soft and smiley and happy spike is so important to me, you wouldn’t believe it tbh… we didn’t get enough of it because (tw) j0ss wh3d0n had to make all of his characters feel absolutely miserable 24/7.
protective big brother (reminder: still soulless) spike is so important to me because y’all can hate him all you want, but you can never tell me that this man didn’t truly care for and love dawn (and joyce for that matter). he didn’t have to stay and take care of her when buffy flatlined but he did. he didn’t know that the scoobies (willow specifically) were trying to bring her back and he still stayed with her family and friends to keep his promise.
