I snagged this meme from sheryden

Pick a character and I will give and explain the top three ideas/concepts/etc I keep in mind while writing that character that I believe are essential to accurately depicting them.

Obviously it would be best to stick to the fandoms and characters I actually write :)

Joshua from V. :)

[meridian_rose]

Hmm, I think I've written Joshua just once, though it was a character piece, so let's see...(season one Joshua here for me, obviously)

1) He's playing a dangerous game, being undercover Fifth Column. One misstep could lead to his death; but he's brave enough to overcome any fear
2) He has faith; that is, he believes so strongly in what he's doing that he'll risk all, betray his own kind for what he believes to be right - and even sacrifice himself for the cause
3) He's intelligent. He's a valuable asset to Anna (and therefore to the rebellion) and he thinks about things, taking calculated risks, and tampering with V technology when he can.

Lisa from V!

[meridian_rose]

I don't write her that often, but when I do I think about: (season one Lisa here, obviously, for me)

1) her relationship with her mother; how she's still under Anna's control in many ways, but has her eye on replacing Anna as Queen some day and changing all the rules. And how she must compare it with what it would be like to have Erica as a mother.
2) her conflicts; she's a V with human emotion, a young woman still growing and struggling with her adolescence, someone who's trying to sort out how much she cares about Tyler and how much is just part of Anna's mission for her
3) her potential; she could be everyone's saviour if she plays it right, and Joshua's reverent "My Queen" and her ability to fool Anna bodes well in that respect
