A meme, stolen in the usual fashion

[thisbluespirit]

Because why not? And I am still extra tired. (Though I really do have hopes of tomorrow now. Or the day after at least. *sigh*) Hopefully this will be in my capabilities and prove cheering! Memed from various flisters:

Name a character in any of my fandoms, and I'll answer these questions:

1. Do you love/hate/don’t feel strongly about this character?
2. What’s your favorite trait of this character?
3. What’s your favorite moment/event involving this character?
4. If you could have one power/attribute/etc. of this character, what would it be?
5. Have you ever pictured this character naked?
6. When did you fall in love/hate with this character? If you don’t have any strong feelings toward them, why not?
7. Who’s your OTP for this character, if any?

My answer to 5 is in almost any case I can think of, a resounding: "No, I go to great lengths not to! People should have clothes on!! Clothes are good." or "Yes, *sob* can I have the brain bleach, please?" (Yes. I know. I'm v strange, sorry.) So if anyone wants an alternate question for that, feel free to give me one.

1. Oh, yes, I like Avon. Like probably isn't exactly the word, but yes.
2. All Avon's traits are pretty bad, really, it's the combination of them that works. Or, no, his epic snarkiness is wonderful.
3. Every he says something snarky? That's a cop out, but then, there are a lot of great Avon moments. That makes it hard.
4. Not wishing to get boring, but a snarky insult for every occasion could come in handy. Or being a computer genius, actually. Except, would he know enough about 21st C tech for that to be useful to me?
6. I liked Avon pretty rapidly, I think. I know that by S4 he and Vila were in a war as to who would be my favourite character. (Vila won, thanks to Orbit.)
7. Avon/Everyone. Avon/Blake is the one true obsession, but I'm not sure that's the same thing as an OTP, or not the way I go about anyway. Or Avon/Nearly Everyone, because I do have some limits. Avon/Orac also. Oh, and Avon/Servalan are scary but entertaining. Avon/Everyone, as I said. :-)

Yes... I remember there was someone on the old mailing lists who kept a list (as far as she could) of all the pairing in fanzines and Avon not only Got More than pretty much everyone else combined, he got to do it with literally everyone :)

Liking B7 slash/erotica and not liking Avon would have been difficult, methinks (but I only knew one person who didn't like him, so...)

I stumbled over someone's fandom_stocking where they were listing B7 pairings and ended up at "Oh, Avon/Everyone..." :-) And, once I thought about it, I had to agree. (And write jokey Avon/Everyone-except-Vila for them.) But then, I have a terrible habit of not taking pairings too seriously, especially in B7. *looks guilty*

Liking B7 slash/erotica and not liking Avon would have been difficult,

Liking any sort of B7 erotica, save femslash, would be awkward, really. (Unless the femslash is all genderswapped!Avon/Everyone. It probably is. :lol:)

It can get difficult to take some of them seriously (I mean, he never even met Jarriere or Og!!!!! OTOH, I did once see Dayna/Gan, which takes some timey-wimey brainbreaking...)

I mean, he never even met Jarriere or Og!!!!!

I think maybe with those pairings a long distance relationship might be the only answer. :lol:
