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/

Cimmorene, from Patricia Wrede's "Dealing With Dragons" and its sequels. A princess who finds the life of a princess utterly boring, she runs off to live with a dragon, learns magic and swordplay, keeps house and keeps up a library, and makes friends with a matronly witch with lots of cats, and a giant couple who own the world's silliest flying carpet (cream colored, covered with teddy bears. PINK teddy bears. BRIGHT pink.).

Cimmorene was one of my earliest heroines, and still one of my favorites. She was just so... awesome. And there was Mendenbar, who was also awesome in his own mild and somewhat dorky/kingly way, and he fell for her *because* she was awesome and used a sword and hung around dragons and could argue magic and *had commonsense.*

Ultimately, it was the commonsense that got me. ::sigh:: I miss that series.

I always wanted to be Cimorene when I grew up.
