Another meme, because I remembered they're addicting.

1. I will post pictures within the next couple of days, time and weather permitting.

2. I have stolen a meme from [livejournal.com profile] demoneyeskyo87 and [livejournal.com profile] circles9. A character meme! An awesome character meme.


CHARACTER MEME

■ EIGHT CHARACTERS I LOVE:
01. Gokudera Hayato (Reborn) ARE YOU SURPRISED? I bet you were surprised.
02. Yamamoto Takeshi (Reborn)
03. Uchiha Sasuke (Naruto) though I am considering amending this with a 'pre-brainwashing-by-Madara' clause; SASUKE WHY YOU GOTTA DO THIS TO ME
04. James "Sawyer" Ford (LOST)
05. Wesley Wyndam-Price (Angel)
06. Zuko (Avatar: The Last Airbender)
07. Cordelia Chase (Angel)
08. Julian Bashir (Star Trek: Deep Space Nine), Light Yagami (Death Note), Miroku (Inuyasha), River Tam (Firefly), Kanou Taisuke (Alive: The Final Evolution), Nathaniel (The Bartimaeus Trilogy), Sawada Tsunayoshi (Reborn), Kikyou (Inuyasha), Miles Edgeworth (Ace Attorney), Mikura Kazuma (Air Gear), Minami Ikki (Air Gear), Peregrin "Pippin" Took (Lord of the Rings), Edward Elric (Fullmetal Alchemist), Kagura (Azumanga Daioh), Ron Weasley (Harry Potter), Travis Touchdown (No More Heroes), Benjamin Linus (LOST), Gregory House (House)... oh my God I have to stop before I list everyone ever.

■ FOUR CHARACTERS I'VE ABANDONED:
09. Xander Harris (Buffy the Vampire Slayer)
10. Kurosaki Ichigo (Bleach)
11. Ishida Yamato (Digimon)
12. Jacen Solo (Star Wars EU) god damn you, EU writers! GOD DAMN YOU

■ FOUR CHARACTERS I'VE NEVER LIKED:
13. Hyuuga Neji (Naruto)
14. James T. Kirk (Star Trek, pre-2009 film)
15. John Locke (LOST)
16. Ty Lee (Avatar: The Last Airbender)

■ FOUR CHARACTERS THAT HAVE PIQUED MY INTEREST:
17. Byakuran (Reborn) sob
18. Percy Jackson (Percy Jackson and the Olympians) I need to read more of this series
19. James T. Kirk (Star Trek, post-2009 film)
20. Kawahira (Reborn) WHAT HAPPENED TO YOU?


It's so much easier to think of characters I like than characters I don't. And even with the ones I dislike, it's more that I'm just indifferent to them. I can't think of a single character I actually hate. I TRIED, and my brain was just, "lol, no. If you like Byakuran, there's no hope for you." XD

08. Julian Bashir

But no love for plain, simple Garak? :(

FOUR CHARACTERS THAT HAVE PIQUED MY INTEREST:

17. Byakuran (Reborn) sob


Search your feelings, you know it to be true.

I LOVE GARAK TOO but, well, you saw how long my #8 was, come on. XDD (Although if I had included two DS9 characters, Quark probably would have been the other one. Um.)

BYAKURAN. FUCK THAT GUY. Why is it that the more dickish he is, the more I enjoy reading it?

[identity profile] escherichiacola.livejournal.com 2010-02-10 01:56 am (UTC)(link)
Why is it that the more dickish he is, the more I enjoy reading it?

He always has so much fun doing it. It's not even Xanxus dickishness which is out of anger or Reborn dickishness which is more out of pushing people to better themselves. It's a very Joker-ish "help an old lady cross the street then stab her just because you can" dickishness.

[identity profile] makeste.livejournal.com 2010-02-10 02:29 am (UTC)(link)
Huh; that's probably the best explanation I've read for Byakuran's mysterious appeal. THANK YOU FOR HELPING TO CLARIFY MY PECULIAR FONDNESS FOR THIS EVIL MAN.

[identity profile] smilypie.livejournal.com 2010-02-09 11:57 pm (UTC)(link)
Of course. Gokudera was the LAST person I expected on that list. Really.

Seriously, Kawahira needs to come back and do something already along with his boss, Longchamp.

Also: LOL, Ty lee.

