Hello! This is Kristen from BAPS/TabRas; hope you don't mind that I befriended you. (I think you may have sent me an email about archiving fics, but I couldn't find it the day after the fact and think it may have unfortunately come in the middle of a page's worth of spam.)
God, I so totally agree with all of this. Wanting a Spike/Buffy relationship would be like wanting him to sleep in a tub of holy water. It's hard for me to understand why anyone would want a character they care about to wind up with a person capable only of hurting others. I think it worked as a UC ship, as it even yet inspires some amazing writers. But I'd never, ever want to see it onscreen, in any form, again.
