seeing red bathroom scene they just took it so far and its not something that ever needs to be depicted i got uncomfortable enough in the episodes where a guy kills their (ex-)girlfriend the way its discussed afterwards and constany recapped and yet the narrative expects us to just move forward its all handled so badly that was not executed the way they wanted it to be and yes i'll say it feels out of character or at least inconsistent

#If it rly is that it came from a female writer's personal anecdote of a bad decision she made then give the plot point to anya idgi #it was like show spike is evil so he goes and gets a soul but you've traumatised your cast audience and characters #soooo many other ways same w tara's manner of dying god terribly executed lynchpin episode 😭#frankly i think the thing to do is put dawn in danger... via a wish if needed i think dawn is everything #spike is so inconsistent bc its like joss hating that he ruined his cut and dry vampires vs he is popular with audience vs But He's Evil #they just forget to make him evil bc they keep giving him emotions like wanting to save the world #idk generally the show has these ideas of love and sex that rly do not settle with me
