Drama queen

He wasn't forcing anyone anything. Those were people he didn't really know or had contact with. Each one of the gang was alone, in their own place: the offices, Harmony's desk... Spike didn't have a place, so he was sitting on the staircase, not talking to anyone. He was keeping his pain and thoughts to himself. That's the opposite from drama queen. What did you want him to do? Tell everybody around him to leave the place? He just found a spot and sat there, not because there were people around them, but because he didn't have a place of his own to go to to mourn.


There are plenty of places he could have found to mourn. You don'y think he could have gone back to his apartment? You don't think there were empty offices about? You don't think he could have went to a lesser used stairwell or the always empty storage offices?

No there were plenty of places he could have gone to mourn. Whether he did it contumaciously or not, he chose the place where everyone would notice. He may not have talked to anyone about his feelings, but he was basically forcing everyone to acknowledge the fact that he was currently being upset there.

Do you REALLY believe he would sit there just because people are there to see him mourn? Do you really think he cares what people think about him, or what he think about others? You don't really know Spike if you think that was his motive. He was mourning at the time, do you think he would think to himself: "Okay, where do I mourn over someone I really really liked so I could force people to actually see me mourn? I know! The staircase! Why would I mourn alone at home where no one can see me and be impressed when I can sit at the lobby in front of everyone?" Was that what he cared about at that time? You're basically saying that he didn't care about Fred, he only cared about his image and ego. Believe me, he wasn't thinking of himself at that time, he was thinking about Fred.

Lots of them have their DQ moments, but I guess I have to go with the Dawn faction. Not that I blame her for it, though. She's a teenager... no wait, a teenager who's actually just half a year old... no, wait, a teenager who's actually a half-year-old ball of energy... geez, she actually took it with comparative dignity and grace! 😛

Seriously! She gets a lot of flack for her antics and who isn't sick of hearing "getoutgetoutgetout," BUT considering what she's gone through, who/what she is, etc. she's quite the little viking. When I was younger I couldn't stand her but now I feel so much for her.

I mean in the span of a year: she discovers she isn't a human being and that all of the people she believes love her in fact have artificial memories of doing so, she discovers that she is a ball of energy that will be used to end the world, her mother dies, and her sister sacrifices her own life so that she won't have to sacrifice hers, to save the world.
And then in season 6, no one is really around to support her or help her even attempt to process this with the exception of Spike in the beginning, Tara in the middle, and just bits of Buffy throughout.
 
They all had their drama queens moments but they were justified most of the time. So I'd say, DQ in a serious way: Angel (see Amends)
DQ in a humorous way: Andrew

Willow is a total drama queen - she acts so up in arms about everything, looking down her nose at the others whenever they do something remotely wrong, and it's all about her shock and horror. Ugh.

When did she do that? When everyone found out that Buffy was seeing Angel behind their backs, she didn't judge her, she told everyone to do the "I" statements. When Xander got pissed about Buffy wanting to restore Angel's soul, Willow didn't judge her, she pretty much just left the decision up to Buffy...whereas Xander guilt tripped her. I seriously cannot think of a time when Willow looked down at someone for doing something wrong. I mean I'm sure she believed that Buffy sneaking around with Angel was wrong...but she didn't seem to judge her for it.

Anyway...to answer the question, I choose Xander haha. He was so damn dramatic at times. Buffy also had her moments when it came to her and Angel.
