The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

But they had Spike/JM say it, not DB/Angel. At about the same time DB/Angel was pretending that Angel saying " I want you Lindsey" needed to be rephrased.

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

Support it or not, it kinda makes it explicit (okay, not enough for many purposes). DB can not want to say it as much as he wants. It doesn't make his character het.

Oh, I'm not saying the character was. Matt's original statement was that

On Angel it had the full, intentional support of all concerned from the top down.

I agree with everyone except maybe DB. Although he played along, he never seemed fully comfortable or supportive of it.

I was just commenting on the Angel is not gay denial -- comfortable or supportive or no -- Angel was intimate with Spike and it would have been weird for the actor to be denying it after those lines were delivered.

Oh. I think some of them were later, but I could be wrong.

Angel may just object to the wording. Perhaps he prefers to be fey or something more from the Romantic era.

Angel, or DB?

Either. Both.

Though I've always admired DB's clothing optional tendencies, for what that's worth, relevance aside.

vanguard of the socialist Hollywood liberal homosexualist agenda

Perhaps it is Angelus that is the randy bugger, whereas Angel (a.k.a. Liam of the old skool Irish Catholic guilt, or equivalent) lumps "that one time" (or the many, many times) with Spike into the pile of Evil Things Angelus Did.

Or maybe he just doesn't want people to think that the poncy hair is actually his.

I'm with Ailleann. That's the sort of thing Angelus would do and Angel would feel wretchedly guilty for thinking about often.
