Day 7 - A pairing that disappointed you

Going back to Buffy for this...



Buffy Summers/Riley Finn

I thought this pairing had some potential. A guy (not a vampire) who knew about the nightlife, and fought it. Someone who could be with Buffy under both sun and moon; someone who could support her as the Slayer while also loving her as the woman. She didn't have to hide from him. It had a chance.

Unfortunately the writers decided to send things in the wrong direction. I enjoyed the "mad scientist" thing with the Initiative, and him going AWOL was great, but after that they had him go into this spiral of jealously and depression that I hated. I don't think they gave the 'ship the chance to grow in a healthy direction. They really seemed to want to stick with the darker, bad-for-Slayer pairings with Angel and Spike. (Of course, I also think they screwed up a potentially great character with Riley, so...)

Well, people seemed to like them! So, without further ado, I give you the Magnificent Seven Pokemon cards!
