First of all, jsgoddess, there’s nothing at all weird about falling in love with Reepicheep. I’m not inclined towards males, but if I were, I could very easily see myself head-over-heels for him.
I was reminded by another thread of Trillian, from the Hitchhiker’s Guide books. But not the TV version; she was just a ditz. And I also feel obliged to add both Dora and Minerva, from Heinlein’s Time Enough for Love.
Also, speaking of Minerva, I ought to throw in Pallas Athene, from the ancient Greek mythology. Let me tell you, that Paris schlub had no taste in women.
And of the various Star Trek babes, easily the best is B’Ellana Torres, of Voyager. Which admittedly sets up a bit of cognitive dissonance, since I’m then forced to admit that that show exists.
Lord Goring from An Ideal Husband, and Rupert Everett is yummy in the movie version.
Dr. Jubal Harshaw from Stranger in a Strange Land & To Sail Beyond the Sunset.
Han Solo
Nick Charles from Dasheill Hammet’s Thin Man mysteries
Spike from the Buffyverse
From Shakespeare, a little Rosalind, Rosaline (from Love’s Labour’s Lost , not that other play), as well as Mercutio, Benedick, and, uh, Richard III.
Literature – d’Artagnan, for sure, although I’m also partial to Aramis; I’ll see vivalostwages’ Dr. Maturin and raise you one Diana Villiers. Enjolras from Les Mis. Crowley from Good Omens.
And, Odysseus. Yes, that Odysseus. He’s foxy! I mean, as sly as a fox.
Oh, see, Strongbow’s way more my style. Gotta love the strong, silent types.
I’m head over heels for Jamie Fraser, from Diana Gabaldon’s Outlander series. Shirley Ujest, you can have Ranger, I’ll take Morelli (from the Janet Evanovich Stephanie Plum books.) Lessee, who else… Lussurioso, from the film verson of Revengers Tragedy, as played by Eddie Izzard (although to be completely honest, I’d take Eddie in any guise, so perhaps that’s not really a fictional choice.) I want Atticus Finch to be my dad, and the Weasley kids to be my nephews and nieces. Robert B. Parker’s Spenser is a doll, but for pure sex, no chit-chat, I’ll take Hawk, thanks.
Weird.
The girl from 9 Chickweed Lane (Emma?). I wish my imagination was still that active.
Nymphadora Tonks from the fifth Harry Potter book. Mmm, Coolidge effect.
If I were a little younger George Michael’s cousin on Arrested Development (Maebe?). According to Cecil there’s nothing wrong with it.
Athena, but I think she’s a little out of my league.
Sada Jacobsen. What do you mean she’s real? No one can have that much class, style, and brains and still seem like a person that I could grab a cup of coffee with. Not to mention being really good at a cool sport (fencing). Nope, I clearly dreamed her up…
