yes tara willow and kennedy are amazing barrier-breaking representation and I adore them with my whole entire heart forever and ever, but also here’s just a friendly reminder that:
spike and angel have canonically had sex, as have darla and drusilla
lorne just straight up shamelessly asks angel out that one time (and is. you know. lorne)
I was gonna split it up into like ten different points but honestly just faith and buffy’s entire relationship you know exactly what I mean
also self explanatory, lindsey’s complete and utter obsession with angel that literally ends with his name being his last words. he is not normal about that old man like “it’s not me you wanna screw it’s him” “I wanna know the details, everything he did to you” UM HELLO WHAT
fred canonically has a crush on willow
buffy has a sexual and romantic relationship with a woman in the comics
lorne mentions picking up demon girls in pylea, meanwhile his mother has a whole ass beard and more testosterone than a bodybuilder (also he’s. you know. LORNE)
xander thinks having sex with spike is understandable because he is strong and mysterious and sort of compact but well muscled
illyria exists outside the gender binary
the visions are canonically passed by what is essentially true love’s kiss, and will only transfer if the person romantically loves the other person. in a universe where cordelia didn’t join angel investigations, doyle gave the visions to angel. I am so incredibly normal about this fact
“recently I’ve been wondering what it would be like to share the slaughter of innocence with another man. that doesn’t make me some kind of deviant, does it?”
vampire willow is very intensely bisexual, and angel confirms that vampires hold the same attractions as their human selves
faith “doesn’t take the guys she has a connection with very seriously”
lilah is canonically attracted to cordelia
CANON GAY ANDREW AND HIS DEEP AND HILARIOUS OBSESSION WITH WARREN XANDER AND SPIKE I LOVE YOU I LOVE YOU I LOVE YOU 🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️
angel has no problem spanking men <3
so yeah basically hey don’t cry all your favs are raging bisexuals :)

AU where after the Trial Angel turns Darla into a vampire with a soul, because I am compelled by the idea of ensoulled Darla and the complexity that would lend to their relationship.
There will be non-canon relationships in the mix here determined only by what compels me so it very much will be not to everyone's taste.
Yes it's 5 AM I couldn't sleep because I just rewatched Seeing Red and Villains before bed and it made me crazy so my mind kept going back to other plotlines that make me crazy until I had no choice but to exorcise this demon.
...
"Hey!" Darla shouted. She didn't like the way Drusilla was looking at Angel, even though she knew he could hold his own. He had just survived the trials for her. It occurred to her that he may be too weakened from that to fight effectively. "This is between you and me. So why don't you let him go and we'll settle this?"
"Settle," Drusilla mused. "Like it's some sort of score?"
"Isn't it? Come over here and I'll give you what I owe you."
Darla tilted her neck, allowing the hair to fall away from it to expose her veins. "Is this what you wanted? What we took from you?"
"I'm only here to help." Her voice dripped with sickly honey from a diseased hive.
"I know, dear," Darla said wearily.
Drusilla's face changed to something horrible and bumpy, her fangs sharp as needles. She leaned in close.
"So am I," Darla whispered regretfully as her right hand connected with a stake that had been left on Angel's desk. She swung it with all her might, but found her wrist held once more in an iron grip.
"Bad mummy," Drusilla said. "No playtime for you and you'll have to be sent away without supper."

