Willow and Fred

I like these two. Together maybe. But working side by side would be just as good. And I def do not think Fred was hitting on Willow. Lol, that was so funny tho.
 
Oh, I have to agree. Of course, Will is my fave Buffy character (and gorgeous with it) and Fred is my favourite Angel character (and gorgeous with it lol), but still, I was surprised by how much chemistry they had together. (In terms of the "I'm seeing someone" thing, that was TOTALLY from Will, though. I don't think Fred had a clue, but Willow was clearly attracted to her all the way through. Fair enough, too lol).

As to whether it should "really" have happened.. I don't know. I like Wes and Fred. Though if they'd carried on and Wes had still died (and stayed dead) then I would have said yes in a second. Fred was certainly more believable (and had more chemistry and more in common with) a love interest for Will than Kennedy ever was!
 
Maybe Willow and Illyria will meet up in the new Season 8 somehow. I seem to recall reading somewhere that the plan for Angel Season 6 was to have Willow, or maybe some other magic wielder split Illyria and Fred into two separate entities. That could be interesting. (Imagine Spike coming back to Buffy and bringing Illyria along. What would Buffy's reaction be?)
 
If it was Spike's birthday [sireday] Buffy could sing
Fr[e]eds a jolly good fellow
Fr[e]eds a jolly....................

Send Illyria to the video shop to get a film for them to watch, "But nothing blue though"
 
I read somewhere that, if Angel had lasted another year, there were plans to separate Illyria and Fred into two individuals, thus making it a double role for Amy. Now. in Buffy Season 8, Willow and Kennedy have separated, if only temporarily, and Angel Season 6 is about to start up...Kennedy's not an issue, Wes isn't an issue, Willow could pay a visit to LA, do the mojo, bring Fred back to Scotland with her, and leave Illyria there with Angel. Of course, Spike would go back with Willow too, once he finds out that Buffy and the Immortal aren't an issue and never were. Angel would probably be happy to see him go. Spike and Fred would make welcome additions to the teaching staff at Slayer Central, and we would have the added benefits of willow having someone to love who is worthy of her, and Buffy would most definitely NOT be "missing the sex" anymore. Everybody wins.

No, not everybody wins! I don't! Why do they have to be split up? I would miss my Angel/Spike interaction! Angel and Spike are awesome whenever you put them in a room together. I can't have them separated by an ocean!
willow and fred absolutely do have great chemistry together, that was very obvious in "orpheus". though willow definitely was the one doing the flirting throughout the episode. and poor clueless fred. "so what's her story?"-- you could totally tell willow was checking fred out the whole time. i would have been fully behind that relationship had it ever happened. i truly do wish they would of had more screen time and interactions together. both do come from a similar background with their bookworm, smartypants geekyness.

i think that whole pltline that was planned for angel season 6 would have been really cool. amy acker is definitely talented enough to have played a double role like that. and having aly hannigan crossover or be a recurring character for a while on the show would have been great. maybe they can still do that in the comic (though i doubt they will). but then fred can go over to the buffy comic and willow & fred can be a couple since she and kennedy are broken up for now. it seems highly unlikely, but hey, i can dream can't i? 🙂
 
Are you talking about the episode when Willow came to LA to help get Angel's soul back and met Fred? And then Willow was kind of flirtng with her? LOL! That was one of my favorite funniest parts in Angel! :lmao:

Joss should make a joke comic of "what could have been" using that idea of a couple.

Tagline:

"Willow and Fred: Lovers using their brains and spells to fight demons."
 
I've said this before, but it bears repeating: Willow loved Tara. Not girls, not women, just Tara, a warm, gentle, loving human being. Her sex was not a factor in the equation. Kennedy was a mistake, which seems to have been corrected in Season 8.

If Fred and Willow should be attracted to each other, I believe it would be under the same circumstances as Willow and Tara, and would be just as regardless of gender. It would be two people who share a lot in common loving each other and sharing their lives.

Period.
 
I kind of thought Willow was flirting with everyone in that episode... and that everyone was flirting with her. I even sort of felt like we were flirting with each other, and I was several years removed and sitting in my living room! Willow had some crazy chemistry going on with Ats: cast, set, and concept included.

Everything was so dark and Freudian at that point in the AtS story that I think Willow, having been down that tunnel herself and come out the other side, was just what that show needed at that point in time. The AtS characters were too hopeless and down-in-the-dumps. Willow provided hope.

All of that said, I would not have minded a Willow/Fred pairing. Oh, who am I kidding? I would have been all aboard the Willow/Fred train. They're both so pretty, sweet, and smart. It would have been cuteness squared. Go, go smart girl power. A Willow/Fred pairing would have rivaled Fred and Gunn or even Willow and Tara on the cuteness meter.

Whedon broke up Willow and Kennedy in S8? F***ing coward. For once Willow had a relationship with someone who possessed a different type of personality that balanced out hers, and he gives in to the moronic fan who are still living in the past over Willow's dull ass relationship with Tara by ending it.

It would have been too f***ing boring. Willow and Fred were too similar. That is why I found Willow's relationship with Tara DULL and Fred's relationship with Wesley a YAWN FEST.

I don't know. I'd like to think Joss would have come up with ways to make it interesting. I never found Tara and Willow dull. I mean, first there was the whole dealing-with-the-gayness thing, then there was Oz, then there was allowing Tara to be accepted by the group, and then there was Glory, and then they butted heads on the magic thing. I found all of that really interesting. I was never bored. So even though they were sweet together and really rather stable (compared to, say, any of Buffy's relationships), I was always entertained by whatever they had going on.

That being the case, I don't think that the fact that Fred and Willow are both intelligent, likable, generally sweet characters (except when it comes to revenge killing) would necessarily mean that Joss wouldn't come up for stories for them that would keep me interested.

To each his own, though. I can see how people might find the pairing boring. There is something to be said for opposite or angsty couples, too.
 
I always thought they would have been cute together. 🙂

And yes I have read the fanfiction lol, including a rather interesting Cowgirl themed one we won't go into.

Tara had to be killed off. If she was around in Season 7 she wouldnt have approved of Willow doing the slayer spell in chosen.
 
I'm sorry, but if any couple were boring, it was Willow and Kennedy. Nothing in common, and zero chemistry. It was almost embarassing.

I agree. I never really "felt" them, either.
