Idk exactly what went down with Darla in this show (though I do have a vague idea), but I can say they clearly did her wrong.
#she should have been in it til the end and it's a fucking crime she wasn't#darla is a captivating character and i can see so much potentional for truly amazing storylines there#and much as i love shamelessly evil darla giving angel someone to grow alongside with would have done so much for his character#but i gather darla got the same treatment as literally every other female character on this show#sacrificed at the altar of manpain#and aside from darla deserving better#julie benz is truly a treasure of an actress#she deserved a long run and possibly a spin off#ats#darla#it's a bit early and i've changed my mind several times on angel pairings - but i think angel x darla is my ats otp for him#like my stance so far has largely landed on cookie dough!angel because it's hard to see him as functional in a relationship#but the goddamn potential of this wow#also how much cooler would this show have been if instead of...whatever kind of nonsense i hear they did to poor cordy#the storyline in between big bads/wolfram & hart nonsense focused on healing angel's past#growth for darla and dru then spike in s5#coming back together in a new way#it's a very poorly formed concept for me#but essentially the vibe is instead of angel continually fighting to kill his past he reconciles with it#allows it to connect with his new life and integrates the disjointed pieces of himself into one imperfect whole#jeez five minutes of screentime for darla and i'm crafting essays in my tags 😆#2x05 dear boy
