The Bond line was totally stolen from the show! But it was too good not to use!
P'rhaps he'll love all the harder for it? Because he realises it's not ever-lasting? Hmmm, it's not really a question of strength of feeling... more the fact that you can't make another person your sole reason to exist.
Oooooooooooooh! Hee! :) It's interesting what we say when we don't stop to think about it. In some ways their argument is very similar to the one Buffy and Angel had in 'The Prom', only Spike never saw Buffy as 'the little schoolgirl' that he needed to protect. I so loved turning the argument on it's head! :)
Very insightful! Thanks! Spike is very much a 'forever' kind of guy when it comes to love, whereas Buffy is hopeless at committing (yet). Which is sort of my angle on the whole thing - Spike wanted to eat cookie-Buffy, not cookie-dough, but thought that he wouldn't be able to... he never saw himself as Mr Right, only Mr. Right-now, which wasn't enough.
