I loved Buffy from day one. I suspect I was one of Plei's 3. But Plei, who was the other? There were three? And look, now there's more. Oh. Maybe Allyson, you know. Allyson loves Buffy. Allyson gets pissed off at Buffy, but she loves our girl.

Buffy 4: Grr. Arrgh.
This is where we talk about Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No spoilers though?if you post one by accident, an admin will delete it. This thread is NO LONGER NAFDA. Please don't discuss current Angel events here.
Yup. I love me my Buffy. She's my best girl.
She's my best girl.
Mine, too. Always.

Yup. Also, a couple of the fic people, so there were more than three from the get-go.
I don't see our girl through rose-tinting, but I love her, and am always a little shocked at the degree of Buffy-hate in fandom. (Esp. by a certain not to be named section.)

I don't either. I understand her. I started to read (with great interest, but something happened and I lost my spot) Hec's discussion the other day, about identifying with characters. I do identify with Buffy, but um, not in a transferry way (I hope). I get why she is who and what she is. I don't see her with rose-tinting either, but she's all right in my book, perhaps because I have a lot of warts on my own character.

The Spoldemorts? I know whom you mean. Funny thing is, some of my more (shall we say because at least one lurks) passionate B/A shipping Bronzer friends has been sort of down on Buffy because of Spoldermort. I say funny, because it seems both groups of shippers are not happy with her.
I started liking Buffy when it seems many people stopped.
Me too. I liked her best in Season 6, although I think my liking of her started when her mother died. Before that I didn't dislike her, she just wasn't a character I could identify with.
I'm not one of those people.
I never stopped liking Buffy. I just wanted to hug her and feed her comfort food until she was more herself.

Which is so weird (and I know I've specifically mentioned this to you before, Cin) because WHY THE HELL ARE YOU SHIPPING THEM WHEN YOU DON'T LIKE HER???
It seems strange to 'ship a pairing when you violently loathe one of the two parties in the 'ship.
I would be inclined to agree, Sean.
