I love how many buffyverse characters I'm getting. :D
How I feel about this character: I love Spike, I think he's an interesting character. I just got done rewatching S5 and its such an interesting season for him, to see all the different transitions he goes through. Not just his love for Buffy, but how he changes into someone reliable, who cares about other people, who grows to care about Dawn and Joyce (he didn't leave a card, he just wanted to show his respect to the lady) and how he went from being obsessed to knowing he didn't have a chance, but still loving Buffy anyways. I love his "I'm a monster, but you treat me like a man speech'. I also love his darker side, that he is a villain, that he has been since he was turned. I love that after he got his soul back, he was changed, but he was still him. His overall personality didn't change. And yet, he was still capable of inspirational speeches and defending the people who needed it. All the people I ship romantically with this character: Buffy, Drusila, Fred, and sometimes Willow. My non-romantic OTP for this character: Angel. I know they hate each other half the time, but they're also family and they know each other better than anyone else, that's what makes them hate each other so much. Also Dawn, but they'd have to go back and fix things post S6. My unpopular opinion about this character: I...don't know if I have one. One thing I wish would happen / had happened with this character in canon: I would have liked to see his and Dawn's relationship/frindship repaired. Its understandable why she hated him on her sisters behalf, but they were friends once, he was the first friend she made on her own, and they had a relationship. She trusted him an he cared about him. I wish there had been time/they had dealt with that in S7 after he had gotten his soul back. My het ship: Tie between him and Dru and all that history and him and Fred and everything that could have been. My fem/slash ship: Spike/Angel/us. I can't say I really ship ship it, but its pretty much canon and it makes sense to me. (Far more than other ships I've seen for him.) My OTP: Buffy/Spike. My OT3: Ummm...I don't know if I have one for him either. I don't see him as really the sharing type, evidenced by how he reacted to Dru and Angelus. My crossover ship: Spike/Katherine. I think they'd meet up when him and Dru were on the offs reek havoc and then both go their seperate ways. And it would be fabulous. A headcanon fact: My gender bend: I'm still going with the who I'd cast as the opposite sex for the role, because I assume that's what it means...Cassidy Freeman. She's gorgous (and I think she's naturally a blonde), but she's also strong and looks like she could be dangerous just by the way she moves or acts. She's also sexy and can pull off that whole danger vibe needed for Spike, but also a more sensative side that comes out sometimes, especially with Buffy.
