I seem to be in a fandom mode this week. Sadly, I haven't had much to talk about this week in real life. I've just been reading lots of books, which, while fun, is not exactly thrilling journal material unless I know other people to discuss it with. In light of that, I'm jumping on this bandwagon:

Name a fandom you know I know and I'll tell you:
1. The first character/person I first fell in love with
2. The character/person I never expected to love as much as I do now
3. The character/person everyone else loves that I don't
4. The character/person I love that everyone else hates
5. The character/person I used to love but don't any longer
6. The character/person I would *ahem* anytime
7. The character/person I'd want to be like
8. The character/person I'd slap
9. A pairing that I love
10. A pairing that I despise

I'd really like to see your answers for Star Trek. :)

[patagonian.livejournal.com]

Why Harry Potter of course!

[mari4212.livejournal.com]

Original? Or any of the sequels. Warning, I ended up dropping Enterprise midway through.

[mari4212.livejournal.com]

Sure.

[rynmorianqueen.livejournal.com]

What've you been reading?

Fandom...how about LOTR? *not sure if you know this one, but HP's already been shouted out*

[ljmckay.livejournal.com]

Ooh, ooh! I like this one! I will be stealing it...

Hmm...again, such a difficult decision...Stargate Atlantis!

[ishie]

Oooh, original!

(I never even made it past the first season of Enterprise :\ )

KNOWS it? She got me ADDICTED to it ^_^

[lady-tigerfish.livejournal.com]

Let's go with Tamora Pierce for you too ^_^

X-Men
-has cheated by looking in your interests-

[toniabarone.livejournal.com]

*cheats and looks at interests* Oh! SG1. Well, I couldn't decide between SG1 and Highlander but I know SG1 a little better...

[heylittleriver.livejournal.com]

Gah! LJ beat me to Atlantis! :P So... NCIS?

[mari4212.livejournal.com]

Sure.

[mari4212.livejournal.com]

*grins*

[mari4212.livejournal.com]

Sure. I warn you, this will be movieverse, I don't have much experience with the comics.

[mari4212.livejournal.com]

Sure.

[mari4212.livejournal.com]

Poor dear. Okay, NCIS.

[mari4212.livejournal.com]

*giggles* Sure.

hey...this has everything to do with fandom and nothing to do with your post really, but I've written a 1000 ish word opening for HP book 7 and wanted some people to read it before I submitted it to the contest at Mugglenet.com. Would you mind being one of my editors?

I'm going for 2nd place here cause 2nd place gets a free wand from Alivans.com!!

[mari4212.livejournal.com]

Okay, here goes:
1. I think it was Scotty.
2. McCoy. He's now my all time favorite.
3. I never felt much of a connection to Spock. He's great, but I have no real bond with him.
4. None that I can think of. It's been a while, and I was never really in this fandom as a fandom.
5. I used to really like Chekov. I don't as much anymore. I still like him, just not as much.
6. None of them, actually. Nobody really caught my eye that much from this series.
7. McCoy. He cared so much about people, even when he tried to hide it.
8. Probably Kirk, although that really comes from Shatner.
9. Sarek/Amanda
10. I don't really go for the Kirk/babe of the week, or Kirk/Spock.

[mari4212.livejournal.com]

Sure. E-mail it to me, I'll look it over.

[jediravenclaw.livejournal.com]

sent to your school email addy :)

THANK YOU!!!!!

1. I think it was Remus.
2. Neville. I didn't even think about him at first, but now he's my favorite character. I'd be most upset if he doesn't get a good life in the end.
3. I don't really like Ron. He's got a lot of good points, but he's the one who most consistantly grates on my nerves.
4. In this fandom, everone is alternately loved and hated. Sadly, many people seem to hate Tonks, maybe because she messed up Remus/Sirius, maybe because they felt she fell apart too much in HBP. But I love her.
5. I don't have as much of a bond with Hermione anymore.
6. Remus. Or Neville in about five years.
7. Professor Sprout. After what she said at the end of HPB, and her general attitude throughout the books, she's just a beautiful person.
8. During most of OoTP, I really wanted to slap Sirius. I understood what was happening to him, but I still wanted to slap some sense into him, then sneak him out of London and let him run around as a dog in a park somewhere.
9. Remus/Hermione. They could work.
10. Ron/Hermione. They don't seem to respect each other and they keep fighting the same battle, and they get vicious with each other. To me that's not passionate, that's scary.

Right now I've been reading the latest in the Dragonriders of Pern series, a new Mercedes Lackey, and Terry Pratchett.

As for LOTR
1. Frodo.
2. Sam. He's someone I care deeply about.
3. Legolas.
4. Boromir. I've always seen more in him than the betrayal
5. Frodo, actually. My love for him waned a bit when I fell in love with Sam.
6. Aragorn.
7. Galadrial.
8. Tom Bombadil. He just got annoying after a while.
9. Eowyn/Faramir.
10. Merry/Pippen.

[mari4212.livejournal.com]

1. Abby. I liked her from the Jag Pilot.
2. Ducky! He grew fast.
3. Tony. Don't get me wrong, I like him, but he gets annoying after a while.
4. Jimmy Palmer. *snuggles the geeky boy*
5. None really.
6. If he were younger or I was older, Ducky.
7. None of them are me.
8. Right now, Ziva. She's a good character, but she does annoy me at times.
9. I can't see a good one right now.
10. Kate/Ari. (yes, I have seen these around)
