'Tis a fandom meme.

[neshomeh]

Tell me of a fandom you know I know of and I'll tell you:

1. The character I first fell in love with.
2. The character I never expected to love as much as I do now.
3. The character everyone else loves that I don't.
4. The character I love that everyone else hates.
5. The character I used to love but don't any longer.
6. The character I would shag anytime. (N/A)
7. The character I'd want to be like.
8. The character I'd slap.
9. A pairing that I love.
10. A pairing that I despise.

Wheee! If you're not sure of a fandom, feel free to guess. The results could be entertaining.

In the category of "Stuff most people probably don't care to know," we found out yesterday that Mom has breast cancer. That sucks. I now have a family history of breast cancer. That sucks, too. I can deal with stuff I put myself at risk for, like carpal tunnel syndrome and arthritis, but I can't do anything about this. That sucks the most.

Phantom of the Opera!

And...wow. Yeah, that really sucks. o.o Have the doctors told you whether it's treatable or not?

[neshomeh.livejournal.com]

Yeah, the prognosis looks good. They're still finalizing the diagnosis (tubal vs. lobal--probably the former), but it seems pretty clear that they can cut the thing out. As long as there's nothing fishy in the lymph nodes, everything should be fine.

Now, the fun bit:

1. Erik. This is an interesting story, because I first experienced PotO on stage, in Toronto. I barely remember that now, but the Phantom fascinated me enough to find out more. I wasn't convinced that he was as bad as all that. {= )

2. The Persian/Nadir, mostly because I didn't know he existed for some time. I liked him in Leroux and I liked him all the more when I read Kay.

3. Gerrik. He's okay, but he ain't all that. I don't care much for Crawford!Phantom, either. Too nasal.

4. Hmm... I think all those characters in all their forms have a fanbase... Kay!Erik gets crap for being uncanon, though. *snuggles Phantom*

5. Um. Can't think of any.

6. No, thanks. Just give me Erik's voice in a box, 'kay?

7. The Persian/Nadir. Loyal, honest, trustworthy, and can be depended upon to do the right thing.

8. Any of them, especially in Kay. However, I could happily strangle that silly bint, Luciana.

9. Not big into pairings, but I suppose Raoul/Christine gets my vote. They deserve each other. {= P

10. Erik/anybody, really. I've never seen it work.

Erik: She prefers me eternally tormented. -_-

Yeah, well. I suggest starting with a good friend.

And that's that. {= )

That bites, mayorly.

*vibes to you and your family.*

Thanks. Good thoughts are appreciated. {= )

Oh, wow, I'm sorry to hear that. *hugs* I hope she'll be okay.

[neshomeh.livejournal.com]

*hugs back* Thanks. It should be fine. Still, it's one of those things you never expect to happen to YOU.

Yeah, I think I know what you mean.
