> Dracula has a soul? Like Angel and Spike? Now, it's possible that this
they have two different meaning for soul
one is that a soul is the supernatural power that powers and directs the
body
so that you can have demon and human souls
two is that soul is a human soul alone
and demon refers to demon soul and-or demon body
the reference is compatiable with the first definition

there are references in the tv series
asking how angel shaves without a reflection
they dont show anyone shaving on the tv and only one haircut
so im thinking the page is refering to something else
perhaps that he can actually see himself when he shaves

buffy might have given xander a choice
either work with slayers or wear dracula manservant bloomers
can see a vampire slayer demanding no one in her organization
exchanging missives with a notorious vampire
and giving xander the choice when she was setting up operations

i thought that was just demonstrating their casual strength

if we conveniently forget faith then buffy is the last slayer by the old
rules
and she is the hero of sunnydale (conveniently ignoring empty places)

- what am i st buffy? hes like three feet tall
the character has never oozed compassion and empathy
she has always been shallow
and i see it as her doubt and confusion easily breach the surface
and she is angry at herself for letting it happen
and for being angry at being angry

ive known people who never considered themselves racists
but when they were young and walking on the sidewalks
negroes knew to make way by stepping into the gutters
its an attitude not of the hate and violence you normally see
but that there is an order and people have their proper place
its still racism but genteel racism

i guess she wants more than a blurry watercolor this time

is gellar capable of that kind of noise
