plenty of silly nicknames for the ditzy socialite side - I am enormously amused by the idea of Beth Wayne, Batwoman, going by Buffy in public, but if that's too much of a reference "Lizzie" or "Bessie" also exist. Berenice, meanwhile, is on here largely because of the nickname "Bunny", which is even better, imo, than Buffy. Bunny Wayne. It delights me. (Berenice is. fine. It's a bit fancier than Bruce, imo, which may or may not jive with the tone of any given fic, but it probably wouldn't be my go-to.)
Richard "Dick" Grayson -> Dorothy "Dotty" or "Dolly" Grayson I pulled this one directly from the original post bc I really do like it and think it works well - it's all about the nickname. It needs to be something that was once a legitimate, unremarkable name that is now a deeply ridiculous thing for someone to unironically call themselves and Dotty and/or Dolly are about as close as you can get to that without it being. actual slang for penis. "Dorothy" also works well as a counterpart for "Richard": a well-known, somewhat old-fashioned name but one that's still in use in modern times.
Cassandra "Cass" Cain/Wayne -> Cassander "Cas/Cass" Cain/Wayne This is one where I actually do think just using the masculine version of the original name works quite well. Cassandra is a name from Greek myth, and given Cass's history and parentage, I think that that context is one of the most important things about how that name works with her character: it's a non-English name, pulled from a culture commonly treated as a "lost golden age of civilization", it's long, it's complicated, it's elegant and a little bit strange. "Cassander" was the name of a king of Macedonia, according to behindthename.com it's the masculine version of the name Cassandra, and to me it has that same sense of slightly eerie elegance.
Jason "Jay" Todd -> Jessie "Jess" Todd This one is more about sound and and vibes than anything else - Jason is a well-known, plain, fairly workaday name that gives me the impression of someone who is strong and no-nonsense, and Jessie (not short for Jessica) gives me the same impression, especially if she habitually goes by Jess in public. Also, they're very sonically similar, and I liked that.
Stephanie "Steph" Brown -> Sidney "Sid" Brown ORย Zachary "Zach" Brown I'll be honest, I don't know nearly as much about Steph Brown as I would like to, so this one is based mostly off of sound, nickname quality, and some context - Stephanie sounds relatively modern, to me, it's a name that wouldn't fit a pre-1980's character (at the earliest). I went with "Sidney" and "Zachary" because they both also have that relatively modern feel with a well-known short form. "Sidney" is here because it starts with S and I think "Sid" fits okay? with the character despite being pretty sonically different from "Steph", "Zachary" because it has a closer sonic feel to "Stephanie" despite the name "Zach" being a little further, vibes-wise, from "Steph".
Timothy "Tim" Drake -> Cordelia "Cora" Drake OR Theresa "Tess" Drake Okay, okay, listen. I know "Cora" sounds nothing at all like "Tim" BUT. in my heart. the name fits the character better than any others I could find. "Timothy" feels very Victorian Boy's Name (or like. animated movie about talking animals set in the 1920's/30's) to me, and in modern days it's a longer, very formal name that's basically never used full-length, but the shorter form is plain, well-known, and still very common. "Cordelia" was also popular in the Victorian Era, would be a familiar-but-uncommon name to most people, and having "Cora" be the everyday name I feel just. fits the character well. Theresa is on here as a closer-sounding alternative because "Tess" is the closest I could get to "Tim" without just stealing Tamara's name (although come to think of it, in an "everyone is genderbent" world just swapping Tim and Tam's names would be very funny), and it has that same "common short form of an uncommon, slightly old-fashioned full name" element, and because "Tess" is a better fit for the character than the other two candidates ("Tori", short for Victoria, or "Tilly", short for Matilda - I liked those two because they give me the same vibes as Timothy, but the short form is the more important part).
Duke Thomas -> Blue Thomas Okay. I know, this sounds nothing at all like "Duke", but again. in my heart. same vibes. It's a name that's very modern-sounding without being Trendy, it's a single syllable, it's a name that is also a common word, and just. idk, they feel similar to me. A little bit cool (in multiple definitions of the word), a little bit laid-back, like they'd both work as nicknames for a 1920's jazz singer. You get it.
