TVU Challenge 1010 - headCANON
Challenge:
Sticking with the headcanon-theme, this challenge is simply a chance for you to share your thoughts on your fandoms of choice. Below are a list of items which I blatantly stole from a meme I posted to my own LJ last week for you to answer about any character you choose. You do not have to adhere to canon for these answers, as they are 100% your feelings. (if you want to share with us your belief that Harry Potter and the Wicked Witch of the West are, in fact, the true heirs of Han Solo, you can go for it! only, not that, since they aren't approved TVU-fandoms...) There are no wrong answers, but we do ask that you at least give us two sentence-answers.
Here they are: Hewlett, Longmire.
1) Edmund Hewlett (TURN)
01: OTP and why?
With Anna Strong. I love how he chokes with awkwardness whenever he talks to her on a personal level. I love him getting over the awkward phase. I love that she can’t help herself but care about him. I love that she is so confused about caring about the enemy.
02: brOTP and why?
This is tough. Hewlett is the loneliest guy in town. He would assume his friend would be Richard Woodhull, but I don’t think it will last even though they have the same political leanings.
03: NOTP and why?
This would be Hewlett and Simcoe. I have a whole fanvid about that! I don’t get what Simcoe’s problem is. He’s power hungry and ruthless and will stop at nothing to get what he wants.
04: First moment you knew you liked this character and why?
When he stuttered over inviting her to a dinner party and suddenly realized that she might think he was hitting on her. He is a perfect gentleman. Really.
05: Favorite line from this character and why?
“I thought that I might make a proposal. I don’t mean, of course, in the formal sense of the word.” If the scene was brighter, Hewlett would have turned bright red. He laughed in embarrassment. She just watched him dig himself in deeper as he tried to offer her friendship.
06: Favorite scene for this character and why?
When he is reunited with Anna after his month-long capture. There is no Open Display of Affection from him, but he closes his eyes when she kisses his cheek.
07: One way in which you relate to this character and why?
He’s an outsider. I can relate to that.
08: Something this character does/has done that embarrasses you and why?
He’s been a snooty Englishman, forcing people into an impossible situation. He manipulated them. Then he got to know him and it all changed.
09: Teddy Bear or Troublemaker and why?
Teddddyyyyy!!!! Goes from stiff and formal to awkward and bashful when she’s around.
10: One thing you would like to see happen to this character?
He marries Anna Strong. They have to decide together if they’re on the side of the Patriots or the English.
2) Walt Longmire (Longmire)
01: OTP and why?
Walt Longmire and Vic Moretti. They are total opposites. He’s never quite sure what to expect from her and I think she entertains him. She has certainly distracted him from the loss of his wife.
02: brOTP and why?
Henry Standing Bear is his brOTP and has been for many years. They both respect each other immensely. They are like family.
03: NOTP and why?
Jacob Nighthorse and Walt are like oil and water. He is convinced Jacob has his wife killed. Jacob never misses an opportunity to push Walt’s buttons.
04: First moment you knew you liked this character and why?
Almost right away. His measured quiet ways keep you wondering what he’s thinking. He doesn’t talk much, which can be a serious problem for those he works with.
05: Favorite line from this character and why?
“I can’t believe I hit you”. He’s appalled that he hits Vic by mistake and gives her a serious nosebleed.
06: Favorite scene for this character and why?
My favourite scene with Walt is when Jacob pushes just the right button and Walt spins around to punch him and hit Vic instead, leaving her with a bloody nose.
07: One way in which you relate to this character and why?
The only way I can relate to him is by admiring how he thinks things out (usually) before he acts. He never says much.
08: Something this character does/has done that embarrasses you and why?
He spits a lot. (Well, a lot for the tv that I watch where they never spit!) Which is pretty realistic for a cowboy, I guess, but he better not do it in my presence!
09: Teddy Bear or Troublemaker and why?
Probably a Teddy Bear if he’d just let himself go. He’s certainly a troublemaker for those outside the law.
10: One thing you would like to see happen to this character?
As mentioned in the last question, I’d like to see him relax and enjoy the little things in life. He lives on a gorgeous ranch with horses, yet he seldom goes riding. He needs to let the death of his wife go and move on. Preferably with Vic (which is canon in the books, but not the show!)
3) Ellie Miller (Broadchurch)
01: OTP and why?
Alec Hardy is the OTP. The complement one another as they respect one another and they can empathize and support one another.
02: brOTP and why?
Well, that would probably be Alec Hardie again. She has been ostracized since her husband killed a boy and he’s the only one around to be a “friend”.
03: NOTP and why?
Ellies ex-husband is the NOTP. She was done with him the minute Alec convinced her that he had murdered Danny.
04: First moment you knew you liked this character and why?
I knew I liked her the first time she reamed out Hardy. She never took any crap from him right from the start. And he sure dished out the crap.
05: Favorite line from this character and why?
“Shut up” to Alec Hardy (her boss). I told you she didn’t take crap from him!
06: Favorite scene for this character and why?
I think my favourite scene is near the very end of the case when she sits with him and tells him that he did it. He solved it. The albatross that was hanging around his neck and had almost killed him was gone.
07: One way in which you relate to this character and why?
Oh, I could say I admire her more than relate to her. She’s bright, smart and determined.
08: Something this character does/has done that embarrasses you and why?
She gushed over her husband before she knew he as a pedophile. That was nauseating.
09: Teddy Bear or Troublemaker and why?
Teddy Bear because she’s so soft hearted. Alec Hardy would say she’s a Troublemaker because her cheerfulness drove him crazy. Now her sadness drives him crazy.
10: One thing you would like to see happen to this character?
I would like for her to return to her cheery, sassy self. And to roll in the hay with Hardy. On a permanent basis.
