fandom meme

[astridv]

I finished what work I could do and my taxes are stalled, too. So, meme, snagged from mizzy2k:

Name a fandom you know (that you think I know too!) and I'll tell you:

1. The first character I first fell in love with
2. The character I never expected to love as much as I do now
3. The character everyone else loves that I don’t
4. The character I love that everyone else hates
5. The character I used to love but don’t any longer
6. The character I would totally smooch
7. The character I’d want to be like
8. The character I’d slap
9. A pairing that I love
10. A pairing that I despise

SGA, because someone else already asked about Leverage ;-)

1. The first character I first fell in love with
Rodney. Actually I fell in love with him before even watching the show, through Lim's brilliant vid "My Brilliant Idea".

2. The character I never expected to love as much as I do now
Jennifer. She was kind of there, like Zelenka and Lorne, and then she got stuck in that hole in Trio and I really took notice of her quirky character and sense of humor for the first time. And also of the fact that apperently she had a little thing for McKay, which I found quite intriguing.
Well, then of course it became painfull obvious that fandom at large was less intrigued with the idea and then the wole hate campaign got really into gear and I'm contrarian by nature, so... :P

3. The character everyone else loves that I don’t
Hm. I can't think of any.

4. The character I love that everyone else hates
See number 4.
Maybe Sam qualifies too, but I think she's not as widely hated as Jenn.

5. The character I used to love but don’t any longer
Again, can't think of one. Well, I was more interested in Sheppard when I was new to the fandom but I think it's more that I read so much fic about him (because it was there and a lot of it was very good) that after a while I started to itch for fic about less popular characters like Teyla, Sam, Jennifer, and Ronon. But I still like him.

6. The character I would totally smooch
Todd. (kidding)

7. The character I’d want to be like
Never really thougth about it. Sam, maybe? She's smart but not in this smarter-than-though way of McKcay's (except with McKay, heh) and brave, too. And she gets to explore strange new worlds.


8. The character I’d slap
Rodney. Love him but dude is asking for it sometimes.

9. A pairing that I love
My OTP? Always Sam/Rodney

10. A pairing that I despise
Oh, can of worms! I must rephrase that first because I don't despise this pairing, I just despise the circumstances that led to me liking it less. So, sorry, Rodney and John - you're collateral damage. It's not personal. ;)
I hope I get my McShep squee back eventually, because there are a few stories I'd love to reread.

X-Files!

1. The first character I first fell in love with
Fox Mulder, during the first episode I saw.

2. The character I never expected to love as much as I do now
can't think of any...

3. The character everyone else loves that I don’t
I found Skinner and Krychek more popular than I would've expected from their roles. Though Krycheck was an interesting character.

4. The character I love that everyone else hates
It's so much of a two-people show, I can't think of any

5. The character I used to love but don’t any longer
I stopped watching in the middle of S4 when the show got weird (and the dubbing got worse) but I never fell out of love with the characters

6. The character I would totally smooch
Mulder, no question

7. The character I’d want to be like
Scully's not the worst role model one could think of! :)

8. The character I’d slap
Smoking man

9. A pairing that I love
I was noromo all the way, baby. ;)

10. A pairing that I despise
I didn't like Skinner/Mulder or Mulder/Krychek but despise, nah. I just don't read'em.

A fellow NoRomo! *fistbump* I stuck with it to season *9*... *shudder*
