I said it before but it doesn't hurt to repeat myself, I like. But then you know me and water. :)

Creatively done :) Good Spike voice, and I always enjoy irritated Angel.

I like Angel - I really do - but after seeing Destiny, I truly believe that in the long run, Spike would have been the Vamp to gain the Shansu. He got his soul by choice, whereas Angel had been cursed (and as Angelus proved over and over, definitely resented and tried to avoid resouling).

Good job!

[agilebrit]

Thanks! Honestly, I think Spike would have probably gotten the Shanshu too (crosses fingers and toes for the Spike movie they've been teasing us about)...but Angel getting it worked better for this particular plot. And, hey, maybe TPTB have something better planned for Spike somewhere down the road. :o)

Heh - if anything, Spike would wind up with the Shansu because it would piss him off :g:! Now that is a Spike movie subject I'd love to see!

[agilebrit]

*snicker* That would be fun.

Ooh, enjoyable! I like how Illyria gets hit by all that emotion in the shower, and Spike comforts her. And the notion of Angel not being to sign a prophecy away really makes sense, too. Good one.
