Angel on TNT

[ms_scarletibis]

It's true--

I own all seasons of both Ats and BtVS.  And every time I've planned on doing a marathon of some kind, something would get in the way.  However, watching the reruns of Buffy on Oxygen on occasion, and now every morning on TNT for Angel...I'm finding the fandom love [again].  I've found a squee I hadn't realized was missing.  Currently, I

Wohoo - and the light returns! My daughter downloaded and burned BTVS and Angel (at least all Spike episodes) for me. I'm rewatching Angel a lot to see....possibilities. Someone told me recently that the romantic arc for the season (according to Joss) was supposed to be Angel/Spike(not w/f/I?. Not sure I believe that but I am seeing a lot more in Angel's eyes.

I do love Wes - might well be willing to watch the early eps just to get a better idea of who he is. Also love Cordelia, Lorne, Fred....but Spike is my obsession.

Yeah--s5 of Ats was very Spangel heavy. In it, we learn that at least once, Spike and Angel were intimates. They really were the best pairing on both 'verses, IMO. They were so wickedly adorable :p

I very much rec watching Ats from beginning to finish. In my personal opinion, it's a better show, and amazing when Spike's added as a permanent fixture. S5 is my fave season, but I love the show overall :)

The interaction with Spike and Angel were great in Ats5. James Marsters and David Boreanaz were great together. I really liked all the actors on the series and all the characters - who would have thought that Wesley from BtVS would have become Wes from AtS. That scene when he shoots that knee right out of the employee - still haunts me as does his episode with his robot dad.

Not gonna lie--Wes shooting out that knee cap...I thought it was hilarious :p

The part with his "father" was sad, however. He didn't have to kill him to stop him from hurting Fred...I think we learned two things in that instance--that he was willing to do any and everything for her (and I'm still unsure as to why), and that deep down, he probably wanted his father dead. He could have gone to wound him--shoot him in a certain part of his shoulder to take out his arm--the one that was used to threaten Fred. Instead, he shot him several times center mass--death kill.

I do wish there had been a season six - both Boreanz and Marsters have said they wanted the focus on Spike and Angel...sigh.

My assumption is that Angel and Spike did it once - but Angelus and Will fucked like bunnies on Viagra. No proof - just gives me a happy!
:p

[ms_scarletibis]

No, it's mentioned in s5 of Ats that they had sex at least once. Proof--there it is ;)

<--wrote a fic speculating on the how and the when.

[spikesjojo]

Gonna have to read that one.

Yeah, I know Angel and Spike had sex at least once - I remeber his comment to Blue. Do you think Angelus and Will had tons of sex? Whedon said they did, and so did Marsters. (After all, Spike said Angel and not Angelus!)

[ms_scarletibis]

Oh...I see what you meant.

I'm torn. On the one hand, Angel nor Spike differentiates themselves from their soulless counterparts, so when Spike made that comment, I assumed they meant once ever, and not once soulled...Joss said they were both open minded, so...

Okay, I'll have to ponder this :p

Um, I know they were pissed with Darla and Dru for not letting them have group sex initially, according to TGiQ...but I reckon, their sleeping arrangements changed after that.

[spikesjojo]

Well, if Darla and Dru were having sex (as implied in the Immortal scene - they knew what each other liked) then I suspect that Angelus and Will were turned on and lonely and horny and.....yum!

It may be a stretch but I think Whedon and Marster's comments make it practically canon!
