"Choose five series fandoms (no peeking before you choose them), list them, and then answer the questions behind the cut."
My Five
1 V (2009)
2 Legend of the Seeker
3 Psych
4 Burn Notice
5 Firefly
1. Which is your favourite series from your list? And why?
Firefly, at a push, given the "value for money" factor of a short lived series that has given me a lot of pleasure.
2. If you were to pair two characters from 1 and 4, who would they be?
Kyle Hobbes and Fiona Glennanne. This is a match made in heaven. He's British, she's Irish, and they both love to blow shit up. Violence is Fiona's idea of foreplay (pretty much an actual quote from "Burn Notice). In fact her on/off boyfriend Michael Westen is basically an American Hobbes with a taste for Armani.
Witness how Fiona treats Michael:
And how Erica treats Hobbes:
Violence is totally on par with "I love you" for Fiona and after spending time with Erica, Hobbes totally appreciates that :D
3. What is one thing you’d like to change about 3’s plot line?
Nothing, really. The set up works great for me. I'd like Shawn to come up against a real physic just once though. It would drive him crazy.
4. If both main characters of 2 and 5 were falling off a cliff, which one would you save?
Richard and Mal
They both tend to survive stuff. But let's say Mal because Cara can totally bring Richard back to life. I've lost count of the number of times almost everyone in LotS has died and been resurrected. Falling off a cliff is all in a day's work for Richard.
5. Which event was the most horrible for you in 1?
The events of "Red Sky" do not bode well. The character dynamics will be changed by this.
6. Which is your least favourite character of 2?
General Egremont (minor characters count, yes?)
7. If the antagonist of 3 were to rape the main character of 1, what would you do?
That's a pretty horrible question. I'm not even sure who is the antagonist in Psych; I'm guessing Lassiter since he is up against Shawn. And the idea of the straight laced Lassiter raping anyone is pretty out there. And he'd never manage it because Erica Evans kills aliens with picture frames.
8. What song reminds you of 5?
The theme, obviously, and the filk "Mal's Song", plus certain country songs which draw on the same instruments and tempo. And "Seven Drunken Pirates" by Flogging Molly thanks to this video
9. Of 1, 3, and 5, which is the easiest to think about?
V has taken over my life right now. I've never had the urge to write so much smutty fic in my life.
10. Are the protagonists of 2 and 4 similar?
Richard Cypher and Michael Westen? No. Westen's an antihero where Richard is a Hero with a capital "h". Cara and Fiona share some similarities though :D
