It took me a second to realize he was reading SPIKES POETRY

You put "Spike," "Buffy," and "consent" in the same sentence and managed to avoid the nuclear bomb of that OTHER scene to come later in the series. Kudos.

"William dies aroused, in love, broken-hearted and in tremendous physical pain" this is making me insane

alright i haven't even watched the whole episode yet but that opening? is all the proof anyone should ever need that poetry is designed for performance, and a good presentation transforms it.

I love Harmony calling him out “You’re so sensitive!!” She’s been living with his emo ass for a while, she gets him hahah

But why does Spike fit a women's jacket so well?

Unconsciously, I've always known Spike had a death wish. But hearing you lay it out like, "Maybe it isn't Buffy, but Spike, who just wants to see how it ends," and in one of your top tens "Spike, the killer of two slayers and the lover of another" just makes me want to watch everything over again with the perspective that you crystallized so well. Kudos. I know this review must've been a daunting prospect because of how much the episode means to you (and all of us). Holy hell did you nail it.

The way William is turned into Spike is similar to how Liam was turned into Angelus. They were both lured into vampirism by Dru and Darla respectively since Darla promised to show Liam the world before she sired him and Dru in her usual insane way promised to make William a knight. It reminds me of what Angel and Spike say at the end of an Angel Season 5 episode where a Slayer who'd been driven insane after a guy killed her family and kidnapped and tortured her. Her insanity made her believe Spike had killed her family even though he hadn't. When Angel manages to stop her and Andrew and the Potentials take her Spike says "She's one of us now" and when Angel's response is "She's an innocent victim" Spike says "So were we once upon a time."

Gorgeous foreshadowing while avoiding spoilers, so impressive. This continues to be my favorite series.

That ending scene on the porch was absolutely beautiful . Both SMG and JM do soo soo well in portraying their characters emotions in this scene. I really recommend yall find this scene and and watch it before or after u read this. I want to break down and describe the emotions they portray in this scene.

I swear Spike gets some of the best monologues in the whole series. The "she merely wanted it" part where he then snaps Nikki's neck always gives me chills.

Fun fact: one of the comics reveals that Cecily IS Halfrek. She was there to exact vengeance on a mark, but William wouldn't get the hint to get lost so she had to really burn him.
