Queen Susan of Narnia

Why I like them: Susan is one of those characters that I think completely transcends author intent. As a child I loved that she was "the pretty one" and the one everybody was supposed to look up to, but she had all these awards from camp for swimming and archery, and Aslan clearly expected her to be able to defend herself. Now, I look at her and see the one Pevensie that I really believe was able to follow Aslan's command to live in the world of their birth and make the most of it. I always got the sense that the other three were just biding their time, waiting until they could go back.
Why I don’t: I don't like that the movies felt the need to manufacture an attraction between her and Caspian, although I thought the actors did brilliantly with what they were given.

Oh - I also don't like how dismissive she is of Lucy fighting in battle, but the fangirl in me chalks that up to author sabotage.
Favorite episode (scene if movie, book, manga, etc): I have to admit I get a chuckle over how practical and British she is working out what happened to her horn in Prince Caspian.
Favorite season/movie/book/volume: The Lion, The Witch & The Wardrobe - either book or movie.
Favorite line: "Well, I am 1300 years older than you."
OTP: None
Brotp: Her and Peter - she's the perfect one to call him on his shit. I also like how she looks after the younger two, even though she's trying to act beyond her years.
Head Canon: She never really dismissed Narnia as a childhood fantasy - she's struggling to do what Aslan wanted and make a life for herself in our world, even though it's caused her to be estranged from her brothers and sister.
Unpopular opinion: Not really well versed enough in the fandom to have an unpopular opinion.
A wish: That somebody would write a grown up Susan story.
An oh-god-please-don't-ever-happen: That they not be a fan of how Lewis portrays grown-up Susan.
5 words to best describe them: Strong, competent, bossy, earnest, conflicted.
My nickname for them: N/A

Actually I did. *g*

Why I like them: (You have to understand that I come into Arrow with a metric fuckton of good will for all these characters.) I like Laurel because she's practical, idealistic, and even though she's clearly attracted to Oliver, she realizes a relationship with him is a bad idea and is trying to act accordingly.
Why I don’t: She feels like a distraction at this point - her strengths have actually disengaged her from the main storyline.
Favorite episode (scene if movie, book, manga, etc): In Starcrossed Murderers, I like that she was willing to reach a compromise with Tommy over the money thing.
Favorite season/movie/book/volume One (obviously)
Favorite line: "I hoped you'd rot in hell longer than five years."
OTP: No matter how hard they try to sell me on Tommy/Laurel, I'm a Laurel/Ollie girl all the way! (ah, childhood imprinting!)
Brotp: Laurel/Joanna
Head Canon: That Laurel is Black Canary and she and Ollie will start a torrid affair as their alter egos where they never remove their "masks".
Unpopular opinion: That Katie Cassidy does a decent job with the part.
A wish: That I get to see her mocking her mother's idea of a superhero costume.
An oh-god-please-don't-ever-happen: Don't stick her with the bathing suit/fishnets/motorcycle jacket look. BE BETTER THAN THE 70'S, CW!!!!!
5 words to best describe them: Savvy, idealistic, fierce, issues, tough
My nickname for them: N/A
