Thinky thoughts of the Spike-ish kind

[lirazel]

This is one of those "I'm having a conversation on whedonesque; tell me what you think about what I'm saying" posts.

This particular conversation starts out about Willow/Tara (and my thoughts line up precisely with Emmie's, big surprise there) and then becomes about S6 and then, finally, becomes about Spike.

And I just wrote a novel.

But I feel like I left something vital out.

Any thoughts?

It was just a thought. I was trying to imagine what show he could have been watching to have been #1 so bitter about Spike and #2 so worried about Xander's character. Maybe someone who looked/acted like Spike was mean to him in high school or something...

And I was just trying to edit the comment when you answered it and shut me out. lol I have no idea where I was going with that first sentence, but I obviously had my brain somewhere not involved with the syntax. I reread it and went "Huh?" I think I meant to say I only read the first few replies to your post, but have no idea why it didn't come out like that. *goes off to have caffeine containing beverage*

It was a reasonable thought and probably the conclusion I would have arrived at had I not read some of his other stuff in other threads.

This is me, chortling!

Hee! I hate the you-can't-edit-once-someone's-replied rule. Has it always been the case? Because I don't remember it being the case a while back. I understood what you meant, though, so never fear. And enjoy your caffeine!
