Funnily enough I think I'm a bit of a Logan - terribly geeky and a bit of a spod - also ever so slightly embarassing in a posh kinda way, with middle-aged-uncle-at-party humour...

Gosh, now I've depressed myself!!

My hair is a lot gorram better tho... say season 1 DA (def not season 2!!) ...

Edited after further thought:

To be totally honest I think I'm a fit with Rupert Giles ... We speak the same way ("Heavens to Betsy!") and I like a good cup of tea damn near more than anything ... Plus I'm wicked good at research and cannot stand scatalogical humour (p.s. I also like long words) ...

I don't watch much sci-fi, honestly...

But I'd have to say Kaylee. Seriously, she's the one I relate to most.

I love to see, and constantly look for, the best in things and people. I appreciate the smallest details just for the fun of it. I'm incredibly loyal to the people I love and I don't mind wheedling my way into a little attention when I can. I take care of my belongings and appreciate what they do for me (people think I'm weird because I name and talk to my car, my computer, etc...). I like to personalise my spaces and have been known to decorate my work space with quirky touches.

And I love that Kaylee has such a *healthy* attitude to everything: food, sex, play, relationships. Because that's me, too.

And a million other reasons. She's just so real.

This is who I relate to most.

And for comparison, the other sci-fi shows I watch that I could have chosen from are: Buffy, Angel and Dark Angel.

Miles O'Brien

Many years ago, in middle school, there was an essay topic, " What will you be doing in 2001?"

I described, about 30 years before its time, Miles O'Brien's job...

Firstly, while I would have preferred my profile saying I'm most like Zoe (strong, capable, etc), I'm most like Jayne! I can't figure that out.

When I was young I most wanted to be like Spock, but I've always been too emotional. I'm probably more like Sulu: a bit of a hot head though in control of it, smart, savy. Oh, that's probably why I rated most like Jayne...the hot head part.

I'd like to say I'm like Kaylee, affectionate, nurturing, all that. My friends indicate I am, but I don't feel like it. After years of sleep deprivation (kids and school), I'm not as sweet as I once was (grouch would be an appropriate word, which would NOT be Kaylee). I'm trying to turn that around.

I'm also like Holly 13 (Farrah Faucet's character) in Logan's Run. Honestly, when I was 27 I was getting a lot of ribbing for being an airhead. I called my mom and asked if I was one and she said, "Well, dear, yes you are." Remember "Spock's Brain" when Kara (Marj Dusay) says, "Brain and brain: what is Brain!?" Well, I've made the mistake of using that in front of my kids and, yep, they've used it when I'm being a ditz.

Hmmm, a smart airhead? Yeah, that's another Jayne
trait.

Lastly (though I'll probably think of more but won't put them here), I most empathized (at the time) with the last droid in Silent Running. All these years later I still get a little weepy thinking about that droid being left alone in that habitat. Sniff.

Oh! And I'm like any of the ST engineers you might like to pick. I can fix/make anything, even if all I have are cable ties and duct tape, and still do it in less time than estimated.

AURELIANO

Since other non-science fictiony cult shows seem to be accepted, I'll settle for FBI Special Agent Dale Cooper!

Charming, coffee-loving, energetic, abstract incomprehensible logic, disarming, quirky sense of humour; pensive and brooding at times, but generally an upbeat, two-thumbs up attitude towards the surreal horror that is everyday life.

"This is, excuse me, a damn fine cup of coffee!"

Wow! Well, I didn't see those in the theater, but I did see 2001: A Space Odessy in the theater. I was pretty young, so it was pretty confusing. I can remember feeling like my brain was blown up like a helium ballon when we left the theater...HEY! Maybe THAT's why I'm an airhead. ANYWAY...to this day I can still here Hal saying, "Dave..." Creepifying!!

Logan's Run was the first sci-fi movie that my parents didn't have to take me into, that flick marked my freedom (OOps, a Yang worship word, I will not speak it!).

FOURTHTROIKA

Who would I be? Exactly.Doctor Who. I can dress any way I want (and still look stylish). And the TARDIS is my favorite wandering machine (though I think mine would be stuck in the form of a Pac-Man game). Go wherever, whenever, and still be home in time for dinner... eventually.

BLUECATSHIP

Just to take this in another direction, I took the Firefly Personality Test listed in one of the blog entries today. (I'm a newbie to this site and board, still trying to find my way around.)

It says I'm either Simon or Inara. Now I can see how I could be Simon (no, I have no siblings, crazy or not). But Inara? I apparently have some other, um, "talents" with untapped potential.

Personally, my sense of humor is more like Wash, so I was expecting some similarity there.

For other sci-fi? Spock was my hero as a kid. Daniel Jackson, because I like languages.

I'm a big Farscape fan, but I'm personally not like any of the characters. For Dark Angel, I'm a little like Logan, maybe.

Friggin' SWEET choice! Cooper rocks the hardest!

And, now, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to take Harry and the rest of the boys on a rock throwing trip to Tibet.

He does doesn't he?!

I even have the honour of being the member of a certain club *strokes temple with index finger*. And if Joss liked the series, it can't be half bad!

THEREAVER

Okay, I'm going for something different. The person in sci-fi I am closest to is Vinnie Gognitti from Max Payne. It's sort of sci-fi (he can slow down time). The reason I'm like Vinnie is because I want to be higher up in the chain of command but I always seem to be taking orders from someone above me (better than)

. I run away in the face of danger apart from a few odd exceptions. I am a massive fan of cartoons.

Hey! If you're a Bookhouse Boy, you're not supposed to tell anyone! Oh wait! I just told! Damn it!

Anyways, we're going a secret infilitration mission to One Eyed Jack's. Another character I loved from that show was Deputy Andy. It was so easy to feel sorry for him, and it was nice to have one nice character that wasn't a suspect.

Also, he and Lucy were so cute!

When he wasn't crying, that was...

SIDAR

Lady Dame Honor Stephanie Harrington, Duchess and Steadholder Harrington. (Honor Harrington series, by David Weber)

I've yet to find a situation in which I will give up hope, and if ever I am in danger, my immediate thought is how to get everyone ELSE out of danger first. Plus, I refuse to be recognized for my achievements unless they really ARE above and beyond the call of duty.

VISITINGMYINTENTIONS

I'm like Spock, mostly: a little confused about human interaction, especially when it is illogical. I have this tendency to think of emotionality as weakness (in the self, at least). Like Spock, I can do social interaction if it is explained and coached a bit.

On my good and bad days I'm more like River on her good and bad days, respectively.

These characters are both my favourite of their series. I think with Spock it's mostly because I identify with and understand him. With River, it's just because she is goddamn awesome. I was very pleased to be able to say that I am sometimes like her. Of course, on my bad days it really isn't that good...

---------------------------------------------------
Early: Where'd she go?

Simon: I can't keep track of her when she's NOT incorporeally possessing a spaceship, don't look at me --

I've always thought it would be fun to be Slippery Jim diGriz AKA: The Stainless Steel Rat.

No matter how oppressive and technological a society gets, there will always be rats in the woodwork so-to-speak... people who can sneak through the cracks by turning the technology against itself and work the system to their favor from outside of it. Is Slippery Jim a high tech thief? or is he the liberator of the future?

Those are fun stories (by Harry Harrison) that left an impression on me.
