essbeejay | I'll charm the chicks! - Hey, are those things real? Ha!

You can always tell when sbj's rl is less crazy because then I'm here, wasting not only my time, but everyone else's.

Hey there was a meme I totally forgot to mention yesterday! But whatevs, I'm doing it now and I totally stole it from somebody awesome (

juxtaposie).

Comment with the name of a female character and I'll tell you why I love her.

Since this lj is pretty much exclusively PpG and that isn't fair, here is a list off the very tip top of my head of female characters I love/have loved unfailingly in my fannish lifetime. (Besides the obvious, of course.)

Toph (Avatar - not that shit movie, mind you)
Mizuno Ami/Sailor Mercury (DUH)
Tiffany Aching (from The Wee Free Men series/Pratchett's Discworld universe)
Granny Weatherwax (Discworld universe)
Zoe (FIREFLYYYYY)
Daria Morgendorffer (MTV's Daria)
Hiiragi Kagami (Lucky Star - I fucking LOVE this girl)
Kanzaki Hitomi (Vision of Escaflowne)
Lola Bunny (Space Jam YEAH I'M FUCKING SERIOUS)
Liz Lemon (30 Rock)
Susan (Death's Granddaughter from the Discworld universe)
Midori (Murakami's novel Norwegian Wood)
Sawachika Eri (School Rumble)
Takano Akira (School Rumble)
Nagato Yuki (Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya)

What the fuck, why is there so much anime/manga on this list D: I keep going through things I love in my head, but then I'm all Oh wait, my favorite character in that one is male, so damn... which, interestingly enough, most of my favorite characters in western animation are male characters. Maybe there is an interesting reason behind this...

There are probably about 8 bajillion more that I cannot remember for the fucking life of me, so if someone occurs to you that I might like try asking and I'll see what I have to say :B

*Rolls on the floor laughing* You crack me up, seriously. I love the way your mind works!

I guess you're right when it comes the whole Maiko thing. Zuko did have a lot of emo moments and needed a good bitch slap. I can't tell you how many times I was ready to pull out my hair and shake the guy...or punch the crap out of him for it. You are actually the first Maiko fan that has made me sit there and nod my head in agreement. I suppose, coming from that perspective, I can see how Maiko works. Still favor Zutara over it, though, but I can see it now.

I'm a dork because I never saw the Tokka thing until it was too late XD For me, one moment Toph cared less about Sokka and the next moment she's crushing on him. I'm blind like that (and that is why I have glasses!). Tokka actually comes in fourth place in Sokka pairings. I was a big Suki/Sokka fan during the Kyoshi Warriors episode, so that's been a favorite for awhile. Then I (kind-of/sort-of) fell in love with the Yuokka pairing because of its tragic end (the start was too Romeo and Juliet for me, but the ending between them was ten times better than what Shakespeare wrote, haha). Finally, I kind of like Ty Lee/Sokka because of the giggle factor. By the time I already established those couples, the Toph/Sokka came out of nowhere for me XD. Truth be told, I like an unrequited Tokka - with Toph doing the pining.

(Continued because I suffer from dorkitis)
