Faith Is So Good - Tumblr Posts
I'm sure the romantic music from Buffy and Angel's ice rink date playing as Buffy and Kendra say goodbye means nothing. You know, maybe the music is supposed to symbolise Buffy considering her path in life, which connects to ice skating and this last conversation. It just sounds romantic. It doesn't mean anything.
but what if they kissed, though?
In general, I'm noticing a lot of Faith-in-Buffy on this rewatch that I missed on previous watches. 'Prophecy Girl' has a lot of it (after she dies, but also her smile while she's fighting vamps at the start of the episode), and obviously Buffy in 'When She Was Bad' is full of Faith.
And now, in 'What's My Line pt. 2', it's astonishing how much Buffy is Faith to Kendra. The way she provokes her, tries to bring out the passion in her - it's so Faith, so much a mirror of Buffy and Faith's relationship, with Buffy in the Faith roll. Just, you know, less homoerotic.
... I mean, it's still pretty homoerotic. Just... less so.
