desoto_hia873Jim is still slowly working his way through BtVS S5 (which means I get to rewatch all of them with him, of course). I was a little worried how he'd react to The Body--his mother died of cancer when he was just 12 years old. He did okay with it, although I don't think it's an episode that he'll ever watch again. Like many before him have said, he thought it caught the shock and disbelief of losing a family member really well.
Last night, we watched Intervention while eating dinner. I nudged him to make sure he was watching when Spike realized that it was the real Buffy, not the Buffybot, kissing him at the end of the episode. Wanting to drive the message about Spike's changing nature home, I had started to make some remark about it when I looked over at him and realized that he was tearing up. Something about that scene really struck a chord in him. It's possible that he's becoming a Spuffy shipper. Hee.
Also in the Jims-are-so-cute file: I came home last night from choir practice to find him sweaty and dishevelled. He'd spent the entire time I was gone cleaning bathrooms and vacuuming. :-)

Date: 2007-09-12 06:23 pm (UTC)As for me, it was Spike who really sucked me into the show, but I'll happily read any 'ship as long as it's well-written. I actually like genfic best of all, so there you go.
As long as he doesn't turn out to be a Buffy/Kennedy shipper (Kennedy being the one Jossverse character I really didn't like), it's all good.
