it's strange how similar spike and darla are: they both fulfil a similar narrative function for buffy and angel respectively in the forbidden-relationship sense (i could go on and on about this but that's for another day); angel and darla in "reprise" hit a lot of the same self-hating, nihilistic beats that buffy and spike hit in "smashed"; they each struggle with the gaining of a soul (darla when she becomes human, spike in s7); they both exist in a strange limbo between human and vampire, what with spike being in love with buffy and his "can't be a human; can't be a vampire" arc and darla and motherhood/her humanity; they're each sired by drusilla; each have to deal with a betrayal of sorts by angel becoming good (s1 btvs and s2 btvs); each have a new name (darla and "spike"/"william the bloody") foisted on them; darla practically is doing a spike imitation in how she interacts with drusilla (in an overtly romantic manner) in "reunion" and "redefinition"; and most importantly, both were brought back from the dead because, let's face it, they were two of the most compelling, ever-surprising characters of "buffy" and "angel".
and yet out of the fanged four, they are the two who interact least. i don't even know if we see either of them directly address a line to the other in the entirety of the buffyverse.
