30 Days of Buffy - Day Seventeen

Can I just be cliched as hell and say thank GOD it's Friday??

*huffs*

That feels good.



This will be very simple. I don’t relate to any of the characters overly much. I admire Cordelia as someone whom I wished I was more like, as far as her self confidence and assurance goes but I didn’t actually relate to her lonely while popular. I never really related to Buffy’s struggles against not wanting to be the slayer but that’s only because, as a little girl, I read DC comics, where the superhero duty was sacred and heroes untroubled by their lot. Didn’t relate to Xander and Willow at all.

Wow. How is it I can love a show so much and not feel that I can relate to any of the characters?

Really weird.

I think you're Giles. Intelligent, booky, parent figure. Bossy. :) Of course, that penis thing might be a problem.

There are mail order solutions for the penis problem, lol.

I didn't think about the 'grown up' characters. Which is probably why I drew such a blank when I was typing this last night.

You think I'm Giles? *is flattered*

If I think about the 'grown ups' then I'd have gone with Joyce. She works, she's trying to raise her daughter and she's totally at a loss most of the time. :D

Joyce would work but she's too nice. You have more bite and snark. Plus, Joyce was mostly clueless and you're really not. ;p
