SCHOOL SPIRITS (2023-) S02E02―Field of Screams

[kat-rose-griffith]

Okay so I already absolutely love the band girl and I hope she and Rhonda fall deliriously in love

[bisexualmultifandommess]

Okay so Charley and Yuri need to get together but I also see potential for Rhonda and Quinn and can see Claire and Nicole and Xavier and Nicole (maybe an ot3 👀) and obviously I need them to keep Wally and Maddie together

[tragictempest]

Manifesting Quinn x Rhonda. Manifesting. Manifest with me guys (I say as we all chant "Quinn X Rhonda in unison)

[tragictempest]

Been saying this since before season 2 was even released... My gaydar just called it without even needing to see an interaction between them.

SCHOOL SPIRITS SEASON 2 SPOILER‼️

Not to be one of those gays that thinks every character is gay, but i am one of those gays. And i’m right. These two should kiss.

BUFFY READING LIST

As promised @possession1981 and I have compiled a list of Buffy the Vampire Slayer (and Angel) related academic text and books. I think this is a good starting point for both a long time fan and for someone just getting into the show, or just someone interested in vampire lore. I have included several books about the vampire lore and myth in general as well. Most of these are available online.
