"And he went a bit mad before going on a soul search" Oh indeed he did. Again, makes him more interesting. Hmm, Vampire with some sort of conscience... hmmm, interesting.

And the "evil soulless thing" I used is in reference to the scene where Buffy beats him senseless in the alley, trying to assert that there is nothing good in him - when he was trying to altruistically protect her from her self. hmm Evil Vampires do whut now? yeah. :)
