Meme snurched from xfirefly9x.

List 10 tv shows/movies/books
-- Have your friends guess your favourite characters from each one.
-- Cross out the show/movie/book and put the character in when someone guesses.

Oh, why not? Some earthshatteringly easy and some hard, because again, why not?

1-Star Trek (whatever series you want to guess for, and I'll tell you if you're right - TNG (Riker) has been guessed by lemonpiefirefly - still leaves four series to go if we want to cheat the meme a bit - and I'm game for that. poisonyoulove added Spock from TOS and Janeway from VOY. sonria added Trip from ENT because TRIP! That leaves DS9 - hard!).
2-The X-Files (Scully, lemonpiefirefly)
3-Arrow (Felicity, xfirefly9x)
4-Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. (May, lolmac)
5-Farscape (Aeryn, xfirefly9x)
6-Babylon 5
7-Stargate Atlantis (Carson, lemonpiefirefly)
8-Star Wars (Luke, lolmac)
9-Talespin (Kit Cloudkicker, taj_mahal07)
10-Harry Potter (Luna, poisonyoulove)

18 - Favorite Duo/Friendship

In light of something I've just written tonight, this is an ironic question. You'll see why later, but for now, suffice to say that said piece of writing details much about a certain Skywalker and why I love him more than a certain Solo. It's ironic that I wrote that tonight and am answering this question now because Luke and Han are my favorite duo by a long shot. Yes, Han and Chewie are wonderful, but nothing beats Han and Luke for me. I love Luke's journey from "boy" to "Luke" to "buddy" in Star Wars, and "That's right, and my friend's out in it!" gets me every time in Empire. And Luke's rescue of Han in Jedi, with its subsequent snarky dialogue, just fills me with glee. These two are opposite sides of the same coin, and they come together to form the whole perfectly. Chewie, to me, is probably a lot like Luke in that he is Han's conscience. (Do you really think Han came back to Yavin on his own? Yeah, I've never believed that for a second. Give Chewbacca a medal!) However, we don't really get to know that due to Chewie's limited vocal communication, and we come into that friendship when it's already formed. We don't get to see the journey, like we do with Luke and Han, and that journey is worth its weight, my friends. Also, I think Han and Chewie are a more alike than different. Sure, Chewie is Han's conscience, but he's also still a smuggler and he owes Han a life debt, so he's bound to Han in a way that is different than pure friendship. Not so with Luke. Luke and Han forge their bond on their own, and it's a beautiful thing. So, for me, it's Han and Luke all the way. No question.

16 - Favorite Villain

Is this a trick question? Because, I mean, seriously. Got to go with "the blackest brother in the galaxy." I'll spell it out, in case you somehow can't figure out that description, but seriously? Yeah.

Darth Vader.

14 - A moment that breaks your heart

Well, this be the one that makes me reach for the EU. Honestly, there isn't a moment in the OT (or the PT, either, for that matter) that I would describe as heartbreaking. Heart stretching, perhaps, but there's just no rending there for me.

But when Mara Jade is forced to destroy the Jade's Fire, the only thing she's ever really owned in her life, I grieved with her. I remember reading this scene like it was yesterday, and I'm not ashamed to admit I cried for that ship... and for Mara.
