Question: Is Ethan evil or just naughty?

[lucy_ash]

OK, I have a question for the group.  Is Ethan evil?  At first I thought he wasn't because, in Bandy Candy, he shudders when Mr. Trick kills one of the workers.  So I was thinking he wasn't big with the killing.  But then I thought back to the Halloween episode, where he turned everyone into their costumes.  Presumably some people died in that

When it's not Ethan in my head doing the answering, I'd have to say, getting people killed and setting up conditions for a baby sacrifice and tattooing Buffy and getting demon to attack her and transforming Giles and getting Buffy to attack him is all... well, you have to look hard to even find a grey area, and it's in the region of 'actually a bit stupid'.

A dose of enlightenment would a very different Ethan make.

...Yeah. This is true. (Of course, I keep having fic where one or more of the Scoobies points out that Ethan may possibly have learnt his villainy from Saturday morning cartoons, so.)

...'presumably' died? Why? I think I got that from some fanfiction where Xander was dressed as a vamp that Halloween and killed Larry.

Ethan in my head explains it has to do with long and complicated this and that and by the way it's hard to kill a Fyarl and look! Shiny thing! *runs away* *Laughs*

And oooh, I love your Ethan's motivation. That's a totally fascinating idea.

*cracks up* Yeah, more or less, that's how it goes in my head too.
