Love is in the air

Damn comics. I may have inadvertently written my very own Buffy/Angel manifesto. I think I need to go and exfoliate until it bleeds. Or watch Spuffy vids as a penance, although most of them are really Spike vids in disguise. The unholy combination of the camera’s male gaze and the creator’s object of desire. There are some honourable exceptions. This one in particular is Buffy through and through:

One Last Time by dualbunny
Turbulent and self-excoriating but with occasional moments of grace and not a flaming hand in sight. It ends with the “Does it have to mean anything?” scene, which is pretty much my philosophy on love. I feel better now.

I LOVE One Last Time -- it's definitely my favorite Buffy-Spike vid out there. I think it accurately captures her experience and, yeah, it's rare to find a B-S vid from her POV. All too rare.

It's so good. And I think dualbunny made it in a day or something.

Wow. That's kind of staggering.

I tried to make a vid in a day once, but I got bogged down in clipping. Ironically, that's the only vid I've ever not finished.
