I like Spike.
I mean, I really do. I like Evil!Spike. I like Obsessed with Buffy!Spike, even. I really like crazy Spike.
I just didn't like Fandom!Spike. Mr. 'I'm good without a soul', Mr. 'Buffy doesn't love me, so she's a bitch'.
Or, worst of all, the whole 'Spuffy' thing. The name itself makes me shudder in distaste. Spuffy. It's so... I hate to say stupid, but, you know what? I really want to say stupid.
I liked what the writers did with the Spike/Buffy relationship. Pretty much everything, actually. I just hate what a lot of fandom has done with them. Most of fandom, from what it seemed.
