I agree with everything you'd said. I'm rooting for a one night stand, too. Any of the other options would just....suck.

One-armed Buffy pregnant with a child and no idea who the father is? Or worse yet, it's Angel her enemy, Spike her best friend, Riley her married ex, or Xander her sister's serious boyfriend? Sheesh. Way to make Buffy look pathetic. Smooth move, Joss and Co.

Or, of course, it could be a mystical birth, which would be a tired card to pull at this time, but I wouldn't put it past Joss.

It's not clear what Spike is to her at the moment, but he's not the best friend. They've just started to reconnect and it's all very ambiguous at the moment. She considers Willow and Xander her best friends, as always (which got confirmed in this issue). I don't think she'd even call Spike her friend, she probably wouldn't know what to call him.

Also, Spike and Angel are out of the question for the obvious reason. Plus, she hasn't even been near Angel for more than 7 months. I don't think she has a mystical vampire elephant pregnancy.

I agree with you regarding the who might be the father. I'm looking forward to the spuffy of it all!
