Meme 1 - To get you in the mood...

Give me a character (and no one is off limits, whether they come from a book, a movie, television, you get the picture) and I will give you at least five facts about them according to my own personal canon. This can range from their birthday, favorite color or even their earliest memory up to what they had last ( Read more... )

1. Oldschool!Who correctamundo. It's obvious. I do indeed love the crickety-cricket and the ginger menace. What can I say? You know me well. But ponder this. - What about NewWho?
2. Honestly, I waver. Merlin I love to pieces, and whilst Colin is guh!worthy, Merlin is less-so, so I think it's mainly for the snarky awesome and the evil-grins-of-evil. That said, Gwen is fucking awesome. And so is Hunith. Yay for strong female characters! (Even if they aren't in it all the time.)
3. Luke. Because he's just so sweet. But honestly, I have another favourite, you just haven't managed to get...
4. Obviously! I was so obsessed. I learnt bits of Czech because of that scruffy little geek!
6. Rincewind is not my favourite of the Wizards, but he is pretty darned awesome. I am indeed a Nanny Ogg Gal! Death of Rats is probably the most obvious of my adorances. And truly, my enjoyment of the Watch revolves around Nobby and Cheery (I want them to be friends and swap tips about dresses and OMG it would be awesome!)
7. Yes. Although I obviously do have more than a little fondness for Arthur, Ford is the crazy lunatic with the unsettling smile that I will always adore.
8. Worryingly, your not knowing has not stopped you from guessing half of my favourite Harry Potter Duo. Well done. Or possibly stop freaking me out!
13. Yes. My love of Scumspawn is widely known. You should listen, you'd like it. It's really good, I promise. I'll give you the mp3s...
14. Film-wise I'm mostly in it for the pretty, but book wise it's the characters I'll always adore. Gimli is awesome, and I was always glad that he and Legolas went a-drifting off together at the end, but I have other favourites. (Clue, it's not Legolas either!)
16. Wilson is teh pretty, and he is indeed awesome, but my favourite of favourites is rather newer to the show, and a lot less permanent.
21. Oooh. I do like Darling, but more in the Darling/Blackadder sense. Guess again my dear.
22. Setting aside the Angel and the Demon, there are a pair who I love in ridiculous amounts... Even if I do want to be a cross between Aziraphale and Bernard Black when I'm older.
24. TRUFAX! And I do have a wrong!crush on Skandar Keynes. Not that I'm perving on him... At least not until September. *evilgrin*
25. Too obvious, that's my problem! Ducky is indeed love, and most of the reason I watch the show, although I prettymuch adore all of the characters, and I can ship almost anyone with anyone (except for some reason either of the Directors with anyone, but that's probably because I'm not big with 'authority figures').

1. I don't know... Donna, perhaps. Or you go for mine, and The Master (OMNOMNOM).
3. Alan Jackson? NO K9.
6. Ok then... The Bursar.
8. LUNA?
14. Hang on. I'm pretty sure I've heard you extolling the virtues of Samwise Gamgee. He of the spurious West Country accent.
16. Now I want to say Blew the Janitor. Have you seen any of series 5 yet? Because if so, LUCAS.
21. Queenie?
22. Do you like Newt and Anathema? OH NO WAIT I THINK I'VE GOT IT (and scared Hannah by my facial expression) BRIAN AND WENSLEYDALE.

1. Donna and the Master are both awesome, but they're not who I'm thinking of (although now I am seeing a weird dystopian future where Donna is the Master's 'wife' instead of Lucy, and it's terrifying on so many levels)
3. Yes! Alan Jackson. The coolest TV dad ever. And I love K9 to bits, but he's hardly on the show more's the pity. (speaking of which, do you know where I can watch s2 again? I missed an episode and I'm desperate! It's the Brigadier one *headdesk*
6. Nope. Have another go. The Bursar is pretty damn awesome though. *snuggles the crazy little fruitbat of a wizard*
8. YES *throws glitter* You and Beci came to the same conclusion. It is indeed Neville and Luna who are my bestest Harry Potter characters.
14. ...I might have a slight... fondness for the badly accented-one, yes. *Oh damn it, you caught me, I like hobbits, alright. I always wanted to be one as a kid, and while it's not Sam I was thinking of necessarily, I don't deny that I had a crush on sean Astin for a verylong time.
16. ...You mean Doctor Buffer, not Blew the Janitor! And NO! ...Lucas the Private Eye? He was awesome, but not him... Keep guessing.
21. Correctamundo! Queenie is the most awesome thing ever. I want Queen Liz to have really been like that. In fact, I want Miranda Richardson to be Queen. It would be fantastic!
22. YES!!!!!!!! Brian and Wensley are OMGSOCUTE!!!! I need more people to write fic of them.

*glee* Keep up the guessing game!
