Title: They Can Never Know
Artist:
veronyxk84
Fandom: Buffy the Vampire Slayer
Characters: Buffy, Dawn, Tara, Willow, Anya
Episode: 6x03 “After Life”
Episode: 6x07 “Once More, With Feeling”

Content: 1 banner (500x200px) + 20 icons (100x100px)
Made for:
halfamoon
Theme: Day 6: Secrets and/or Lies
Note: SPOILERS for BtVS S6 ahead
I believe that Season 6 of “Buffy the Vampire Slayer” could be the one that best represents this theme. Everyone is keeping secrets, and everyone is lying about something... and there’s always someone paying the consequences.
I also think that the biggest secret/lie is the one that Buffy keeps/tells to her friends: the fact that she was in heaven but tells them that they pulled her out of a hell dimension.
So I picked two episodes that represent Buffy’s confession to the audience through Spike (banner), and Buffy’s revelation to everyone through Sweet’s spell (icons).
There are also other secrets/lies that are discovered during this episode (Willow using a mind-altering spell on Tara; Xander and Anya’s doubts about their upcoming married life) or will be discovered later (Dawn’s kleptomania).
More secrets and lies will pile up after this episode, but I had to make a choice. Also, I didn’t have time to adjust the coloring... so some icons are a bit off. Sorry about that!

But yes, those were some big, messed-up secrets.
