Spike slouched insolently and bonelessly in the chair in Angel's office, his leg flung over the arm of the square red seat.
When he started to talk, Angel tuned him out, knowing this would end up an endless debate like the one about cavemen and astronauts. Instead, he observed Spike, and found that he felt envious of the younger vampire’s carefree demeanor. If the others ever saw Angel slouch like that, they’d assume he was Angelus again. How come Spike could have a soul *and* get away with aggravating everyone, and… having fun?
Rulebreaker

That insolent brat *always* breaks the rules.
