Oh My God A fannish5 From This Week! On The Friday In Question To Boot!

[redbrunja]

 Are you all super-excited? (audience yawns)*

Name the five most loving fictional moms.

5.) Katara. Yes, she's not an official mom, yet, but she basically raised her brother, guided the avatar, and helped birth a baby in a dirt hut. I think she qualifies.

4.) Trisha Elric (I was tempted to put Izumi, but while I think Trisha was probably a much more affectionate mother).

3.) Inara. I know a pregnancy would most likely be a career ender for her and she likely has about six different methods of prevention going, but I think she would be very loving with a child.

2.) Paige Winterbourne. Ah, Paige. My favorite Women of the Otherworld. Geek, witch, and she took in a black witch's child because that was what her mother would have done and didn't back off from that choice even when it cost her the coven she'd been raised to lead. She also makes sure her foster-daughter has a snack ready for her every day when she gets home from school.

1.) Lorelai Gilmore. 'Nuff said.

*I'm sick and have  no appetite, you're just going to have expect a little weirdness from me right now.

5 and 1: YES.

What can I say? I speak the truth.

I really wanted to do this meme, but realized that a lot of people's moms were FRIDGED. >8O

Word on Katara and Lorelai. I thought of Trisha, too, but I didn't see enough of the character to really judge. I was thinking Mrs. Incredible, though! She was pretty win.

I know. One of the rules I had for myself was no dead mom's. And yes, Trisha applied, but I think we saw enough of her to get a good idea of her as a mother, but yeah, she is a borderline fridge case.

I was thinking Mrs. Incredible, though! She was pretty win.

Definitely Ms Incredible! She was epic one. My favorite scene of her in that whole movie is when she's flying the plane. Best scene in the film, hands down.
