And the thing is, I like my evil like I like my men: evil. You know, straight up, black hat, tied to the train tracks, soon my electro-ray will destroy metropolis BAD.

I don't see Xander as gay *BUT*, and this is a huge *BUT*, and it could be the Canon's Bitch in me talking, Xander has more than his fair share of issues surrounding his sexuality. He likes girls. He knows he likes girls. However, I would guess he's had more than one wet dream about an XY, and may have done some fooling around to boot, probably with Jesse.

If I wasn't so lazy, I'd dig up all the supporting evidence.

Bill, my friend, strange deeds are afoot at the Circle K.

As one of my friends put it, "I wondered why Xander was in so very many stories. And then I realized, well, someone has to be the bottom."

(Suddenly realizes that Xander hasn't ever bottomed in anything I've slashed him in. But he has gotten a lot of blow jobs.)

I knew you were odd when you started posting Kissinger slash, but this is just too much! My world has been shattered.

Topping/Bottoming history in m/m slash. (Topping/Bottoming used loosely here.)

Billy Tallent - Manipulative bottom. See topping comma through.
Xander Harris - Closest he's come to topping is giving hand jobs. 
Wesley Wyndam-Pryce - Switch.
Spike - Bottom.
Charles Gunn - Didn't get too specific, but Switch.
Angelus - Top.
I've never written a topping Spike. Bitch has always bottomed. Even in Het stuff, he's bottomed.

You sip / say it's your crazy / straw say it's you're crazy / as you bicycle your soul / with beauty in your basket

That was interesting for me, as somebody who's more "Slash? The hell?" than not.

As some one who's more "Slash? Duh." than not (for actually a host of carefully-reasoned intellectual reasons, but a different sort of reasons than W's, more meta and postmodern, really), that was really boring for me.

But. Ah. Not the point.

Oh.

This is beautiful. And a very strange pairing. And it made me cry.

How are you me? You need to stop that. Only I can be me. ~Kara

Beautiful and strange, didn't make me cry, but intriguing, yes.

How could it not make you cry? It made me cry at the past-future lines. Which I'm now wearing as a tagline.

sniffle

I am a delicate little thing.

I'm not always sure what will make me cry. Sometimes, these days, stupid Hallmark commercials make me cry. Sorry.
