Too sexy for words

"Teach me " - from "Listening to Fear", where they are looking at the stars?

[johnluvswillandtara]

I was watching that great trilogy of episodes from season four;NMR,TYF & Primeval & i recalled a comment from a synopsis of Primeval that said the scene where Tara & Willow visit Giles to collect Willow's computer is the reason that Joss loves Amber.And it hit me!!!Tara looks so MEGACUTE with her hair on top in a bun showing us the most perfect face on the planet & a smile that would melt an iceberg!And by Tara's standards a fairly close-fitting top;man,she is so gorgeous...sighs.I think i'll go and have another look at that episode.

Oh primeval Tara is so cute in that, with her little "look at my gf, she loves me so much" skip.

If I had to live my life again, I'd make the same mistakes, only sooner.

Willow playing with Miss Kitty Fantastico, I was about to faint...



Tara, mmmhhh she's got those "catch me if you can" looks: the "vixen" look...God bless Amber for that...

Another great thread you bumped, 3p!



I'm very flattered to be credited w/ your sig line, but remember, it's very old: I ain't its author.



Anyway, I wanted to re-iterate something Firefoot said, in a slightly different light (I hope I'm not repeating myself though):

Quote:

---

Another scene I found particulary effective was when W/T wake up together in "Seeing Red," and Tara tells Willow about Buffy and Spike-- and the way she sort of anticipates Willow's reaction. Kind of the inverse of above, where the "sweet moment" was slipped into a larger plot point; in SR, the plot point was slipped into the "tender moment."

---

I really loved how Tara anticipates Willow's reaction in asking her "Do you want to get up?" I think Tara knows *before asking*, that Willow doesn't. But I think she also senses that Willow still might be a little insecure in asking for that, ala "I know it's late, I know the world is up and about, I know that *we* have responsibilities . . . but I just want to stay in bed, alternating between making love and afterglow. Can we do that, Tara?"



Tara has just made this amazing act of forgiveness, and Willow can't ask for more---yet. But Tara---Goddess bless her!---intuits this, and by asking Willow if she wants to get up, essentially enables Willow to "ask w/o asking," to stay in bed. (Moreso, I think, than even asking "Do you want to stay in bed?" would have---because Willow still might have felt guilty in saying "Yes").



Tara's level of empathy here is just incredible: more than Willow deserves (and way more than those losers at ME . . . oops: Witches & Vixens Board, Only Happy Thoughts! ). The thing is, as wonderful as Tara is, Amber makes her *real*: you can believe that a Real Tara is out there, somewhere (well, at least *I* want to believe she is!)



GG Speaking of "Too Sexy for Words", Real Me is on today: that hug Willow gives Tara from behind . . . Out

Willow when she is trying to piss Buffy off in the ep "Flooded", the way she is thinking so hard and what she does with her hands is just great.

BB:Hello Xander...and Anya, how is your money?!

A:Fine!Thank you for asking!

[WillowMcclay6]

Hmm well actually in the long lost season five episode Shawdow they both look just...yummy.



Of course Willow in Wrecked



But I think Tara looked amazingly beautiful in Family. So shy and cute with her bright blue eyes....it's always the shy ones.

[3peanuts]

Yeah, you're making me remind of all those moments...



GG: what do you mean for "bump"? I am a small Italian girl, slang is always a prob for me...Did I do something wrong?



As for the sig: nobody called me that way before, so your honor...

3p: I mean you did a sexy/silly 70s dance, "The Bump", on the thread . . .



Just kidding! To "bump a thread" merely means to move a discussion thread that has dropped down (like off the first page of threads) up to the top, by means of a new post. There hadn't been a new post to this thread in almost 5 months, before you posted to it on June 5, which is why I said you "bumped" it.



I *love* it when someone bumps old threads. So often, they linger uncommented on for months, when their topics are still very compelling (and, w/ new Kittens joining all the time, many may have never seen them before). So, 3p, you did something just fine.



Ciao, bambina!



GG I'm honored to be the first to call you a "cunning linguist". But practice-practice-practice, and your "red-haired grrl" may call you that All.The.Time. Salud! Out

[3peanuts]

Sooo I must consider that smilie you used not a joke-thing but something pretty different, eh?



Am I the only one who found it sexy when they just stare at each other like two love-fools-silly girls during almost all the episodes?

"Cunning linguist" GG

Keynes was right

[primalfigure]

Willow/Alyson Hannigan "Hot moments" - Always sexy honestly, even in sweatpants with no make-up I'm sure of it. Come on everyone... of course "Dopplegangland", Leather, attitude, dark red lipstick. YEAH. What does that say about me? Hmmm.



Also, gorgeous in "Restless", "OMWF", etc.



Tara/Amber Benson "Hot moments" - Am I crazy or is she hella hot all the time! "Hush", or tarted up in "Restless" in the van sequence, anytime. Whoo-hoo.





Speaking of too hot for words. Alyson's got a new spread in FHM U.S. edition this month. "THE GIRLS OF BUFFY" Issue. Yummy. God those pictures are hot. Rowrrr. I do love redheads.

[LokiPromise]

Speaking of staring at each other, those eye lock moments shared during Tabula Rasa were wonderful.

BB:Hello Xander...and Anya, how is your money?!

A:Fine!Thank you for asking!

[LostWithoutTara]

My favourite moment is during 'Under Your Spell' when Willow, ahem, 'levitates' Tara off the bed. Sweet and touching, yet filled with sexy subtext. Just the way I like it.

[3peanuts]

Levitation....drool drool droooool

[umgaynow]

I know this is an old thread but I must add my two cents...or my two drools anyway



I'd have to say hottest Tara ever is in the black leather jacket at the end of Entropy...Tara in leather mmmmmmmmmm if only she'd done a vamp episode...and yes you knew it was coming...VampWillow...what can I say...I also found Anjelica Huston sexy in the Addams Family



But I think both of them looked the best ever in the multiply hideous Seeing Red...especially in nothing but those red sheets, both with the afterglow lighting and the FF hair...mmmmmmmmmm



And of course Tara Back in Restless...I may never recover!

[Dana5140]

Family- at the end when Tara looks at Willow just before she puts her head on Willow's shoulder.

[Ginner WTluv]

I can't help it... i have a total Xander brain (which isn't a good thing, kittens!)... but they both look beyond hot in the back of that ice cream truck in Restless... just



Amber's smile always makes Tara look super hot.... so def. the "Willowhand" scene in...darn it... i think it was Out Of My Mind, and that smile in Family when Cousin Beth asks Tara if she's "happy now?" But i always thought she looked really cute in the "different coloured pens" scene in Triangle and the "I am you know" bit in WAY



As for Willow... i always thought she looked really hot in Listening To Fear when she's bringin gthe care package to Buffy, Joyce and Dawn.. heck, she looks hot all through that ep. She's too cute for words at the beginning of Family when she's in bed in those pjs. And in The Yoko Factor when she's playing with Miss Kitty.



Okay, i think i'm done....

Helen - Oh please Nikki, be serious!

Nikki - I want to make love you to all night long... is that serious enough?

** Helen and Nikki in "Bad Girls" **
