I'm a bit worried I'm starting to seriously ship Dawn/Satsu. The idea's been in my head for a while, but I thought it was mostly for the lulz - yet as time's gone on I keep realising that I'm forgetting about Dawn/Xander when I think of S8, and, reading the Satsu wiki page to remind myself of her plotline, I found myself having a rush of irrational shipper-anger on her behalf when I realised she and Buffy get together a second time at the end of Wolves at the Gate. (Did not know this happened - why did no one tell me?? From Buffy's perspective I'm just a bit disappointed, but from Satsu's it's the whole 'dammit, foolish slayer, don't you see there is no good here? Desist with this romantic attachment and see the light!' indignation. I know she chucks the lipgloss in the bin later, but...)
*sigh* + *facepalm* + *headdesk*
Spuffy are supposed to be an anomaly, I tell you! A popular, well-represented anomaly where, even if I find myself unable to enjoy fic where they're in different ships, it doesn't matter because there's still loads of stuff to go around. Also, I am not supposed to care about a random character whose dialogue I can't even recall particularly. (Though, tangent, I know this is old news in S8 whinging circles, but that 'ma'am' thing? CREEPY AS.)
...
Does anyone else think they're a good idea?
