Is that a lemming I see over there?
Aug. 19th, 2007 01:56 amCause I'm going to need something to procrastinate with tomorrow... Meme gacked from just about everyone on my flist.

02. The character I never expected to love as much as I do now
03. The character everyone else loves that I don't
04. The character I love that everyone else hates
05. The character I used to love but don't any longer
06. The character I would shag anytime.
07. The character I'd want to be like
08. The character I'd slap
09. A pairing that I love
10. A pairing that I despise
Fandoms (in no particular order): Star Wars, Farscape, Harry Potter, Invisible Man, Doctor Who, Torchwood, Dark Angel, Stargate, Buffy, Angel, Firefly. Or anything else you've heard me talk about on here, it's all good.

Date: 2007-08-19 05:13 am (UTC)01. The first character I fell in love with: Daniel, of course *g*
02. The character I never expected to love as much as I do now: Jonas.
03. The character everyone else loves that I don't: Not a character, but... the Jaffa. Jaffa politics drives me nuts, even more so because it so often dominates the story lines involving Teal'c.
04. The character I love that everyone else hates: Umm... not sure. I don't hate Vala, does that count?
05. The character I used to love but don't any longer: Again, don't really know. My feelings for Sam and to a lesser extent Jack got more mixed over time, does that count?
06. The character I would shag anytime: Daniel. Jack. Sam. Teal'c. Cam... Can I just say SG-1 and leave it at that? *g*
07. The character I'd want to be like: None, really. Maybe Janet? Or some mix of bits of all of them...
08. The character I'd slap: Daniel, sometimes. Woolsey, 'cause he pretty much always deserves it.
09. A pairing that I love: Umm... I like my Stargate pretty much ship-free, thanks. Oh, I know! Catherine/Ernest! They were so cute :) And Jack/Sara, 'cause it always seems such a 'real' thing - they loved one another, things fell apart, but there is still affection and shared memories... in my private SG-1 universe, they still meet for coffee every now and then.
10. A pairing that I despise: Sam/Jack. I don't like what it does to their characterisations, I don't like the effects on the show, I don't like the way all the rest of the team is ignored in favour of it when it is there (on the show and especially in fic), I don't like either one of them giving up their careers for the other, I just DON'T LIKE IT. Ahem. Sorry 'bout that - it's one of the few ships I really dislike (although I will admit that I have occasionally seen it done well, and even enjoyed some Sam/Jack UST fics, but it will always be one I try to avoid unless I really trust the author).
Oohh boy. That got a little long, didn't it? *g*

Heh. I *almost* put down Sam/Jack for my pairing, but it's not a pairing I "dislike" so much as I just don't get it, i.e., I don't see the chemistry between them that way. Daniel/Vala...I see the chemistry, I just don't like it. ;-)
Aw! Catherine/Earnest. They were really sweet.
Strangely enough, I'm becoming more and more tolerant of ships in reading fic (but I'm still not really into the pron, hee hee).

My tolerance for ship in fic depends wildly on the fandom. In SG-1 it is fairly low, mostly because I'm totally in this for the team, and so often the non-ship members of the team get largely ignored. But if it's well done, I'll read it. (Unless it's Sam/Jack, in which case it needs to be REALLY well done *g*)
