HATE. I hate everything about them except for what they set up with Wes and Illyria, which is actually interesting. But let me back up.
I hate that Wes develops this ~obsession~ with her without even knowing her (I love how you've latched on to that line about loving her before he even knew her. UM YES. BEST TEXTUAL LINE ABOUT THE TWO OF THEM). I hate the way the Love Triangle of Doom ruins his relationship with Gunn, which I really loved. I am so beyond grossed out by the "leave them on" scene (EXCELLENT scene, but DISGUSTING as hell). I hate that when they finally get together we're supposed to believe it? WHY DOES SHE COME AROUND? We don't see it from her perspective at all except for that one scene where she's watching him do magic. I still don't understand it. And then they're supposed to be all cute and adorable? NO. He treats her like a child or a doll or something, not like a person. I also hate the way she seems to lose all personality when she's around him. There were some moments earlier when she had one (what's the one where she's on her own, the only one who can see through Jasmine?), but towards the end she's just a cipher. She exists for the men to fawn over and protect. HATE.
However. His interactions with Illyria and "The Girl in Question" (and also a certain scene or two in the finale, which I will not spoil you about) are FASCINATING. Messed up as anything, but fascinating. I eagerly await your reactions to the finale, actually. Mostly for this reason.
