Because I surly tried to make my translations as gay as possible when I had the opportunity but usually it was watered down in post production :(

    Neil Gaiman actually confirmed that Aziraphale and Crowley's story in the show was a romantic love story, but it can't really be labelled as "gay/bisexual/pansexual" since they technically don't have genders. Someone asked if they could interpret the characters as nonbinary in an asexual romantic relationship and he said yes. He's confirmed that they are in love.

    book fans have long recognized Aziraphale & Crowley as being "ineffable husbands": agender immortal life-partners. they don't have human genitalia nor libido but can mimic the former if they "make an effort" (quote). so. asexual by default. (but not necessarily sex-repulsed nor wholly celibate) on Crowley: while he is a demon, he was an angel first & he is never mentioned as being personally involved in physical seduction. furthermore, his demonic co-workers seem more disgusted by humans than anything else. aziraphale the angel on the other hand? HE HUNG OUT WITH OSCAR WILDE. if anyone in this partnership has sexual curiosity and experience, it's aziraphale.

Also, the part about Faith and Spike being like the only two people to not be okay with everyone kicking Buffy out of the house in the final season, and how Faith was very happy to lead, but once Buffy got back she didn't even hesitate to step back and let Buffy do her thing. Faith wouldn't have done something like that, put someone else first without second thought when she'd just gotten what she'd wanted that for so long, other than Buffy. Faith respects Buffy so much by the end of the series, and Buffy respects her back even though Faith was the "bad slayer". They both saw the good and the bad in each other, and damn that sexual tension! Also, I am such a fan of the Spike and Buffy ship, but yeah I would've loved to have seen at least a season dedicated to Faith and Buffy being romantically involved, even if they didn't become endgame.
