How did you get into Avatar?: My friend debacul introduced me (AND SUBSEQUENTLY CHANGED MY LIFE :D)
What was your reaction to the series?: At first I thought it was really adorable, but that gradually changed into a sense of awe when I realized how freaking epic it can be?
Does Avatar rank very high on your fandom list?: It comes and goes, but for the most part it's up there with the big ones. I don't really spend as much time ranting/metaing about it, but whenever somebody wants to talk or spazz, I'm more than willing.
Have you see the series in its entirety?: Everything except "Appa's Lost Days" (I think that's what it's called?) Unfortunatley, I came into the fandom just after S2 ended, so it took me a loooong time to catch up...
Favorite characters: Iroh, Zhao, Ozai...and probably everyone else? Seriously, I love them all way too much. ♥ But those guys are my top three. I think Iroh is FREAKING ADORABLE in addition to being really hardcore, and Zhao is (was?) a really interesting guy...same with ( ... )

Friending you! I have to admit I'm being a total dorkwad nerd about thinking about the Fire nation's sociology, too, and the opportunity to know someone who is doing the same is just... well... I can't pass that up.

I'm totally thrilled to be able to see more of their socioeconomics and their propaganda and their crazy-ass, ethnocentric government?

You're speaking my language! I cannot friend fast enough!

You sound like you'd get along with my once-and-future-roommate, too. She's a sociologist whose music collection consists mainly of Broadway soundtracks.

I would just like to comment that your icon IS THE FRICKEN BOSS. Xerxes is hilarious. Hardcore hilarious.

He's SORT OF MY FAVORITE EVER. :D

(Really, that movie had me rofl-ing the entire time. It's sort of the most ridiculous thing I've ever seen...and yet, it's SO amazing.)

Lmfaoflol. I know. He's such a transvestite, too. It's hilfrickenlarrrious. I just saw the movie last night and DIEDDDD with love. It was so amazing. (And hilarious~! I love that they put comedy in it, also.) It's not -entirely- historically inaccurate. Spartans were incredibly badass with "Do or die" and fighting for their country and whatnot. Not to mention that they had a battle technique beyond that of any of their opposers. (i.e. that's how persia didn't proceed into the western world) But you know they glorified it a little for the theatre. :D

I did a project in a long time ago in eighth grade about Thermopylae (in a Persian-centric way), and I remember thinking Xerxes was pretty much the lamest guy ever.

Darius and Cyrus definitely win the "Best Persian Kings Ever" award...the movie made Xerxes MUCH more awesome than he was (well. I mean. If more awesome = wearing a gold speedo...I guess........) But yea. I hate to admit I still loveloveloved it.

I also love your icon, by the way. :D Are you just a X-2 fan, or did you play X as well? (X is like my favorite Final Fantasy in the history of the universe.)

Oooh, awesome...I don't mind X-2 (I've replayed it a ton...it's ridiculously fun sometimes) but I'm absolutely in love with X. :D

Do you mind if I add you?
