Love isn't "we are gods making with the big sonic booms while pausing to shower each other with the cheesies of cheesy drivvel" claptrap. Love is giving up the illusion of hearts and flowers for the profound love of throwing yourself back into battle to save the friends and family who you love.
I agree completely that that's what this is all about, and that's worth taking way from S8. Thank you for putting it so well.
Lost has been dovetailing very nicely with Buffy S8 for months now. It's my refuge in times of trouble. Jack is emerging as a truly human, three dimensional character, and that makes him beautiful. He's trying, trusting, willing to follow as well as lead, giving choices to people. It's a great redemptive story for that character, too.
