Never Fade Away
Good-bye for now. Thanks for reading.

Epilogue: Jade- Tribute
The last episode of Angel, titled Not Fade Away, was as wonderful as every previous episode of the show and it's predecessor, Buffy the Vampire Slayer. It was artistically put together and had enough to keep us Fan Fiction Writers, Dabblers, and Poets (etc.) very happy. It was a shame to see the show end, but the ending did it justice.
Each character was as they were, somehow, in the beginning. Angel was still a vampire (blood-sucking scene), Connor was still Angel's son, Lindsey was still a part of 'the problem', Spike was still a poet (I loved that scene by the way- beautifully done!), Lorne was a performer, Gunn was a fighter, Illyria was still Fred, and Wesley was still a Watcher who used magic rather than firearms.
As much as they changed, they remained the same.
This story was for that final episode, though I scarcely did it much good and yet had to somehow recount it in my warped version. It was no where near as good as Joss's work, which kept us all hanging on through the continuing tale of vampires, slayers, and generally just humans, though they be the most incredible mix of the philosophical, endearing, unpredictable, gruesome, and funny. I bow down to you, Joss.
This is to the realm of Angel.
May it never fade away.
