yeah - that's a start --
and she's said it to just about every one of the Scoobies - there's always some reason why w/ Buffy it's 'different' -- she even told Spike that the bit w/ Angel was different ---
and her claim that just b/c Spike doesn't have a soul, that he can't know love or isn't able to love -- total garbage -- where is it written that ya have to have one to love?? i don't recall seeing that anywhere - you don't love w/ your soul - you love w/ your brain -- and yeah - so Spike's is technically an 'undead' brain - he can talk and walk and such - so it still works -----
(yeah yeah - i'm in argumentative mode again - mix that w/ snarky - and i'm dangerous
)
