apocalypsos: (boo misbehave)

Okay, that's it.

Tell me something awesome about a woman you love in any fandom. Wax poetic. I want to hear people talk about what they love about female characters. And try to pick female characters or women in RPF who haven't already gotten love so we can spread it around.

And no bashing other people's comments!

You know what? I'm picking Boo. Yeah, okay, she's a very tiny woman. Who cares? She's silly and fun and adorable, and looking at an icon of her always makes me feel better, and she learns how to be brave right before our eyes. I heart that so much that I really wish I had the time to rewatch Monsters Inc. before I leave for work, but I don't, damn it.

Now you go. :)

EDIT: Guys, if you want to do more than one character, go nuts. The more, the merrier, right? \o/

Shockingly enough, I'm not seeing any mention of Veronica Mars.

Honestly, there are few female characters on TV that I would find as well-rounded as Veronica. She's gone through hell and she certainly hasn't forgotten it or what it's done to her- but at the same time, it doesn't take over her life. She doesn't wallow, she's not going to take your bullshit, and she still believes enough in people to help them (for a fee).

Also, the Sixes.

Yay, I was waiting for someone to mention ol' Veronica. You've summed her up pretty well!

Oh, man. I love Veronica. Tough, fierce, scrappy Veronica, with a tongue like razor blade and smarts like whoa and marshmallow heart. The show's been off for more than a year, and I still miss her. One of my old-time favourite female characters on TV, hands down.
