just thinking about how despite AtS trying to portray it as comedic bickering amongst bros, Spike actually has decades worth of reasons to hate Angel, while Angel has remarkably few reasons to hate Spike. And it should maybe be concerning that from School Hard on, Angel adopts an absolute "don't see what this has to do with me" reaction to him?

#btvs #buffy the vampire slayer #spike btvs #ats #angel the series #spike spent 100 years with a front row seat to the worst damage Angel ever inflicted #spending every day trying to fix in dru what angel tried to destroy #just to later save the world and have angel belittle his sacrifice and mock him for thinking buffy cared about him at all #with angel knowing full well at that point just how much buffy does care #and the show is like 'can you BELIEVE Spike is trying to steal the prophecy Angel EARNED by being so heroic???'#'spike needs to learn from angel what real atonement and personal responsibility is'#anyway #props to Destiny #the only episode that got it right #and then immediately forgot its entire thesis statement
