GIP!

Look what [livejournal.com profile] earth_vexer made for me! [insert much squeeing] (Please snag - sharing is a good thing!)

In case you're trying to place the images, they're from the beginning of 'Harm's Way' when Spike drops in to say goodbye. He and Angel snark as usual and have this exchange:

SPIKE: Yeah. Here's the thing. Could use a little walkin'-around money. How 'bout a few hundred?
ANGEL: How 'bout 'no'?
SPIKE: Typical, you cheap sod. Right, then. Settle for some wheels.
ANGEL: If it's gonna get you out of here faster, fine. Just not the Viper.
SPIKE: Viper it is, then. (Angel turns, starts walking away) Any message for Buffy?
ANGEL: (without looking back at Spike) Tell her you're a moron.

And then - Spike smiles *that* smile! ::points to icon::

Now - just a few days before these two were viciously fighting each other, and now... hmmm. That smile is gosh darn *cute* - almost affectionate.

See after discovering Lament for the Dead by [livejournal.com profile] stir_of_echoes about 1-2 months ago I was suddenly taken with the idea that their 'one time being intimate' happened post-Destiny (read the fic, it makes it *beautifully* plausible - the quiet counterpoint to the stormy battle). And then we get the sniping and uncomfortableness in 'Harm's Way' because... well they're NOT going to ever talk about it, are they? And Spike going off across the pond might actually be a good thing from Angel's POV. ;)

I like this theory a LOT! And of course JM's 'infatuated' was too good not to use. Heh.

(I still adore Spuffy btw. But since S/A *is* canon...)
