Question ... if you were stuck in a dangerous, life-threatening situation, who would you most want there to protect you? (Actor, character, whatever.) I'm looking for a specific person here -- name anyone you want.

Kali, the goddess of chaos....

or if she's busy, the world's best assassin.

then again, I AM crazy...

Josh Jackson. He's cute, he throws a mean drunken punch and he saved two chicks from drowning, IIRC. That's got to count for something.

For simple 'keep me alive', the comic-book version of Jean Grey. Miss I-Can-Access-Godlike-Power-And-Lay-The-Smackdown-On-An-Entire-Regiment-Of-Religious-Nutcases-While-Keeping-You-Secure-In-A-Telekinetic-Bubble is the ideal protectress.

However, if it's a more human-level danger, and we're going in side by side, I'd want Faith, the reformed-yet-badass version. Maybe with Wesley for backup.

Movie Logan/Wolverine. With a side helping of Captain Jack Sparrow (sober).

Jim Ellison (from The Sentinel). It probably wouldn't work that well, since everybody Jim cares about dies tragically, but at least he'd look hot doing it. No, seriously, he's a good mixture of brains and brawn, and he'd go to the mat for you-- he's very loyal.

Vimes from Discworld. Although he'd probably smack me alongside the head once or twice.

[wal-lace.livejournal.com]

Damn. You've got a point there. Vimes could handle almost any situation imaginable.

Or Susan Sto Helit. Susan can handle things which really aren't imaginable. And she always has a clean hankie.

Q

Star Trek's TNG - Q

Without a doubt - besides being devilishly sexy; he has the power to do anything!

Re: Q

While not my original choice (which was "I dunno", BTW), Q could pretty much trump anything you could throw at him, unless you were another Q.

The funny thing about Q was, when I first saw him, I was like, "Dude, wasn't he on 'Days Of Our Lives'?" Indeed, John DeLancie was. Later, he also appeared as Q on Voyager, and appeared (not as Q) in one episode of the ill-fated ABC series "Sports Night" (which, once it began running on Comedy Central, became one of my favorite shows).

Wolverine (comicverse) or Cyclops (movieverse). They're two of the biggest badasses there are, and they've proven again and again they'd die before letting an innocent person die. I chose comicverse for Wolvie because he's got his priorities a bit straighter but Movie!Cyclops is less complicated and more straightforward.

Buffy. As long as I was, you know, a friend or relative of hers.

[amethystgreye.livejournal.com]

G.I. Joe. Or McGuyver (sorry about the spellng).

[tree220.livejournal.com]

MacGyver since he's capable of getting out of most situations with only the use of his handy dandy swiss army knife and a stick of gum and a shoe string . . .

[darqstar.livejournal.com]

Comic Wolverine. Especially if the threat was physical. For psychological torture, I'm not sure who I'd want to be with me. Probably Gambit, just because if I'm being tortured, I want someone pretty to look at. And maybe he could distract the people doing the torture.

Gackt. Simply because he's so beautiful.. his beauty alone w ould stop someone in their tracts.


.. or Kyo, from Dir en grey. He'd like.. you know. Bite someone. >_>

tracks*.. yes.. I can spell. *mutter*

any/all of these

[paradoxymoron.livejournal.com]

Wolverine.
Anyone from the good side from the Sword of Truth series. (Richard, Kahlen, Zedd, Chase, etc)
The very first D&D character I made. Of course, he'd probably blow a lot of shit up, but hey.
Leon from The Professional/Leon
Tank Girl. *drool* Lori Petty!!
Kenshin.
Rei. (NGEvangelion)
Jacky Chan.

The boring, practical me says: The Hunter, from Neverwhere.

The interesting, witty me has gone into permanent hibernation.

James Potter.

Er, obviously not dead, though. James Potter before he died? Can I do that?

Hmph, fine. My Dad.

comic!Logan... not the movie one he's far to tall for me, I like 'em short and hairy apparently.
Also Movie!Logan doesn't seem as fierce.
*happy thoughts*
