Speculation on spoilers!
I read Vonda's spoilers. (V Online is so cute!!) Behind the cut is a little scattered reaction, speculation, and general squeeing.
First of all, those were delightfully cryptic. I don't feel spoiled so much as intrigued...
Of course, as frustrated as I am that she didn't come right out and say "Yes, Spike and Angel are going to have sex!" I am titillated by the way she left the possibility open. Plus, I'm encouraged by the fact that all the shippy stuff was Spangely, as nearly since the beginning of the season I'd been convinced the writers were thinking Angel/Wes instead, and though I admit it's a pairing that makes a lot of sense (so much history, intensity, angst)....I wanna see Spike/Angel. *g*

In upcoming episodes we shall see Spike getting up close and personal with someone, the reveal of the season's true Big Bad, team Angel losing at least one member, character death, and betrayal.
I was wondering about the Big Bad. I was thinking maybe it was Drusilla, in fact, but this spoiler makes that unlikely (as she's already been revealed).
I wonder if Gunn is the team member we'll lose? He's sort of being set up for it, with running the shelter and arguing with Angel about what they should really be doing. On the other hand, Illyria's only ever had a tenuous connection with the rest; maybe she'll just show up on Wesley's doorstep one day and refuse to leave. (Not like he could really make her. I mean, seriously.)
And, character death? Eeek. We already lost Anne. Wasn't that character death enough for the season? Eeek. ::worries:: It can't be Angel—hello, main character. Probably not Spike, what with all the hints about other stuff happening to him. Plus they are both, technically, already dead. In fact the only ones who are alive to be killed (that I can think of offhand) are Gunn, Gwen, and Connor. But they're all too cool to kill!
As for the up close and personal Spike bit...I simply wait with bated breath.
Before the next two episodes are done, someone is going to earn Angel's wrath.
Heh. Like that's never happened before. ::gets popcorn::
Episode 6.10 is more important than you think.
"Girls' Night Out"?? Man, that is the most teasing hint ever.
But, but, it was the cute episode! The minor-character development episode! The nothing-happens episode!
Something about Illyria's development turns out to be really important? Something about Gwen? Illyria's new boyfriend turns into the Big Bad? I have no idea!
...
This is fun.
