Writer's Block: What A Character
Marco. Marco from Animorphs (and a bit of Rachel too!)
I would just love to say Hisao or Maya (from The Harsh Cry of the Heron) but I don't think that they exactly changed me. In fact, the character that changed me was way back when I was 7. The character was Marco from Animorphs. He is the character that taught me sarcasm. And Rachel (from the same series) kinda taught me that too. My early stages of learning humour came from that book series. It also kinda made me realise we're not alone in the universe and the high possibility of aliens being around. But yeah, me and my old friend would laugh at things Marco (and Rachel, when she countered him) said and would quote it.
I also learnt to use the word butt, but that was from Tobias since the main sentance I remember from his "This is Hawktail Express and we're hauling butt outta here!" or soemthing along those lines.
I miss Animorphs... the TV version of it though was pretty bad.....
Actually, when I finished reading it (not that I'd read every book because of how scattered they were in the shops, but I read most of them) and cried at the ending, I kinda lost that sarcasm. I stopped quoting what Marco said, and Rachel's responses and now I've forgotten most of what they said. It kinda sux =,(
EDIT: And now that I think about it, a couple of years ago I started reading W.I.T.C.H. and kinda done the same thing with Marco and Rachel, except with Irma and Hay Lin. Not sure if I still do that though.
