helenofeddis replied to your post: Couldn’t help but notice your “Ode to Fran Kranz’s Hands” post. Friendly reminder that he plays the piano.
Ok, pause, who DOESN’T find the piano a huge turn on? because jeez, think of the IMPLICATIONS.
That is a good point. In fact, that very… fetish? kink? whatever… that’s what helped me get through about nine episodes of “Everwood” before I just couldn’t handle how awful it was. Well, that, and my lifelong and indefatigable crush on Gregory Smith, which was cemented into my fangirl heart somewhere between watching “Harriet the Spy” over and over and seeing him play Calvin O’Keefe. Granted, he was not Calvin O’Keefe at all, in any real sense, because the writing for that movie disregarded all the character traits that made the characters interesting in the book (I want to rewrite it so badly). But given that Calvin O’Keefe was my first full-on fictional crush, the association probably worked in his favor nonetheless.
And wow, I sure can ramble, can’t I?
25 fictional people who have their hooks in my heart
In no particular order:
1. Calvin O’Keefe, “A Wrinkle in Time” and “A Wind in the Door”
2. Ryan Ollman, “So Weird” - Oh, he was only in one episode? DON’T BOTHER ME WITH TRIFLES
3. Paton Yewbeam, “Children of the Red King” series
4. James Raven, “A Gun for Sale”
5. Horst Cabal, Jonathan L. Howard’s “Cabal” series
6. Pacey Witter, “The Pacey Witter Show” (this would be the fictional series in my mind that includes only the scenes from “Dawson’s Creek” containing Joshua Jackson and none containing Katie Holmes - positive comments about DC with relation to my love for Pacey Witter will result in the commenter being beaten repeatedly with something blunt and unhappy)
7. Ricky Fitts, “American Beauty”
8. Evy Carnahan, “The Mummy”
9. A dozen different characters on “Teen Wolf”
10. Veronica Mars, “Veronica Mars”
11. Logan Echolls, “Veronica Mars”
12. Topher Brink, “Dollhouse”
13. Rory Williams, “Doctor Who”
14. Kelly Bailey, “Misfits”
15. Eight different characters played by Matthew McNulty
16. Captain David Jasker, “Garrow’s Law” (related to above)
17. Gary Bell, “Alphas” - as with “Dawson’s Creek,” the show itself is irrelevant (and, incidentally, pretty terrible)
18. Ben Wyatt, “Parks and Recreation”
19. Abed Nadir, “Community”
20. Zoë Alleyne Washburne, “Firefly” and “Serenity”
21. Johnlock, “Sherlock” (BBC) - because I don’t think they’d be on here separately
22. Charles/Erik, “XMFC” - see above
23. James Parks, “Admissions” FRAN KRANZ DOUBLE TIME
24. Dean Winchester, “Supernatural” ***SEASONS 1-3 ARE MY ONLY CANON
25. The entire cast of “Avengers” and “Captain America,” Marvel Movieverse
