10 Questions About Illyria

[willowsummers]

1. Do you like Illyria?
I found I did despite my not wanting to. She often speaks the truth and she showed many times that she was capable of compassion and even a kind of love. I can't help but like someone like that.

2. Do you think she's sexy?
Not really.

3. Did you wish she'd been with anyone in the show?(maybe she is in ATF I haven't read it)
I like when she tells Gunn that he's appealing to her eyes. They probably have the most in common. Spike could never stand her being able to kick the crap out of him. lol I love her relationship with Wesley but not in a romantic way. So it goes back to Gunn.

4. What is your favorite Illyria moment?
When she pretends to be Fred for Wesley in Not Fade Away. That was an amazingly good act of compassion on her part.

5. What is your least favorite Illyria moment?
In the beginning when she shows no respect for Fred.

6. What is your favorite episode featuring Illyria?
Time Bomb because I think it's really cool and I like the character development. She gets really fleshed out there.

7. What is your least favorite episode featuring Illyria?
A Hole In The World. She's so interesting I can't say I dislike any of the others even if I don't like what she's doing.

8. Why do you think Illyria wanted to pretend like she was Fred for Fred's parents?
I think she wanted to understand what it was like to be human and to be loved. Wesley's love for Fred had peaked her curiousity but he wouldn't let her do anything with it.

9. Do you think she's an admirable character?
I think her ideas and opinions have more wisdom and truth than we might want to admit. She is terribly arrogant but she is also very strong and adaptable.

10. How would you describe Illyria?
Arrogant definitely. lol Wise enough to know when to change. Strong. By the end, she becomes warm and compassionate though in the beginning she was anything but.

1. Do you like Illyria?
I really didn't want to like her either, couldn't help it. That's when I knew that Amy A. was a good actress to go from Fred to Illyria like she been doing it forever.

2. Do you think she's sexy?
I'm going to say no. She's too ancient.

3. Did you wish she'd been with anyone in the show?(maybe she is in ATF I haven't read it)
For me she another character that I'll be fine with not being with anybody like Lorne and Clem. Their just so demon like. I know demons need love too, but ugh.

I have alot of favorite, but I have to mention a shocking moment for me in Spike ATF (If you haven't read Spike after the fall pretty please don't read.)
