ITA on your assessment of post-breakup Angel. I can sort of see him doing the whole Batman thing, carrying out his obligation to Buffy even once she's gone, but I really can't see him moving on from her, or being so with the well-adjustedness. Have you seen the Season 3 ep "Birthday"? That AU-version of Angel is pretty much my canon one.
I also resent "for your own good" breakups, because I feel like they deny the other partner agency. Hello, Angelcakes, you're vamp with a soul. I bet Buffy's guessed that you come with baggage, honey. Let her make that choice plz.
