what does that say about Buffy who took all of two lines from Angel to go from trying to stake him to boinking him out of this world?
From what I've seen of the PTB's of the last two arcs, it's inconceivable for them to question Buffy's all-consuming devotion to her high school boyfriend, and to question that she wouldn't jump him five seconds after the opportunity presented itself. I have an extremely low opinion of Meltzer (and a fic in which Cordy and Spike go banging on his door in outrage in the works) precisely because of this and other moments of massive character fail in the Twilight arc, which was the lowest of the low in a comic I already wsn't thinking too highly of (though, like many, I was optimistic up until at least the Retreat arc). But apparently no one thought Buffy's actions through to their logical "WTF just happened?" conclusion because they have Bangel stars in their eyes - and the fandom's massive wave of criticism has resulted, though they could still admittedly bounce back.
Oh, and the icon is moscow_watcher fulfilling a massive kink of mine for resilient and resolute Buffy and Spike side by side.
