It has been four years since I've joined the Spander club :D
The reason I watched Buffy was Spander. I remember I wasn't into the show coz I wasn't a fan of supernatural shows, but I remember I was attracted to Xander's character, his looks and wit. It was until my sister and cousin started reading Spander that I came curious, first fic I read was "The Road to Freedom." then "Sands of Time." (Which made me adore this pairing and the father/son relationship between Xander/Giles (which the show sadly lacked.) and my third fic was "The Stranger Things Series." (this one made me come an official Spander fan))
I really feel sad about how Xander was treated on the show. The character has so much potanial, you can see it clearly in the earlier seasons (my fave Xander will always be High School Xander, when the writers cared enough about him.) I believe many of the Xander fans nowadays fell for him after reading fanfiction.
