Yeah, I agree. You know, what if they bring darla back, but it's not darla. What if there was a human woman who looks like darla, but has the memories of a modern 21st century woman, and when she comes across Angel, it is found out that she has a past life and that was Darla's life. Darla's death in Lullaby triggers the past-life memories so that this darla-look-alike has the memories, but the better coping skills of the original darla. Do I even make sense? I do believe what I just proposed is just sappy, so I'll just send that to fanfic.

Yes, he did. One would think that a Darla/Angel versus Holtz storyline would be very interesting, but I am not an ME writer. I keep thinking back to the Offspring flashback, where Darla physically attacks Holtz, this storyline is just as much hers as it is Angel's.

Even the demon said that Darla/Angel/Holtz are interconnected. So, again, it's great that we see Darla sacrificing herself and I'm not going to look that gift horse in the mouth, but it just feels weird and off that she would die after three eps. I'll have to view the ep in order to make a firm decision.

You can never have too many thoughts. I love hearing them and exchanging ideas.

>I guess so, but not for too long anyway. =)

Good. No need to torture yourself over a fictional character. I'm really happy we're going to chat tonight. By the way, I checked the Simply darla and Angel update page and I don't see a chat button.
