Characters, for reals.
1. Comment on this post.
2. I will give you a letter.
3. Think of 5 fictional characters and post their names and your comments on these characters in your LJ.
'A' is hard. :/
1. Alice Lu from Exegisis: a grad student working on the EDGAR project for Standford University. Her disbelief of Edgar as a real thinking artificial intelligence is funny at first, but her complete and utter despair and Edgar's loss of innocence in the world makes my heart ache. Still. Even though I read this book in 9th grade.
2. Amanda 'Manda' from Megan McCafferty's Jessica Darling series: a total slutbag who gives the JD series the right amount of impropriety that makes me laugh at the absurdity of it all. Nicknamed Len-A-Hand-Amanda, Manda is s psuedo-feminist who thinks sleeping around equates to women having equal rights. Turns out to be a lesbian for a little while in the final novel, but goes back to her skank-filled ways in the end.
And....lamely, I cannot come up with five more characters with names that start with A. There aren't a lot of names that start with A in literature apparently.
