Well, Harmony wouldn't mind.
Y'all see the man hanging out of the spaceship with the really big gun? Now I'm not saying you weren't easy to find. It was kinda out of our way, and he didn't want to come in the first place. Man's lookin' to kill some folk. So really it's his will y'all should worry about thwarting.

Is it better the second time around? Or the third? Or tenth? This is the place to come when you have a burning desire to talk about an old episode that was just re-run.

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

All signs point to bedroom skills as one of Harm's few real talents, so I might go with F.

What signs are those? I skimmed S5, and can't quite find any.

Trust my rage
I always assumed that bedroom skills were the only reason Spike was with her.

If I only had a brain...
But Spike is enough of a horndog that "willing" is probably sufficient; I don't see him holding out for "expert".

I don't see Spike as being the world's greatest judge of bedroom skills, either. As far as we know, his experience at that point was pretty much Drusilla -- who doesn't strike me as an especially focused lover -- possibly being used as a toy by Darla and Angelus, and anyone he might have raped. Not exactly experiences likely to teach one the Kama Sutra.

Ann, that's a ferret.

I'll add that William, being a middle-class Victorian male, probably had experiences with prostitutes. Which really doesn't change the above conclusion.

You think? I suppose statistically you're right, but I just see him as too much of a mama's boy for that.

Hey, Spike's sex skills! always fun to discuss.

You think?
Probably but not certainly. Being a mama's boy with Victorian attitudes, he certainly wouldn't have told her if he did.
