out of character - well, almost every fanfic. leggy falling in love is out of character, just becaus it was never described in the books in any way, shape, or form...ect.
how are you defining it?

Ah, ok. That's a different interpretation of in and out of character than I was familiar with:)
I go by in character is words, actions and events which are possible/probable within the personality and world as described by Tolkien, using logic and imagination to extrapolate from what that character has said and done in the original text. It is therefore possible for me to write out a scene with Pippin making love to his wife, and still be 'in character', even though Tolkien never actually wrote about it...
Out of character would be something against the known traits & predilections of someone, so I wouldn't write Aragorn jumping on a table in fright at the fear of a spider. That would be out of character.
Make sense?

Yes, I'd make an exception for a professional swimmer as well. Or diver. Male diving is my favourite Olympic spectator sport. Yummy...that concentrated walk out to the edge of the driving board. concentrated look, the ripple of muscle across the chest as they raise their arms above their heads. One leg lifted and then ...balled and concentrated muscle flipping and spinning into the water below.
Okay - am I embarrassed about having said that?  Let me think.... no.
Still thinking about who I would fancy if I fancied women... still haven't come up with one. |

Okay, okay, always gotta post on this sort of topics. Pervy me....
Okay, umm, I'm not really for the pretty face elfy ears, though I will admit when Fellowship came out I had a crush on Bloom. I know, I know! Another one fallen victim to that d*** pointy ear. And I found him even more gorgeous out of costume, though I'll never admit that to anyone in my family.
I never really liked guys with beards or stubble and all that until I saw Eomer.  But he's simply yummy! But no other guys apply in that.
But what turns me on (besides Eomer) would be a tall guy, fit of body but not muscle-bound Mr. Universe types, deffinately a roguish smile, an Irish or Australian accent, (I don't know why, but I just love 'em) and I love red hair. The dark red preferably, not the orangey. I don't know why, must be the Irish in me.
But has anyone ever noticed that Aussie guys are gorgeous? You got Karl Urban, Martin Csokas, Ian Thorpe. Now talk about good-lookin. He (Ian) has got it all, great body, good looks, the accent I'm sure, one of the best swimmers. **shivers** Or have I gone into to much detail here?
I'll just stop now before I gross ya'll out.

Karl Urban and Martin Csokas are New Zealanders.
It's not the same country - it takes three hours to fly between NZ and Australia and the accent is different.
(Sorry it's like confusing Americans and Canadians or English and Irish) |

I love beards, just not long ones. Hubby keeps one 1/8th of an inch now and its soooo nice.  He also doesnt look like a baby now :p
As for women, I think Catherine Zeta-Jones is the most beautiful woman in the world. She's just so exotic and mysterious and sexy. I'd hop in bed with her in a second
*cough* Well, if I LIKED women...
Hubby likes red heads - he had to go see spiderman... a lot...

I agree about Catherine Zeta-Jones. She is such a natural beauty.
I also love Kate Winslet... she is just soooooo cute!
(And NO, I am NOT gay). |