[identity profile] makeste.livejournal.com 2010-02-10 01:04 am (UTC)(link)
Talk about an upset! Who could have seen it coming?

He really does; that has to have been the most random character entrance ever. I was really expecting him to show up again by now, and the longer it takes, the more random it gets.

Oh, Ty Lee. I dunno, we just never clicked.

[identity profile] smilypie.livejournal.com 2010-02-10 08:54 pm (UTC)(link)
Seriously! I know I couldn't have. Pretty shocking if I do say so myself

Yeah o.o I was expecting him to stay at least. And you're right about that, by the time he show up it's gonna be like "Wait, where'd this guy come from again?"

XD Maybe it was her over happy pink-ness?

[identity profile] demoneyeskyo87.livejournal.com 2010-02-10 12:37 am (UTC)(link)
Why I'm not surprised for your #1 but I approve of your #2, ;)

LOL but your #8 is probably much longer than my picks ;)

Where Gokudera goes, Yamamoto must follow. |D

HEY! Yours was pretty long too. XD

[identity profile] azartti.livejournal.com 2010-02-10 12:58 am (UTC)(link)
Kazu ♥ (btw Ikki's name is Itsuki)
Yamato why? D:
Does Percy Jackson books are good? I mean, I know shit next to nothing about them besides that there's a movie about him.

[identity profile] makeste.livejournal.com 2010-02-10 01:15 am (UTC)(link)
♥ (Yeah, I know, but to me he'll always just be Ikki; I'm so used to it that his full name just looks odd. XD WHICH I REALIZE IS KIND OF "WHAT" CONSIDERING I LISTED IT RIGHT AFTER "KAZUMA" BUT THAT'S JUST HOW IT IS.)

He is still and will forever be my Digimon 01 and 02 favorite! But it's just been such a long time since that the love has somewhat dwindled. I'm still fond of him, though; it was just really hard to come up with four people for that list.

They're all right. I read the first one and liked the characters and the premise (Greek gods really exist and have a bunch of half-blood kids who have modern-day ADVENTURES!!!), but I didn't like that I could predict every plot twist from a mile off (I've been spoiled by things like KHR and Lost XD). Still, for young adult fantasy, it's pretty enjoyable. I've got the second one sitting on my bookshelf now, but I haven't read it yet.

[identity profile] azartti.livejournal.com 2010-02-10 01:22 am (UTC)(link)
Lol, for me it's the other way. I tend to forget that it IS Kazuma and not just Kazu.

He is my favorite too. Aparently I have something wit the "emo" retarded best friends :|

Oh, sounds nice. I'm pretty dense with plots >.> but I'll try to get one :)

[identity profile] makeste.livejournal.com 2010-02-10 01:48 am (UTC)(link)
Kazu and Ikki sound better anyway. :P

I'll never forget the first time I saw "The Crest of Friendship" episode. THAT SINGLE EP HOOKED ME AND MADE ME A DIGIMON FAN FOR LIFE.

Heh, yeah, it's worth checking out at the very least, especially with the movie coming out.

[identity profile] rikasaurus.livejournal.com 2010-02-10 01:14 am (UTC)(link)
Holy crap, I thought you meant Kikyou from Reborn until I finished reading. THEN I WOULD HAVE BEEN DISAPPOINTED XD

AND YEAH WHAT HAPPENED TO KAWAHIRA? :(

/will probably steal this meme

[identity profile] makeste.livejournal.com 2010-02-10 01:18 am (UTC)(link)
I KINDA LIKE KIKYOU FROM REBORN TOO. >_>

I'M HALF STARTING TO BELIEVE THEY ALL JUST HALLUCINATED HIM.

Do it! 8D

[identity profile] rikasaurus.livejournal.com 2010-02-10 01:21 am (UTC)(link)
OH NO.

