I've been iconing like crazy for the last 3 days. Strange mood, I suppose it's because I'm starting to begin to almost like the result I get >_> Anyway, except an icon post tomorrow !

And I got blamed ! I got blamed by generalblossom for starting to like Buffy/Spike ! Go Teresa ! You're right, S6 is awesome, and this ship is very amusing ^_~. I got blamed by stanayitnuh for a wonderful masturbationnary Tokyo Babylon fic *plug*goreadit*unplug*; and I might yet get blamed by ariss_tenoh for threesome involving Seishirou, Subaru and Kamui with Seishirou being Kamui's father -_-;; (well, Link didn't want that bunny, so...)

I feel so proud and Pod-esque. (and one person on my flist will understand what I mean there), I like getting blamed ^_^

Re: A certain Linda's essay 4/?

I am lazy, have not read all of Linda´s post yet, but basically disagree. She says she has no doubt of which world is real, but I think the point of the episode is that the doubt is to be taken seriously. Plus am I hallucinating, did Buffy ever let Spike handcuff her? She handcuffed HIM before, but when he suggests handcuffs and asks if she trusts him, she quite sensibly says "never". Sorry this essay is not working for me too well. I did like yours, and the previous one´s better.

Hmm, I knew this Mara which was a big fan of Spike, wonder if it is the same.

I don't agree with all of Linda's points, but I think she made some interesting observations, especially about metaphores and symbols.

In Dead Things we see at one point Buffy stroking her wristles as if they were painful. Which strongly suggests that she eventually accepted being handcuffed.

Tons of it, which sort of weakens the whole thing, the most far-reached symbolism analysis make me just want to scream that cigars can be just cigars and all that. Maybe some of the symbolism is valid and intentional, but a lot of it seemed far-fetched and in whole it seemed to be more about what the essayist is projecting into the series. I know, I am picky.

Don´t get it either, sorry. I now consistency is not too high between characters but in one episode it is a very definite consistent no, a gesture which could be teasing the fans in another without further confirmation, nah not enough. Plus I get the feeling that the Spike and Buffy relationship works the other way, he is is the one which wants to be hurt - which, ok, if she finds out she likes to hurt him, could be one good reason to all that melodramatic disgusting myself thing - but back to handcuffs, can not quite see it, though again some author of some episode might like the idea and all and want to hint at it.
