Willow and... Faith?!

Ethan Reigns said:
LGBT viewers latched onto Buffy the Vampire Slayer due to the pairing of Willow and Tara and the other gay characters like Larry Blaisdell and Andrew and made a game of permutations and combinations by putting various same-sex people into fanfic relationships. Some are hinted at like Angel and Spike ("except for that one time") and others may be imagined like Giles and Ethan. A lot of people put Spike and Xander together just because they shared the same basement.

Willow and Faith is just another combination in a long list.

Let's see, who haven't I seen paired yet, how about Gunn and Lorne? Yeah, somebody should write that one since Lorne is played as gay.

Also J August Richards is gay too. To be honest I actually don't mind Gunn and Lorne LOL. Two great characters who don't have much meaningful interaction, apart from the negative in s3. Wouldn't be that bad character development to have him fall for a demon after his prejudice. I'm not saying I would want it to happen in the show or anything, but as a fan pairing it's better than some of the others.

J is an awesome guy in real life too. Always been so cool and funny on instagram with his fans.
 
Faith with a woman, absolutely. But not Willow, they are radically not each other's type and barring one episode on Angel where they worked together okay Willow hates Faith. Buffy is the woman for Faith. I could maybe see her with Cordelia. Perhaps at a stretch Anya, Faith might appreciate her forthrightness. But Willow would not be a good match for Faith at all.

Kennedy and Willow never really made sense to me. I guess it makes sense that Willow would take what happiness she can get if the world might be about to end, but more than that? Honestly, I'd probably have made Willow bi and have Oz return. Would have made sense and been great nostalgia. If the politics of that offends anyone, they can go back and watch Season 4 and see it makes sense.

Two formerly evil people now making things right - perhaps no blossoming relationship, but I think there could've been a budding friendship between the two. They're a bit older, been through things, so they could probably understand one another better.

Not the only forced relationship of the season. They also had zero chemistry.

Interestingly, this is a basis for Willow/Anya pairings in S7.
