This is in no way a respectable book blog but I don't think it matters - at least I hope it doesn't.

This meme is hosted by Anna at The Weekly Enthusiast.

1. CHLOE SULLIVAN-QUEEN (from Smallville)

Chloe was definitely a major reason why I got into Smallville only when it *ended* (because The New Adventures of Lois and Clark will forever and *always* remain my first beloved Superman show and I want nothing to take its place, but Smallville might up up there with it as my fave show about Superman/Clark). She's just so AWESOME AND BAMF AND I JUST WANT TO BE LIKE HER AND I WANT HER TO BE REAL DAMN IT WHY ISN'T SHE REAL *SOBBBING*

2. ZUKO (from Avatar: the Last Airbender)

I can't articulate very well why I love Zuko except to say that I love his journey in AtLA; I love what kind of a person he becomes by the end, how very complex his character was. (I didn't like him very much at the beginning but mid-s2 or something like that, I found myself becoming very sympathetic to him and by s3 I was completely smitten by him.)

3. BURTON GUSTER (from Psych)

I can't explain my love for Gus without descending into a squealing mass of incoherence and blubbering. I just - he's AWESOME. OK? Trust me, if you hate Gus, then there is seriously something wrong with you.

4. MYKA BERING (from Warehouse 13)

I think while I've talked about loving EVERY FREAKING CHARACTER that comes through WH13, the one character that I *both* adore to pieces and find myself relating to the most is Myka. And we all like seeing ourselves in fictional characters.

5. STEFAN SALVATORE (from The Vampire Diaries)

This show is...ridiculous at times. In good and bad ways. And I have a lot of ~feelings about it. But the one thing I will always know is that Stefan Salvatore is VERY AWESOME AND MY FAVORITEST (with Damon and Caroline and Bonnie and Elena and Jeremy and Rebekah and Tyler as my other favorites).

So I finished marathon-ing two whole seasons of Warehouse 13 plus the three episodes of s3 I saw when SyFy had their marathon last Friday. Once I can get a hold of season three, I'll watch that from the beginning too but so far Netflix doesn't have s3 (yet - blahhh). But I'm so proud of myself for getting through these two seasons in just one whole week! That never happens to me. I catch up on TV kinda like a turtle would catch up on races.

I'm also psyched that it's getting a fourth season.

Of course the minute I was (semi) caught up, I started plotting fic. A Steve Jinks/Joshua Donovan fic. I don't even know. I just know I need more of them in my life.

And I rewatched recently s4 of another show I used to love once when it was on the air a few years ago, Wildfire. It made me think up (and write down about 1,000 or so words for mini_nanowrimo) of a Wildfire/Batman fusion fic in which Jason Todd = Kris Furillo's character, essentially. This is a story I'd really like to do, but it's a bit of an overwhelming project at the moment, mostly because I don't have any recollection of past seasons. I think this might be because I started watching late into s3 and never caught up and so am now tasked with watching the earlier seasons for the first time.

So many of the characters in Wildfire can translate quite easily into Batman characters too - well, maybe I'm exaggerating; only Jason's character can possibly translate over to the other universe while with the other characters, you might need to take some liberties.

And I just now realized: Kris Furillo is played by Genevieve Padalecki (née Cortese) who's married to Jared Padalecki (and she also played Ruby in Supernatural too) who plays Sam Winchester to Jensen Ackles' Dean Winchester in Supernatural WHO VOICED JASON TODD IN THE ANIMATED MOVIE, BATMAN: UNDER THE RED HOOD.

Six degrees of fandom, MY MIND, IT IS BLOWN.
