Spoiler Slayer

PM Update - Delay because of Blogger.com issues

Wanda had her chat, where she revealed the the 'Giles Kills Spike' rumor was false. Nothing else new, but she did confirm that everyone but Amber Benson is signed through Season Seven.

Sweetie posted further info at Fan Forum.

-What's wrong with Buffy, you ask? Hmmm... I'm tempted to say, but I'll wait a bit longer to spill. I really don't want to ruin the ending and plus, the ep is still a ways away. But let's just say it's the worst possible news for Buffy and the best possible news for b/s shippers, IMO.

-The Spike/Tara interaction in ep 14 is great. She basically teases Spike. For example, she catches him trying to move Buffy's hand to his crotch and he says he has a "muscle cramp". Tara's like, "In your pants?" Later on, he starts to tease Buffy about something and Tara asks him about his "muscle cramp". Then she tells him to put ice on it.

-The way the bed sex was described to me, was that it was very "normal" sex between them - like they were a real couple. And people may argue that Spike came into her bed, uninvited, but Buffy is the one that initiates the sex by getting on top of him. And, yes, Spike is very loving in this scene.

-Buffy doesn't admit any real feelings about Spike to Tara during her confession, but she does tell her that she only feels alive when she's with Spike. And that's quite an admission, IMO.

-I have it on good authority that Tara dies - that's all I'm saying. I don't want to reveal my sources and I can't give out details (yet) but I'm almost positive it's her. I doubt it's Amy, as someone suggested, because Herc said he considers a Scoobie one of the "good guys". I don't consider Amy all that "good". And I don't consider Faith good either.

Sweetie provides some good details, and as expected the Wildfeed from 'Gone' is already giving me ideas on the direction of the second half. I still want to see it before I really start commenting, but I think we have some very clear indications of at least one of the main story arcs.

There was also some new spoilage up at Spoilerdale.

-Buffy and Spike kiss in Episode 16
-Buffy is not the first to discover that Riley has returned

At this point, I'm not even going to consider putting any spoilage about Buffy and Spike's sex life into the Spoiler Slayer. It's not like it's a 'major spoiler' at this point. Right now, she literally has become Buffy, the Vampire Layer (joking). When was the last time we saw a vampire dusted, 'Tabula Rasa'? There is also a Willow spoiler, about her being involved with Tara's death, but it seems incomplete. The site also questions my comments that 'Dead Things' will not be a 'light-hearted romp' as Steven DeKnight says. I do believe that Steven is being sarcastic when he says that.

Dark Horizons posted a bit on the 'Big Scooby Death' (BSD).

'SWERJ' talks about the mid-late section of the sixth season which'll air in coming months, MAJOR spoilers ahead: "Rumors have been abounding that in Feburary sweeps, a major character will be killed off on "Buffy" but no word on who. However, some reports have been coming out that it might not be "death" death
