I think you're right. *sob*
Nothing worse than a monster who thinks he's right with God.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

The generation that could change the world is still looking for its car keys.
I think Illyria loved Wesley more than Fred did.
I think that Wesley was all Illyria ever loved, whereas Fred had other loves to compare it to.

The evil is this way?
I think Illyria loved Wesley more than Fred did.
Yep. He went all crazy for her and everything. What more could a girl immortal being ask for?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Why do you think Illyria loved Wes more than Fred did? I think she made an attachment, but I wouldn't put a capital L on it.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Yep. He went all crazy for her and everything.
'Cause Wes was always so rational about Fred...

Wes hasn't been rational over anything for quite a while. I mean, by those lights, Connor should have boffed him, not Cordy.

This is going to sound really weird, but I think Illyria loved Wesley with a selfless love. She didn't care if he wanted her to be herself or Fred or whomever. She just liked being around him and she wanted to see him at peace. She followed him around all the time. In Origin she got ticked off pretty quickly at Angel when she suspected him of fucking with Wesley's world. Her speech in TGiQ about how she couldn't stand to see anymore grief from anyone, said to me that she couldn't deal with his grief anymore. She was very hurt when he didn't want to be near her and she stopped imitating Fred when he asked her to.
I just think that for Fred, Wesley was a nice guy whom she started viewing romantically years after she met him. I don't think it was ever a deep thing with her. Illyria seemed to need him.

I don't know if agape means anything to an ex-god, but I kinda see I/W and F/W as apples and oranges.

I think that the Illyria love is like the imprinting of a baby chick (like someone said earlier) She didn't know what else to do, so she tried to make her guide happy (like when she went with Wes to the sorcerer's house)
