Spike/Ethan
Holy Moses, writing an essay on Spike/Ethan is hard. It's like trying to sell freezers to eskimos. *grumbles*
I mean, I can list similarities and conflicts,and I have a clear idea why *I* like the pairing, but what I'm writing reads kinda boring. For a proper sales pitch, for an essay that is suited to launch a thousand fics, or, well, maybe a dozen or so, I have to be not only convincing but also irresistable.
Do I quote? Do I list epis? Do I quote from interviews? Do I suggest plot bunnies? *sigh*
Which reminds me. Whatever happened to the Jane Espenson video made during writercon? I'd love to quote what wonderful!Jane said on Ethan and Giles.

Robin Sachs is a wickedly sexy old slut and I adore him

LOL. Nicely put. I am tempted to steal your words and apply them to Ethan the gay/happy magical terrorist. LOL.

Too bad I never experienced Robin in real life. There are not many stars were I even feel the faintest desire to chat with them, but I like the wicked, hedonistic vibe he has given Ethan. Do you have a longer post somewhere about your encounter with Robin?

The more I write Ethan, the more he grows on me (and Robin too). :-)
