I had this really detailed and tl;dr post about my thoughts on the second half of Buffy S2 (short version: OMG I LOVE IT, Xander/Cordelia is too awesome for words, "Passion" was the first episode to make me cry, and "Becoming, Part II" is my favorite so far), but LJ ate it, and I am way too lazy too type it all up again. So I picspammed Drusilla instead. Spike and Dru are my favorite characters on Buffy, and apparently
neither of them get substantial screen time in S3. *woe* Also, I think I love Dru too much to ever be a Spike/Buffy shipper. I know Spuffy becomes canon sometime in S5, which means sometime before then Spike and Dru have to break up, though I can't think of a reason that would
cause them to split, seeing as Spike would probably move the Earth for Dru if she asked, and went up against freaking Angel to get her back (though I suppose Dru would be kind of pissed that Spike teamed up with Buffy to take down her sire. BUT THEY COULD TOTALLY WORK THAT OUT TOGETHER. THEY WOULDN'T HAVE TO
BREAK UP OVER IT). AUGH.

*is annoyed that LJ ate your post*
Have you seen any of S3 yet?
I haven't! But I've got the first five episodes on my hard drive and will be watching them within the hour. *g*
Awesome! You've got some good episodes ahead of you. Season of loaded subtext!
Oh, hey, you got any thoughts on Willow and Oz? :P
I've heard S3 is a lot of people's favorites, so I'm really excited. The only thing hampering my mood is the lack of Spike and Dru, but alas.
ADORABLE. As much as I loved Xander/Willow (until Xander/Cordy took over my mind, anyway. "Bewitched, Bothered, and Bewildered" is one of my favorite episodes), I thought it was great that Willow found someone who loved her for her Willow-ness. :D
Yeah, it is. I think my season order is S5 or S6 the most followed by S2 or S3 in the middle and finished with some order of S1, S4, or S7 by default. But it's hard because I really like them all.
What is it about Whedon that makes everything so shippable? :P
And yeah, it's really great that Willow's found Oz. "I mock you with my monkey pants."
Xander/Cordy! I was surprised by how well the writers made them work, to be honest. Alas, they probably won't last very long because I know Cordy goes off to Angel soon. *le sigh*
I think Becoming II is my favourite ep, although S3 is my preferred season (despite the yes, woeful lack of Spike and Dru).
And I'm enjoying S3 a lot so far! Though I hear Spike and Dru break up later (WOE), the addition of Faith, and the plots and everything have just made it really good.
S3 is awesome for other reasons, anyway. Reasons called Faith and Slayer Femmeslash and JJKHDGHIOIROIOSIDLKKS.
And the thing with the Jossverse is, you can love Xander/Willow AND Xander/Cordy AND illow/Oz AND Angel/Buffy AND Spike/Buffy, ALL AT THE SAME TIME - or at least that's how it is for me. And the fun part is, every single ship will break your heart. Oh, wait, maybe it's not so funny.
I AM GOING TO GO TALK ABOUT S3. BECAUSE IT'S AWESOME AND I'M LOVING IT SO FAR.

WORD. Well, expect for the Spike/Buffy thing, but who knows? Once upon a time I didn't like Buffy/Angel because I thought Angel only belonged with Darla, but now I am a shameless shipper, so we'll see, I guess!
