Week of Awesome Ladies (Cont)
Sep. 10th, 2011 04:42 pmTrying to squeeze in Day Two of ![[profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
womenlovefest before heading off to an actually love fest (a wedding) this evening.
Day One was Vala (more on her later). For Day Two, I want to share some thoughts on (and fun content for) Mara Jade...
Oh, Mara. Mara is one of those characters who doesn't suffer from fandom hate so much as she suffers from maybe a little too much fandom love. The problem? It's often not good, healthy, well-rounded love. It's creepy boyfriend who puts you on a pedestal, swears that you're perfect, and is violently disappointed when it turns out you're really only human love. It's weird freshman year roommate who steals your clothes, cuts her hair just like yours, and secretly wants to sleep with your boyfriend love.
That said, I love Mara. (Hopefully more in the good way than the bad way, at least most of the time...)
( 'Here's Your Damn Love Song -- A Mara Fanmix' under the cut... )
