I think, though, that the retcon for "Who sired Spike?" is crucial--Angel(us) made Spike not a vampire but a monster (...and Buffy treats him like a man....) Both Angel and Spike behaved far, far worse than they needed to be to play out their hands as vampires. Harmony, for example, is an Earthy Mostly Harmless for most of her post-Sunnydale career; James and Elizabeth are pretty much just trying to get by, and Holden is at least as good a therapist as the one in the "Normal Again" loony-bin.
The icon, BTW is Blakes7: Blake/Avon: slash Spuffy (and vice versa)!
