Buffy the Vampire Slayer is the brain child of Mr Joss Wedon. This
blog is in no way associated with the man, but my own musings. All
footage, quotes and stills belong to him.
Willow, Willow, Willow...what can we say about this super cute turn psychopathic witch? The girl who didn't celebrate Christmas and fell in love with her best friend, a computer, a werewolf and a witch. Willow changed, yet stayed the same. Although she went from geeky girl to magic dependent in the blink of an eye, mostly, she was still dependable Willow. Even as Black Willow, she was being evil out of love. Her love of course, soon turned to hate, but I always believe she was always there. Is it surprising that she was brought back to "earth" by Xander, her first love. The boy who had no super powers, just by telling her, he loved her over and over again. Well done Xander. But also well done Willow, as she was a very complex soul even at this point. She was black as black - stinky cheese and black veins, but under it all, she was still brought back by love. She had a very dynamic relationship with all her beaus. Oz, who asked "Who is that girl?" more than once in season 2. Tara who ended so tragically, after all they had been through. (Part of me will never fully forgive Wedon for that death) Even Kennedy...although I believe this was a rebound. She was too annoying to be anything more for someone as wonderful as Willow. Yet, that is only my opinion. Xander of course, the first love to hurt her so terribly with Cordelia... "I hate Cordelia club, which you are treasurer." How incredibly twisted this characterization is.
