From several people:



1. The character you first fell in love with:

Sam. And maybe Frodo.

2. The character you never expected to love as much as you do now:

Theoden. Bernard Hill really made the Rohan real to me, and Theoden in particular.

3. The character everyone else loves that you don't:

Well, I can't think of a character that everyone else loves... we all have different tastes. But I'm not terribly fond of most of the elves, most of the time. Probably the reason I still haven't read the Silmarillion. Although I have a sneaking interest in Elrond...

4. The character you love that everyone else hates:

Rosie. Although, again, I don't think everyone hates her. I know she doesn't get much time in the book, but the little she does tells me a lot about her, and her relationship with Sam.

5. The character you used to love but don't any longer:

Hmmm. That's a hard one. There are certain takes in fanfic on various characters that I've gotten impatient with, but no one in canon, really.
