Want to write paper, but not in mood. Neck hurts a lot (re: rear-ending in friends car yesterday I have not written about yet). Thus I leave me you meme and will try to work on my Jhumpa Lahiri paper anyway.

Comment with your character's name (past or present) and the name of one of mine, and I will tell you:

1) how my character's opinion of the named character has changed over time, or
2) why my character does or does not get along/like/other with the named pup.

Mine, for reference, are:

Maid Marian (queenofmay)
Allie Keys (grandsuccess)
Star (bright_daughter)
Lyta Alexander (vorlon_weapon)

Ow. Your poor neck. *hugs*

Wanna talk about Marian and X-23?

Have finished copying over all the quotes I want, so is entirely time for a break. *grins*

Marian adores Laura. I think this greater poignancy to it popping up more recently even surprised me.

She knows the girl is (--and at this point it's careful, precise, selection of word, with hoping that won't make either frown at me--) queer, both in ways she understands and for things she just doesn't. This queer-being-differentness does two different things. On one hand it makes Marian very curious and wanting to know of what caused it, and on the other hand, it means Laura reminds Marian of herself and people like her in her world, who don't fit inside someone's rules or lines or assumptions, and makes her want to take Laura as she is, being content in who she presents herself to be.

There is a simplicity to Laura that makes her easy to be around. There aren't requirements to speech, which, if making Marian slightly panicked in certain moments because she hides very well behind words, also, make her feel more relaxed and more free near Laura.

X is also, very, very direct and without filter which Marian emphatically either loves or is amused by, because no one ever is in her world (including herself)...but this also bites her in the ass when she doesn't expect Laura to do it to/about her to her face.

Totally someone Marian is *keeping*.
