Here's the meme:
1. Leave a comment to this post!
2. I will give you a letter.
3. Post the names of five fictional characters whose names begin with that letter, and your thoughts on each. The characters can be from books, movies, or TV shows.
1. Karl "Helo" Agathon - (totally counts, because he was introduced in the mini only as Helo and didn't have any other name until they (wisely) decided to keep him). Helo was my entry into BSG fandom. I'm a sucker for tall (6'3"), handsome men with green eyes, fictional and otherwise.
2. Haymitch Abernathy - gruff drunk with a heart of coal (you didn't think I was going to say "gold," did you?), Haymitch was a cocky but smart youth and it nearly destroyed him. I love Haymitch.
3. Jo Harvelle - She was so much more than SPN fandom ever gave her credit for. She was smart and determined and resourceful and, in the end, braver than anyone else around her (with the possible exception of her mother, Ellen Harvelle).
4. Alec Hardison - He is the ultimate geek and I love him to pieces.
5. Helena Cain - an example of strength warped. She could have been someone who could help save humnanity, but she was too motivated by fear to be able to see beyond it.
ETA: In spite of the tags on this post, my choices were not all boys. *facepalm*
ETA2: D'oh! As it turns out, I DO in actual fact have a tag for awesome women. *facepalm*
