I will ask you 5 questions.
Answer them in a LJ post and interview your flisters!
shadadukal asked:
1. Who is your favorite character in Star Wars and why?
Um...tough choice. The obvious answer is Jaina Solo. And I really do love Jaina. Particularly through the YJK and the NJO eras. After that I think that Jaina got pushed to the back a little. Her character was sort of discarded and just brought back when it was convenient. The back and forth with Jag and Zekk I think they played with that too long, until it sort of started to hurt Jaina as a character. I don't care if she wasn't with Jag, but Mara made the point that Jaina was acting like a teenager about it and she was. I think it would have been more true to the character...well I think she'd already grown past that.
Then there's Mara. I think Mara would have to be my absolute favorite. She was bad...sorta and then she was good. But when she was good she never lost that essential part of herself into being a Jedi like I think Luke did. Fett said that Jaina couldn't understand because she was a Jedi and automatically lost some of that innate humanity, but I think that Mara would have still gotten it too or maybe more completely than Jaina even. So yeah...much love for Mara there too.
2. Why do you like femslash?
Because girls are hot with other girls? It feels like a shallow answer and I guess it is, but it is kinda true also. I guess I always liked to see more in depth relationships between women in fics, especially fan fiction and femslash does that a lot. I think in a lot of ways femslash isn't just about romance between women, although it is, but it can also just be about the way that women relate to women without having it center on men, and I think that's an area that doesn't get explored enough in more general types of fan fiction.
3. If you could live anywhere you liked in the world, without money being an issue, where would you go?
NYC, baby. I've always said that I'd love to live there for a couple of years. Not very long. I think the small spaces, the crush of people and the fast pace would get to me eventually but I'd love to live there for a few years just for the opportunity. The cultures, the choices, the freedom. It's not the right word, but in a city like that you don't have to worry so much about being confined by small town values. True, you don't have the small town benefits where everyone knows you and cares about you, but at the same time everyone doesn't know you and get all up in your shit all the time! Bonus! So yeah, NYC.
4. What's your dream job? ;)
Job? I'm supposed to dream about earning a living? :p I joke. But...um...writer maybe? I don't know. I liked jobs that keep me very phyisically active. I thought about being a flight attendant once.
5. This is one that
aruna7 asked me and I thought it was pretty cool. If you could live the rest of your life with a character, who would you choose and why?
Ashley Davies from South of Nowhere. Okay, I know that sounds random, but...these crazy characters that are in all kinds of life threatening situations sound cool and all, but to actually live with them, I'd want someone saner and in less of a life endangering thing. Ash is quite hot, enough of a bad girl not to be boring, but not too crazy either mostly. And very sweet and funny in her own way. So...yeah.
