She could have justified her relationship with Wesley with the higher-ups by saying that she was trying to corrupt him, that he was just this close to going dark, that he'd be perfect for their team.

But she hadn't told, and now it wasn't about corrupting him anymore. But he wouldn't accept love from her, so she hid it under snark and sarcasm. He never knew that jealousy made her dress like that skinny little Texan nothing. Or that she left the glasses on because it pleased him.

"I love you, Wes," Lilah thought. But she never, ever said it.

Very nice, poor Liliah I really liked her.

*sigh* My ideal situation for the last season of Angel would have been for them to bring Lilah back for Wes and leave Fred for Spike. Alas, the writers at Mutant Enemy did not share my vision...or maybe Stephanie was busy and couldn't do it.

Aw. Great Lilah voice.

Thanks! I really think that Wes and Lilah were the Great Doomed Couple of the Jossverse. And I think he could have saved her if he'd had more time.
