In the corner of fandom I lurk in, this would be Laurie. I have my reasons for liking her, but people think they're not good enough. D:

I have no persecution complex, I swear. I'm sure there are fans of her out there.

i'm pretty indifferent to laurie, but i do sympathize. my favorite characters are usually the ones everyone else hates. i know how you feel! ignore everyone else, you're entitled to like who you like!

[identity profile] aubuyn.livejournal.com 2009-03-19 09:56 pm (UTC)(link)
Your disco!Dojima. Pretty bitching boss.

Actually, I like Laurie as well! I've been searching for good fanfic with her (and Manhattan) but haven't found much D:

[identity profile] biocaam.livejournal.com 2009-03-19 10:06 pm (UTC)(link)
:D

Sadly, I haven't found much fic with her in it at all, either. Whatever happened to Rule 34?

[identity profile] aubuyn.livejournal.com 2009-03-19 10:09 pm (UTC)(link)
Man, I don't know. You figure after that particular scene with Dr. M there'd be SOMETHING floating around ;___;

[identity profile] biocaam.livejournal.com 2009-03-19 10:11 pm (UTC)(link)
YES, THIS. I'm a fan of Dan/Laurie too, but I can't even find any of that as well.

[identity profile] cyanfox27.livejournal.com 2009-03-19 09:58 pm (UTC)(link)
You're talking to a Laurie fan. :) She's always been my favorite, to be honest, and I don't understand the amount of hate she gets, but then, I'm pretty used to liking unpopular characters. (My favorite justification for the hate was "Oh, she spends so much time whining and crying about girly things." Eh...really?)

[identity profile] biocaam.livejournal.com 2009-03-19 10:11 pm (UTC)(link)
...What? Did they read the same thing I did? O_o Sure, Laurie had her problems, but that was part of the reason I liked her -- she was the most relatable character to me. She felt human; we saw her sad, happy, in pain, angry, frustrated. This was a wider display of emotions than I saw in any other character, except for maybe Dan.

[is just rambling now]

[identity profile] cyanfox27.livejournal.com 2009-03-19 10:22 pm (UTC)(link)
But don't you see? Male angst>>>female angst. Darn wimmin need to toughen up and leave the tears to the guys.

Seriously though, I agree. That's why I liked Laurie so much: I could relate to her the best out of all the characters. ^^ What's wrong with that?

[identity profile] matitablu.livejournal.com 2009-03-19 10:42 pm (UTC)(link)
IAWTC.

[identity profile] matitablu.livejournal.com 2009-03-19 10:41 pm (UTC)(link)
THISSSS SO MUCH THIS. You summed up in a few words all the reasons why I like Laurie, but as [livejournal.com profile] cyanfox27 said, if a male character angsts he's a woobie who needs a hug, if a female characters does that she's whiny and bitchy. *rolleyes*

[identity profile] oldstarnewshine.livejournal.com 2009-03-19 10:02 pm (UTC)(link)
*invades your thread, waves pathetic solidarity flag* Laurie fan over here, feeling your pain.

[identity profile] biocaam.livejournal.com 2009-03-19 10:12 pm (UTC)(link)
She needs more love, really. D: I'm cool with people not thinking she's great or anything, but she doesn't deserve most of the hate she gets.

[identity profile] vivalana.livejournal.com 2009-03-19 10:49 pm (UTC)(link)
Exactly. Especially considering how easily the other characters' flaws are accepted as part of the package.

Laurie is also a packaged deal.

[identity profile] militarypenguin.livejournal.com 2009-03-19 10:37 pm (UTC)(link)
'nother Laurie fan here.

[identity profile] vivalana.livejournal.com 2009-03-19 10:47 pm (UTC)(link)
I loved Laurie. She was probably the least screwed-up of the bunch (not that she didn't have her screw-ups), and had a sense of snark.

Fitting.

[identity profile] yatsirch.livejournal.com 2009-03-19 11:09 pm (UTC)(link)
I like her too! Rorschach was my favorite in the film, but he freaked me out too much in the comic. Whereas Laurie stuck with me the most after first reading Watchmen several years ago. The plot twist with her father basically blew my mind, since I had also been loathing him up until that point and her reaction broke my heart. I also related to her response to the squid!carnage in New York so hard.

I was kinda dissapointed they cut down on her bitchiness and smoking in the film though. Dangit, I wanted to see her snarking and telling druggies to get the hell across the walkway into Archie during the fire rescue.

Fellow Laurie-fan over here! [waves]

[identity profile] sara-rojo.livejournal.com 2009-04-01 03:57 pm (UTC)(link)
The thing with Laurie is she is always complaining about how her life sucks (which I can understand, even if compared to the other characters, her life a)doesn't suck, and b)she didn't do anything to better it) and then spends the whole GN saying "I wish Jon were here to fix this", "If Jon were here...", "Jon, just (do)" -imperative-, and that sounds so childish and immature. I mean, just because a god-like entity is inclined to do whatever she wants (for no good reason at all), it's no excuse for not doing anythig herself and hiding behind his legs all the time
She also a bit faux feminism, in that she bitches about how his mother lets herself be treated (understandable) and then is just a pretty girl hanging onto a man's arm for almost all her life, not earning anything for her own but bitching about his work. Oh, woman, lay off, you can afford to eat at all because he's working, and as much as that IS fucked up (what happened to getting a job, uh?Even the mother your badmouth so bad got one), it's what YOU chose, so don't f-ing complain
Sorry this turned into a rant, but I kept remembering why I didn't like this character at all. Even Daniel, richie boy that he is, writes in journals, for God's sake, even if that wouldn't earn him a living...
