To those of you who are awake:

[trinityofone]

I am currently responding to fic comments like a good (repentant) LJer, but I need something to distract me every once in a while or my brain will atrophy. So here's a little participatory meme-thingy (snagged from boysnoggage):

1. Post a list of up to 20 books/movies/anime/TV shows/video games/etc. that you've had an obsessive fannish love of at some time in your life.
2. Have your friends list guess your favourite character from each item.

1. Stargate: Atlantis - Rodney McKay (wychwood)
2. Buffy the Vampire Slayer - Spike (ilgattopardo)
3. Angel the Series - Wesley Wyndam-Pryce (wychwood)
4. The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy - Ford Prefect (wychwood)
5. The Chronicles of Narnia - Edmund Pevensie (soupytwist)
6. The X-Files - Fox Mulder (wychwood)
7. Star Wars - Han Solo (ilgattopardo)
8. Good Omens - Crowley (wychwood)
9. Neverwhere - Richard Mayhew (wychwood)
10. The Aubrey/Maturin Books - Stephen Maturin (wychwood)
11. His Dark Materials - Will Parry (wychwood)
12. Preacher - Cassidy (smittywing)
13. Sandman - Hob Gadling (20thcenturyvole)
14. Red Dwarf - Arnold Rimmer (20thcenturyvole)
15. The Dark Tower - Eddie Dean (soupytwist)
16. Queer as Folk (US) - Brian Kinney (godofwine)
17. Calvin and Hobbes - Hobbes (wychwood)
18. Veronica Mars - Logan Echolls (wychwood)
19. X-Men - Wolverine (ilgattopardo)
20. The Legendary Lymond Chronicles - Francis Crawford of Lymond (siegeofangels)

ETA: Oh, God. I just realized something terrible about the answers to this meme. Let me know if you catch it, too. *is a horrible person*
ETA2: jarsy got it: They're all men. That...says some interesting things, doesn't it? *hangs head in SHAME*
ETA3: Done! Good work, people! I may be a misogynist bastard, but at least I have smart friends! *vbeg*

Or! Tell me stuff! Ask me questions! Entertaaaaaaaain me!

[/patheticness] <--Oh, who am I kidding? Like that ever really ends.

I am so lazy, what is the terrible thing about the answers? Whom you fancy? And did I mention that just like the doctor in "My Hero" I am always here?

I did a real nifty quiz about my fandom loves a few months back, and my friends all failed it horribly.

Hey, you have good taste in fandoms :) And ahaha, I'm totally making up these guesses.

1. Stargate: Atlantis - Rodney McKay
2. Buffy the Vampire Slayer - Anya?
4. The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy - Ford?
8. Good Omens - Crowley?
9. Neverwhere - The Marquis de Carabas?
10. The Aubrey/Maturin Books - Maturin?
13. Sandman - Death?
19. X-Men - Magneto?

...I got nothing *g*

I just have to say yay for X-Files, which was, like, ground zero for my fannish indoctrination. *mixes metaphors* :)

I am completely unfamiliar with most of those fandoms so I won't attempt to guess.

But where's the fic commentary you promised? I love commentary. More of my flist should do commentaries. I read them at work when I'm procrastinating.

Here we are now: entertain us!

I'm awake! (Funnily enough...)

I've never read/seen/heard of nos. 8-20, so I'm skipping them; as for the rest:
1. Father Dougal
2. Would it perhaps be Spike? :-)
3. See no. 2
4. I'll resist my instinct to say Marvin, since that's just me projecting, and guess (given your Anglophilia) Arthur Dent
5. Aha! Reepicheep! (Crap, I can't even remember how to spell it!) Or Puddleglum...
6. Actually I never watched it
7. Han Solo?

[20thcenturyvole.livejournal.com]

*guesses horribly*

His Dark Materiels: Lee Scoresby?
Preacher: Umm... whatshisname! The... bad guy with the big spider-like scar all over his face who is alternately sinister and hilarious! It's gotta be him.
Sandman: Delirium? Or Hob Gadling? Wait, are two guesses allowed?
Red Dwarf: Rimmer!

All guesses based on the assumption that, given previous answers, you like the sarcastic wierdos.

Edmund! :D *is all pleased with self*

And I am guessing Roland in the Dark Tower. Although Eddie (or possibly Jake)... hmm. Actually I think I change my guess to Eddie. I don't know!

[smittywing.livejournal.com]

Of the three left I only know two. I'll guess Cassidy from Preacher. (Although if it were Jesse Custer that would explain your strange need to put John in priest's clothes. ;)

And Queer as Folk...Michael? The dude had a comic book store, how can you not love Michael best? (I admit, Brian and his pill-popping, self-and-other-destructive ways was attractive...)

Am I the only one who knows the Lymond Chronicles?

I'm going to guess Lymond himself, because there seems to be an underlying theme of snark here, and because he's Lymond and everyone either loves or hates him.

Dude, Brian Hotass Kinney should be everyone's favourite for QAF. Because he's BRIAN KINNEY. I'm just saying.
