See, I think that's very interesting, because it's been my assumption that they want us to notice how boring and uninteresting he is, just as uber-normalcy is boring and uninteresting. Perhaps I am naive in thinking that the show is nearly 100% subversive in mode and intent. This is why I'm excited about the big scholarly Buffy con happening here in March ;)
Also, I never understood the Angel/Riley slash. It's existence just leaves me baffled.
In a word: ew.
I haven't read Buffy fic. I did start one loooooong one recommended by Jacyn, but it was Spike/Xander, and I just don't buy it.
