Prompt #4: Daisy! The meaning of a daisy flower can be purity, innocence, new beginnings, joy and cheerfulness.

That has Kaylee written all over it! She will always be one of my faves for her light and sweetness and all the laughs. I'm always drawn to characters that fit this mold because no matter what other chaotic/tragic/horrific thing might be going on in the story, Kaylee and characters like her can bring comic relief or warmth or heart through the bleakness. They're also just fun even if they're in a sitcom setting and the stakes are low! (I'm looking at you, Sue Heck.)

Some other shiny daisy honorable mentions: Hurley from LOST (I am positive that he gives good hugs; it is known), Catherine Morland from Northanger Abbey, Edrisa Tanaka from Prodigal Son, and Jerry from The Walking Dead. I really enjoy this character type and am always happy to collect a new fave that encompasses these traits!

She really is. :)

Kaylee's absolutely right for this prompt, and I'm fairly annoyed at the way that shiny, sunny characters in shows tend to be the ones that get put through the worst wringers or killed off when the show wants to indulge in some darker or grimmer storytelling.

[majorr]

On the one hand, I hate when my faves are killed off. On the other, I love some good whump. lol It's a fine line!

[silveradept]

I'm not as fond of whump as others might be, but I do understand how it's appealing to those that love it.

[majorr]

I'm more on the emotional hurt/comfort end of the spectrum. As a Walking Dead fan, there's definitely been times when my enjoyment has hit a wall, ha.

Just a great choice of character, and wonderful fanvid! :D Makes me want to do a rewatch, haha. Kaylee is so great.

[majorr]

I ended up putting an episode on after making the rec. lol It's persuasive!

I love Kaylee, and this was such a fun tribute to her.

[majorr]

Thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed it. :)

Yeeees, Kaylee! Honestly, I love all the Firefly girls, but she's def the cutest. <3
