Reply and I'll give you four fandoms. You then have to make an entry writing about your favorite character from each fandom, and why.
Transformers
Here's where everyone expects me to say either Shockwave or Mirage. It's true, I do love them dearly. However, neither of them are my favorite character. They are among my favorites, but they aren't my favorite. I'm also an Arcee and Rodimus fangirl, but they didn't grab me 'til late in the series.
I love Prowl. What can I say, I like sexy disciplinarian police cars. I'm not sure why he grabbed be so much when I was a kid. I think I honestly just liked his altmode. A lot. But he was a major figure in the early series, and I enjoy most incarnations of him.
Most, not all. I haven't read all the IDW stuff, but I somehow doubt I'll be happy with it.
Harry Potter
Snape. Hands down. I'm a sucker for snarky bad guys in general, and really, Snape was simply one of the most interesting characters in the series for me. Hermione had potential early in the series, but I really dislike the way Rowling evolved her.
Stargate
Ah, now this gets twitchy. SG-1, or Atlantis? You do not specify, so I must do both.
SG-1: Daniel Jackson. Love me some nerdbait. Much as I love Daniel's evolution through the series (and OMG does Michael Shanks look hot now that he's so buff), I actually prefer lanky, four-eyed, slightly bumbling Daniel from nearly in the series.
Atlantis: Rodney McKay. Again, nerd love, but with snark added. Hewlitt isn't the most attractive character on the series by far, but looks aren't the only reason to fan a character. I just love the way McKay has been brought to life.
Torchwood
I am predictable and agree with the masses. Love me some Captain Jack Harkness. I adored him in Dr. Who, and watched Torchwood strictly on the basis of that. Sure, he's cute, but I love that the character is so... unapologetic. He is what he is, and you either love him or hate him. Barrowman has done an amazing job bringing him to life.
Want me to give you some fandoms to talk about? Comment away!

Date: 2010-09-07 05:00 am (UTC)I hated Snape from the get-go and he never did redeem himself in my eyes. (the carrying a torch all his life for Lily just made it worse, made him an immature stalker who would not grow up) He was every abusive teacher who marked tests unfairly, handed out punishments on personal prejudices and generally hated his students.
I had a few of those.
