+WESLEY+
Buffy:
The council is not welcome here. I have no time for orders. If I need someone
to scream like a woman, I'll give you a call.
Wesley:
I'm not here for the council, just tell me how I can help.
Cordelia:
That is so classy. Isn't he just so classy?
Buffy:
It's a start.
Wesley:
So there is something I can do... besides scream like a woman.
Apparently
one English character wasn't enough for Joss Whedon, so therefore there
is Wesley. Originally Wesley was the man to make Giles look like a hippy
libertarian, with his stuck up mythical upper class English ways and general
adherence to the way things were Done. Wesley's rigidity, however, was
changed to a different sort of, er, rigidity, by Cordelia - and, sure enough,
Wesley managed to get himself excommunicated, or possibly just plain sacked,
from the Watcher's Council. So for a time he was a 'rogue demon hunter',
although only in the way that a hotdog seller could be called a 'slayer
of devil flesh'.
Jobless and with skills
not even the most arcane employment agency could use, Wes joined Angel
Investigations to help Cordy with making the coffee. And, of course, with
the slaying of demons - something Wesley began to get gradually better
at, to the point when he screamed like a woman only slightly more often
than Cordelia. And what of Wes' future? Despite working for a vampire and
socializing with demons, he still has a grounding in the Watcher's Council's
ethics and general sense of what is right, so of all people Wesley is the
most likely to be fighting the good fight when the apocalypse comes. Again.
