The Pen is Mightier than the Sword

I'm just sitting here watching Buffy, when a question comes to my mind. It is deep and concerns Man's place in the Universe. That's when the cat walks in and throws me a finger. Now, a cat throwing me a finger, should give me cause for concern. This I freely admit. And the fact that the cat is blind, that should have thrown me for a loop. She can't see me, so how did she know where to point her paw? Yet, at that point in time, I was slightly more concerned that the string cheese I've been eating was bad. No, what gave me pause, was the fact that I don't own a cat. How did the cat get in? I didn't give it a key. Didn't invite it over. "Hey cat, wanna come in and throw me a finger?" Nope, that never happened. That's when I remembered - That's my room mates cat! I'm supposed to be feeding it! My room mate left 3 DAYS ago! No wonder the cat is P.O.ed! That solved, I went back to my question.

 

Only thing is, I forgot it.

 

So I came up with this one:

 

Buffy or Willow? It's a play on the old Ginger or Mary Ann question. Now every red blooded American boy (and some girls), know the answer is Mary Ann. She totally blew Ginger out of the water when it came to adolecent longing.

 

So I must ask: Buffy or Willow? Now many will say, "What about Cordellia or Anya? Or any of the other extremely good looking women to appear on 'Buffy'?" Some may even say, "Why not ask: Angel or Spike?" This would mostly be asked by militant feminists and others whose personal choices are their own and I am not one to judge. This all taken in stride, I still believe the question is:

 

Buffy or Willow?

 

I believe the answer should also be supported.

 

So I will answer and defend first. Once every body willing to participate answer's I may come up with another one. And once again, this was inspired by Salinye and her 'Life Questions' and, of course, one very hungry, blind and P.O.ed cat. ALSO, it is the character, not the actress, that the question is about.

 

My answer:

 

Willow.

Now Buffy is nice, good looking and has that whole tough girl that can kill you pretty darn quick - if need be, thing going for her.

 

But, Willow has something about her. Something dark and seductive. It shows up more in the later episodes, but is first shown (in my opinion) in the episode where Cordelia wishes that Buffy had never moved to town. This causes the Master to take over and both Willow and Zander are vampires. I call her Evil Willow. I can't explain it, but Evil Willow is hot. The way she says, "Bored now." is just so evil in its simplicity. Her total acceptance of the darkness within her is intoxicating.

 

Maybe the fact that I prefer Allyson Hannigan over Sarah Michelle Gellar prejudices my answer, but I still say that Willow is the one to chose - based on the fact that there is something dark and seductive beneath the innocence.

I've never seen an episode of Buffy, the only thing that comes to mind when you say Willow is that thing with the small people in it...I never saw that either but I've heard of it. :P

"You're mother was a lizard!"

"Don't look back hero... don't even turn around!"

 

I kinda liked the little people in Willow. :P

 

On the other hand, I don't know who Buffy or Willow are - must be TV people. About the only TV I watch is Cartoon Network with my youngest.

personally, i'd go for anya... her silliness factor T.K.O's Willow's Coy Cuteness factor hands down...

 

but given the choices, I'd prolly be more inclined towards willow than than buffy... 'cause well frankly I have a weakness for red heads... natural or not...

 

Well that was a nice time warp back to junior high... and remember kids: "all things in moderation...(me or aristotle: he prolly beat me too it, but I still claim it.)" and, "gone are the days of experimenting, but some remnants remain from medicating(big brother)"

I'd have to say Willow. I think witches are cooler than dragonslayers. And I really liked it when she dated that chick (I forgot her name). I think Alison Hannigan is a great actress, and her character is more down to earth. I know that whenever I watch the reruns on tv I am more interested in the sub plot of Willow that the main plot of Buffy.
