Personal Fanon meme

[owl]

Gakked from everyone, practically:

Name a character and I'll give you three or more "facts" from my personal fanon about that character.

My fandoms: Doctor Who, Star Wars, Harry Potter, BSG, assorted SF and children's books (check my interests), probably some others I've forgotten....

That should probably be put in the rather backhanded context of me generally really not warming to peoples' OC Luke-partners. I was never that sure even about the one Barbara Hambly wrote, and usually she can persuade me of pretty much anything, and I never had any time for Mara Jade at all, possibly because she just reminded me far too much of the string of ubercompetent, uberfoxy and ubertortured characters one of the players in my Tuesday games had a string of in the early 90s. Keiten just wandered in and was like 'Hi, I'm canon', though.

I definitely found it through your LJ but I can't remember whether we'd friended each other or not - I think I was just on a random 'oooh, people who have Antonia Forest as an interest' trawl.

No, I never bought Luke's wEUmen either; Callista, Hambly's one, seemed like she'd wandered in from a rather differnet SF universe, and she was the best of them. Mara's like something a roleplayer dreamed up in the middle of the night, yes.

You've almost persuaded me to go off and write "Luke and Keiti Live Together in a Nicle Little Temple and Have Ten Jedi Babies" *hnrr hnrrr*

Seriously, I don't know why SW hasn't got a uterine replicator when they're so good with prosthetic hands and stuff. (Doylist answer: It was invented by a man, and then continued by more men to eager to get to the CRASH BANG bits to do any thinking).

Hee! Little Shmi, Little Bayle, Little... uh, did Leia's adoptive mother ever get a name beyohd 'Mrs Organa'?

Maybe they were invented by Darth Plageous before he moved on to 'Violating Medical Ethics By Means Of The Dark Side Of The Force' and therefore got tainted by association?

Breha. Little Ben, Little Anakin, Little Aunt Beru, Little Owen...

Possibly. The clone guys in AotC seem to use them, so yeah. But then there's bound to be a GFFA equivalent of Victoria Beckham who would go for it anyway... Actually if they'd had something like that in the EU, it could have been interesting, instead of Skywalker relative #534 falls to the Dark Side.

Are there a lot of Skywalker relatives going bad in the EU? I haven't read much of it at all, mostly books borrowed at random from friends, and I gave up after I started realising how very much I didn't believe in Han having a previous True Love before Leia. In my head she was the One (uh, not in any Matrixy sense) and that's that.

Han and Leia's kids seem to be going through a revolving door into the Dark Side, when they aren't being killed off.

In my head she was the One

Yeah, mine too.
