I decided to do my paper on the Halloween episode of Buffy the Vampire, and I have a couple ideas about what I want to do my focus on. I considered Buffy and Angel, and make a thesis about them. They have a lot of tension between them and they finally want to start dating and its just dangerous. There are so many problems that come with complicated relationships like this. Their lives are in danger when they are dating, but I guess its good because he cares more than enough about her and she is very attracted to him too. The next best option would be Xander but she is very into Angel. Their relationship is kind of a necessary but risky relationship. I guess the paper could also be on like, the perils and trials of love. They seem to be perfect for one another, theres the quirky exciting girl and the very laid back calm guy. Of course, since things seem great, their ability to actually become a couple has to be thwarted and ruined all the time, they can't just be a happy couple. Other than that I could write about the common theme of how things aren't always what they seem. Every episode they are duped by a person, or in this one, costumes. They never really stop getting confused by other people that they don't know. Lastly, I could also write about Giles. He goes with the lesson that sometimes the people you cannot stand the most are the ones that end up saving you and know whats best for you. He knows what she's missing out on in her teen years but he knows how to save her life and make sure she does what she's meant to do for the world.

You could probably write a pretty good and interesting paper about the trials and perils of love. You could use some well known examples and stories as well, such as Romeo and Juliet or basically any of the Greek myths.
