Willow! She was so cute! And she was a lady geek with an unrequited crush! What's not to love?
- The character who is my ‘baby’:
Buffy! Also probably the only character on any show I'd consider calling that. I just have all this involuntary empathy for her. She's my favorite ever.
- The character who I do not understand:
Huh. I can't think of any offhand. I mean, part of what I <3 about BtVS is that the characters all make sense to me. I can get what makes them tick.
- The character that I think the show ruined:
Um, none. The closest is Giles. Him leaving Buffy during her S6 depression upsets me, and his reason doesn't really work. I understand ASH was leaving the show, but I think they could have handled it in a way that didn't make Giles quite so cold/indifferent/oblivious to what he was doing to Buffy.
- The most attractive male and female character:
Ugh, Hollywood types are not often Fray's types. I think Xander's not bad to look at. I like his hair in Season 5. Tara is fucking gorgeous, don't let anyone tell you different.
- The character death that was the worst for me:
On first watch, Tara's. On repeated watch: uh, maybe still Tara's, in the sense that she never gets the respect from the show that she deserved. Plus that opening credits thing never doesn't piss me off.
- The character that is the most like me:
Probably Xander. I mean I don't have his personality, but I kinda really identify with how he isn't the one in the spotlight. I can take charge and I have plenty of leadership skills, but I also kind of like to hang out at home and have a normal slow paced life, and Xander feels like the only core Scooby who really held onto that.
- The character I think the writer(s) love:
Do I even need to dignify that with a guess. It's so obvious it's Spike.
- The character that I just want to be happy:
All of them? But in the wake of S7 -- Buffy. And Dawn. And Faith, damnit! I <3 her S7 stuff, BTW.
- My four favorite characters, past or present:
Wait, does past mean they were my favorite in the past but now they aren't? I guess it must.
OK: Buffy, always. Willow, because she makes me smile in early seasons and she's so well written and gets an incredible character arc. Like, those two have my favorite series-long character arcs of anyone anywhere.
Spike, because he's funny and his redemption stuff was so many leagues more interesting than Angel's. And I really like his S7 relationship with Buffy. However, fandom has kinda saturated me when it comes to Spike, so I guess that's more a past favorite than present.
I'm not sure I can pick a fourth. I kinda love everyone after that more or less equally. Maybe Giles?
- My four least favorite characters, past or present:
Oh, this will never work. There are no least favorite characters on Buffy. Not even the potentials. Not even Andrew. I'd have to go with random minor characters and nobody needs that.
