3. I didn't think I would ever like Angel/Cordelia, was vaguely squicked and confused by the idea of it, and will say endlessly and forever that they are Just Friends. Until S3. And then Joss sold me on their love hook, line, and sinker. I think their love for each other is far more mature than Angel's love for Buffy ever was, that they are a pair of friends who've made a life together, who have compatible personalities, and who love each other deeply. I think their mystical connection as Seer and Hero is beautiful (I think the same of Angel/Doyle, of course, and Giles/Buffy and various other pairings) and love the way it slowly bloomed into romance. I loved Offspring-Provider. Squeed my way through. Or, in other words, yes, shameless Angel/Cordy shipper too.

Yes, yes, yes, and yes. Except sorta about the Giles/Buffy, which just doesn't do so much for me, but...*nods*

4. I like Tara an awful lot and while she might not be the most compelling character, she's beautiful and lovely and shy and so much like me that, despite knowing I shouldn't, I take it personally when people dislike her. Tara is the character who's most real to me because she is me. And I love her. While I can understand why people think the Willow/Tara relationship was poorly handled, I'm also a die-hard Willow/Tara shipper and I believe in their love. It might not have sizzled, but it was beautiful.

*falls into a huge pit of squee*

3. I don't give a damn about Spike except I miss the snark.

In S7, or through the whole series?

8. I don't think I'm a particularly insensative or stupid person, but I didn't see Xander's treatment of Anya as abusive. I rather dread rewatching S6 for fear I'll see it and not love Xander anymore.

I don't either, and I've reviewed bits of it more recently. I think he's more on edge with her than normal, which isn't good for their relationship, but a far cry from any sort of abuse.

10. I don't care whether or not Spike and Buffy had sex in "Chosen." I wanted to see more of the D+D.

Amen. Wholeheartedly.

2. S6 is one of my favorite seasons and I see no big flaws except of course the magic=crack one.

In retrospect, I think the Spike soul arc was a bad idea and badly played, but not in retrospect, my only issue about it would be how badly it was integrated into the last three episodes.

7. I would have preferred a full season of Firefly to S7 of Buffy, but only if they ran with the Kaylee/Inara subtext.

Maybe. Think I'll know more after seeing Serenity. (Would've preferred S5 of Farscape, though.)

10. Cordelia and Angel aren't siblings. Cordelia and Wesley aren't siblings. Willow and Xander aren't siblings, and the word incest does not. Apply.

Very, very true. However, if you want to use the term to refer to Cordy/Connor, it's slightly less crackful, if not strictly true.

10. The SFX is S1 leave something to be desired.

*snort* *cough*understatement*cough*

12. They didn't die. They didn't survive. They're all still huddled in the alley, cold and wet and grieving Wesley, prepared to do the job they have to. World without end, in Joss's name, amen.

Have I mentioned recently that I worship you?
