Willow grinned, and wiggled in her seat. "Okay, me first. And on that note . . . me!"
Xander smirked at his old friend. "Too easy. Pretty redheaded Jewish girl who does magic? The Scarlet Witch."He smiled in triumph, then countered, "Okay . . . since you started with yourself, how bout me?"
The witch cocked her head to one side. "Ummmm. No superpowers . . . and youre not quite detective enough to be Batman. And youre not a kid anymore, and you can handle yourself pretty well, so youre not Robin, or Rick from "The Incredible Hulk". . . I know, the grown-up Robin, whatshisname . . . Nightwing!"
He pursed his lips and considered it. "I guess the judges will accept that answer. I was kinda hoping for something edgier, like the Punisher."
That earned him a shake of the head. "You know how to use a gun, but you almost never use one. And youre not all revenge-y like he is. Okay, heres a tougher one: Angel!"
Xander looked up at the ceiling to consider it. "Hmmm. Leaving out the obvious comparisons to other vampires like Morbius or Baron Blood . . . onetime bad guy turned good . . . afraid to let himself get close to people, or bad stuff happens . . . " He snapped his fingers. "The sex is wrong, but Id say Rogue. She does the whole power-draining thing with a touch, but when she was bad she usually did it with a kiss, you know. And her hairs just as weird as Angels, but in a different way."
Willow giggled a little. "Hmmmm, interesting. I guess I can let that one slide."
He grinned back at her. "Okay, smartypants. How bout this one: Spike!"
She groaned. "Oooo, that ones gonna be tough. Ummm . . . bad guy whos semi-reformed, but not completely trustworthy . . . thick British accent . . . associates with demons but they cant stand him . . . ummm, John Constantine?"
Xander cocked his head to one side, then the other as he considered it. "Hmmm. Maybe. I didnt think youd pull that one off at all . . . "
Willow grimaced. "Well, if youre so smart, Ill challenge you to go for the gusto: Buffy!"
He smiled. "Actually, thinking about her is how I got the idea for this game in the first place. Dual identity, strong and fast but all too human . . . has a witty remark for every bad guy she takes down . . . lost some loved ones along the way . . . always got blamed for stuff that wasnt her fault . . . blames herself for stuff that isnt her fault . . . No contest. Lose the webslinging and the funny costume, and shes Spider-Man."
Willow raised her eyebrows. "You think about this stuff entirely too much."
Xander grinned. "What can I say? You gotta think about something when you spend the whole day carrying, hammering, and riveting. Havent figured out Tara, Anya, or Giles yet, but Im working on it."
With a laugh, Willow got to her feet. "You do that. Im gonna go ask Buffy if shes ever been bitten by a spider."

A/N: Like I said, silly and fluffy. Please dont be cruel.
