Little Help
Oct. 8th, 2008 11:56 pmOkay, so I’m finally delving back into the ‘This is War’ ‘verse and I have a question for the f-list. If it came to a knock-down, drag-out, no powers held back fight between Azazel (the Yellow Eyed Demon) and Willow who would come out the victor?
I mean this a discussion. No bashing on Willow or Azazel. I want opinions on their abilities, not their actions.

I think, but this time, Willow will have come close to mastering her craft and power. There'd still be some darkness deep inside, because it never goes completely away once it's touched you.
I think Willow could beat Azazel, but he could tap into her darkness and it would be a struggle. She'd need an anchor, but not Buffy. And I think it would be ironic if the anchor turned out to be either brother. Each have their positives and negatives. If you think to bring in Dean's destiny in S4 and the fact that he ignored Sam's reluctance in exorcising Buffy, he would be the twisty choice.
An initial confrontation with Az would most likely lead to Willow getting her butt beat, just because he wouldn't be something she has encountered before.

Ooohhh, if I used the anchor plot twist: What about Bobby? Of all the people in that room he'd be the most grounded and I 'heart' Bobby so very much.

But, having had the evening and today to think on it, Willow would definitely need some big mojo and help to defeat Az. And I think Bobby is the one to do it.
*squeezes Bobby
BUT... on another hand... LOL Az is stronger than your average incoporeal demon. So Bobby with his awesomeness might not be enough. What if Sam's blood could be used against Az? *wiggles eyebrows...
