Ohmygod.

I just watched the new episode of Buffy. I'm still in shock.



I can't believe how brilliant and terrifying this episode was. I can't believe how well written and witty it was. I can't believe they killed Jonathan!

This is without a doubt the best episode since 'Once More with Feeling', and more than makes up for the lacklustre quality of most of the other episodes so far this series. Am just gobsmacked by the sheer audacity of it, setting up such a monumental (and scary) storyline, that is sure to turn the Scooby Gang's world upside down.
I absolutely loved the psychology student vampire, his dialogue was some of the best I've ever heard, and the actor was fabulous too, so non-chalant and tremendously cool. Willow's talk to 'Tara' was heartbreaking, and even though you knew things weren't what they seemed, the ending really was shocking.

And poor, poor Jonathan. I've always liked him, ever since he was just a nameless student walking through Sunnydale corridors, and somehow always ending up in the middle of the Scoobies' adventures. Why do all my favourite minor characters get killed off for no good reason? I sobbed uncontrollably when Agent Pendrell died on The X-files, he was such an adorably geekycute Scully admirer, and I always squeed with delight when he was in an episode. And then they go and shoot him for no reason at all. Why why why! It's always the geekycute ones that get bumped off too. So unfair. *sniff*

Anyway. Just wanted to rant a bit about that. I hope Buffy continues to surprise and entertain me this season.



I forgot to mention it yesterday, so please wish scarletmacaw a very happy belated birthday. *squeeeeeeeze* :)

Hmmm... I would have thought of myself as more Tolkien conservative, but I suppose my liberal nature spills over into my fanaticism. *G*

They killed JONATHAN?!?!?!! Oh shit, I knew I was wrong to miss two weeks' worth of Buffy!!! *runs away to borrow tapes from friend Audrey!* *wails* But I loved Jonathan!

She adores me tra la la la laaaaaaaaa...:D

3. Was too busy mooning over Aaron for it to occur to me. *looks sheepish*

Damn that boy! *sulks* ;-)
Hehehe...we were all mooning over Aaron I think. *grins* Though of course you more so than me. *squeeeeze*

Jonathan is gone. Weep for Sunnydale my friend. *sobs on your shoulder*

Re: She adores me tra la la la laaaaaaaaa...:D

[ashfae.livejournal.com]

*wistful* He's more gorgeous than ever, you know. Damn but I loved him. *sygh* Oh well. We kind of drifted after sophomore year, since he spent all his time with Ariela and more or less dropped me. Had a long talk with him when I went to visit last May (he was visiting at the same time), and he said he'd missed me, and I got to tell him how I felt, and even though he can't reciprocate was good. Get a little warm feeling whenever I think of him saying he'd missed me. It was a sweet moment. =)

But y'know what? Whenever I mention Aaron in my other diary, which Ariela reads, she leaves notes about how she bonds and understands and misses him too, and I just want to smack her. She was a good friend of mine too, but I still just hate that she took Aaron's attention away from me, and so overwhelmingly. Whenever she says something like that, I just want to scream "I had him first, you wench!" *sygh* Petty, evil, but I can't help it. Aaron's always going to be a sore point, methinks.

*huggles*

[angelislington.livejournal.com]

What's your other diary?

Did he ever even go out with Ari, or was it just that they were attached at the hip?

You are not being petty and evil, you can't help the way you feel. *hugs you tight*
I'm sure you knew how jealous *I* was of her, but that doesn't make me a bad person. And your feelings are so much stronger and more worthy than mine.

Re: *huggles*

[ashfae.livejournal.com]

Other diary is a secret. Shh. Nothing personal, I just want to keep them seperate; helps ensure that no matter what, I always have one diary where it's safe to bitch and moan.

Nope, he never went out with Ariela. And it wasn't so much they were attached at the hip as she glued herself to his side. I mean that seriously; I spent a lot of time with Aaron, but we both still spent time with other people too, and it was a mutual thing. Ariela just glued herself there, for literally eight months after she met him I never once was able to get so much as five minutes alone with him! Fer cryin' out loud!!

I feel petty and evil, though. I mean, she was my friend too, though she's not exactly now. (long story) But whenever she tries to bond with me over Aaron, I just want to kick her and say "No, no, you don't know how I feel, you have no idea what it was like from my perspective, go away." Grrrrr.

*sheepish gryn* He really was adorable, wasn't he? Heh. Poor boy had no idea how many people were smitten with him. You should've seen his eyes bug out when I told him how I felt last May, it was so cute, and he was so sweet about it all.
