Gold star for first comment! *Hugs* I knew you'd like this; I saw the WTTH scene in a fanvideo the other day and Angel's line just popped out at me like, whoa. I suppose I could accompany it with a little analysis but why gild the lily?

I love parallels between S1 and S7.

I'm really fascinated by the early seasons again although I haven't done a proper re-view of 1-3. Ironically, Seasons 1 & 7 are the generally acknowledged in mainstream fandom to be the "worst" seasons or "least favorite" or whatever, but I'm very fond of both of them (of course I'm quite fond not only of underrated seasons but episodes as well.) Some people even attempt to argue that 1 is not a true season, just an extension of 2, and that it hadn't found it's footing (true enough); but dismissing it is just crazy-talk. The foundation of the entire show, the seeds of everything to come, planned or not, are right there from the beginning.

And S7 - S7 fans need safe space for our love! I try to provide.
