Angel 5: Is That It? Am I Done?  

[NAFDA] This is where we talk about the show! Anything that's aired in the US (including promos) is fair game. No spoilers though -- if you post one by accident, an admin will delete it.

The terms can apply either to physical position or dom/sub dynamics, and the two aren't always synonymous.

I don't see Angel as a bottom in either sense of the word, but that may have as much to do with my impression of Lindsey as with Angel himself.

"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman

Angel is a bottom. Angelus is a top. Spike is a bottom who thinks he's a top

CLASSIC.

Maybe a bottom who wishes he were a top.

also true

I think that lindsey would be a top, because he would want to be in control, which he never was. I don't know that Angel would let him, though. But maybe if he were feeling the need to be punished . . .

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Oh, Lindsey is such a bottom.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Angelus is a top. Spike is a bottom who thinks he's a top

Which is why Angelus + Spike is pure porn, baby.

An awful lot of Jossverse guys are bottoms. Interesting.

Though Wesley, I'm thinking, is a top who thinks he should be a bottom, which is far rarer than a bottom who thinks he's a top.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

I can see Angel, as opposed to Angelus, taking a sub role, but there'd be a fair amount of topping from below going on.

I'd say Giles is a top. Gunn's a top who'd probably bottom for someone he was really gaga over. Xander -- so bottomly bottom a bottom has never before bottomed.

Ann, that's a ferret.

so bottomly bottom a bottom has never before bottomed.

Actually, that would be Lorne.

If I only had a brain...

Lorne is a queen, but that's not the same thing necessarily.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I can see Lorne in the leather with a whip no problem. Nipple clamps in one hand, seabreeze in the other.

Damn you, I'm never going to be able to get rid of that mental image now!
