Re: Seeing Red, Villans & Two To Go

[Kimber <kacoe@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Yes, I am alive, no I've not been staked, shot, strug up or generally tortured!! Just dealing with the adult world in too many ways to go into right now ::shrug::




In so far as the season goes, I've heard many complaints that season 6 should never have happened. Here's my short take in three words: The human condition.


Here's my long take: It was all about humanity, folks. Buffy rising from the grave and trying to fit into being a human again. Xander getting cold feet at the altar. Giles moving to England to start a new life for himself, Spike trying to show Buffy how human he can be, Riley coming back with a wife showing that he's moved on with life, Buffy getting a real job, Dawn repaying for her stealing bit. . . .it's all about being human in an inhumane world. In a world where, most of the time, people just don't give a shit, they do as they please and others sometimes have to deal with the consequences (i.e. Buffy dealing with Willows decision in bringing her back from the dead). It's all about what Spike said in OMWF:

Life's not a song 
Life isn't bliss 
Life is just this - 
It's living. 
You'll get along 
The pain that you feel 
you only can heal - 
by living. 
You have to go on living. 
The hardest thing in this world is to live in it. 

And that truely is the hardest thing. It's all about being tragically human, the choices we make, and how we go on from point A to point B.

Joss began priming us for Dawn 2 years before it actually happened. There was this enormous build up then wham. . .it happened. In my humble opinion, the opposite is happening now. We are 2 years from the final season. Season 10 is it from all the banter and back and forth I've heard. . .so. . .I think we're now in a downward spiral of sorts. Things are winding down, resolutions are being made, choices are being accepted or dealt with in every way. It's the beginning of the end of the road.

Just my two cents mind you ;)

Now...on to the spoilery stuff for Seeing Red, Villans & Two To Go!!

It isn't a definite that Tara is dead really. Both buffy and Tara are shot but we won't know the damage until "Villians" the next ep.
Maybe no one dies in the end :-).
Hopefully this may just be another Joss Whedon ruse that a major character dies. Maybe it's more like a near death experience *fingers crossed*.
I won't mention more about the ep unless you really want to know

As far as Seeing Red goes, I've seen it too..and there's no way Tara is alive. Buffy got hit a little higher than Tara did - and Tara got hit I believe right in the heart.

I've seen a bit of Villans and Two to Go already. it's not pretty. suffice it to say that Willow trys to resurect Tara like she did buffy, but can't because Buffy died mystically and tara dies from a gunshot wound. Also, While Xander is at the hospital with Buffy, Dawn comes home to find Tara's body. . .it's all very tragic. Warren gets his due in a flamey death way, but not before Willow tortured him. . .and Willow goes head to head with Anya in the magic shop too and it's not pretty. Oh!!!, and she's all decked out in black, black hair, black eyes, and black veins on her face!!! Very very disturbing stuff here. I could probably procure a screen cap or two if anyone is interested ;)
