Spike & Andrew Wells
William "the Bloody"/Spike ( James Marsters )
Spike is a vampire character whose role varies dramatically through the course of the series, ranging from a major villain to "love's bitch", to the sarcastic comic relief, to Buffy's romantic interest in a relationship that grows from miserable lust to a friendship, and eventually to a self-sacrificing hero, dying as a Champion at the Hellmouth. His path to redemption subsequently resumes in L.A. (in season five of Angel ), where his resurrected character continues to develop into a selfless hero. Spike is known for his Billy Idol platinum hair, his catch-phrase "bloody hell", and his black leather duster, which he acquired after killing a slayer for the second time. Nicky Woods was a vampire slayer in the 1970s who Spike killed and began wearing her jacket. Spike is also known for killing two different slayers.
Andrew Wells ( Tom Lenk )
Andrew is a nerd who becomes a foe of Buffy, mainly through peer pressure and bad judgement. He does try to redeem himself throughout season seven. There are several humorous hints that he was gay or at least questioning his sexuality. His character continues to grow and develop after the end of Buffy season seven, as evidenced by his guest appearances on Angel. During Season 8, he resides in Italy being the Watcher of many vampire slayers.
Spike & Andrew
Spike and Andrew become friends in Season Seven, with Spike either oblivious or indifferent to Andrew's apparent crush on him, and surprisingly tolerant of his annoying habits. In the episode " Entropy ", when the Trio's secret cameras reveal Spike getting physically intimate with Anya in The Magic Box , Andrew says that Spike is "so cool," then hurriedly adds, "The girl's hot, too." In " Storyteller ", he also envisions a bare-chested Spike in a romance novel type pose with Buffy. Andrew is devastated by Spike's death, and is delighted to find him alive and well in the Angel episode " Damage ", tearfully comparing his resurrection to that of Gandalf 's. In the same episode, Andrew comments that Spike's senses are "as well honed as his Viggo Mortensen pectorals."
