I third (or is it 4th?) Jamie Fraser and Mr. Darcy. Also the vampire St. Germain from Chelsea Quinn Yarbro’s books. Miles Vorkosigan, or maybe Gregor Vorbarra. Rupert Giles. I’ll probably think of more later.

Sam from **Benny and Joon**. He’s just so darn sweet! And he’s Johnny Depp. Which helps.

This has got to be a double-layered fantasy; Even if it were possible to do so, I would be **so** outclassed in all cases:

Heinlein’s **Podkayne**

**Mary, Dowager Duchess of Cumberland** in Randall Garrett’s Lord D’Arcy series

**Rhea Paixao** from Spider & Jeanne Robinson’s “Starmind”

ooh, ooh, ooh - Elizabeth Bennet AND Mr Darcy!

And I’m seconding a lot of the list, and I’m sure I’ll think of more as soon as I hit submit (ooh, that sounds rUUUUde):  
Death, Dream, and above all, Desire  
John Constantine, Lucifer  
Faith, Giles, Spike, Jenny Calendar, Vamp Willow, Drusiila (but only if suitably restrained)  
Peter Wimsey  
Amelia Peabody (tee hee)  
Hawkeye Pierce  
Frank N Furter, Magenta  
Snape only if played by Alan Rickman.  
Miles Vorkosigan, Bel Thorne  
Honor Harrington  
Daniel and Jack from Stargate.  
G’Kar I can see, too, but I couldn’t go past Ivanova!  
Aeryn Sun from Farscape  
Morticia Addams  
Servelan from Blake’s Seven

Susan Ivanova from **Babylon 5.**

I’m also agreeing with the Lady Jessica Atreides (the Saskia Reeves version, the other two are not quite my type.)

Ghanima Atreides, or her aunt Alia

Chani! (Kodetova, not Young)

Eccentrica Gallumbits, the triple-breasted whore from Eroticon 6. (HHGTTG)

Gillian Boardman, from _Stranger in a Strange Land_

Also from Heinlein:

Wyoming Knott

Do…um…_animated_ characters count?

If so, I…kind of have a few I can think of…

Oh man… so many to do so little time… most of the ones I like have been picked (In no particular order: Aragorn, Legolas, Spike, Angel, Edward (Anita Blake), Professor Snape, Wesley, James Fraser)

Hmm so who does that leave?

Frost and Doyle(Her Majesty’s Darkness) - LK Hamilton Merry Gentry series  
Darien - Sailor Moon  
Masterharper Robinton and F’lar - Dragonriders of Pern  
Madmartigan - Willow  
Sephiroth - Final Fantasy VII I believe it is (I don’t play FF I just find him hot)  
Rick O’Connell - The Mummy  
Wolverine - X-men duh… from the movies of course…

Hmm… others but I can’t think right now. The mind (and libido) has gone on meltdown.

**Ranchoth** ,  
Graphic novels, anime and the like are totally acceptable.

Hmm.

I’d have to say Urd, the elder sister from Oh My Goddess!

True, it’d probably be the death of me, but at least I’d die happy.

Roland from the _Dark Tower_ books, of course. Older Roland, not younger Roland. Although the missing fingers thing might give me second thoughts… I’ll say Roland from _The Gunslinger_ to be safe.

Xander from _Buffy_. Also Giles. But, for some reason, not Spike. Can’t say why. And Willow, if I were straight. She’s just so _adorable_!

</div>

Clark Kent/Superman from **Lois & Clark** …yeah, he wore lip gloss, but DAMMIT he was hot!!

The Prince of Shapeir from the Quest for Glory games. Just looks like he’d be a good shag, all heroic-like and stuff.

Nicholas D. Wolfwood of **Trigun**. All. freakin. week.

Wolverine, for the more animalistic urges.

And, of course, Xanatos from Gargoyles…Christ, I’d have sex with his _voice_.