BTVS boop head canons:
Angel is on tumblr but types with one finger. he finally got the hang of reblogs last month. he is scared of the boop button and does not try. he makes a mental note to ask Cordelia to explain it to him.
Spike boops Buffy, then realizes how that looks. he begins to boop all the Scoobies, Willow first. he begrudgingly also boops Xander.
Buffy has been busy so is late with the boops. she's overwhelmed by all the boops she has and closes her tumblr tab half way thru booping people. her first boop is Willow, then Xander. she boops Faith back but not Spike. [sorry Spuffy fans, i'm a Fuffy truther] sadly she also boops Parker.
Willow boops everyone, Tara first. Tara ofc boops back. so does Oz.
Tara only boops the Scoobies and her witch friends. while she doesn't boop freely, to her boops are more about friendship than anything else.
Xander boops Spike first, then realizes how that looks. he rapidly boops everyone else, including Giles. (Giles ignores it, but is shaken up that Xander knows about his secret tumblr account "rugged_Sunnydale_librarian.") Anya is glad Xander booped her, she was wondering why it took so long.
(All the Scoobies know about Giles's "secret" tumblr account, since he keeps forgetting to log out of it on the Magic Box research computer.)
Anya gives very limited boops. she's annoyed that tumblr didn't monetize it somehow, since that's what she would do. "it's such an obvious opportunity!"
Cordelia boops a few select old classmates from Sunnydale, but not Buffy. she happily boops Angel, Fred, Gunn, Lorne, and Wesley, in that order. [idk i haven't seen all of ATS]
Lorne boops everyone and won't shut up about booping.
Lilah and Wesley only boop each other.
Lindsey boops Angel and Lilah, but neither boop him back.
Gunn shyly boops Fred and she instantly boops back.
Faith boops Buffy. when Buffy doesn't boop back immediately she boops another 10 times, thinking it didn't go through. when she realizes that all 11 boops went through, she panics and drafts a "sorry yo my tumblr got hacked" post just in case. when Buffy boops her back (once) she grins like a cheese ball for 2 days straight. as an afterthought she also boops the Scoobies.
Giles has a secret tumblr. he scoffs at all the booping, until Jenny boops him. he grins and sends her a long text in response thanking her (like text msg on his phone), signing it with his name like he does with every text.
(@scooby-group-texts your posts inspired me)

Congratulations to GETHAN, your winner for the Buffyverse Divorce Tournament!
With 59% of the votes in the final round, Gethan is also one of the relationships with the fewest number of episodes (4!) across Buffy and Angel. Among the top three, it's also the shortest relationship with the youngest members! The ship dominated its run to the finals, only slipping below 60% during the final match-up.
In second and third place are Dangel and Spangel, respectively. Spangel lost to Gethan in the semi-finals, then fought their way through the losers' bracket with two more wins to take third.
Thanks all for participating in our celebration of separation, our party for partings, our anniversary for annulment. Enjoy some more fun facts below, and remember! Divorce is more than just a piece of paper. :)
RANDOM FACTS:
Angel is the only individual to have multiple relationships in the top 3. Spike came close, with Sprusilla in fourth place.
Sprusilla had the longest run in the losers' bracket; after being knocked out by Dangel in round one, they survived all the way to the losers' bracket semi-finals (top 4!). This also makes three of the top 4 a Fanged Four couple.
In addition to the top 3, five other couples made it farther in the rounds than Hank x Joyce, the only canonically divorced couple on the shows. These were:
Xander x Anya
Wesley x Lilah
Xander x Cordelia
Spike x Drusilla
Faith x Buffy
Gethan had the most resounding victory in the tournament, beating Frunn with 95% of the votes. The closest matches were Weslah vs Hank x Joyce and Willoz vs Spuffy, both with results split ~51:49.
Besides Buffy, Spike, and Angel, the only characters with multiple relationships in the tournament were Willow, Xander, and Wesley. Of these three, Xander's relationships made it furthest in the tournament (both went further than Hank x Joyce), followed by Wesley, then Willow.
The only Angel ship that failed to make it out of the first round is Bangel.
Although Buffy had four ships (out of 16 participants) in the tournament, the only one that made it past the second round is Fuffy.
Fuffy is also the only f/f ship (of two) that made it out of the first round, but made it all the way to the top 6.
There were three m/m ships among the original 16 participants, making up just 19% of the represented couples. By the finals, they made up 67%(!) of the top 3.

The Sunnydale Herald Newsletter, Friday, April 26
WOMAN: (holds out her hands, Buffy hands over the scythe) You pulled it out of the rock. I was one of those who put it in there.
BUFFY: What is it?
WOMAN: (admires the scythe) A weapon. A scythe. Forged in secrecy for one like you who - I'm sorry. What's your name?
BUFFY: Buffy.
WOMAN: No, really. (Buffy shrugs in response.)
