Few thoughts and two memes
Things I've learned this week:
- Man, I sound like a robot. Seriously, I've been looking at the comments I've been dropping around and Kraftwerk starts playing in my head.
- If you feel paranoid about something, there's usually a reason for it. Not listening to your paranoia may lead to some academic fail. >_<
- FF7-specific: If you like both Tifa and Aerith, you will always and forever be in a minority. It's the law of nature.
- Kristin Kreuk-specific: Apparently if you play an unpopular female character on TV once, you will be a pariah forever. I mean some Smallville-fans are actually shocked that she wasn't Lana on that Chuck-episode. Way to be supportive of other women there, people.
- Female characters need more loving. True story.
And then the memes. Meme the First:
The first FIVE people to comment in this post get to request that I write a drabble/ficlet of any pairing/character of their choosing. (If I don't know the fandom, I'll give you chance to change, or I can make something up.)In return, they have to post this in their journal, regardless of their ability level.
DW version here so you can keep count.
Meme the Second:
Comment with the name of a female character (in any show, movie, book, comic, etc that you think I'm familiar with) and I'll tell you one thing I love about her. In return, you can do the same in your journal (if you like!).
You are also free to combine these two memes: Ask me about a female character, then make me write about her. Everything is a go this weekend!

2. Ruby (what? I like her, esp s3 Ruby)

2. I liked her too, and I liked her the very best when she was Katie Cassidy. What I love about Ruby that she always had an agenda and that agenda was All About Ruby, and how that remained consistent through all her changes. I loved that she was never ashamed of what she was and didn't bow to the Winchesters or let them push her around. I loved that she knew which strings to pull and how to slip through the right cracks and how relentlessly she went after what she wanted and got it in the end. She took manipulating the Winchesters to an entirely new level and that was pretty damn cool.
