you know it's true...

[lirazel]

Y'all, make my whole entire day and give me a character from one of my fandoms (a character you know I actually like, please), and I'll give you some items from my personal canon.  Because that is the funnest game ever (and yes, you can do repeats from previous personal canon posts.  Any character I like).


Forineffort :  Dean Winchester
1.  He was in love with the girl he lost his virginity to.  He was fifteen (awkward and definitely not a ladies' man), she two years older, and all he remembers is the way she smelled and that nothing will ever feel that good ever again.
2.  He always knew that one day he would die for Sammy.
3.  He knew that his dad knew it, too, and approved, and Dean will never admit that he'll never forgive Dad for that.
4.  His favorite movie is The Wizard of Oz.  All the evil easily defeated, and then you get to go back home to Kansas.
5.  The reason that thing with Jo never went anywhere?  He was well aware that she was too good for him.

For madcap_shiny :  Chuck Bass
1.  He knows that the reason he doesn't care about anyone is that the two people he actually does care about--his dad and Nate--will never, ever care about him half as much.
2.  He could be a better business man than even his dad, but what's the point?
3.  Eric might be his favorite person on earth (besides Blair).
4.  He'd known for years that Blair was the only woman he could ever respect, but until she got up on the stage at Victrola, he always thought she was out of his league.
5.  When he was younger, he'd talk to his mother every night before he went to bed the way other kids say their prayers (he still does, only in his mind now).

For moonlightrick :  Cindy "Mac" Mackenzie
1.  She's just a little bit jealous of Wallace--he'll always hold the title of "Veronica's best friend"--and of Veronica--she wishes she had someone as loyal to her as Wallace is to Veronica.
2.  After she found out about the baby swap, she went back to the Sinclair house and made friends with (her real little sister) Lauren on the sly.
3.  She hates herself for still loving Cassidy.
4.  She wants Dick to get his act together because if he can, then surely she can, too.
5.  Yeah, finding out that she's not who she thought she was, realizing that her first loved killed dozens of people and raped her best friend, being left alone in that hotel room--that all messed her up.  But she knows that she's going to be fine.  She's stronger than all that.

For that_september :  Bobby Singer
1.  He loved John like a brother, but sometimes when he looks at the boys and sees how screwed up they are, he hates John.
2.  He believes in good for this reason only--he may have failed his wife (and that fact may still keep him up at night, still haunt his nightmares), but she loved him, and she was as perfect as any person ever could be.
3.  Growing up, he wanted to be a teacher.
4.  His family had money.  Lots of it.  He never cared.
5.  He prays for the boys every night.

Forhide_r :  Spike - William Pratt
1.  He thinks Angel's a total git for wiping Connor's mind like that, manipulating reality--magic always has consequences--but he's also jealous.  Angel would never have done that for him.
2.  Even though he's gone so far beyond the place where he'd be able to relate to her anymore, he still misses Drusilla.
3.  His biggest regret about that last year in Sunnydale is that he never made things right with Dawn.
4.  By the time his mother started coughing, he'd already watched his father and little sister die of consumption.  He knew he wouldn't be far behind.
5.  He's glad he never drank from Buffy and she never offered.  It means she actually sees him as a man.  And that's all he ever really wanted from her (the I love you was just a bonus).


For ava_leigh_fitz : River Tam
1*  She has dreams of other girls, her age or younger, fighting monsters far more terrifying than Reavers.  To anyone else, they would be nightmares, but she likes to know she isn't alone.
2.  The one thing she's never doubted is that Simon would come for her.
3.  She loves Kaylee, but sometimes she gets annoyed when the mechanic talks down to her.  People forget that she's a genius (also a bit of a brat.  But proud of it).
4.  She's glad the Blue Hands cut her open.  Because she would never leave Serenity to go back home again even if she had the chance.
5.  Sometimes at night she goes and sits in the pilot's chair and talks to Wash.  He talks back (but she would never tell Zoe.  It would hurt her too much).


*This is born of my absolute conviction that River is a Slayer in the future.  You know she has Slayer dreams.
