Meme

[girlofprey]

Because I am bored and haven't done one in a while, a meme. Stolen from nostalgia_lj.

Name me a character! I will tell you:

* How I FEEEEEL about this character
* All the people I ship romantically with this character
* My non-romantic OTP for this character
* My unpopular opinion about this character
* One thing I wish would happen / had happened with this character in canon.

Although I have to point out that I'm not always in fandoms very much, and a lot of the shows I love don't always have much of a fandom, so I reserve the right to not really know which opinions about a character are unpopular. But I can probably give you AN opinion.

Happy Easter, also.

Amy

• I don't mind her. I'm not that fussed about her, I wish she would stop putting her own wishes above everyone else around hers and messing around, but I can understand her having that attitude from being in care.



• Hmmm. No-one really. Maybe Victoria, later on, if they stay good friends. I'd like to see her develop proper relationships with other people, I guess.



• Her and Val probably. Obviously Val is sticking up for her and standing by her, and I like how she and Amy sort of see through each other. I am way more interested in her relationship with Val than with anyone else, to be honest.



• I don't think she's as annoying as everyone on the soapboards says she is. Only when she's lying or something, really. I think she's a perfectly fine outspoken sort of teenager really.



• I haven't been watching it enough lately to know what's happened with her to be honest. Maybe doing something a bit illegal for Val and Eric's sake, so they have to come to her and say they appreciate it, but she doesn't have to, and also she probably shouldn't. That kind of thing might be quite nice.

Alicia

• Oh. I find her really irritating, to be honest. Again, I've not been watching it much lately so I don't know much of what's been happening with her. But she's just always angry and screaming at people over nothing. Especially Leyla, when Leyla gave her her baby, and she knows now how hard that was for Leyla. I think she shouts ar people without enough reason too, and they don't give her enough scenes of being more emotional and less horrible apart from that to make up for it. And I did see her start stealing from Leyla. What's that? I feel like they haven't fleshed her out enough really, they just have her around to be 'spiky' and shout at people.



• I'm not sure I ship her with anyone, to be honest. Maybe Leyla, sort of, if they could get over their issues enough.



• I don't know this either. I do tend to like her better in scenes with Jacob than with anyone else, so probably him. Or, if I was to use people who weren't family members, I did quite like her with Marlon when she had scenes with him a few months ago. That might be shippy, or as just friends, but I don't know. One of those two anyway.



• Basically how I feel about her I guess. I don't find her 'feisty' and 'spiky', I find her irritating and usually two-dimensional. I wish they'd flesh her out a bit more.



• I'd like to see her stick up for Leyla over something, really. Use that defensiveness and willingness to fight for the rest of her family's benefit, not just for Jacob, and so she could do something with Leyla other than get at her, and steal from her. If she's going to just fight all the time, with everyone, it would be nice to see it in a slightly different situation, frankly.

Continued from the last comment:

Andy

• I hate him. I don't know, I'm kind of not really interested anymore. If the writers genuinely think that having him be framed for trying to harm an ex-partner he stalked means he's suddenly gotten over his issues, rather than continuing with his anger management therapy and working at getting over them, then I'm not really that interested in anything he does. I find him quite boring when he's trying to be 'nice' or 'normal' anymore, and just nasty and awful when he's being angry and having his issues. So I just don't really care. I want him to leave, really.



• Death. Nobody. I don't know, I suppose I might slash him with his adopted brother Robert if Robert ever came back. They at least had some history and proper stuff to deal with between them. And in some ways I kind of ship him and Debbie, I don't know why. Just because even though their relationship was a bit weird, Cain got involved before they could sort themselves out properly. And I imagine they're both just grateful to each other for their respective parts in making Sarah. And he knows her really well, and she doesn't take any of his crap. So sometimes I wonder about them getting back together. But apart from that, no-one.



• No-one, really. If it's not going to be a relationship that might change him or make him better, I don't really want to inflict Andy on anyone. I do kind of like him and Victoria together, but I find her willingness to stick up for him no matter what he does a bit awful. Same with Diane, up to a point. So I don't know. Just his family, or no-one.



• He's not sexy. At all.



• That he leaves. Or dies. One of those two. Or at the very least, carries on with his counselling and actually gets over his problems, and is shown to be over them. That would be nice.

As for my bonus points, I don't know. There's a really long list of possible names, and the writers tend to get stuck in the As? Maybe they think it's quite country-ish to have names that start with vowels. I don't know.

With regard to the rest of the list, it's very long, and I feel like I'm going to have to come back to it another time. Tomorrow maybe, or later this week. Sorry, dude.
