I've never heard of anyone who thinks S1 is the Best Evah.
I think Matt the Bruins Fan is in this camp.
I am not having sex with Spike! But I'm starting to think that you might be.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Yeah, I realized after posting that I probably shouldn't have said "never." Because there's always a counterexample. You'd think I'd learned that after almost four years of Married Arguments, if nothing else...

All is well that ends in pizza.
And I think Giles and Jenny were grown-ups, with a grown-up relationship -- which yes, would have included The Sex at some point
I very much got the impression they were rounding in on that. And I don't think the grown-up and The Sex are mutually dependent.
Their kind of adult relationship would have included The Sex.
ETA: I ment that in the Rupert/Jenny one, the sex was going to be part of the adult relationship.

At some point, yes. But I don't think they were there yet before she died.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there
I was just reading a fic that mentioned Spike and Andrew being sent off to find whatever it was they were looking for, and it said they'd gone to Gilroy. Is that from the show? Because I'd hate to think I'd missed snerking at sending a vampire to Gilroy.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
But they were in high school. A lot of high schoolers do major "heavy petting" but don't go all the way. It seemed reasonable to me.
And isn't that fun? Sighhh
The part that struck me false, however, was that Cordelia wasn't a virgin yet, was she? In my experience, once people start "doing it" they rarely stop without some reason.
Season 1 is my favorite too. t Goes and sits with Matt

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

That's kinda ... absolute.
There *is* a point in most relationships, adult or no, where you haven't had sex yet. I didn't see a level of casual physical intimacy between them that said "nookie". Olivia -- clear, Joyce -- clear through dialogue. Jenny? NSM. He loved her a lot, wanted her, but I see no intimation other than each of our own personal interpreatations of "Adult" that they was groin bumpage.

do you mean she's already lost her virginity by the time she and Xander were dating? I honestly have no idea. Though I agree with the rest of your statement.

I was under the impression that our Cordy got around. Later on in Angel she seemed suddenly de-hotted and chaste.
