My fears
That this is the end of the Buffyverse. We never get to see JM play Spike again and see how his journey REALLY ends.
I'll never find another universe like this ever again that I can completely lose myself in.
I'll never find a character that touches me as much as Spike has over the years. One who makes me feel the way that Spike does.
Spike dies....again! My heart couldn't take it.
Joss kills everyone, just so we can feel what he's feeling. Huh...Joss? Feeling it already.
We never get the answers to the many questions that have been asked over the years, like: Who is going to Shanshu?
The S'cubie's won't stay around once it's all over.
My hopes
We get a fitting end to the series.
We get some sort of spin-off - especially a Spike one.
Spike and Angel realise that they really are family to each other.
Fred lives.
Wesley and Fred live happily ever after.
Spike finds happiness, whether that be with Buffy or not. As long as he's happy.
The same goes for Angel, too. That he can finally stop brooding and enjoy life.
That the S'cubie's carry on forever.
So we can all live in Erinland, where the sun always shines.
