10 years ago tomorrow! (*facepalm*)

I think it was Sueworld who a few days ago mentioned that Spike is like the little black dress of fandom. This struck me as particularly apt as I posted today's fic, because it could barely be more different from yesterday's: One was Spike/Angel, with a heavy emphasis on the fact that they are very much demons still. The other is Spuffy, with a shanshued Spike becoming a father. And yet both are just Spike. He fits into one scenario as easily as the other. Which I guess is why we all love him - there are endless facets to explore and enjoy, because he can be - and has been - pretty much everything.

Anyway, for those of you who enjoy some Spuffy (even if it *is* baby!fic), here's today's offering:

I didn’t know it’d feel like this.

And, so as to make this post less self-centric, a few more recs:

missmurchison posted (porny!) S/B/A fic: No Illusions.

And annapurna_2 returned, bringing wonderful, *fabulous*, Spuffy goodness with her (I could drown in her stories):

Muted (post-NFA)
Beginnings (The Spuffy story in drabbles)
Made for Each Other (AU Late AtS S5)

Must watch 'School Hard' tonight. (Incidentally, I missed it when it was first shown and never saw it until post-Chosen...)

Spike is just everybody's everything ... if you will let him!

He needed love in the series - and those of us who do love him realise how much character he had (... and, of course, how great an actor James is.) But Spike - whatever way you want him to go - he can ... he is marvellous

Exactly!

He needed love in the series
So he did, poor thing. Although of course giving people what they want doesn't make for good TV...

But Spike - whatever way you want him to go - he can ... he is marvellous
Amen! And he had enough character for 10 people!
