"I kissed him, and I killed him."
That's definitely one of the best murders.
Inara: Mal, this isn't the ancient sea. You don't have to go down with your ship. Mal: She ain't going down. She ain't going anywhere.

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.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
That's as much as dead as the others got.
Her calling him dead doesn't make him dead. Are you saying that stabbing a vampire kills them, or that sending to another dimension does, or that it's the combination?

Going to Hell equals "dead" for whatever that means in the Jossiverse. He was expired on this plane, he was an ex-Angel, he was bleedin' demised.

Was Buffy dead in "Anne"?

Was Connor dead while he was growing up then?

Walking through an interdimensional portal is not the same as having your physical body mortally wounded in our dimension.

Angel's physical body was not mortally wounded though. Wounded, yes; mortally, no.

I'm with Plei about Fred's death. With added sobbing because she was forgetting everyone and everything important to her and the memories of her bunny were stripped away from her. t yes, I still have issues about her damn toy bunny. Shut up, this tag is not closing.

I guess if he was "vampire dead" he would've dusted. I'm trying to remember the details - they just needed Angel's blood to seal the portal? So, like a bad hangnail would've worked instead of a coupe de grace?
Dag, Joss' world-building always did suck, especially when he tried to turn a plot-point on it. He only cares about the emotional resonance of the action, not whether it makes sense. (Hence...so many seasons of Angel which don't make much sense to me with the Jasmine and the Glayvin and Skip and the higher plane and the powers that be.)

I don't see how there are now two deads for a vampire. You stab them in the stomach, you might as well as have given them a paper cut. You jump through a portal, you jump through a portal.
