Could be you want bits of X but with elements of Y. Could be there’s one who you’d love to be like overall. Share it below!

Galadriel, I wouldn’t be afraid of anything
Good call!
Lots of good choices already here … I’m going to go with Nadja from What We Do in the Shadows, she’s bold and smart, and ¿supportive? Also, kills a lot if assholes.
Jessica Fletcher (Murder She Wrote). Observant, kind, good writer, independent, makes friends with ease, sticks up for the truth, makes the police look incompetent.
Now that I’m considering this, I’m finding the idea of safe-haven-grandma attractive. Smart. Knows her herbs and medicinals. Bakes a kickass carrot cake. Takes in strays of all sorts for a little time or not. Kind of like the oracle from Matrix, but less secretive.
Kathryn Janeway and Ellen Ripley. Both for the same reason; leadership ability.
I was going to go with some elements of Xena, but you got me with Ripley. Strong, competent, no patience for foolishness, cat-approved.
Oh Ripley is a good one! She’s brilliant
Without muss, fuss or ego, she just takes control of whatever situation she finds herself in. And she’s strong enough that everyone accepts it because she leads by example and proves that she knows what she’s talking about every time.
Quiet confidence.
Very much reminds me of Tyrion Lannister telling his grandson that any man who has to keep saying he’s the king is no true king.
Yes, and she knows her own mind. She respects chain of command, and doesn’t usurp others, but then monitors the situation and manages it. She’s really impressive
I guess I should point out that I’m a cis male. I didn’t even look at what community I was in. Just saw an interesting topic on my “all” feed and immediately thought of two people I look at for inspiration in management. My apologies for intruding. Didn’t mean to at all. Didn’t even notice the community name. I’ll show myself out.
Thanks for your honesty! And all the best 😊
You could smash all the traits of the women on the Serenity into one, and that would be the greatest human ever.
Zoe, the leader and badass fighter? Check. Kaylee, the effervescent mechanical prodigy, who acts as both Mom and moral compass? Check! Inara, the sensual stateswoman that brings a modicum of legitimacy to an otherwise OUTLAW operation? Yup. And River? Who doesn’t want a wispy little dancer that can utterly destroy a Reaver raiding party, singlehandedly?
I couldn’t come up with anything but you nailed it!
As a kid I really related to Hermoine from Harry Potter, I guess I still stand by that (just ignore JK Rowling). 😄
“It’s levio-SAH, not le-VIO-sa.”
Haha yep! Shame about her. She’s known for Harry Potter and hatred
I’d really like to have Cersei from GoT manoeuvring skills and political acumen, although I’d only use them for good. I’d love to be as fierce as Gemma from Sons of Anarchy but with Willow from Buffys sweet nature. Overall there’s no one character I’d want to be.
awww, I love Willow 🥰 such a good choice
