The Reduced Fandom Meme Company presents...

byslantedlight...a meme that's supposed to be doable because everyone has more than one fandom, right? Except... I don't. Just Pros. *hugs Pros* I had a lovely holiday with Torchwood, but I've certainly never been in the fandom. So I thought it might be interesting to try this anyway... *g*
01. The first character I fell in love with: Doyle - when I was first watching as a young, innocent teenager... *g*
02. The character I never expected to love as much as I do now: Bodie (he grew on me... *g*)
03. The character everyone else loves that I don't: Bodie. Okay, not true! But much as I love him, almost everyone else seems to luuuuuuuurve him, and I just want him to love Doyle. In any way he fancies. *g*
04. The character I love that everyone else hates: Benny! I think he's fab, and no one else seems to pay him the slightest attention!
05. The character I used to love but don't any longer: Erm... none of them, I don't think... I still love all the same ones I've loved - but more. *g*
06. The character I would shag anytime: See... either of the lads, obviously. Both of the lads? And then they could also... together... and... see, it'd be research... *g*
07. The character I'd want to be like: Hmmn! See, we don't really know enough about other characters for this, and would I want to be like either of the lads? Bits of both of them... I like that Doyle's thinky, and I like that Bodie's chilled out... Erm... I'd say Susan perhaps, except I never want to choose those glasses... She's pretty good though... *g*
08. The character I'd slap: Both of the lads, on occasion... *g* Any female agent who simpers...
09. A pairing that I love: Do you need to ask?
10. A pairing that I hate: Cowley/anyone
11. Favorite character: B/D *g*
12. My five favorite characters: Bodie, Doyle, Benny, Jax... erm... Marge Harper?
13. My five least favorite characters: Murphy, erm... I can't think of any I dislike, except for the ones that I'm meant to dislike... but then I like them for being dislikable characters... I don't think that's what the meme's really after, mind, do you? *g*
14. Which character I am most like: Erm... um... Oh gawd, no idea. You tell me. *g*
15. My deep, dark fandom secret: I don't think I have any, I think I'm too noisy... *g*

Exactly! That's exactly what I like too!
Do you really dislike Murphy, or the fact that he's been overused as the default "other agent"? *g*
Lol - no, I don't actively dislike him as such, as I mentioned above, but I see nothing to really like about him either - he just seems incredibly, incredibly bland to me - nothing like the spark of Benny, or the likable bonhomie of Jax, or... oh, Matthesson and King, or Thingie and McCabe, or Stuart! There are just so many more other-agents with so much more character - it seems odd to me that everyone seems to go ga-ga for Murphy! And from all of that I think he's totally overused in fanfic! *g*
