But then I also want to see the Scoobies as a mature fighting team without so much self-doubt and self loathing.
Maybe a five year out storyline...
Like any of that's enough to fight the Dark Master. Bator.
Xander ,'Lessons'
Buffy and Angel 1: BUFFYNANGLE4EVA!!!!!1!
Is it better the second time around? Or the third? Or tenth? This is the place to come when you have a burning desire to talk about an old episode that was just re-run.

All is well that ends in pizza.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I'm kind of loving that this discussion exists.
Carry on.

Hey. New board.
Interesting discussion, this.
Let's see.
Importance FOR Willow: Buffy, Tara, Xander, Oz
Importance TO Willow: Tara, Xander, Oz, Buffy
Discussion:
Without Buffy, Willow is a nerd who goes to Harvard and/or is dead. She never finds out that her life is and should be fighting and/or being evil. She also never learns that her entire life is defined by and/or statements. (okay, maybe not.) But though she appreciates what Buffy brings to her life, Buffy herself is not all that important to Willow, comparatively. Any Slayer who treated her nicely could've done the same thing.
I might add discussion about my other rankings later. But right now, really need to shower.

'And on that tragic day, an era came to its inevitable end.'
That's all there is.

Well, not exactly the same thing
What Willow learns from Buffy: Carpe diem, Who is the boss of me, It's a good fight, you are supposed to use your powers for good (OK a little shaky on the last one)
What Willow would learn from Kendra: staying at home and doing my homework... and flossing... and dying a virgin.
What Willow would learn fron Faith: (did anyone else just go to a scary visual place?)

Hey. New board.
My visual place wasn't scary at all. Rather nice, actually.

Very nice, actually. I'm kinda digging it.

Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.
You were all wondering about five years after?
Buffy moved on from the Immortal because, let's face it, sex can only go so far. She hooked up with the Chairlady of W&H Milan for a while, but, let's face it, sex can only go so far.
Buffy eventually just got tired and retired to Martha's Vineyard. There was a pot-bellied red-headed dude there who was kind of interesting, but she said "Fuck it, I'm gonna swim."

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear
If Faith had been her Slayer, Willow would have gotten her dyke on a few years earlier.
Someone needs to write that, actually.
Because, yeah, happy visual place.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Because, yeah, happy visual place.
Phew. I am so there with you.
Hey, you must be between feedings. You're up and your brain is working.

I'm up, feeling extreme guilt because the munchkin is VERY cranky, but I can't give her Mommy cuddles, on account of having Chemical Head (I have One and Only Color Fix on my head right now), and based on how unsoothable she is for Daddy at the moment, I think she wants Mommy cuddles. I doubt she's hungry, as she's been eating off and on since 7:30. I think she's just tired, a little gassy, and missing me.
Argh.
