shadowscast: First Slayer shadow puppet (Default)
I just watched a bunch of late S3, early S4 eps with a friend who hasn't seen most of the series before. (Yay, sucking in another one!)

I'd forgotten that in "Living Conditions," when Buffy and her pre-Willow roommate are going through all that stuff, Buffy is apparently missing "part" of her soul. So, hey, maybe a little insight available here on what a soul's supposed to mean in the Jossverse! We mostly worry about it in the context of vampires not having them (or having them, as the case may be). What happens to Buffy when she's missing part of hers? She doesn't have a demon in her, just a partly-missing soul. And she becomes...bitchy. Irritable. She drinks the milk right out of the carton just to annoy her roommate.

So that's it! The soul is what makes you a good roommate.

No wonder Spike got on Xander's nerves.

Um, well, that was deep. I guess I'll go to bed now.
