Day 15 - Favorite female character

I don't think anyone will be surprised by my answer to this one.

My favourite female character of all time is:

Buffy Summers


Where there is Spike, there will always be Buffy for me.

I couldn't love the show quite as completely as I do if I didn't love Buffy. My love for her hasn't quite reached the obsessive heights of love that I have for Spike, but it's pretty damn close.

She will always be my hero.

In fact, the Buffy of the later seasons is the one I relate to the most. The Buffy who had the weight of the world on her shoulders, who had been broken by life...but somehow always managed to dust herself down and keep on going. The Buffy who had to keep strong for those around her, even when it was almost too much to bear.

She was so battle worn and weary by the end of Season 7 that my heart broke for her.

So there could only ever be one answer to this question:

My hero, Buffy.
