Drive-by post: Outing myself
Yes, indeed. I just outed myself over on TwOP as someone who actually likes Kennedy.
Truthfully, by the end of S7, I liked her more than Willow.
Granted, introducing Kennedy in S7 sucked because she, like Andrew, stole time away from the characters I really cared about (Buffy, Giles, Xander, and Willow).
Despite that, I still like the character. Unlike Andrew. Whom Ihate with the passion of a thousand fire-y nuns seriously dislike, mostly because ME kept shoving him down my throat and playing DEMAND LOVE when it came to Andrew.
First I'm a Xander fan. Now I'm a self-proclaimed Kennedy-liker.
Is it any wonder my corner of Buffy fandom is cold and lonely?
I fully expect to be ripped apart by Kittens over on TwOP.
Maybe I can distract them with catnip...

Fatel Illness?
(Anonymous) 2007-02-01 07:26 pm (UTC)(link)To be honest, I never understood the Kennedy hate. I've always thought that she just suffered from a bad case of not-Tara the same way that Reilly died from a bout of not-Angel.
Of course, what do I know? There are characters that I am indifferent to (Andrew and Tara) and characters that I feel are unnecessary (Robin and Sam), but none that I actively dislike (rage induced by Buffy's speech in 'Selfless' aside) I just have a hard time getting the bashing of imaginary people (shrug)
Re: Fatel Illness?
Exactly. I'm more known of defending the characters than actually bashing them.
