17. Favourite protagonist and why!

Oh, why not just ask for my favourite character and make it even harder? >> No idea. Nimay's easiest and therefore most fun to write just in general; Yamin's best for writing atmosphere and descriptions and all the beauty nobody else notices; Nol's possibly my best fleshed-out character and writing his interactions is so much easier because he can bloody TALK and has no language barriers either; Flannel Flower, who was the protagonist in her own story, at least, is bloody insane~ and has so many different personas that I can do what I like with her and she'll still be in character; Vermilion, who's barely been written, is a tall blond git with a long red cloak, and if you look at my history of favourite characters from tv/books/animé, you'll see this is a huge plus towards him; I wrote that Own fic aaaages ago before I'd gotten to know them in which they were all the protagonists for their individual chapters, and I daresay I'd write that with more character now I know them individually, too.

This is a redundant and impossible question to answer. Who could possibly give a genuine single-character answer to that one, seriously?
