Secondhand bitchiness...
Yesterday ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
beer_good_foamy stole my head (or something like) and wrote a post about S8 Dawn that had me nodding along like one of the Churchill dogs, going 'Oh yes!' as I read.
So, I pimp.
Go read. Agree. Disagree. And be reminded why Dawn was a great character. :)
ETA: Having discussed Dawn at some length in beer_good_foamy's LJ, I don't think it's the giant-ness that's the problem per se. I don't mind waiting for reveals if I have to, I don't mind the Kenny thing etc. What I mind is that that is all she is - a giant problem. Her entire story in s8 so far centers around some guy she slept with... and that's actually a little demeaning, now I think about it.
And just because she's a giant shouldn't stop her helping out... she's still smart and knowledgeable and should be a great asset to Buffy, since clearly there is no resident Watcher at the castle. However there is no sign that she's doing anything apart from being huge - and that is a sad waste of a character.
PS. I *will* get round to answering comments. Sooner or later. Probably later.
