Let's start this with the easy part: every single one of my over 25+ pups on my
Gaming Journal's List was backed up over Christmas, before the mass exodus was voted. All of them have the exact same names. All of them have their imports done. All but the top eleven have all their icons on hand, too.
But this post only pertains to Milliways, we go to only those in the center of it:

Star of the Tarot, Major Arcana XVII , Celestial IA truly beautiful joy to play, and good for being able to pop in and out at any moment, regardless of plot on my part or anyone else's. Also, the only character in the world who never gets sad or has a first or second doubt?
Verdict: Keeping

Marian of Knighton/Ravenskeep
BBC Robin Hood/Fairy TalesMy first character. The blue-grey eyed, sharp-tonged, selfless-hearted Lady? The one who stumbled through learning about homosexuality? And ended up working for a Neverwhere mistress? And getting advice about Guy of Gisborne from Tom Riddle? Who will never not be touched by the Arthurian four-leaf-clover and the Narnian lion ring hanging on a chain at her neck? I can't even conceive of any other answer.

Haruhi Fujaka, "The Natural One"
Ouran High School Host ClubShe's the one who came in with the biggest canon corner, and was the third person whose canon corner then never existed. While I do love her, I haven't had much to with her, and she hasn't gotten to interact much with the people in her canon I was truly hoping she'd get to. I don't have any plans for her, and I don't think any of the others do either, so.

Edward Cullen
TwilightMy copper eyed 'boy,' all laconic and gifted and so dedicated to the things he is, he couldn't breathe to ever think away from them even if he could breathe? Obviously, like Marian and few others to come, this one is no contest. He'll definitely come. (Though in my head, I spent half the day consider, what if when the world stumbled, you suddenly met an Edward whose family never moved to Forks? ....except that would negate Meg. And Edward really dislikes anything that negates Meg.)

Peeta Mellark
The Hunger GamesThe second boy who moved in and just took over after a weekend reading blitzkreig. All idealistic. Not a clue how broken he will get to one day, nor how much he truly loves the girl. He has so far to go, I have so many ideas, and his canon/fandom is about to get a spike. Plus, how could I ever walk away from seeing how his friendships with same-aged/teenaged Lily Evans and James Potter will end up rippling out in both worlds?

Esme Cullen
TwilightAs much as I love and understand Esme Cullen, and oh I really do, this character was never one of my picks. I took her up for Steph as a sort of NPC-ability and then ended up keeping her. But she never really morphed past that stage. As much as I've had fun and loved making her icons, and finding all sorts of things and writing all sort of things for her, I haven't epp'd or oom'd her in ages. Nor felt compelled to or guilty about it. So with sad heart.

Illyana Rasputin; Magik
Marvel/X-Men ComicsWe've had a long go, Illyana and I. We signed on for what was supposed to be a short wait years ago, and we're still waiting. I adore Illyana madly. She's tied in second place for my favorite girl X-Men. I really love what I've gotten to write of her, current and dreamscape and memories. I think in the moved Milliways I may toss the lid off and go with whatever comes out. Maybe current comics, who knows. But I want her playable after like four years waiting.
Verdict: Keeping

Jean Grey; The Phoenix
Marvel/X-Men comicsIt took me two, maybe three, years to get this character, even after settling for half-ownership and the right to oom her (in the Farscape ooms). I'm getting to play with her in The White Hot Room, and out of it. Against people like Tarot Cards and Elrond, even if the bar is suddenly rather slight on a lot of other Marvel people I might throw her at. But she's my heart, my favorite X-Men and character of all time. I just got her. There's absolutely no way.
Verdict: Keeping

Tai Huang
Pirates of the CaribbeanI have honestly not done anything with this since we were threading the movie forever ago and they needed people to take on roles. And volunteerism for NPCing apparently happens in my world. So I got him. And he is mine. And he's not. All at once. Because woo NPC powers. I suppose if Heater ever needs him for Elizabeth she knows where to find me. (....for several characters really.)

Aeryn Sun
FarscapeAn NPC journal that was made, but ended up not being needed. I may have to toss her somewhere just to sandbox her for a whole lot of fun. Aeryn is another one of those people I love so deeply.

Allie Keyes
TakenOh. Oh, see, Allie is my special one. I could had sworn I'd given her up, which is why she's listed in this section because she's been in that part of my head so long. Since she went utterly silent in the wake of the upheaval that happened with Silent Hill, which had originally woke her back up. I love Allie. To the stars and moon and back. And Allison, who she was when she older. And her tiny-adoption and quasi-romance with George Luz. Her parents as Knox and Rhapsody were the best ever. And it hurts my heart to think of watching someone else play her right now.

Monica Dawson
Heroes
Still my favorite Heroes person. So much tribulation and she still went at the world with a smile and can do attitude. And her power was amazing. I never did get to do what I wanted with her and Heroes area sort of spooled out of the crazy as the show went bonkers and people tried to pick up the pieces and then one by one vanished, including me.
Verdict: Stays Deleted, Not Retired

Lyta Alexander
Babylon 5The third in my trifecta of red-headed telepaths whom are my favorite characters. Lyta seriously got thrown under the bus during my thesis semester when I met Edward (three years later I still don't care about his books, but I adore him). He took over everyone, and Lyta and my other then main focus both went silent, for him. I love Lyta. I always have. Always will. I do wish I'd done more with her. Maybe if there was interest.....but I'm not desperate for it yet.
