Hm. I could see myself dating Future Trunks, and being really good friends with Goku. Most other guys I find myself attracted to fall into the “hot, but it wouldn’t really work out” category. (Like, say, Legato from _Trigun_. Total bishonen, tragic as anything, but he’d probably kill me on our first encounter. _sighs wistfully_) But if I could put them all into a looney bin run by me… 😃 **Hello** , nurse. _eyebrow wiggle_ ---

Edda, from _9 Chickweed Lane_. I think she’s supposed to be 18 by now… And, by the same artist, Pibgorn. I know she’s legal - I think she said she’s something like 453 years old. ---

Mike’s first wife has got nothing on wife’s second wife, **Kim Rosenthal**. Geek love rocks!

As for the real **matt\_mcl** : Cho Hakkai from _Gensou Maden Saiyuki_ The Boshi brothers, singly or in bunches, from _Fushigi Yuugi_ Aburatsubo from _Maho Tsuki Tai_ (love the femme boys!) Several of the assorted bishies from _Kare Kano_ ---

I’m ashamed to admit it, but I alway thought Bruce Wayne from the Batman animated series of the 90s was hot. And even though they were teenage mutant ninja turtles and not humans, Leonardo from the original series had a voice that you could die for. I hoped that when I was older I would date someone with a voice like that. So far, no luck. ☹ ---
