32 goldfish collectively trying to remember what they had for breakfast.
I donāt remember the last time I came back to this many posts. Maybe when that group of users arrived from the Evolve forums? Mildly impressed.

I just deleted my PayPal pool because nobody chipped in. 
Oooohk. Questions. Questions questions questions.
What fictional character from anything (when I say anything, assume all media) do you relate with the most, and why?

ā¦worked 13 hours today and missed the last code. Thanks for the post though!
(edit - code good 'till Friday; just cleared 30k!)
While Iām viewing the media in the various Insider activities (and wonāt say no to another Twitch event where we have a shot at a weapon), Iām otherwise checked out of the BL3 hype train (am paying attention to weapon info though)ā¦ want to get all this pre-deployment nonsense out of the way, get the bugs worked out while waiting for the Steam release, and step into a relatively drama- and issue-free game in March.

Itās hard to pick just one!
Okay.
Sunset Shimmer and Applejack from Equestria Girls because theyāre both mature, empathic and very honest.
Sheldon from TBBT because he is an aspie just like me.
Webby from DuckTales (2017) because sheās smart, funny and adventurous.

Toss up between A.B.A. and Bridget from Guilty Gear (it also had a hand in me maining them). Both have aspects that I can relate with all too well.The Fiend from Junipers Knot counts too.

Love these last couple of interrogatives, Ars. 
I actually talked about this with my cousinās long time girlfriend last night, and although the answer changes semi regularly (in the past the answer has been Forrest Gump, Santiago from the Alchemist, and the titular Mariner from the Coleridge-Taylor poem)(just realized they are all from literature, which shouldnāt be surprising but kind of is. Maybe I should add Vincent Vega from Pulp Fiction to vary the media a bit), the current winner comes out of the Powder Mage Trilogy, which @Tokesy97 introduced me to. Quotes from our texts last night.
ā¦ I identified most easily with the knacked who has the eidetic memoryā¦ closer to who I am than who I want to be. Principled, drawn into someone elseās problems, but still striving to serve the greater good.
Add fiercely dedicated to his family with a small circle of almost fanatically loyal irl friends and the description is almost uncanny. (My memory isnāt exactly eidetic, but itās close enough that most people who know me irl would say it is. If they knew the definition, that is.)

You know me well enough that I probably donāt have to explain why. Bookworm, depressive, annoyingly moral at timesā¦ yep! As I was agreeing with my mum the other day, The Simpsons is the major artwork (I suck at coming up with non-pretentious names for stories) of my brother and Iās upbringing in the same way that The Hitchhikerās Guide was for my mum and dad.
Edit: Also, Beatrice from Much Ado About Nothing. Iām ambivalent about the Kenneth Branagh version of that play but her and her āmerry warā with Benedick are just wonderful in any rendition. Sigh no more.

Tough question. Maybe be a Baggins? Unsure if Frodo or Bilbo though.

@Hattie Thanks to your avatar Lisa is always where my mind goes first, but when I consider carefully these days I think of Thursday Next from the Eyre Affair. Maybe she can get an Honorable Mention?
@VaultHunter101 Iām gonna say Bilbo, if only because I always regarded him as a father figure (or at least somewhat similar to my father), and you are definitely that guy for me here on the forums.

Remind me of that character? Itās a very long time since I read that book - I remember enjoying it a lot, and the great gag about who wrote Shakespeare, plus something entertaining about bookworms. I also suspect that itās the source of my acquaintance with āsnoodā, my favourite word of all time and a touchstone in my family. Though the exact origin of the snood plethora is unknown and lost in the mists of time.

This is what comes to mind whenever I hear the word āsnoodā:
And your old Battle.net username, @Hattie.
Remember when we all played Overwatch together?
I can say the same, actually, and itās about due for a reread. But to my recollection she is an investigator in a department that investigates crimes against literature, in the case of The Eyre Affair I believe the abduction of Jane Eyre. I remember her having a dry, sarcastic wit and healthy skepticism that in our interactions you have always exhibited. Just my impression, but you are both characters I care for, so even if itās inaccurate it will likely continue to pop up when I see your avatar or contemplate Irish literature.

Yay.
