Comment to this post with the name of a character that I have written in fic. Or geeked out about.

I will comment telling you the following:

a. What initially prompted me to like the character enough to write about him/her.
b. One of his/her best traits.
c. One of his/her worst traits.
d. How easy/difficult I find it to write the character.
e. The story/chapter/paragraph/phrase where I feel that I truly captured the character*.
f. My plans (if any) to write the character in the near future.

I am going to go with the obvious: Spike.

a. What initially prompted me to like the character enough to write about him/her.

The fact that he at least seemed redeemable, then his friendship with Dawn and his love for Buffy


b. One of his/her best traits.

His stubborn refusal to just stay down. Spike's a survivor, no matter what you do to him, he always gets back up.



c. One of his/her worst traits.

His tendency to get childish when he feels defensive.


d. How easy/difficult I find it to write the character.

Very easy, too easy sometimes.


e. The story/chapter/paragraph/phrase where I feel that I truly captured the character*.

hmmm, that's a hard one.Let me get back to you on that one*g*



f. My plans (if any) to write the character in the near future.

Well I'm writing a fic for Spuffy Haven, that has Spike, Buffy and lots and lots of dragons.

The fic for Spuffy Haven sounds interesting.

Personally, I always find Spike a challenge to write because he's such a chameleon. He's not the same Spike we were introduced to in Season Two, even though there's shades of that Spike afterwards.
