Whedonverse Stuff

Ran across this quote in a comment thread that was discussing places other than LJ. 

"...Nothing we saw in season 2 of BtVS ever made me think that Angelus would have been anything but an inventive, elegant and sophisticated lover - well, as far as Buffy was concerned in any case..."
 

No comment.

Oh, who am I kidding?  I've got to comment. 

The only folks I could see agreeing with that assessment are Franklin Mott and Drusilla.

Elsewhere, read spoilers and it  looks like the Whedonverse comics continue to furiously dig themselves into greater depths of fail.  I kind of respect them for putting this much effort into coming up with new and ever more spectacular ways to suck.  It cannot be easy.  It takes a work ethic, people!   Respect it! 

::Pets Whedonverse Comics::  They're like Chinese Crested puppies.  So ugly they're almost cute.  Never change, Whedonverse.  I'd hate to think there could ever come a time when I could actually underestimate you.  


ETA:   Spoiler (as I understand it which is basically having read a comment about it online):  Turns out in one of the W-guys writing the AtS comics (meaning I don't know the difference between them, so basically 'Not Lynch') has the plot twist that  Spike lost his soul and didn't notice.  A plot that has, of course, been done many times in fanfic.  Though given the overall stupidity of the comics, it's a safe bet that it will not be done well.  Or with any thought given to characterization of anyone...especially not Spike characterization.  Don't know and don't care about the details of it.

Aww, and remember when Angelus told Fred that he wanted to rape her to death? That was very elegant and sophisticated. He would have daintily ripped out her uterus and helped her bend over so he could shove it up her colon, because that's the polite thing to do.

That's not because Angelus was a sadist. That's because Fred wasn't his OTP, darnit! Just as his raping and murdering Dru doesn't count. Or his raping Holtz's wife repeatedly. Angelus would never do that to his OTP! Don't you understand true love?

Er... now Angelus really is sounding like Franklin Mott.

Shame they didn't meet. They could have traded notes.

Franklin was probably busy that night. Maybe dismembering the body in Jessica's basement or trying to knit his brains back together after Tara bashed his head in ruining his silky white pajamas. And after he'd shaved, just for her.
