Day Twelve: Spike/Lilah

Jun 12, 2004 03:57

Mm, Spike/Lilah. To me, I break it down like this: Your first love is all OMG So Deep and Forever and ohmygod the messy ending, and your second love is big with the angst and the high-running emotions and the rollercoaster and surprises and stuff. After that, I don't know about you but I'd wanna kick back and have a chill, low-strings sexay ( Read more... )

Okay, this is one of my favored Lilah het pairings, and one that I think makes a large amount of sense. I do think it suffers from the fact that Spike/Buffy and Lilah/Wes have so much intensity and passion attached, both for good and for ill, that it's hard to detach either Spike or Lilah from what was clearly the great passionate love thing of their (current) lives.

At the same time, this is at very least a killer friendship pairing, because they'd so bond over everything. Angel being sanctimonious, the world being a little absurd, the extreme lack of Cool attached to being a Goody-Goody. I do also think Lilah and Spike would see through each other's poses, and that could either lead to a fabulous love connection or some really angry interaction.

I do think it could be more than mellow; I think Spike's obsessive tendencies would shoot that in the foot eventually, and I think Lilah would have to decide how dominant she wants to be over "Love's Bitch" Spike on how well it would work.

Also, I really don't think there are enough ships out there that would absolutely and totally irritate every last person not involved in it. And that would attract Lilah so much that it's not funny.

...so yes. Mmm, Spikelah.

See, I definitely see Spike as a sub to women and to Angelus...Angel and Xander I tend to see switch or Spike dominating...and while Lilah and Faith are generally more pushy bottom/sub, I always picture Spike/Lilah and Faith/Spike with the girls on top. Because then Spike gets his worshipful lower stance, and the girls trade off the subness in exchange for unconsciously thinking they've got this vicious beast licked.
This is just in the bedroom, though. Domestically? I see L/S are prone to odd couple-ness...you know, mix a slob with a neat freak, fireworks ensue, but it's all good because after a day of fighting and screaming, they end up on the couch, watching Dawson's Creek and snarking on Joey Potter.

Also, I really don't think there are enough ships out there that would absolutely and totally irritate every last person not involved in it. And that would attract Lilah so much that it's not funny.

Hee! Oh, you're not wrong. Everyone would be gaping and gawing...except, maybe Gunn. Gunn would just be like, whatever man. And Angel would buy Lilah and Spike a luscious penthouse, because hey, at least it means Spike ain't dogging after Buffy anymore.

I have perhaps given too much thought to all of this, heh.

I'm over 1300 words.

Spike and Lilah are like ten-year-old boys.

I've been watching Dawson's Creek just to get in the mood.

I hate you so much. SO MUCH.

Dude, does anyone NOT see the boob chatter? At least, in my world?

No. Everyone is sitting around going "Wow. Jen's gayer than a box of monkeys with Audrey, ain't she?"

I've been watching Appetite for Destruction and Something Wild for inspiration.
