Curate, connect, and discover
I Just started watching season 2 of Buffy: The Vampire Slayer, and let me tell you this.
When Spike show up with a Brunette named Drusilla the first think that I fought about was Dru and Ash because of Spike really, REALLY, R E A L L Y Blond hair.
I’m gay because of whatever Spike, Drusilla and Angel were doing on my screen at a formative age.
I’m also a masochist for the same reason!
i love the way they love
I am realizing that I’ve been obsessed with Buffy the Vampire Slayer for more than a month now but I haven’t put anything on my main blog from it yet, so it’s time to remedy that :)
There is something so tragic and darkly beautiful about Spike and Drusilla’s relationship... I quite like the light this quote casts on Spike’s turning, how he was a poet out looking for his ideal of love, and in her own way, Drusilla was looking for her ideal of love too, but neither of them got quite what they expected--and yet they also sort of did, oddly? In a twisted sense, Drusilla got her knight, brave and true, inasmuch as a vampire can be one; from a vampire’s point of view, killing a slayer could indeed be akin to slaying a great beast, except for the part where they themselves are the beasts to be slain (from a human perspective, at least). And Spike really did get a grand romance with Dru (until it ended), though it involved perhaps more pain and death than he had anticipated. They are in many ways a dark, grim old fairy tale couple.
