Oh, I'm far from anti-Fuffy.  It's one of my favorite ships, always
has been.  I see it as the model for how to popularize an
unconventional ship.  

My only concern is that it's become the OTP of BtVS femmeslash, which
I think is rather limiting.  Now, while I fully understand the dislike
of Kennedy among fic writers (Never liked her, myself), I don't get
the current trend of pairing Willow with Spike, of all people, as if
there's no one more appropriate for her if one doesn't care for
Kennedy.  Y'know, how about some people that Willow would be more
likely to be attracted to?
