http://www.buzzfeed.com/keelyflaherty/which-nerdy-sidekick-are-youYou got: Willow Rosenberg
You are the most adorkable of them all. Youre as dependable and loyal as they come, and when your friends are in a tough spot, youre the first person they turn to. Youre the master of awkward one-liners, and smart as a whip. You avoid the spotlight at all costs and hate conflict, but brewing beneath all that sweet and hilarious charm is some seriously raw power. When provoked, you can be as fearsome an enemy, as you are a trustworthy protector.

Youre the clown of your friend group. Yes, you can easily rattle off most of the periodic table abbreviations, but youre more than just smart you know how to use your smarts for fun. Youre always down for an exciting new adventure, even if it runs the risk of serious injury. Youre the funny nerd everyone wants at the party, and you know exactly how to toe the line between intelligent and approachable. Youre meepin awesome.

(34,136 posts)Youre the coolest of tech gurus. Yes, youve usually got a screen in front of you, and you prefer the company of computers to people, but youre also quick-witted and charismatic. Youre a natural introvert who prefers to avoid the limelight, and you usually choose not to get involved in group politics. But youre also an incredibly intuitive person whos a step ahead of the crowd, and that makes you a strong ally and a dangerous enemy.

(3,928 posts)Youre the most reliable and trustworthy of friends. You have high emotional intelligence and your natural intuition makes you a wiz in social settings. You try to hide your bolder nature for proprietys sake, but youre also highly competitive, and you thrive in high-stress situations. You crave intellectual stimulation, and youre a tried and true adventurer.

(32,083 posts)Youre the quiet, brilliant member of your small, tight-knit group of friends. People come to you when they need sound advice, a good listener, and any information on spores, molds, and fungus. Youre a master of deadpan humor, and your best comebacks are usually what you mutter under your breath when no one is listening. Behind that calm demeanor, youre passionate and tenacious, and once you decide on a goal, you wont stop until you achieve it. Most importantly, you are a firm believer in never crossing the streams.

(115,692 posts)Figures, since I think Benedict Cumberbatch is totally hot and I picked him as my celebrity date.
Still Blue in PDX
(1,999 posts)I was torn between Gray's Anatomy and the spell book, and I suspect that's why Willow prevailed.

(56,912 posts)Youre the epitome of sidekick-turned-hero. Youre always a brave, trustworthy friend, and you never actively seek the spotlight youre more comfortable playing second fiddle. But when it comes to stopping injustice, you have no problem taking the lead. You hold yourself to a high moral code, and behind your adorable, dorky demeanor, youre a scrappy fighter whod sacrifice everything for your loved ones.

(17,671 posts)You are the most beloved of all the nerdy sidekicks. When it comes to solving a problem with concrete logic, youre an unrivaled genius. But you prefer to avoid the stickier emotional problems. While youd ideally like to hide behind cold and simple common sense, when youre pushed outside your boundaries, you truly thrive. Beneath all those theories about the importance of emotional stoicism, youre a deeply loyal and compassionate friend, who would sacrifice everything including your own life for the people you (gulp) love.

(21,925 posts)Buffy The Vampire Slayer and certainly not "adorkable" and not a mere nerdy sidekick probably qualifies me as a nerdy sidekick type. I always thought she was a little odd and funny but gorgeous, far sexier than Sarah Michelle Geller.
Anyway, I got Neville Longbottom and I didn't know who that was until I looked him up.
