As for Wesley's likelyhood of signing away his soul, the Wes who signed up probably thought he was going to Hell anyway what with the Connor betrayal thing
But wasn't he surprised Lilah had done it?
Oh, I get it. You just don't like who did the rescuing, that's all. Wishin' I was your boyfriend what's-his-height. Oh wait, he's run off.

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

Life is eternal, Love is immortal, and death is only an illusion.
I would think Wes of all people may have been aware of that particular clause.
One of the first things he did was to try and fail to free Lilah. But then our hero's always did think they controled the Beast.
Now here is the kicker. If Fred signed that, then would her soul not be destroyed like the others think but still out there too?
As for a movie. I don't really want one. I love the universe where it is. But if there has to be one, I prefer a Dru/ Spike pre Sunnydale.

No, the contract would not prevent her soul from being destroyed, only from her giving it to someone else, or becoming a vampire. (since the soul isn't destroyed, it's "gone")

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
Cranky showrunnerboy Ira Steven Behr:
"The other thing that reminds me of 'Deep Space Nine,'" he says, "is I just don't understand why it's so [hard for fans to understand]. If you want a pacifier, you can get them for 99 cents at Sav-On drugs down the block. If you want to suck on something that's going to make you feel protected and warm and all cuddly, they have those things. They're made of rubber, and you stick them in your mouth.

Not having has never been the thing I've regretted most in my life. Not trying is.
Ira's been smoking the Brannon Braga shit.
Put the pipe down, baby.

The pacifier makes me think it's ecstasy instead.

Really? I kept thinking, "awww, are him's witty bitty diamond shoes too tight?"

That I don't think Brannon would share.
I really, really, REALLY hate writers/actors slagging on the fans. Even the craxy ones.
It's one thing to objectively identify the craxy and distance for self-preservation. It's a whole other thing to blame the audience for not being who you want them to be.
It's classless.
And, I think the button's cooled off now, so I'm back to lurking.