Damian Wayne -> Alecto Wayne Yes. I know. Hear me out on this. The original name proposed for a genderbent Damian is what prompted me to make this post in the first place (and no I'm not saying it because I don't want to rag on OP too much) because Damian, as a name, has. just. so much meaning and so much context that is so important to my perception of Damian as a character. It's a Greek name, meaning "the tamer" - it's clearly non-English - it's strange and unusual and stands out among a modern American crowd - it's older, darker, dangerous - it's pulled from a long-gone civilization that for a long, long time was treated as one of the pinnacles of human achievement and yet was just as fucked up as any other society and often was significantly more so - and, most importantly, it is such an Edgelord of a name. It's the name of the overdramatic bad guy in a vampire play (not movie. play.) who stands in a tower drinking blood out of a jeweled goblet. It's a name given to a baby who was raised by assassins and the grandchild of an immortal assassin bent on destroying civilization in an attempt to make the world better. Damian is a sharp prickly pompous brat of a ten-year-old and part of that is looking down at a little kid with a sword with a name like Damian. It's just. how do I even explain this. it makes perfect sense for the League to have named him like that and it makes perfect sense that part of his personality is trying to live up to that and yet he can't because he's like ten. I picked Alecto because of all the names I found, it was the only one that gave me that same, immediate sense of "this is the name of a villain in an overdone fantasy novel, with over-the-top Meaning and Symbolism". It sounds Sharp and Strong and while recognizable, it's clearly not something people are typically actually called. It's Greek, meaning "unceasing" - it's the name of one of the Furies. I just. It works. (I know it's gonna get read as a TLT reference. I don't care. It's use in TLT is exactly what I mean by "it's the name of the villain in an overdramatic fantasy novel" tbh).
#this is all just for fun lol if you don't like these ones don't @ me about it#if you have names you think work better please share! I want to hear them!#a lot of this I pulled from BehindtheName.com btw#great resource for finding names with a very specific sound to them#also re: buffy wayne#BVTS started airing in 1997 which means that timeline-wise if the fic is set in the ''modern day'' (aka 2020's/late 2010's)#then even at the very furthest edge of the Batman timeline where Damian is like. 14-15. BVTS would be a known pop-culture phenomenon#so yes the name ''Buffy'' would be known about#also I haven't yet figured out a name for Barbara so that's either gonna be a future post or just give me suggestions!#batman#batfam#batfamily#batfam headcanons

iโm buffy-the vampire slayer, and you are?
my drawings of how i interpret buffy (in 2024), and some headcanons i have about her!
but if you donโt wanna read any of that lemme know who i should do next! (i plan to start with the core scoobies and then move on to the scoobie sidekicks donโt worry!)
-i think she regularly shows up to school after a night of fighting just absolutely BUSTED. since she heals quickly though, sheโll be completely fine like two days later. everyone thinks sheโs faking it for attention. (she tells joyce that sheโs on the wrestling team)
-because smg AND michelle trachenburg are both jewish, i think itโs really funny if the summers family is as well (at least on one side since theyโve celebrated christmas in the show), but i think after buffy got told she was the chosen one and started wearing her crucifix, they just assumed that she. converted.
-bisexual, but she thinks โeveryone is a little bisexualโ
-in the movie, all of the slayers have the same birthmark around their collarbone, and even though they cut that from the show, i like to think that thatโs still a Thing. faith and kendra have it too.
-since we never know what any of them majored iโm at ucsc (i have ideas for ALL of them, trust.), i think because of her love for ice skating, she majored in dance. i think she knew that she wasnโt going to go anywhere college-wise or life-wise, she figured why the hell not, right?
-her favorite movie is pretty in pink. sheโs OBSESSED with molly ringwald.
-she cut willowโs hair for her! she used a youtube tutorial and willow was TERRIFIED but it turned out okay
-she introduced giles to wordscapes. heโs hooked.
-would live in bath and body works if she could
-favorite artists are sza, chappelle roan, olivia rodrigo, and doja cat
-obsessed with selfies. always does the โโ๏ธ๐โ
-one MILLION tardies. sheโs in detention every other day, and giles gets mad at her because she misses training
-still has nightmares about the master like she does in 2x1, as well as nightmares about every terrifying thing that has ever happened to her. they genuinely fuck her up, but since itโs such a common thing, she doesnโt feel like itโs worth it to tell anyone-she thinks sheโs exhausting to be around.
-eats raw cookie dough! might have worms!

Hi! I recently found Seven and now that fic is becoming one of my favourite parts of my nights (also Masquerade too). Your writing style and the way you capture the essence of both Buffy and Spike (and even Willow in Seven) is so fascinating to read because it is just them! But I have a question I don't know if others have made it, but how do you imagine the relationship between Buffy and Spike in the future? Like beyond Buffy's twenties.
Hi! And thank you!
