Subject: Ok Rachel, first let me say that Church prolly missed you horribly!! You Xander lover you;-)
In reply to: Rachel 's message, "But you're forgetting that Xander can do no good!" on 03:49:58 08/12/02 Mon

Second, I am NOT a Xander hater. Rather I see his good and his bad faults. I do not place him higher than any other character (nor lower). Xander has some atonements as well. Xander is not blameless. Likewise, Anya, Buffy, Spike. None of them are blameless. They spiraled down and out of control in S6. Hopefully S7 will have them picking themselves up, moving forward, stopping the petty feelings, showing more adult feelings.

If Xander cannot find it in his heart to forgive Anya her sleeping with Spike, then Xander needs to move on.

Likewise, if Anya can not forgive Xander for leaving her at the altar, then showing no signs of commitment after they spoke again, then she needs to move on, harboring no ill will.

Xander and Buffy need to re-connect, show support, begin to build the trust they lost when they were both scrambling through the trials and tribulations of S6.

Spike, newly souled, will need to show remorse ............... or not. But like I've said before, no more gray for him. I would like him truly redeemed, or truly evil. Just for kicks. Just to see JM do it either way. He's muddied the waters well enough, very successfully. Let's see him move in one direction or the other and stay there. Could be interesting. The great battle at the end could be between he and Xander.

As far as forgiving the other characters - no. I don't overlook what other characters have done either. I don't forgive Spike his SR actions. My "whys" will have to be answered. Also, he showed some remorse already, but will have to follow-up into S7 with this attitude if his actions are going to be forgiven in my mind. Buffy, she has a lot of loose ends to tie up.

One thing tho, it is hard to speculate on how a character is thinking or acting in S7 prior to seeing it. The spoilers only provide a sketch. Actual viewing fleshes it out. I know I am guilty of getting worked up before seeing a show. Then when I see it, it is nothing like what I've read about prior to viewing. Likewise, wildfeeds are not the same as viewing it.

Welcome back Rach!! *I saw Church weeping with joy upon your return!* :-) Keep up the good B/X fight!!

Just standing up for my comments here in this thread is all. I just don't think I see things the same way as sweet, handsome, sexy Church does .... and he has the power to DELETE me!!! So, I try to clarify as I go along and reread things and have time to sleep on things, etc., etc., so I just added on after your response.

And I say it again, I just know the White Knight is grinning from ear to ear now that you, the Pink Knight - defender of Xander, fighter for B/X - have returned from your journeys!! :-)

My comments weren't made at you, my dear! Nooooo, i'd just read some things on "another" board, and was unleashing my anger into a little post. hehe!
