lyricalecho BTREALITY IS ON *RIGHT NOW*

Things I Am In Love With:

1. Finnick Odair. So, okay, Hannah's been reading the Hunger Games. (Actually, Hannah had been reading the Hunger Games; she just finished Mockingjay a few days ago.) And she's been doing the same thing she did with Percy Jackson, where I read assorted random paragraphs over her shoulder and beyond that she keeps me posted on whatever's going on, and through all of this I have drawn one conclusion:

I love Finnick Odair.

Actually, not even that, because if this were just a list of things I love it would be a lot longer. Fine, then: I am in love with Finnick Odair. It's true. And it's ridiculous, because I've never even read the damn books and yet here I am, flailing wildly and thinking about Finnick ALL THE TIME. I just. as;dlkj what is wrong with me, I don't even.

2. The BTR fandom. I've maybe said this ninety-six times in the past few months, but you guys. YOU GUYS. I don't get actively involved in fandom too often, more due to my own morbid terror of human interaction than anything, but so far the Big Time Rush fandom-- or the LJ corner of it, at least-- has been just incredibly sweet and funny and unbelievably talented. There aren't any real ~ship wars~, no real ~drama~, and it's just... it's just fun, and it's awesome to be part of it. <3

(If anyone from bigtimerush or palmwoods is reading this, um, hi, hello, I'm sorry that I keep gushing about how amazing you guys are in a probably creepy fashion. I realize that I'm sort of cuckoo bananas but I promise I'm mostly harmless. *waves*)

3. Community. Can we talk about Community, you guys, please? Like, can we possibly discuss how Community went from a-show-that-I-watch-when-it's-on to possibly-my-favorite-part-of-the-one-block-of-television-I-consistently-watch? And can we discuss how I relate to Abed possibly more than any other character in existence, and can we discuss how completely in love with him Troy is, and can we discuss how Annie is adorable and Jeff is hilarious and how this show likes to make me cry even when it shouldn't? Because I think we need to do that.

(Relatedly, Parks and Rec is also amazing, and April and Andy are my favorite ever. :Dd)

4. Writing. I've actually started posting more fic, kind of recently-- a lot of it as a result of the aforementioned BTR fandom being so amazing-- and wow. Sometimes I angst about writing because it invades my brain and distracts me from real work and I never finish anything, but sometimes I get something done and I'm like oh, yeah, right. Because that feeling is the most amazing feeling.

5. Getting into klorbag varblernelking college. Ahaha, I sort of promised myself I wouldn't be the I GOT INTO COLLEGE girl, but I. I got into college. It's kind of amazing, you guys.

And, why not, let's do this meme! Leave me a character, and I will answer the following. (Probably.)

1) What is your opinion of this character? If you like, explain why you like him/her.
2) Is he/she important to the general plot?
3) Can you relate to this character at all? Does he/she grip you emotionally?

5) Do you ship this character with any other character? Or, are you particularly intrigued by his/her relationship with any other character(s)? (romance-wise or platonic)
6) Is there anything about the character you would change?
7) If you were in the fandom with this character or knew this character in real life, how would you see yourself interacting with him/her? Would you get along well? Fall in love with him/her? Dislike? Have a friendly rivalry?
8) Does this character make the cut as one of your all time favorites (if you like) or least favorites?
9) Would you hype up this character (if you like) or warn about this character (if you dislike) to someone new to fandom?
