Some Xander bashing and major Riley and Angel bashing take place in this episode.
I hope you don't mind but I'm gonna put a lot of my personal venting into this chapter.
I'm gonna address Angel siring Lawson as well as stuff dealing with Seasons 6 and 7 and the comics in future chapters. Rest assured, I will take care of things. For now, I'm basically gonna do a past/present/future thing with Buffy and her love life.
Dedicated to Jodie aka The_Bronze. Thanks for the feedback.

Spike and Buffy's relationship is split into two parts, maybe three. This first one tackles Spike's past and how the show and the fandom interpret the soul.

The intervention won't go the way you expect. But I didn't want this thing to be all dialogue. Things are gonna escalate and change in ways that will surprise you. I just hope things don't escalate too quickly.
