#slayers rewatch

Y'know, I understand it's at least hinted in the original novels that Gourry has some sort of tragic backstory involving Family Issues, so I kind of wonder if that's part of why he just assumes that this "little girl" traveling alone is doing so for some sort of tragic reason.

Giles & Joyce in Buffy the Vampire Slayer, S3E6 "Band Candy"

[hellmouthe]

“unless you give me a reason to stay im leaving tonight” is a diabolic sentence to say to someone after cheating on them while they were taking care of their sick mom

[pocketsizedann]

The scene lives in my head rent free lmao. Also, really wanted to draw them all together so they are being their sad selves

BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER 6x18 | “Entropy” 

[goodbyenorthernlights]

I like that Sylphiel has to give Lina CPR before casting the Resurrection spell. It reminds me of something I read on the fan wiki, that using Recovery on a sick person can actually make them sicker because the spell doesn't distinguish between the foreign virus and the cells of the body.

Basically, I like the idea that instead of being an easy fix for any maladies, using white magic properly actually requires the caster to understand something of biology and medicine in order to safely treat their patients. It makes the idea of healing magic feel oddly grounded in reality.

I watched Passions with Spike

[camellcat]

"cordelia could you please drive me home?" "of course" OF COURSE she replies to buffy, softly, without hesitation. even if she goes right back to harping on about the world ending, of course she'll help buffy. head in my fucking hands

[hellmouthe]

It's so heartbreaking to see all the moments in which Spike offers Buffy such a understanding and tender love, giving her feelings the importance they deserve and how she cannot accept or understand it. She's always been taught about bad and good in such a strict way and getting the support and love from someone she always saw as strictly evil while her friends are so caught up in their world to see her for the human who suffers and needs to rely on people sometimes instead of always being the hero must be so confusing.

I am a sucker for a good found family and Giles role as Buffy’s pseudo father figure is so sweet.
