enemyofperfectAs a fan, I seem to spend a lot of time rationalizing the random, baffling, and/or downright offensive things canon throws at me -- and actually, it's pretty fun to do, at least when I'm not too upset about the need for it. So why should I wait for weird plot developments to hone my elaborate justification skills?
In that spirit: Make an outrageous statement about a fictional character, and I will attempt to explain why it is self-evidently true.
Recommended fandoms: Person of Interest, Sleepy Hollow, Elementary, Criminal Minds, Burn Notice, Firefly/Serenity, the Star Trek reboot (pre-Cumberbatch only), and -- straying a little farther from the fannish track -- Fairly Legal, Common Law, or the short-lived BBC series Outcasts. Feel free to try anything, though, especially if you wouldn't mind an answer based entirely on Wikipedia blurbs and Google image search. :D
ETA: Oh my gosh, I love you guys, your prompts are the best, and I'm totally going to get to all of them. It might take me a few days! But this is way too much fun for half-measures, I tell you what. <3

Date: 2013-11-04 02:37 pm (UTC)In the spirit of not writing an essay, I'll skim over the many fascinating particulars of Zoe's covert employment -- the details of timing, the agreement she hammered out to protect Wash, the extent to which the Alliance's various hands (blue and otherwise) are or are not kept apprised of each other's actions -- and content myself with demonstrating the simple fact of it, which is pretty easily done: I mean, what else is a woman of her abilities doing playing second fiddle to a guy like Mal?
