Ficht nicht mit Der Raketemensch!

It's true. Joss specifically mentions it in the Chosen commentary - he says after that he decided to go for the anti-Tara; as in Kennedy. which would have been fine had he been around to stop her being an annoying posh remake of S3 Faith without the grit or the sex.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

So what bits of Faith did he keep, other than the brown hair?

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

The Want take have attitude springs to my mind.

I read somewhere, in some interview, something to the effect of "I had this plan to bring Tara back and I pitched it to Amber and was very excited about it and it was going to be beautiful and heartwarming and she basically just said "No, Joss." So then I did this thing with Kennedy turning into Warren instead."

I saw somewhere recently, and I cannot remember where, that Joss said he planned on doing a story that would involve Buffy getting one absolute wish fulfilled, and at the end of the episode we'd see Buffy in a new pair of shoes and Buffy would be raving about how they're what she's always wanted her whole life, and Willow would go "you wasted your wish on shoes?" and Buffy would go, "no silly, turn around" and there would be Tara.

What is even happening?

I saw that too, Wolfram. It may have been from a convention report.

Up with the sun

Buffy would pick Tara over her mom? Or over a life with Angel? Or, if she's not going to use it on herself, over a long and happy life for Dawn? I'm not sure I believe Our Girl is such a martyr.

But it would have been sweet, in a sickly sort of way.

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights

And SURELY Buffy of all people would leave anyone she had reason to believe was in heaven well enough alone.....

I dunno -- without the flair it just seemed like Dawn-level petulance.

Yes I think it was. Maybe on AICN?

I'm wondering if someone linked it here or in Spoilers. It was really recent and I just don't go anywhere else (at least not regularly) these days. I never go to TWoP's forums.
