2. Is he/she important to the general plot?
3. Can you relate to this character at all? Does he/she grip you emotionally?
4. How much do you like the fandom that this character comes from?
5. Do you ship this character with any other character? Or, are you particularly intrigued by his/her relationship with any other character(s)? (romance-wise or platonic)
6. Is there anything about the character you would change?
7. If you were in the fandom with this character or knew this character in real life, how would you see yourself interacting with him/her? Would you get along well? Fall in love with him/her? Dislike? Have a friendly rivalry?
8. Does this character make the cut as one of your all time favorites (if you like) or least favorites?

Gee, pick a tough one, whydontcha???? :-)

1. What is your opinion of this character? If you like, explain why you like him/her.
I really like her. She's so sweet and adorable, gets on with everyone. Plus she's very cute.

2. Is he/she important to the general plot?
I think all the characters are important to the plot as they all seem to impact each other in various ways. I would have loved to have seem more Kaylee-centric eps and if it hadn't been cancelled so soon, we probably would have gotten to know more about her.

3. Can you relate to this character at all? Does he/she grip you emotionally?
Definitely. I'm very much a 'tom-boy' always have been and yet I loved Kaylee's sheer delight when she saw that big frilly pink dress and wanted to do the whole dress-up to go to the ball. I relate to her as a woman in a male dominated work-force. I was a courier for about 20 years and had numerous times when someone questioned why the company didn't send a man to pick up a particularly large and/or bulky item or lots of heavy boxes and furniture.

4. How much do you like the fandom that this character comes from?
Don't have that much interaction with Firefly fandom. I know they are pretty good when it comes to raising funds and awareness for charity. One thing I remember was when Serenity was released in theatres, I went to a couple pre-release screenings. I'd done my best to remain as spoiler free as possible, so was of course, shocked beyond belief when a major character was killed off during the movie. What I did love was that at the next screening, those who knew what would happened were really good about not spoiling it for all the first-time viewers. I've been at a lot of other movies where repeat viewers would totally spoil things while still in line for tickets.

5. Do you ship this character with any other character? Or, are you particularly intrigued by his/her relationship with any other character(s)? (romance-wise or platonic)
I only ever got the big brother/little sister vibe between Mal and Kaylee. I would have loved to have seen her and Inara get together as I think she had a rather big crush on her. But, I would have okay with her being with Simon in future eps as she really did love him and above all, I'd want her to be happy.

6. Is there anything about the character you would change?
Not really. I love how she was written and I especially love how Jewel Staite played her.

7. If you were in the fandom with this character or knew this character in real life, how would you see yourself interacting with him/her? Would you get along well? Fall in love with him/her? Dislike? Have a friendly rivalry?

I would love to hang out with her. Hell, I would sleep with her as I pretty much fell in love with her the first time I saw her on screen and I think she's just so gorgeous and sexy in a really sweet and innocent kind of way.

8. Does this character make the cut as one of your all time favorites (if you like) or least favorites?
Definitely top 10. If I just listed female characters, then she'd make the top 5.

9. Would you hype up this character (if you like) or warn about this character (if you dislike) to someone new to fandom?

Certainly hype her up. She's such a great character, not your average blonde bimbo that usually bore me to tears.

YESSSSSSSS KAYLEE/INARA <3333

I also have a huge soft spot in my heart for Kaylee/Jayne, for whatever reason. I dunno. I guess I like the contrast? She could soften him up a bit.

Yay thanks for answering!
