ill-starred (comic)
"Le Guignon" by Charles Baudelaire, The Flowers of Evil, 1857 ("Ill-Starred" trans. William Sigler)
baudelaire is one of my favorite poets of all time, and its only coincidental that he tended to write about the kind of stuff that i imagine spike and buffy might be drawn to (beauty, death, revolt) as a vampire or slayer. i think there is a kind of death within isolation, and they're just two people being alone together.

and this might be incredibly obvious or whatever but one of if not the most important acting choices jm made as spike without really knowing if his character would have a future or whatever is one million percent the first time spike sees buffy in school hard at the bronze. it both intentionally and unintentionally sets up their entire dynamic for the entire series and it blows my mind. jm said he always played up the attraction and it really works but it's this look at buffy, this look that feels like it lasts both a really long time and not a long time at all, human face with wide interested eyes--but they aren't seductive, predator-like eyes, it's a lot like how he will eventually look at her on the show. but only we the audience get to see it. a lot of the love/attraction that we see spike express is out of view of buffy and in view of the audience instead! in the bronze, the only version of spike that buffy sees is the one he allows her to see and wants her to see, the predator, the mystery, the slayer-killer. the contrast of the two scenes sets up their relationship and who he is and his personal growth journey--- the dichotomy between man and monster and is one enabling the other in him? is the man in him helping the monster or deflating the monster, and is he under control?
