Buffy Day 9

Favorite Romance

I absolutely LOVED the romance between Buffy and Spike. Some might say there was no romance, but season 7 totally puts that claim out of the water. Since season 5, she has always been able to rely on him, trusting her life to him. Once he becomes the man she needs/deserves, they get emotionally intimate and it is one of the most beautiful parts of the whole series.

Willow and Tera was fantastic too, but the turmoil in the relationship sort of killed it for me (abuse of magic, break-up, death).

I've been on the Spike and Buffy bus since season 4. So glad they got that intimacy in season 7. The characters needed it. It was a first for both of them.

And sometimes my brain doesn't work either. :)
