Date: 2009-08-10 07:00 pm (UTC)top 5 favorite RP Characters:
OC- Mr. Andrew Cole. Hands down. The barstad has dug deep into my heart.
Jack Dalliard. believe it or not. He's...constant. Others may weave in and out of character, but Jack always remains a constant. Even in his most AU/OOC, the plot can always justify his actions.
Abigail Marks- Always a source of light and hope, the innocence of childhood. No reason to lie, pure judge of character. I mean, she's even got her own...whatsit. "Abby Therapy."
Which leads me to...The Assistant. Azzant. Azzant. Azzant. Are there any words for him? Whether flying solo, on the Dark Side or Good Side, he's just... Azzant. But Azzant with Abby (and Sam)...pure perfection
C2- need i say more? C2 as matchmaker, C2 with Neddy, C2..anytime, anywhere.

I don't think a worse '5' could have been asked, if you'll pardon me. Never had a favorite, never will. Apples to Oranges. It reminds me of the question my dad used to ask before wising up. "On a scale of one to ten..how was it?" But..i'll.. try. Maybe not faves...but...erk..
1) Aida
2) The Producers
*flailing* I can't do ittt!
4) The Lion King
5) Footloose.
Fine. 5 OF my favorites. No order..just..i CAN'TTTT
5 Favorite Jack Harkness Moments
1) Countryside and Jack's tractor rescue- It's raw, it's unrestrained, and it's a glimpse into who Jack *was*, once upon a time. He was pissed, his 'family' had been messed with, compromised. There was no thinking, no logic. Say Hello To My Little Friend. BANGBANGBANGBANGBANGBANGBANGBANGBANGBANGBANGBANGBANG
alot of my faves coincide with Jack+Team, really.
2) 'Adam'- When the team is sitting in the boardroom before being retconned, speaking/thinking their thoughts, their regrets, and how Jack responds to each of them in turn. Owen's part was my unravelling, then hand Jack puts on his shoulder...and Ianto. But. That's just...a given.
3) Pre-Torchwood Jack. Doctor Who Jack...because he's so essential for the setup for the TW series. He's careless, he's arrogant. He looks out for himself, without too much thought for others. And he knows it. He told the Doctor he was better off a coward, but it's seeing DW Jack, then how we know him as Cap'n Jack in TW that's just...i dunno. Gets you.
4) Jack with Martha Jones. The End of the World Survivor Club. Not only doe Jack adore Martha, they have a (very) common bond. The Doctor. They survived the end of the world together, had both- in one way or another- been burned by the Doctor, but still have the same awe, respect, and love for him. Being burned by the Doctor led them to lead productive, better lives. Jack and Torchwood, Martha with UNIT and moving on, getting married. Both grew up. Their rapport always makes me smile, knowing each other, being able to call the other's bluff and bullshit. I didn't..expect to write so much on them.
5) Finally, possible spoiler central. Well, maybe, but i'm a nice person like that. TW: Children of Earth. Scroll down if you've seen it, or care to be spoiled if you havent

Torchwood: Children of Earth. Jack Harkness. If there was ever a way to wrap Jack into a neat little box (yeah, right.) it would be COE. Not any particular favorite moment...but...
We see Jack as he's always been: flirty, cocky, tortured, vulnerable, bad ass, naked. You name it. That Jack was there. We see *Jack* from the highest of highs, to the lowest of lows. Every element of Jack since his introduction in Doctor Who was there.
Every emotion, every quirk, every nuance. COE might as well have been
Captain Jack Harkness: An Emotional Biography.
From his past with the 456. His relationships. Ianto, Alice, Steven. Seeing Jack, Ianto and Gwen working as 'two guys and a girl' sort of thing. The darkness, the light, the tragedy. Victory and Failure. Being blown up to itty bitty Jackbits.
I'm stopping, seriously. Before i go on. I forgot this was a meme...stopping now. NOW

Date: 2009-08-10 08:12 pm (UTC)THANK GOD. I worry about my characterization of everyone, so it's reallyreallyreally good to hear that he's still IC. Even when AUized.
Which leads me to...The Assistant. Azzant. Azzant. Azzant. Are there any words for him? Whether flying solo, on the Dark Side or Good Side, he's just... Azzant. But Azzant with Abby (and Sam)...pure perfection
He was awesome, and then he met Abby. Abby really brought him out, and into being an excellent character. There would be no Azzant without Abby. (and Sam, can't forget Sam) He's so much fun to write, too.
