jedibuttercup: Notebook and Pen (wesley with sword)
Oh, Wesley. How do I count the ways? =)

To simplify-- a lot-- I like Wesley best of all the Angel characters, because of all of them he grew the most during his time on both B:tVS and Angel. Cordelia in season 2 and early 3 I liked a lot, but they regressed her at the end in service to a really lame plot, and as for Angel himself... well, his development was really muddled. But Wesley! He starts off so earnest and convinced of his own abilities, only to get totally knocked around by life and proven wrong. But afterward, instead of slinking off somewhere with his tail tucked between his legs, he picked himself up and tried to find another means of pursuing what he saw as his calling. And every time life knocked him off his feet after that-- at least once a year, and only sometimes his fault-- he did it again. Every time. Blown up, shot, betrayed, betrayer, one girlfriend leaving him because of his job and two others dying in pursuit of it... to the very end, he was a survivor, and he never stopped trying to do what was right (except for that one small period when he was pretty much insane).

And then, of course, on a more shallow level: the accent. The looks. The brains! I still haven't forgiven Joss for killing him off in the very last episode.
