and it becomes even worse in retrospect with all the other dead-of-mystical-pregnancy women on AtS
Oh yes. I'm not sure they even realised how consistent they were about this, though I'm not sure how they couldn't see it... I mean, Darla, Cordelia, and Fred all go roughly the same way. And that's after Cordelia gets knocked up with demon spawn about 4 times. I'm not saying the trope should never ever under any circumstances be used, but come on.
"Summers blood" makes no sense, but when did Buffy plots ever make sense? It works emotionally.
