a. Post a list of 15 fandoms.
b. Have your friends list guess your
favourite character from each one.
c. When guessed, bold the line,
include the character name, and write a sentence about why you like
that character.

but, I'm not sure I have 15...

1. Gargoyles Demona. Alexandria guessed. I love this character for her pain, her beauty (on a physical and mental level) and just how complicated and well-created she is. I may not always agree with Demona but I can see where she's coming from, and I love how 'real' she seems.

2. Blake's 7 (awwwww, NO other B7 fans here? But it's such a fun show!)

3. Forever Knight Janette. Guessed by Spacebabie, Alex AND Mooncat. I'm easy to figure that way, I guess, but really. How hard is it to love Janette? Sexy, snarky French gothette vampire bartender. This is of course before that gawdawful episode that had her wanting to be a human. wtf writers?!?

4. Transformers (original from way back when) Ravage, and he's the only one of the pile of tfs toys I had as a kid that I still have, too. Guessed by Spacie 'n MC, although Alex you came close with Soundwave...his clear amorality and that KEWL monochrome voice always gave me little happy shivers. And he and Ravvy are kinda a pair. Why like him? 's a big pretty mecha-panther. Let's not go any deeper than that right now. I want one!!!!

5. X-men (comics) Sage. Alex 'n MC got it, but that's hardly fair, I've out 'n said as much on several occasions. Sage is just the embodiment of angst. Brilliant, misunderstood, aloof and the bearer of secret love and pain, she's also a bit of a bitch and a heck of a snappy dresser. I love Sage. Hmm, she and Janette would have a lot to talk about. There's a crossover fic for ya...

6. X-men: Evolution Rogue. Spacie 'n MC got this. Given the everyone's-in-high-school evo-verse silliness, a "teenage goth chick" Rogue amused me mightily. She seems to have the most actual character development and depth, and her design is tres, tres hot. Though Rahne comes close. Alex, I like Storm too (I ALWAYS like Storm ;) but the writers just didn't spend enough time developing her to make her #1 in my heart. Although I wish they had, because I was really curious about her background in evo, what with her family ties with Spike and his parents. I wanted to know and evo never really went there.

I think of all the X-characters, if you look at the various incarnations of Rogue (compare especially movie and evo Rogue) there is the greatest degree of variation. So many ways to approach an untouchable girl. Yet Rogue remains forever herself, recognizably Rogue. Thoughts?

7. X-men (movies) no one gots it yet, but Jean...Jean is beautiful and wonderful, and I feel bad not having her as a favorite anywhere because I love Jean. And of course Logan is almost it by a hair. So now my favorite should be easy to guess.

8. ST: TNG Picard. Martes, ya got it. Because Patrick Stewart has to be, like, one of the best actors ever, and Jean-Luc is this beautiful person. And sezzy as anything, even though aging and bald dosen't usually do me. (If we can go back to XMM for a moment, consider both the Prof and Magneto...*hot!!!*) Ensign Ro comes very close, the proto-Kira character. See immediately below.

9. ST: DS9 Kira. Alex got it. Kira, oh my, Kira. DS9 is by far my favorite Trek and Kira is, I feel, at the heart of its darkness and ephemeral hope. Snappish, brittle, anguished, full of defiant strength and beauty. I have such the fictional-character-crush on this girl. Her romance with Odo is just...so...perfect, as are a half dozen other Kira eps I could mention. Although, Martes, I do love Garak the "humble tailor." Free Bajor!

10.ST: Voyager Seven of Nine. You ALL got this one. I guess I'm not that hard to figure. ;) A wonderfully subtle, complicated and hilarious character. I wish I'd seen more of the later Voyager, because the show really picked up when she arrived. And yes, sexy, but I'm above such base motivations.

11.ST: TOS Spock. Yeah, you all got this one, too. One of these elegant, aloof, hidden types that I seem to be so fond of. Spock is wonderful.

12. The Sandman c'mon guys, this should be easy ;)

13. Wolf's Rain (keeping in mind that I've only seen season 1)

14. Nightmare Before Christmas (is that a fandom??) Jack; Martes 'n MC got it, but Sally follows close. A wonderful allegory, is our Jack, and Danny Elfman sings for him. He's such a cute, wistful skeleton too, awww.

15. Uh...stretching...Princess Mononoke yah MC, Queen Moro, "the big wolf." ;D "It will take more than that to kill her: she is, after all, a god." *shiver* this is my favorite ever film, and the only one I can think of that actually brought tears to my eyes. SO good. As far as favoites, San comes close.

k, so I do have 15. Let's see what y'all think.

*edit*

OK, so I forgot a big one.

16. Beauty and the Beast. Was my FAVORITE show for a long time, and yes, I am a romantic sap.
17. 21 Jump Street (siiiiiiiiiiigh, I guess I have to admit that.)
