I haven't exactly been tagged, but I'm stealing them from my flist.

From spikedluv:

Ten Fictional Characters I Would Have Hot Steamy Sex With:

I blush at this because it's so obviously unbalanced.

1. Spike. Duh.
2. Xander. Duh again.
3. Wesley. Books, moral ambiguity, accent, emotional damage and all. Grrrowr.
4. Mal Reynolds. Hot! And slightly morally ambiguous, and slightly damaged. Are we seeing a pattern here? I think I mostly want to sleep with Joss' mind. But not Joss.
5. Neo. Yeah, yeah, stop laughing. I like Keanu, okay? And I love Neo through all three of the movies, even when he's having Ted moments ("Whoa"), and whether in or out of the Matrix he is way sexy.
6. Westley (Princess Bride). True love conquers all!
7. Legolas. No, really. I've been in love with him since, like, forever. Since I read the books age 8 or so. Before I knew what sex was. This has nothing to do with Orlando (though I suppose I wouldn't say no.)
8. Lancelot du Lac. Again, this way predates the recent popular movie.
9. Dave Jones. Webcomic character from CRFH!!! Okay, so that's pretty weird. But the guy is cute, troubled, smart, skinny, shares part of his soul with his cat, and has laser vision. What's not to love?
10. Tank Girl. I have such a crush on her. I'm not into women, but if I were looking for someone to initiate me into the wonders of girlsex, she'd be the chick of choice. I'd follow her around and drool and be her sidekick.

I refrain from titling it the "Top Ten" because I know I'm forgetting myriad options, and I reserve the right to edit later! :)

And from entrenous88:

Ten Fictional Characters I Wouldn't Sleep With Even If You Paid Me:

Like Entre, I've tried to include the non-obvious ("mingers", in local parlance). For instance, I left off Clem.

1. Lindsey. This was a tough call, CK's hot, but Lindsey is just *too* unsafe.
2. Batman. In any incarnation.
3. Cyclops (X-Men). His attitude just pisses me off. I don't know what Jean Grey sees in him.
4. James Bond. Bad news.
5. Faith. Scary.
6. Buffy. Possibly even scarier, oddly enough. Way way too much baggage.
7. Draco Malfoy. I mean, obviously I'm considering a post-canon, legal-age Draco, and he's stunningly beautiful and intelligent. But the evil and the bad attitude are not on. And the superiority complex. Plus he wouldn't have me anyway, I'm a Muggle with a vague resemblance to Ginny Weasley.
8. Simon Tam. Which is odd, because he's totally the type I'd normally go for - but his relationship with River is just a bit too...intense.
9. Jim (Sentinel). I just don't get the attraction. He does not do it for me.
10. Aragorn. The man can't relax. And again with the superiority.

You know, for The Sentinel, I almost put both Jim and Blair, partly because they're both such dogs (how many first-dates or sudden-relationships do those two get into every week?). But then I realized that I also have a bias against fanon!Blair, because he's such a ho. Heee, poor Blair.

Buffy and Faith -- you know, I'd be a little afraid that they'd hurt me. I mean, slayer strength! Yikes!

Spider Robinson makes reference, in one of his Callahan books, to another story - I'm not sure if it actually exists, or if he made it up as a story within a story - Man of Steel, Woman of Kleenex. It reportedly chronicles Superman's difficulty with his sex life.

I am completely disinterested in either Jim *or* Blair as potential fictitious sex partners. Just no. But yes, it is interesting how much fanon can affect one's perceptions of a character - good to go back and rewatch canon intermittently, realize how far we've strayed.

I like that we have the same two people as #1 & #2 on our "to list" but just in a different order!! Wesley almost made my list as well. I pondered doing a shout out to him and some other people I couldn't fit in, but decided to not cheat this time!!

I think I mostly want to sleep with Joss' mind. But not Joss. heeee! I think I feel the same way!!

I love that you included Westley!! Your list has a good diversity of sources. And I'm amused that you clarified your love for Legolas is pre-Orlando Bloom.

And, I definitely think Tank Girl is an excellent choice!! A number of my friends have had hair like hers over the years. In fact, one friend does right now.

Lindsey is a unsafe, although I'm torn because I get so distracted by the hotness (*is VERY shallow*). Batman's an interesting choice. Is it because of the darkness?

With you on Cyclops and James Bond, and obviously Faith. I think I wouldn't sleep with Buffy more because I feel an odd kinship with her (although we're different in many ways), so it would just be weird.

but his relationship with River is just a bit too...intense. Dude!!! I know, very very intense.

Ah, isn't it fun to decide whether we'll reject fictional characters?!!!! *g*

Spike leads the pack by a long shot, for me. I have slowly grown into Xander love. I didn't care that much about him at first *ducks tomatoes*. I think it comes from not having watched s1-3 initially. I'm probably more into him now that I've read so many fics in which Spike's been into Xander! (Figuratively, I mean. Well, okay, often literally. *snerk*)

Hey, wait, wait! Is there any rule that says it has to be one at a time? Why choose #1 or #2? Spander sandwich, baby!!

I've been a PB lover for years; we used to have annual showings. And you think a little head jiggle is going to make me happy, hmm?

Hmm. Batman's just...boring. I don't know why exactly. Tortured, dark, rich, lonely - just, no. No chemistry with Christian Bale or his predecessor either. Plus the secret identity thing would get annoying, and his public persona is a useless waste of space.

I wasn't that clear in my mind whether I was considering people as a one night only event, or something slightly more involved. Lindsey might be okay as long as you went in, had fun, and made it out before getting caught up in any evil plots.

Hee! Yes! I am rejecting all these Teh Hawt people. Look at the power of me! Take that, James Bond you misogynistic jerk! :P

Sorry about the long delay...*sigh*. I've actually dealt with your 'tag', and I'm still speaking to you! LOL...it was close. *winks* It was fun reading yours, and I even actually kind of had fun sorting through my thoughts to post mine. Thanks, hon...

*hugs you*
