Spike as a Champion

You know, I've considered this a 1000 times. The only thing that WOULD have made sense (to me) is that Spike WOULD HAVE tried to see/get to Buffy, but upon doing so, learned that she was with "The Immortal" - & then that whole episode of Spike & Angel trying to "rescue" her from The Immortal could have happened... but it was too far in the season, & the show had already been cancelled.... YET STILL...

I'm not as freaked over the fact that our Spike didn't even TRY to contact Buffy as I am at the fact that upon gaining his corporealness, he immediately went to have sex with HARMONY. I mean..... COME ON. That "non-relationship" was soooo done; I really don't think Spike would have thought twice about Harmony, after his relationship with Buffy went the way it did. But of course, that "sex thing" was kind of classic Spike... the bad boy Spike, just a wee little bit... even if it was w/Harmony.

In BuffanatorVerse, Spike would have gone to see Buffy, and they would have done the jiggity-bump, and Buffy would have explained to Spike her fear of Angel going "to the dark side" & Spike would have come back to LA in order to help Angel, because he knew it meant so much to Buffy.

But WhedonVerse somehow won out... 🙄

I would have liked that. More tension between Angel and Spike, and no Immortal!

Just think about it. If your car stops running, and you have to have it repaired, what's the first thing you do after the repairs have been made? Check to make sure it runs right. That's just what Spike was doing. making sure that his motor still ran.

I just finshed watching the third disc of Angel season 5, and Spike leaves to tell Buffy he's been resurrected. But then, he reconsiters, and desides he's rather she remember him dying to save the world, as a hero. I was really suprised by that. What do you all think of that? It seemed out of character for Spike. He always likes recognition for his actions...and doesn't he miss her terribly?

Maybe she finds out later, I don't know...
but what did you all think of that?

Whether he's right or not he's said twice (on each show) that he doesn't think he can get Buffy. In Chosen he tells her that she doesn't love him, but thanks her for lying to him.

In TGIQ he admits to Angel that he knows he doesn't have a shot with her.

So even if Buffy does love Spike, he doesn't think she does.

I think that might also be one of the reasons why he didn't go to her. I think no matter how much Buffy loved Spike, he'd always think she prefered Angel, just like how he wanted to have Drusilla away from Angelus. His two great loves both had something with Angel in a way and I think that might have made him insecure. I think there's soemthing there for a psychologist ^^
And therefore he might prefer that she remembered him as a hero who died to save the world. If she found out about his ressurection, that would have taken a lot of the coolness off it, and it might also have reminded her of Angel, and (in Spike's eyes) what happened with Angel after Buffy killed him and so on, might seem more impressive, since in a way, they both died while saving the world.
