That was just....*snif* beautiful. Great job, sweetie!
Well, let's face it: in the beginning, she is a horny teenager who sees a obscenely hot guy and turns to goo.
This made me LOL because even though I haven't been a teenager in...well, a long time...I had the same reaction the first time I saw Angel.
That's the essential pull of them – the claddaugh personified. Love, loyalty and friendship. Basic, simple, tender affection. A gut-level draw to one another that defies the natural order of things, making you hope that maybe, just this once, love *can* conquer all. All set to a backdrop of horror, violence and death that seems like it should make such feelings impossible.
YES! You got it, babe!
Thanks for this, really. As much as I've loved them over the years, I could never explain it well enough. So now, whenever I get questioned on my B/A shippiness, I'm going to send them a link to this and say, "Yeah, what she said!"
