[QUOTE="DM_Matt, post: 717989, member: 1213"] In rejecting the power, Buffy showed herself to be a total hypocrite. On this show, nature is the supreme good. This show glorifies balance and N-aligned beings. Good and evil are both disruptions, almost equally bad, and thus are intertwined. Every Scooby has a resevior of power, and in every case that power is dark. Buffy and Spike tap the demons within. Willow taps her innate primal magic which pushes her towards evil becuase she approaches it in a human, scientific way without fully embracing wicca, which seems to moderate it by subordinating oneself to the balance. Giles the librarian/Watcher is a wuss, but he derives power form tapping into Ripper, his metaphorical demon which provides him with power and necessary ruthlessness. She yells at the others for holding back becuase they are afraid to exploit their dark power sources without succombing to them. Yet when offered more dark power, she refuses, becuase she is afraid to do exactly what she is demanding of her friends. [/QUOTE]
