1. Do you love/hate/don’t feel strongly about this character?
I don't really feel strongly about Slughorn, to be honest...
2. What’s your favorite trait of this character?
The fact that he's a Slytherin who's clearly self-absorbed and cunning, and yet not evil.
3. What’s your favorite moment/event involving this character?
When he stays to fight with the other teachers during the battle of Hogwarts, rather than running/joining Voldemort/being stereotypically Slytherin.
4. If you could have one power/attribute/etc. of this character, what would it be?
His flair for -- and enjoyment of -- networking, probably.
5. Have you ever pictured this character naked?
Well, if I have, it's surely thanks to your stories, missy! (I always visualise to some degree when reading fic, though Slughorn doesn't get me hot on his own.)
6. When did you fall in love/hate with this character? I you don’t have any strong feelings toward them, why not?
Hmm. Mostly I don't have strong feelings about any of the characters who were introduced during HBP and DH (except Grindelwald, I guess). But the number of characters I have strong feelings about is much smaller than vice versa...
7. Who’s your OTP for this character?
I don't have one in particular, but I always enjoy your Slughorn fic, no matter whom you're pairing him with!
He! Thanks for your thoughts about dear Sluggie. Hyacinth, eh? Ok, here goes:
1. Do you love/hate/don’t feel strongly about this character?
I love her - at least 50% in a love-to-hate her sort of way - if you see what I mean! I think she is a character who invites a strong reaction from most people who know the series; quite a tour de force.
2. What’s your favorite trait of this character?
Mmmm... tricky. I suppose from an entertainment point of view, her utter snobbishness wins out; it always puts her and others into amusing situations.
3. What’s your favorite moment/event involving this character?
I rather liked the moment she mistook a Lord of the Manor as staff, while she was hiding in the garden of his stately home.
4. If you could have one power/attribute/etc. of this character, what would it be?
I think I admire her utter confidence in her own opinions and abilities. She is often not actually right, of course... but that level of self-belief would get one a long way!
5. Have you ever pictured this character naked?
Ha! I thought not, but then I remembered a rather good Hyacinth/Elizabeth fic on bucketresidence, which contained an intimate scene - so as I tend to visualise as I read, the answer must be 'yes'!
6. When did you fall in love/hate with this character? I you don’t have any strong feelings toward them, why not?
From the moment I first saw the series, I think... which must be over a decade ago.
Who’s your OTP for this character?
I'm not sure I have one. I often see Hyacinth as a foil to alternative pairings for Richard, I guess... but, having said that, I liked the idea of Hyacinth/Elizabeth.
Mmmmm... you've made me think now! Maybe its time for more KUA fic :-)

Okay, a character... Hyacinth Bouquet!

Hahaha, I think I remember that episode! That's the one where she haughtily addresses him as "my good man", right?
Maybe its time for more KUA fic :-)
