10 Characters, 10 Fandoms more

Oh no @pinayelf has tagged me again so I'll have to do another set! :"(

(thank you Ellie! I already did one and I was crying because I left out characters, here it is if you or anyone wants to read it)

Tagging: @aimee-maroux @everythingispoetry @owlask @raflesia65 @morgandarcyarts @sapphireangelbunny @idolsgf @zenstrike @rowanisawriter and YOU!

1. Sir Gawain

We stan a bi king (in the poem he kisses the Lord THRICE. Out of his own will. In another he kisses Lancelot. On his lips.). I love Gawain in any declination, Arthurian cycle, medieval poems, Merlin and the latest movie. I put Dave Patel because visually it's the one that I like the most, but give me a Gawain and I'll like him.

2. Boromir - Lord of the Rings

I spent half my life hating him, then I REALISED. And now he's my sweet pea the apple of my eyes I love him and I'll defend him. Movie kinda did him dirty, but AAAAAH.

3. Beatrice - Much Ado About Nothing

Fiercely loyal sarcastic queen who can and will stand up to herself. I love her. Absolutely flawless.

4. Chrisjen Avasarala - The Expanse

She's everything and I love her more than words can say. Old professional lady cursing like a sailor and speaking her mind clearly. Was very torn between putting her or Ripley in the first batch, but Ripley got precedence out of seniority of my obsession. I couldn't suggest you (anyone you are reading) this show enough, and she is one of the big reasons (she and Bobbie. I love Bobbie <3).

5. Evie Carnahan - the Mummy

She's everything and I will fight for her.

6. Kronk - Emperor's New Groove

I quote this movie more than it would be healthy to do. Yzma comes a close second but it's him.

7. Madalena - Galavant

I stood there 10 minutes trying to decide whether to put her or King Richard. But this single scene was the one that made me fall in love with the show and how it turns tropes around and so yeah. This list was short of villains, furthermore and she is everything, go slay, queen.

8. Jasper Fahey - Grishaverse

As previously stated, you give me a chaotic blorbo with a flair for theatrics and I'm yours forever.

(another fave is Nikolaj, but here goes Jasper because you know. Less tsarism involved.)

9. Martha Jones - Doctor Who

Martha deserved so much better than what the show and the fandom gave her. She's a great character, she's strong and compassionate and kind and honestly she did it right in leaving the Doctor (here's a video essay of a person better informed than me). I am so sorry, but I don't like Rose all that much, particularly in the season with Tennant and I'm on the Justice for Martha squad.

10. Korra - Avatar: the Legend of Korra

I know her show has flaws. But her as a character IS NOT.

Again, I needed to have figures to deconstruct the trope of "strong girl" and she's it. I love her arc and how she needs to deconstruct herself to proceed.

(I love also Tenzin, Tenzin is my favourite and my love, but his character arc is to me slightly less compelling)

(don't ask me to choose just ONE character from ATLA, I can't, I'll stay stuck for two hours trying to decide whom I like best and end up running away screaming because I can't.)

On a book level I must add: Margarita from Master and Margarita. That book is my obsession and the reason I ended up studying russian literature and language. -even if Bulgakov was actually Ukrainian but guess how many people told me so and I won't start here on the subject)

[castlesbyrs]

i know a lot of motis shippers are freaking out and scared and perhaps this is just me trying to be positive but i do not think the writers would throw away 3 seasons of development for a ship that was together for..one episode? i mean, officially together. yes, i know r*tis became incredibly popular (they’re sadly overhyped) but maeve and otis have built up so much together in 3 seasons and while i am not exactly satisfied with what we got in season 3 (definitely excepted MUCH more seeing how the screeners described their scenes) their relationship has grown. they have a very deep and emotional connection. they know each other better than anyone. they believe in each other and their capacities and they don’t need to change into someone else. the only reason otis got with r*by, following the signals the show gave, was because he thought maeve didn’t want him in his life anymore and because she thought casual sex wasn’t his “thing.” throughout their whole “relationship”, i don’t think otis has ever stopped thinking about maeve and how SHE made him feel. it would be incredibly rushed and unrealistic if they went back to otis and r*by after otis told jean, his MUM, that maeve is his person. after he told maeve how he only did the clinic to be close to her. after he told maeve - not once but two times - he LOVES her. i mean even aimee and eric mentioned multiple times how they’re in love. i do believe otis and maeve are meant to be and i feel like even if they don’t end up together before the show ends, they will eventually come back to each other. they always do. the point is: the show, through the scenes, the songs and their lyrics (ex: when they’re destroying the bathrooms in ep 1 s3 the lyrics at some point goes “i love you” and we see otis looking at maeve and she looks back at him when the lyrics says once again “i love you”), through the characters interactions made pretty clear maeve and otis are meant to be and laurie said in different interviews that she was happy they were finally in a good place. i just hope season 4 shows us their dynamic as couple because the writers are perfectly capable to make people come back on motis side if they want to. anyways yeah, i just hope what i said makes sense and brought some hope to motis fans? 🥺 i just hate seeing people being so sad and scared about what’s gonna happen to them. love you besties! you got this xx

ps i know so many people think otis doesn’t deserve r*by but it’s the other way around for me lol. i think otis deserves much better than her. he deserves someone who isn’t ashamed to be with him and who treats him right. someone who doesn’t need to change him in order to be in a relationship with him and in my opinion r*by isn’t nor will ever be that person. i do NOT like her and i don’t think i ever will but i hope she grows and became a better person because it’s getting quite annoying the fact that she bullies people, calls maeve names and stuff. this is officially the end of my big rant. thank you for reading all of this 😭

Hi lovely anon and oh my god I wish I could be as positive as you are. Like an emotional side of my brain is like YEAH they wouldn't throw all of this away just for a couple of scenes and yet... the writers always find ways to fuck them up which scares me endlessly... add to the mix Emma kind of wanting to leave and I just don't know where we motis nation are supposed to be standing on now. I'm genuinely scared about what the future might hold for them and I think that even if they finally get their happy ending and please god let that be true, I think people will not even care anymore and I can't understand how or why. It just makes me so so sad. But I HOPE you're right and a side of me definitely agrees with you, the other side desperately wants to agree with you.

About your P.S. jsjdsjds i love you... i won't comment anything else because I'm so done with us getting hate for just expressing our opinions haha but I suppose that's enough of an answer from my side. I just have a BIG problem with her still calling Maeve a cockbiter, but oh well, people choose what to remember and what to forget.

Thank YOU for sending me all of this, I am so grateful to receive so many wonderful messages from people who feel just as passionate about this as I am, so you are amazing anon, and whatever happens we motis stans got one another <3
