I'd venture a guess that those fanfics you're reading more often than not treat Spike as the most important character. Then you read something "official" or at least Joss-executive-produced, and get disappointed when Spike isn't treated as the most important character.
You're right. Where are times when I regret that I haven't stopped following canon after Chosen. But then Joss and his writers create something wonderful like After the Fall, and I forgive myself for my masochism.
More like a way to point out that you're following a grand tradition of fans wanting more long after Joss thought he already gave it to you. *grins* (Wait...that sounded dirty.)
Don't I know it! :) I try to be philosophical. Joss gave us a great sandbox and even encourages us to play there. Could I ask more?
