Nicked off fandom_me

1. Comment to this post with the name of a character that I have written in fic. Or geeked out about.
2. I will comment telling you the following:
a. What initially prompted me to like the character enough to write about him/her.
b. One of his/her best traits.
c. One of his/her worst traits.
d. How easy/difficult I find it to write the character.
e. The story/chapter/paragraph/phrase where I feel that I truly captured the character*.
f. My plans (if any) to write the character in the near future.

(By the way, I'll be a bit absent this evening, as we have friends coming over for dinner, but I should be back for an hour or two before bedtime.)

ETA Sorry, but obviously I don't have time to reply to these right away (friends are due in 45 minutes) but I'll try and think up answers while I shower and post them later on. :-)

Both Spike and Angel have fascinating backgrounds. They've changed so much - Spike admittedly more so - seen so much, done so much...

I definitely have a thing for long-lived characters, because having experienced so much makes them so much more interesting!

I like Spike more than Angel. I guess because Spike made the decision to change and get a soul while Angel had the change thrust upon him.

I like Angel more than Spike :-)

I confess, however, that a lot of that is because the 'Spike iz fit' and 'Spuffy' fans put me off Spike in the same way as the 'Janto' (eurgh, what a horrible word!) have put me off Ianto.

Also, Angel came first. And he's tall, dark and handsome, which is my traditional crush-material :-)

Ahh, makes sense. I haven't read any Buffy fanfic so I've missed all that. Oops, didn't realize you didn't like Janto, *blushes* maybe you won't want to read my pwp then

With Buffy, actually it was more discussion on message boards than fanfic, though that was part of it.

Re. Jack/Ianto - I'll read (and enjoy) anything if it's well-written *g*

Can't quite guarantee that, but I tried anyway. I'll shoot it to you in an email within the hour.

I'll look forward to it :-)
