sniffle. Poor Anya. And poor Xander, too. The horribleness of his family is in the ep for a reason - to supply some reasons for Xander's actions beyond simply the (proven false) visions. Looking at his family, those visions ring all too possible. He's terrified of ending up like his parents, I suppose... but oh, poor Anya! To find out on her wedding day! (that's ME for ya, isn't it? All that Jossian pain just keeps coming....)
I agree with whoever it was who said they thought the vision of him hitting Anya was probably one of the most shocking to him. I got the impression in 'Restless' that his father was verbally and mentally abusive, and possibly physically too (ripping out Xan's heart only partly metaphorical, perhaps). Wonder if Xander has ever seen his father hit his mother? Might explain much.
On a lighter note, Anya's wedding vows are far too funny. And yay for W/T smileyness. They can't keep their hands off each other
This is what it should've been like in season 4, in the eps running up to NMR. Flirtation and mutual attraction and... bless...
Thanks once again, Leoff. You're the best
