Spuffy and Shanshu

[clodia_risa]

So...I was thinking today about Angel, and discussing with my friend whether Spike or Angel is going to be "The One" for the Shanshu Prophecy. We watched "Destiny" and then watched a few episodes of S7 Buffy. And today - as I was brushing my teeth, oddly, it occured to me. What if Spike is the one that Shanshus? (Not complaining on the human part, I just hope that it's Spike/William and not just plain William.) No, what I'm worried about is the anti-Spuffy people. Weird, I know. BUT - if you remember, in S7 - Buffy refused to kill him. She insisted over and over that she could not do that, that he was important. What if - as some could claim - he was not important to HER but to TPTB - and thus she was influenced to think him important, or knew it in some sort of Slayer way - and thus she kept him alive so he could Shanshu? Wouldn't that be somewhat depressing. She treated Spike pretty well in the seventh season - what if it was not her, but TPTB?
Well - if he Shanshus, and she gets with him, then we know its not like that at all. But I kinda don't see that happening.
