Evil Alter Ego

I was watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer with She Who Puts Up With Me a few nights ago. It was one of the third season episodes where we get to see shy, bookish Willow as an evil dominatrix vampire in an alternate reality.

It was obvious that the actress was enjoying herself a great deal playing the dark twin to her usual character.

"Wouldn't you like to have an evil alter ego?" I asked She Who Puts Up With Me, who is one of the least-evil people I have ever met.

"Of course," she answered, then quickly added, "but just an alter ego."
