30 Days of Buffy: Day 2

DAY 2: FAVORITE EPISODE

Just one? :( Okay then it has to be Season 5 Episode 7, Fool For Love. It’s the one where Buffy asks Spike about the slayers he’s killed and it reveals Spike’s past from before he was sired and his adventures with the Fearsome Foursome. I’ve watched this episode so many times (along with the companion episode on Angel aired the same week woohoo) I know most of Spike’s quotes by heart.

Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What’s it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that’s the secret. Not the punch you didn’t throw or the kicks you didn’t land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

It’s my favorite because it Spike-centric and I love the flashbacks. Plus Drusilla passes by Sunnydale before wreaking havoc in LA on Angel and there’s a hint of Spike starting to like Buffy. And the ending, of course!


Random trivia nobody cares about: “Fool4Love” was a username I had at one point in my cyber life. Also, “marsters_girl” hahaha I am not ashamed of my Spike/James Marsters bias.
