Questions Post #11
I have another batch of random questions.
General
Do you think Spike ever turned anybody?
Do you think Drusilla ever turned anyone except Spike?
Do you think Darla or Angel ever killed any Slayers?
Where did Gunn live in S2 of AtS?
Can anyone really explain why Buffy dying in "The Gift" made sense? Other than thematically, I mean.
What kind of music does Buffy like?
Doesn't Spike's duster look . . . too big on him, sometimes?
How come Angel's demon form can go out in the sunlight in Pylea? Wesley's explanation for Angel's human form withstanding sunlight is that the human aspects, like seeing his reflection etc are stronger, but then in demon form, shouldn't they be demon-y?
Is Pylea an alternate reality, like a world without shrimp? Or is it an alternate dimension? Is there a difference? Is there anything meta-cle about these terms and what they signify in Jossverse?
Season 6 of BtVS
Do Willow or Tara ever get a job?
Do Anya or Xander (or Willow or Tara) ever think to contribute anything to Buffy's money problems? I mean Willow (and Tara, before she moves out) is living in Buffy's house.
Did the Scoobies really not realize Buffy would come back to life in her grave?
Does anyone think the way they wrote Giles off the show was in character or well done?
Is it just me or do random references to Angel seem to increase in this season?
How does JM do that thing where he looks at SMG like he worships her with everything in him, without looking like a complete boob? Most people look like boobs when they do that. And not the good kind of boobs.
Why doesn't Giles reveal to the council that Buffy died? Isn't he aware that sooner or later everyone will find out? What does he seek to gain by hiding it? (I'm only asking about Giles because presumably you could say the Scoobies kept up the deception of the Buffybot because they thought they were bringing Buffy back anyway).
How come Amber Benson sings so well?
Why can't Spike decide how to fix his hair? Why can't Anya decide how to fix her hair?
Random
Who raised Bruce Wayne (after his parents died)? If it was Alfred, how did Alfred get custody?
Did you guys know Anthony Head is in the new Woody Allen movie (Scoop. I've seen two Woody Allen movies now. The first I despised and this one was really good! I loved Woody Allen in it; he was so endearing!)? Head has 2 lines, but Giles! OMG big-screen Giles!
Why do ants bear away their dead brethren?

no subject
As far as Buffy. I don't know that it reaffirmed anything for her. I don't think she would have leapt unless she was sure it was going to work, so slight revision from above. But I also think she was through. She would have kept going out a sense of duty but this was the perfect out for her.

Oh, I like that.

I can go with that. I didn't really mean it made her want to live so much as it made her see that her death could make the world better for others. Where before she'd thought her job and life and the world had no justice, my thought is that she thought is was pointless--Dawn never COULD have the life Buffy was fighting for her to have. But when Buffy realized how she could close the portal, she realized it had all been worth it after all, and now was her time to prove it. She was happy with that, I think, but I think her death was hopeful--for Dawn, and for herself, for fulfilling her purpose in life.
