Yeah, I could do that, but I'm paralyzed with not caring very much.

Spike ,'Showtime'


The Minearverse 4: Support Group for Clumsy People  

[NAFDA] "There will be an occasional happy, so that it might be crushed under the boot of the writer." From Zorro to Angel (including Wonderfalls and The Inside), this is where Buffistas come to anoint themselves in the bloodbath.

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

I don't think that Angel & Spike & Illyria & Gunn & Wesley & Lindsey & Eve survived the end of the show

But didn't the show end before anything happened to Angel and Spike and Illyria and Gunn?

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Of course, nothing may happen at all, and he'll finish Moon, and the next show will go to pilot, and there could be no Spike flick at all, and the 'verse is truly dead.

Which is what I'd like, truth be told.

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.

Joss got asked aobut the spike thing in a quiet moment in Edinburgh (which resulted in urges to batter myself) and basically said what we already knew: nothing is signed.

The only way I can personally see it being worth doing is to take it out of the post NFA world and take it back in time (or vastly forward in time) to a different setting, to examine a different side of James... I mean Spike. And for god sakes, keep his clothes on.

take it back in time

Oh please, yes. With Dru. I want the adventures of Dru & Spike. Honestly, I just want the adventures of Dru, but I know that won't happen.

Did your head explode with the whole "the immortal" thing on Angel?

I was sort of like, "No, there was a bus and Buffy smiled and the show was over and I was cool with that ending, I don't want to know about her dating some greasy Adrien Brody-type character riding a vespa through venice."
