I really believe that doesn't matter when it comes to the fic; it's just a case of deciding if the characters fit - which these two do - and then creating an opportunity that's plausible.
Absolutely. There are so many opportunities for these two to interact, from pre-canon to post-canon, and they'd be such varied stories. So many possibilities.
But damn it, I wanted to see Wes and Spike going on an errand together or Spike dragging Wesley off to a bar to watch soccer. Something where they could snark and taunt and grow comfortable enough that they could let down their walls a bit.
Hell, I would've been happy if they were discussing multivariate statistics, just to watch AD and JM act together. ;)
Now I can read the other essays, like yours, which I've been saving as a treat!
