Thinky thoughts of the Spike-ish kind

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?

I do have to admit that I identify with him completely. My friends crack up because I'll say, "I am Spike." Buffy's my favorite character (I'm as in love with her as Spike is, though in a totally straight way, of course ;) ), but Spike's the one I always, always understand (except for some of S4).

OMG WORD. Seriously. People think I am hot for Spike (he's very attractive yes) but no. I am him. My brother gets it, and says I am 'Spike without the armor'. I totally identify with him, and also love Buffy because he does. Hell when I dream about BTVS, I am Spike. I thought I was weird and crazy, but yay! Someone else like me!
