*waves*
Hey all. In case any of you were wondering, I vanished for five days to go down to Kumori Con and visit pzb. (Con report to follow, when I... want to actually write coherently, instead of just meme-ing.) I had a fabulous time, except for the train ride back (it took fourteen hours from the Amtrack station in Eugene to my house - to give you perspective, I can go from Eugene to Bellingham -which is further away than my hometown- in eight hours HITTING TRAFFIC IN PORTLAND, TACOMA AND SEATTLE.)
So, now, last friday's fannish5
fannish5:
Name 5 characters you think are often misunderstood by fans.
1.) Katara. The people who think she's a vicious, irrational bitch are the worst, but I'm not pleased with the people who treat her like a perfect sweet healer girl who can do no wrong.
2.) Uchiha Itachi. (To be fair, I think 3/4 of the problem is caused by Kishimoto). Look, fans, I don't care how pretty he is. He killed. his. entire. family. and then emotionally tortured his little brother and oh let's not forget about when he TORTURED KAKASHI FOR FORTY-EIGHT HOURS IN KAKASHI'S HEAD.
(I'd add in Sakura, except that if I don't read fics who don't treat her better than Kishimoto does.)
3.) Inara. I think most of the people who call her boring aren't paying attention.
4.) Toph. You love her? Fine. But don't act like she's perfect and made of pure awesome. (Again, I think the creators are to blame for a lot of this.)
5.) Jareth. Is not a fluffy little elf boyfriend. He is hot like burning, though.
