Fannish5: Five canon moments that turned a character into a favorite character

Five canon moments that turned a character into a favorite character.


Sometimes, characters simply sneak up on you, and you realize you've grown fond of them, even love them, without being able to pinpoint when this happened. (That's how it went with me with Gwen Cooper in Torchwood, for example; I mean, I know exactly when I realized that where I had been indifferent, I now loved - watching the teaser for Something Borrowed - but I also realized back then I had been fond of her for a while now, so Something Borrowed was not when it happened. However, in some cases I can pinpoint one particular moment in canon.
