True. I think you're just a much nicer person than me. lol.
But I do get what you mean about the whole throwing Faith under a bus thing. I love a good angsty/dark fic where nobody really wins when it comes to this sort of thing, rather than an actual fluffy romance/drama thing, as someone always ends up with the short end of the stick in order to ensure a happy ending for the other characters. If nobody has a happy ending, I think it really works - but that's never really a super popular option in fic (which I think is a shame. It's hard to find good darkfic that isn't just written for shock value or just used as an excuse to write awful non-con. Urgh. But that's a rant for another time...)
Spike flies around in a steam-punk spaceship piloted by bugs.
Urgh.
That is all I have to say about that whole storyline (and probably the kindest thing I could say, too).
