Good insight into early WIllow.

Nerdniggle: It's C++

[deird1]

Thanks!

(Actually, C+ exists too...)

[nothorse]

i can't believe I'm doing this.

There's C, C++ and C#. No C+

Which is a terminal case of http://xkcd.com/386/, I know. :)

[deird1]

I stand corrected. (I could have sworn C+ was in there somewhere...)

[moscow_watcher]

Poor Willow! :(

*nods sympathetically*

Nice balance of Willow bolstering herself up even as she's longing for approval. That last line shows that shutting Cordelia out isn't quite working.

[deird1]

I'm glad you liked it!

[snickfic]

Aw. Poor Willow. Seriously, those hacking skills are way more important to the future of the world than anything Cordelia's got.

(Also: I think you want either C++ or C#, unless you're geekier than me [totally possible] and know of a language called C+ that I'm not aware of.)

ETA: Rats. I should read the other comments first.

They really are...

Glad you liked this!

[brutti_ma_buoni]

Yeah - life is not fair. Cordelia's stuff will turn out, ultimately, to matter a lot, and Willow will have to cope. Even more than she already does. Sigh.

[deird1]

Just as long as "coping" doesn't involve turning into a black-eyed baddie and trying to destroy the world, she should be okay...
Oh wait.
