what's that say about me?

[crickets]

ozmissage gave me this meme after lengthy discussions about "what our shipping and character preference say about us." This one's just about characters, maybe I'll alter it and do a "pairings" one later.

List fifteen (or however many) of your favorite characters from different fandoms and ask people to spot patterns in your choices, if they're so inclined

Ooh, oh! I like this! And I wanna do it tooooo! Though, 1am, probably not the best time for analysing teeeeveeeeeeeee (or maybe it's the BEST time?!)

Hm. Can I just do an "I APPROVE OF YOUR CHOICES" type reaction instead :)

[Also, the fact that these are broken up into groups of five, is that part of the meme? Have I missed something? Sorry, like I said, 1am and all that...! But I'll need to know for when I COPY IT SHAMELESSLY!]

eta: I only know eight of the characters you've mentioned above! CLEARLY I DO NOT WATCH ENOUGH TELEVISION! AND LUCKILY, 1AM IS KINDA THE PERFECT TIME TO RECTIFY THAT TOOOO!

[crickets]

You're definitely allowed to say that. Definitely. Definitely.

Oh man I'm a dork. I split them like that so I could count easily by fives without numbering them. There's no other reason they're split. Let me fix that right now! Hahaha.

Wait 8? ONLY 8? That seems so unlikely to me! Haha. I wanna know which 8!

You do need to do this meme! I think 1AM is absolutely the best time. But anytime is the best time to analyze TV (or movies, or books, or whatever.)

[waltzmatildah]

Okay, so, here are the eight.

Cristina Yang
Buffy Summers
Stephen Holder
Katherine Pierce
Felix Dawkins
Pacey Witter
Gale Hawthorne
Chon McAlister

(I've never watched any of those other shows, with the exception of one or two episodes of Dollhouse and Firefly because Joss, but I really couldn't get into either show and the episodes that I did watch were yeaaaarrrrssss ago).

Do I fail at television watching? I probably do!

[crickets]

Haha, well... only kinda!

Great choices! I love Felix, Duke and Buffy. Can't wait to see your pairing choices. :)

[crickets]

I don't know when or if I'll post that!

All of these characters (at least the ones I know of) are what I'd consider 'snarky' and they all (again, the ones I know) call people on their crap. The ladies are all badass in their own ways and a good chunk of these characters have been in love triangles/squares/whatever. I also think some of them are part of pairings you ship.

[crickets]

Some of them are and some of them aren't one half (or one third) of pairings I ship. If they're a leading character it's hard to escape the dreaded love triangle though, haha!

Snarky crap-callers. Yeah, that pretty well sums it up.

I was randomly scrolling by and couldn't help but notice your gr8 taste, SO: you like funny, stylish, seemingly superficial characters with backbones of steel and serious loyalty (Kenzi, Felix, Hanna, Buffy) as well as sexy, destructive assholes who have a problem with authority (Kara, Brian, Mal).

[crickets]

Hahaha! Destructive? Don't you mean misunderstood? (Or okay... destructive... haha.)

Thank you!

UGH KENZI. I love her so much!

I don't know what it means, but I see we have very similar tastes in characters. :D
