Me personally, if I loved someone as deeply as Willow and Tara loved
each other, it would take me a long time, to be with someone
romantically again. Yes, they weren't together for a long time since
they broke up, but that didn't mean that love wasn't there, neither
moved on, did they? No, Tara and WIllow did get back together.
Kennedy is a great girl, I like the character, BUT I don't think she
is Willow worthy. And from what I've read, they go into the
relationship fairly quickly, which again is like a slap in the face
with the beginnings of the Willow and Tara relationship, because they
just told us, and we finally got to see the two kiss in the Body for
the first time. Hell we saw too much X/A kissage and B/R and so on,
but they didn't show ANY kissage or such until the sixteenth episode
of the season and that was it.
I am a major Buffy/Willow shipper supporter, I love Tara's character,
despite her being dead, and you know what, they wanted her to play
evil, and now I am glad that Amber didn't come back, because that
would just feel like it was degrading the character of Willow and
throwing salt into an already healing, but still open wound. We all
saw how Willow reacted when the first took Cassie's form and made
Willow believe that Tara was there, and we saw how much love she
still has for Willow and how much she still misses her.
I just really wanted them to hook Willow and Buffy up together,
becuase those two do have a good chemistry, but they hardly utilize
them any more and it sucks. When it started out Buffy sought out
Willow and now it looks like the writesr want Buffy to care less
about the girl she sought out, and wanted as a friend. Now its just
sucking between them.
That is what I feel. CN you did make some great points, and I am not
trying to belittle your opinion in any way.
