The reveal that the universe was basically mentally nudging them towards this action resolves my main qualm with this development, which was that it seemed out of character for both Buffy and Angel.

Verdict's still out on the arc (and this season) as a whole for me, but I will say that the ending of this issue makes me really want to read the next one just to figure out what the heck is going on.

If the implication there is that Buffy is the first Slayer to have sex then Robin Wood has some serious questions to ask his mother next time he see's her.

Or is it that she's the first to have had sex with a vampire?

Also, how on earth is Giles KNOWING all this stuff, even by Buffy standards it's an infodump of (literally) cosmic proportions.

it's a Watcher's fairy tale apparently.

It's also epically stupid. There is nothing that says Balance in this plot.

I'm glad somebody is enjoying this storyline, at least. 'Fraid I'm not, anymore (I'm quite fond of the series in general, I'm just not enjoying this particular plotline anymore), but at least someone is.

So basically the plot of the Buffy books boils down to a scene that kinda apes itself from the Superman/Wonder Woman scenes from Dark Knight 2.

Thanks but no thanks, comic. I dealt with that shit before, and I'm quite fond of not having to deal with it again.

Buffy enjoyed her relationship with the other Slayer but they ended it because of... reasons.

Obviously getting to this point was the better story because of... reasons.

Wow.

I've got nothing. Really, I mean, wow.

What is... just... what is...?

Plus, you've got to hand it to Buffy. I mean, she changes positions in mid-air three times. And I bet that's really, really hard to do.

As for the rest of it, all I have is "what?" So superpowered Slayer sex is enough to... maybe... you know, I honestly can't bring myself to care.

Way to go Meltzer! Way to go.

o_O *twitch* Pardon the pun, but what the fuck is this? *shakes head forlornly* I like the series in general, and have no issue with pairing Buffy and Angel, but this is... there are no words. Admittedly, I'm impressed that they managed to change positions at least three times in midair at superspeed, but still... *twitch* That whole backstory there makes like no sense, and how the hell does Giles even know that?! I think my personal canon ends sometime in season seven, because this is reading like fanfiction to me (and I've read plenty of fanfiction that I actually liked better). I mean, reality-warping superpowered Slayer/vampire superspeed, midair sex? Seriously? That's the best they could come up with? I disregard this reality and replace it with my own.

liara_shadowsong: (do not want)
From: [personal profile] liara_shadowsong
*squints at the third panel of the third page* Make that at least four times. I'm pretty sure I see Angel's head at the top right and Buffy's at the bottom left, and by the hair placement and leg shape... looks like they went from spoon position with her wrapping her legs around him backwards, to whatever you call face-to-face with the heads on opposite ends (some strange amalgam of missionary and 69?), to some sort of midair variation on lotus. Good grief.

I like it. Still, I don't understand why suddenly they are okay with Angel trying to kill them, raising an army, and killing a bunch of the slayers when he could have just talked to her. Can someone fill me in? I've read this and I still don't quite get that one aspect of the story.

For one, I personally no longer ship Buffy/Angel. Yes I thought they were a great couple and had high hopes but after a while.. eh. Kinda similar to how my love for Bruce/Selina went down. I'll still hold high hopes but yea.. not really excited about it either. Still..gotta admit..super speed, earthquake causing, flying air sex in different positions...fucking awesome!! Go Angel!
