Took me forever to come up with some of these, and I'm sure as soon as I post it I'll think of a bunch of other important ones that I forgot, but here goes. It's the "what fictional characters would you have a one night stand/tortured affair/life partnership with" meme:
One night stands:
10) Thursday Next -- Jasper Fforde The Eyre Affair and others
9) Annwn -- the Mabinogion
8) Melinda Wolfe -- Pamela Dean Tam Lin
7) Sherlock Holmes -- Sir Arthur Conan Doyle
6) Katchoo -- Terry Moore Strangers in Paradise
5) Gojyo -- "Gensoumaden Saiyuki" (anime)
4) Death -- as portrayed by Terry Pratchett
3) Death -- as portrayed by Neil Gaiman
2) Lucien LaCroix -- "Forever Knight" (tv show)
1) *Captain* Jack Sparrow -- "Pirates of the Caribbean" (movie)
Tortured Affairs:
10) Jackeroo -- Cynthia Voigt Jackeroo
9) Alfred of St. Ruan's -- Judith Tarr The Hound and the Falcon
8) Robin Armin -- Pamela Dean Tam Lin
7) Morgaine (Morgan Le Fay) -- as portrayed by Marion Zimmer Bradley Mists of Avalon
6) Vanyel Ashkevron -- Mercedes Lackey The Last Herald-Mage trilogy
5) Kudou Youji -- "Weiss Kreuz" (anime)
4) Schuldig -- also "Weiss Kreuz" (ooh, Youji *and* Schuldig)
3) Jareth (the Goblin King) -- "The Labyrinth" (movie)
2) Severus Snape -- J. K. Rowling Harry Potter and the Sorceror's Stone and others
1) Spike -- "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" (tv show)
Life Partners:
10) Eilonwy -- Lloyd Alexander The Prydain Chronicles
9) Beatrice -- William Shakespeare Much Ado About Nothing
8) Mr. Rochester -- Charlotte Bronte Jane Eyre
7) Hermione Granger -- J. K. Rowling Harry Potter and the Sorceror's Stone and others
6) Aragorn -- J. R. R. Tolkein The Lord of the Rings
5) Bran Davies -- Susan Cooper The Dark is Rising series
4) Willow Rosenberg -- "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" (tv series)
3) Benton Fraser -- "Due South" (tv series)
2) Taliesin -- as portrayed by Charles DeLint Moonheart
1) Aerin -- Robin McKinley The Hero and the Crown
I find it interesting that my life partners and one night stands were both pretty equally split male/female, but my tortured affairs were all male but one.

lso, note that at least one of them is gay
Well, that could be one reason why it's tortured :)

Don't get the appeal of Angel at all myself, but my Spike has always been . . . flexible *g*
