Wes wes wes

sockkpuppett was listing her favorite Angel moments the other day and I listed several favorite, mostly Wes, moments in comments:

She suggested I continue on with the Wes love and so I am! Please feel free to add your own Westacular memories.

All the times in Season 1 when Angel and Cordelia were making Wes feel welcome and needed, and like he truly belonged somewhere (Parting Gifts, Expecting, and She come immediately to mind). Hopeful, insecure Season 1 Wesley needs all the lovin' he can get!

Wesley slicing open his arm and feeding Angel in Deep Down--probably my all time favorite Wes/Angel moment.

Taking charge of the attack on the castle in Pylea and being every inch a champion and skilled commander.

Calling his father in Belonging to wish him a Happy Birthday and telling him about his promotion. What really gets me is when he says "I though you'd be...I thought you'd want to know." Poor Wes, he never does get his father's approval or earn his respect. *sniffle*

When Wesley goes all psycho-interrogator on the junkie girl in Release. The way he screams at Faith to shut up, the fierce questioning, and his comment "I avoided the main arteries, she'll live" which mirrors one of my other favorite Wes lines from Shells after he stabs Gunn "I avoided the major organs, he'll probably live." It's no secret that I am madly and rather frighteningly in love with Psycho!Wes. Guh.

Speaking of our scruffy psycho, I have to mention the sizzling Wes/Lilah interaction. In Ground State: "Shut up Lilah." "Make me" and you all know what happens next. Double Guh.

Asking Lilah to keep the glasses on when she's dressed up like Fred.

Phone sex!

"There's a signed dollar bill in your wallet I think proves different." Awwww. I loved his conversation with Figment!Lilah in Salvage.

Finding out that Fred and Gunn have split up and frankly telling Fred that he knows he's supposed to say he's sorry but that he really can't.

The entirety of Spin the Bottle. I'll pick one random favorite from that one: "Perhaps the whole point of this experiment is hair!"

Oh, another cool kick ass moment from Release: when Faith is working over the demon at the bar and another demon sneaks up behind and Wes cooly aims his gun and blows its face off. One of the hottest Wes+gun moments, and there are tons of those.

Crazy!Wes shuffling around in his office in Timebomb. Cree-py.

Wes shooting his father and his blank, disbelieving look afterward and the way he staggers off to be sick. Oh, my Wesley!

That Vision Thing--Wes: "I suppose it is one of the unwritten laws of being a dick." Gunn gives him a funny look. "Ah, a sleuth, a gumshoe, Sherlock." Gunn: "All I know is you use the word 'dick' again and we're gonna have a problem." Then a moment after Wes says the name of the next shop they're investigating, "Van Hoa Duong" and Gunn gives him another look. Hee!

Dad--"Seeing as you once nearly had sex on my desk I shouldn't be surprised that now there's a baby on it."

Waiting in the Wings--"Fred doesn't have six breasts! Right?" Wesley getting back into the fight even after his devastation at seeing Fred and Gunn kiss.

Loyalty--Wesley's face in the hallway after the explosion when he looks up at Angel and Connor and believes that the prophecy really is coming to pass.

I might amend this later. I have library things to do!

Oh Wes steering the boat in Deep Down and Justine picking up the wrench and going to hit Wes and him saying without turning "I'll take away your bucket..."

Hmmm

I love all of Wes' scenes in Deep Down. His post-coital talk with Lilah, going to Justine in her closet, threatening to take away her bucket, bringing Angel up and feeding him, taking him back to Fred and Gunn and then sadly going on his way. *sniff*
