Stolen from Nikki (because I'm bored too)

 Name a character that you know I write or have written (or roleplay/ed), and I’ll tell you:

01. What initially prompted me to like the character enough to write about him/her
02. One of his/her best traits
03. One of his/her worst traits
04. How easy/difficult I find it to write the character
05. The story/chapter/paragraph/phrase where I feel that I truly captured the character
06. My plans (if any) to write the character in the near future.

Pups

- Ray Vecchio (due South)
- Bob Fraser (due South)
- Maggie Fraser (due South)
- Harding Welsh (due South)
- Jack Huey (due South)
- Ray Kowalski (due South)

Fic characters I've written (not included in pup list)

- Tom Dewey (due South)

I would include people from my RPF fics I've written but I don't think anyone has read them XD Uh, did some Jcck Sparrow stuff too but the same applies. *looks at list* Wow, I really need a new fandom...

Also? I might not answer question number 5 (especially with RayV) because it would take me an age to find a single paragraph and I don't want to still be answering this in a year to come.

That is....if anyone requests anything...because you might not, so this is unnecessary...but if anyone does...then, yeah. I'm gonna go over here now...

Tell me about you and Welsh *g*

Welsh. Hmm, okay. Well, I first started to learn how to speak it when my mother was- ohhhh, you mean Welsh. Okay!

01. What initially prompted me to like the character enough to write about him/her

He's in a league all of his own! And he's the only guy the two Ray's really look up to/follow orders from. And as much as he doesn't understand how !a Mountie fits into this" he's willing to go along with it because he believes in his men. And he sticks up for them through thick and thin, come hell or high water. And he'll let no-one doubt their ability, even if he himself says he does almost every day XD Also? He has some of the best lines in the show!!

"The handling of this case is uh, reaching new heights of futility."

He's sarcastic, but not Vecchio!sarcastic and he knows how to command his men. The fact he has very little back story (apart from Dr Longball, and we know he had/has a wife) also attracted me to him!

02. One of his/her best traits

Knows how to make the best damn sandwiches in the Greater Chicago area! Stands by his men.

03. One of his/her worst traits

Exercising in Lycra...? Sometimes he's forced to stick to the rules. But I don't suppose that's his fault. Hmm, worst trait...that's a toughie. Not letting me go through with the phony insurance claim!!!!!!!!!! Ray, get back in my head.

04. How easy/difficult I find it to write the character

Hard, Very very hard. Maybe the hardest one I have? Him and Maggie. That might be because I haven't had much practise writing them though. Because a certain cop takes up most of my RP time. *kicks Ray*

05. The story/chapter/paragraph/phrase where I feel that I truly captured the character

I don't think I have truly captured his character yet. :(

06. My plans (if any) to write the character in the near future.

Now he's getting fit (!) he might have a shot with Frannie... If I ever have time to write him, that is. I guess he, Maggie and Huey will be the first pups to suffer when I leave so I probably shouldn't be making plans for them.
