double pretzel?

23 - 5 favorite characters from 5 different fandoms.

- Avengers (movieverse): totally a tie between Bruce and Tony. Bruce because he's just. Bruce. I want to cuddle him and make him cookies and hot chocolate and run my fingers through his hair and let him know that he'll never be alone. Tony because I just want to pet his furry face and cheerlead for him when he does something technologically brilliant. Not because he needs it (or, maybe he does, who knows) but because he deserves it. Idk what it is that makes them bring out all my fierce mama bear tendencies but I'm going with it.

- Inception: Eames, but not fanon!Eames. Fanon Eames is a playboy and a flirt while movie!Eames... is not exactly that. I always get the feeling every time I watch that Eames is a lot quieter a character than fandom seems to think he is. (Not that I don't enjoy fanon!Eames, it just doesn't always ring true to me.)

- Naruto: Kakashi. Lazy genius, I wish that could be me. lol Kakashi is mysterious and cool but he's a total pervert at heart and while this series has many of them (perverts, that is) Kakashi is my favorite. He's a total badass who just gets so much whump while at the same time being into pervy things. I mean, he reads porn. I read porn (occasionally...). It's a thing, I feel kinship. It's just meant to be.

- Marvel Comics: Deadpool. Obvious choice may be obvious but the fact of the matter is, all jokes aside, Deadpool is a truly complex character. Boy's got feelings under that there spandex. He's not just a punchline. You see it more in the early issues that came before it got turned into "situational Deadpool" (DP in SPACE, DP with Vampires, DP in a Loony Bin, DP vs Osborn, etc) which, I feel, are more about the "situation" Wade is placed than it is about the character. That whole arc in DP Classic about him wanting to be a good guy and battling against the fact that it was easier not to? That's what made me fall in love. (There was one issue, which I can't remember atm but he was talking to Spidey and the subject of what makes Spidey a superhero and what makes DP not a superhero even when he was doing "good things" comes up and Spidey says something along the lines of: he's a superhero because he just is, it's in his nature, it's not something he even has to think about but DP wasn't one because he didn't want to be good for good's sake, he wanted to be good so people would notice that he was good. Or something like that. But that was a great moment.)

- Mass Effect (series): Liara T'Soni. Because she grows as a character over the course of the series in a way that is so. damn. beautiful. She's the nosy, bookworm in the first game, all big doe eyes with a schoolgirl crush and she looks at the world as if she's seeing it for the first time. I hated her at first because she was typical dudebait. Some "hot, nerdy girl" for the fanboys to fall all over but then she grew into something else the second game and grew even more in the third and I realized that she was so much more than I thought. Amazing character growth is amazing.


Also, Idk if you've read my "intro" post or not, but if you did, then you'd know (or probably not since I just added that bit but oh well) I have a tendency to ramble. You just caught me on one of those days. /o\