My headcanon for Spuffy is pretty solid. I think Willow's resurrection spell made Buffy immortal -- like genuinely immortal. This is based on a couple of canonical hints, including the fact that she was shot in S6 and flatlined but bounced back the second the bullet was out without additional medical care. She was also given what the First described as "a mortal wound" in Chosen, and then not only survived but did some serious action hero leaping from building to building acrobatics within minutes. I think she's gotten some Deadpool-level regeneration powers as a result of that spell and Spike is pretty much the only person equipped to help her handle that once she learns the truth. We also know love, loyalty, and dedication are things Buffy and Spike share, so as they navigate the good and bad, I see them drawing strength from each other.
I also think, absent the resurrection spell, slayers don't age like regular humans. We know they have amazing healing powers and superhuman abilities; in order to be effective slayers, they need to remain in peak physical condition. Discounting the comics, which I do, we never see any slayer actually age to the point where they begin to physically decline. I think this is also part of the reason why the Cruciamentum exists; the Council relies on slayers being young and impressionable to keep them in line. As slayers age and grow stronger and more independent, they gain too much power and become harder to control, which is a problem for the Council as it could destabilize the power they cling to. The Cruciamentum doesn't really make sense beyond that -- the explanation we're given reeks of "party line we tout out to deflect criticism of a barbaric practice that enables us to keep control over someone we fear realizing she has the power."
So in terms of the mortality/immortality thing, my headcanon is pretty solid. In terms of how this affects Spuffy, I don't deny it would be a lot for Buffy to handle once she realizes she's not aging or dying when mortally wounded, but Spike is uniquely equipped to help her through the worst of it. I don't think their relationship would be without turmoil and they'd definitely fight/get on each other's nerves/swear each other off in the heat of the moment, but they also love each other and know each other in a way that few people get to experience, and ultimately, they're not happy unless they're together.

...The way i predicted the fact that any artists who draw/headcanon Mr. Crawling as a muscular guy just to get dogpiled by a bunch of "hE aIn'T thAt bUfF" or shit is quite (unfortunately) expected. Especially on Tiktok of course, a hellscape where people COMPLAIN about ANYTHING an artist does
#txt#????ร?ร?รท?รท?#tbh tiktok users become borderline annoying/furious when a ghost man is being drawn as big & buffy is never not funny yet frustating to me#like i get that he's not that canonically buff in the game but HEY there's a thing so-called โheadcanonโ you annoying little pests:3#if it bothers you a lot i think it's good if you just decide to scroll or block the whole thing#block button on tik tok is free babes#besides people love big guys! people enjoy large men??? tf you gatekeep em for???#s/n that i do not mind him being lanky as well. Real crawling enjoyers love him in all sizes after all#homicipher#mr crawling

Mc confronting Sebastian after Anne died, and he went full dark wizard intent on destroying the world to stop all the pain.
Sebastian - *raising his wand at MC* Get out of here.
MC - Oh noโฆ You're not the only one with powers, you know. You may be a hopped-up uber-wizard with all that dark magic, but don't forget I can ancient magic you into the next century.
Sebastian โย I'm not joking, MC. Get out of my way. Now. You canโt stop this.
MC โย Yeah. I get that. Itโs just, where else am I gonna go? Youโve been my best friend my whole life. World gonna end.. where else would I wanna be?
Sebastian โย *smirking darkly* Is this the master plan? Youโre gonna stop me by telling me you love me?
MC โย Well, I was gonna walk you off a cliff and hand you an anvil, but it seemed kinda cartoony.
Sebastian โย *eyes darkening* Still making jokes.
MC โย I'm not jokingโฆ I know youโre in pain. I canโt imagine the pain youโre in. And I know youโre about to do something apocalyptically evil and stupid, And, hey, I still wanna hang. Youโre Seb.
Sebastian โย *pointing his wand at her aggressively as his hand trembles* Donโt call me that!
MC โย The first day of kindergarten, you cried because you broke the yellow crayon and you were too afraid to tell anyone. Youโve come pretty far. Ending the world, not a terrific notionโฆ But the thing isโฆ yeah, I love you. I love crayon-breaky Sebastian, and I love scary-dark magic Sebastian. So, if Iโm goinโ out, itโs here. If you wanna kill the worldโฆ well, then start with me. Iโve earned that.
Sebastian โย You think I wonโt?
MC โย it doesnโt matter. Iโll still love you.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
IF YOU KNOW WHAT THIS IS REFERENCING I LOVE YOU.
