"Longing. Longing for a wave of love that would stir in me. That's what makes me clumsy. The absence of pleasure. Desire for love. Desire to love."

My lighter's gone missing. Haven't seen it. Buffy the Vampire Slayer 6.11 | “Gone”

thinking about when Buffy comes back in s6 and something's not quite right with her and that look on Spike's face when he says "clawed her way out of her coffin that's how. done it myself" like. he is seeing her. she's herself but different, a little more like him. THEN when Spike comes back in s7 and something's obviously not right with him, and Buffy's face in the church when she realizes he got his soul back and he did it on purpose. to be more like her.

^ when your shadow counterpart returns from their identity-altering metaphysical journey looking more like you than they ever have before

I don't want that darkness in my home.

i’m a toxic buffy stan and person (one of my favorite scenes of the whole show is buffy beating spike almost to the point of death while he says that’s it put it all on me i love you please don’t throw your life away)

#it’s so good it’s so good it’s so good#starting in game face then shifting back to human but he’s still unrecognizable bc she’s beaten him so badly#spike in black hole mode as his most familiar expression of love#the way he reaches for her and she hurts him like she wants to hurt herself…#sorry. that’s catnip to me op dont apologize, ur right
