because I should be working

A meme, courtesy of manekikoneko. Thanks!

I'm not sure this is the best one out there because looking at hers and robertmapril's I can't begin to guess any of them, but we'll see. But I've tried to pick fandoms that people on my flist might actually be familiar with. Some of them I'm not even sure who my favorite character is yet - guess I'd better figure that out ( Read more... )

Okay, I'm going for what I think is obvious from the fandoms I know enough about to guess.

1. Elizabeth Bennet (there are other characters, but since no one else has guessed, I'll start at the top.)
2. Samwise Gamgee
3. Han Solo
6. Kaylee
9. Gil

1. Nope, sorry, though I do love Lizzy. :)
2. In the movies, I think yes. But not in the books.
6. Yes!
9. Well, he is awesome, but not quite my favorite. :)

Damn! Eowyn was my second guess. Nice choice of favorite, btw. I need to reread the LOTR books. Some day.

Am I allowed second guesses? If so, Elinor Dashwood. :-)

Wow. If I get all these wrong, what does that say?

1. I'm gonna guess Mr Darcy, as Elizabeth has been guessed already and I more or less have forgotten the entirety of 'Sense and Sensibility' from my High School reading, so can't be counted to list characters

2. Faramir

3. Star Wars

4. The Doctor

5. Silk

6. Wash, because how can you not?

7. ?

8. I'll guess Anthy, but that's from picking up names primarily through osmosis

9. Never read it.

10. Yuna

1. Nope, I'm afraid not.
2. Ooh, I hadn't thought about him. I am a big fan, but he's not quite at the top.

4. Yes! Any guesses as to which one? (50/50 shot, given that I've only ever seen several episodes apiece with 1 and 4, and none of the others.)
5. Exactly. Good call.

6. I don't know how I can not, but somehow I manage :)

Why did I type "Star Wars?" robertmapril April 6 2008, 00:12:10 UTC
I must be losing my mind

I'm going to guess Nine, but I may be transferring, as Nine is my personal fave of the New New Doctors. I actually figured Kaylee might be your girl, but someone had already picked it and no, I don't know how anybody can not.

Yep, nine it is. I love Tennant but just can't get behind his doctor in quite the same way.

1. Emma? I'm fairly sure it's Elizabeth Bennett, but that's been guessed already.

2. Though I know you love Faramir, I'm going to go with Eowyn, Shield Maiden of the Rohhirhim.

3. Mara Jade kicks all kinds of ass. But so does Grand Admiral Thrawn. Woot, Timothy Zahn!

5. Poledra. I mean, she was a frickin' wolf who figured out how to turn into a person. Easily the most badass character in the series. And certainly the one who moped the least. Durnik is cool, but my appreciation of the solid mentor figure with integrity is lessened by Eddings' cop out of "oh, well, now you're a sorcerer, too!". What's wrong with tough choices?

6. I think you're a Kaylee person, too, but I'm going to go with Jayne. I'm not sure why.

1. Nope, not Emma.
2. Ding ding! How can I resist?
3. So I admit those were the first two that popped into my head, but I actually settled on someone else entirely. Not very good at picking favorites. :)

5. Hmmm. Those are both solid choices, especially Durnik. I think Beldin is cooler than Poledra, though, if we're talking peripheral characters.
6. Kaylee it was.

3. Obi Wan Kenobi, because Alec Guinness kicks ass and Ewan MacGregor is hot. Plus, who doesn't like a wise-ass with a laser sword? Who is more the fool: the fool or the fool who follows?

Yes, and not just for the actors, though they should be enough!

3. No, not Yoda. :)
4. Amazingly enough, no. He is fantastic, though.
7. The Stig is awesome - but it's not him.
8. No, not Touga.
10. Hah! Is that fair when he's in all of them? He was one of my favorite party in endstage FFVII, though. Not top of the list, though.

7. The young cute one whose name eludes me at the moment?

Which Doctor?

lockholm April 6 2008, 13:30:26 UTC
Yes, Richard Hammond. THis was one of the ones I dithered on for ages, but the Hamster makes me smile. :)

and... the ninth! you?

Ten of course! By a smidge past Nine, but I love Tennant's characterization.