I'M--

I'M DISAPPOINT D:



I am doing it now as I reply to your comment 8Db

[identity profile] makeste.livejournal.com 2010-02-10 01:46 am (UTC)(link)
It's just... he's hilarious. :(

:D! *goes to seeeee*

[identity profile] teruame.livejournal.com 2010-02-10 01:23 am (UTC)(link)
03. Uchiha Sasuke (Naruto) though I am considering amending this with a 'pre-brainwashing-by-Madara' clause; SASUKE WHY YOU GOTTA DO THIS TO ME

;___; I was on this list...until Part 2 came out. T_T

[identity profile] makeste.livejournal.com 2010-02-10 01:44 am (UTC)(link)
The further along the Naruto manga gets, the more being a Sasuke fan becomes an exercise in masochism. And yet, I can't stop. He was my favorite for so long bawww Sasukeeeee why. ;_;

[identity profile] ekmisao.livejournal.com 2010-02-10 02:35 am (UTC)(link)
Percy's cool, I read the first book. ^^v

[identity profile] makeste.livejournal.com 2010-02-10 02:43 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, I like him. I'm looking forward to seeing what wacky half-god adventures he has in the rest of the series. :P

[identity profile] ojuzu.livejournal.com 2010-02-10 03:28 am (UTC)(link)
I . . agree with all of these, actually. Even the ones I've never heard of.

That's mostly why I just couldn't get back into Naruto after I stopped during the Chuunin exams. :( Damn you internet and your accurate spoilers. Sasuke come baaaack~

I had a moment where I thought of Kikyou with his dinosaurs before I was like "Wait -- other Kikyou." :D KAWAHIRA WHERE DID YOU GO And I think [livejournal.com profile] escherichiacola is right -- Byakuran is so the KHR-verse Joker. He distracts you with his smile and little music notes and really really incredibly gay innuendo and then BAM your head is in a jar on his desk while he laughs happily and sparkles. (Okay maybe he's not exactly the Joker. But still.)

I really need to read the rest of the Percy Jackson books. :|

[identity profile] makeste.livejournal.com 2010-02-10 04:04 am (UTC)(link)
PERHAPS WE ARE SOUL-TWINS. Or at least sharing the same brain or something. <3

Sasuke pre-timeskip was one of my favorite characters ever... is one of my favorites, actually. I hate what the last few years of plot have done to him. :( You haven't missed much that isn't depressing and/or dismaying.

Haha, for me it was the reverse back when KHR!Kikyou first showed up. I was in the Inuyasha fandom for so long that I can't help but associate the name with IY!Kikyou.

Like I said in one of the other comments, the longer we go without seeing Kawahira again, the more incredibly random his first appearance sees to me. WHAT WAS THE POINT?! XD And yeah, the Joker is a perfect fit. It's that gleeful, quirky sadism they both have.

I'll probably start on the second one soon. I'm curious to see where it all goes.

AWWW LOCKE IS AWESOME LOL LOL LOL.

[identity profile] makeste.livejournal.com 2010-02-10 04:48 pm (UTC)(link)
SOB I DUNNO, the guy just always annoyed me because he was always like, "THE ISLAND BROUGHT ME HERE FOR A REASON!! I KNOW WHAT I'M DOING!!" but in reality he barely had a clue and was pretty much just getting manipulated by everyone. HE COULD HAVE BEEN SO COOL but he kept letting Ben and Richard and his dad and everyone else play him. It made me sad. XD Oh Locke.

[identity profile] aroundight.livejournal.com 2010-02-10 07:36 am (UTC)(link)
ffffff I would totally have a #08 like yours. How am I supposed to choose only eight? This is an outrage!

And andandand... KIKYOU! Awww, I loved her and everyone hated her and they hated her for stupid, stupid reasons.


I want to do this meme, but I've been doing that thirty days meme and I feel like breaking up that meme with more memes would just meme out the world. IT CERTAINLY MEME'D OUT THAT SENTENCE. D:

[identity profile] makeste.livejournal.com 2010-02-10 04:59 pm (UTC)(link)
I totally based that on Kyo's meme; he cheated on #8 too. XD I couldn't figure out how to do it any other way, heh.

KIKYOU! I spent many an hour defending her back in my IY fandom days. I always liked her and it's not her fault Naraku screwed her over. :( Though at least she got a relatively peaceful ending.

LOL at the memey sentence. XD Well, you could always stick it in there with one of your 30 days posts and say that your memes are saving gas by carpooling? Or just wait until afterward, lol.

Julian Bashir is my all-time fave character. What a doll. Great meme. I'm going to borrow it for my journal. Thank you for sharing!

[identity profile] makeste.livejournal.com 2010-02-12 09:59 pm (UTC)(link)
He's easily one of my favorites too. <3 Have fun with the meme!
