Just finished reading the latest Buffy comic and gotta agree with Nick Brendon - D/X is squick-ville. Isn't she still underage? While I like the fact that Joss messes around with us and doesn't cater to what we want, that just goes too far for me.
It it had been up to me, Buffy and Xander would've been together from the get go. Then we wouldn't have had the Angel, Riley and Spike goodness that followed, so listening to me would've been a really bad move. I think authors should have the freedom to take us on a journey that we're not always comfortable with but I have to draw the line with getting involved with someone you used to baby-sit. And I also don't see the emotional reality of the pairing either.

Maybe someone has some ideas on that?
