                      | See now, once yer tired o' all those arrogant bald foreigners ye should settle down with a properly bearded dwarf.  And if ye think size matters then just take a look at all the stuffed giant heads hangin' over the fireplace. |

 Er, no. My kids will all be short enough as it is with ME as a mother. I do NOT need to add dwarf blood into the mix to make it worse!! Give me an elf any day. I prefer my guys WITHOUT facial hair, thank you. Too scratchy...
 
 
 Seems like the goliaths would be your cup of tea then.  Bald, beardless, and definitely not short.

 Nah, the only "Golioth" I ever crushed on was the Gargoyle from the Disney cartoon. I loved it when he became human for a time- he was definitely shmexy. Then again, as a kid, I once had a thing for one of the TMNT's, too, so... (You'll have to guess which one.)
 
 
 
 The green one, with the shell on his back!
  
 Was it one of the Archie-version Turtles, or the original, non-kiddiefied Eastman and Laird Turtles?

                      | Well, both, actually. Green one, hahaha! Funny, oh great Hamster. I started with the movie, actually, and started watching the cartoon, and then started reading a few comics when I could find them. Still not tellin' which one it was, though! But it should be pretty obvious, given my sense of humor.... |

                      | I'll admit those turtles all looked the same to me.  The only things that really set them apart were their weapons and coloured masks. |

 And no one wants to hazard a guess? I'm surprised.
 
 
 Well I would have said Rafael, but with the sense of humor hint I'll go Michaelangelo.

                      | Well, TMNT did have a first brain-in-a-jar BBEG, always a good thing.  The turtle with the blue mask and twin swords (the leader?) seemed to always talk more than the others combined, though their kawabunga dialogue was all interchangeable. 
 The geeky inventor one with the quarterstaff seemed the most brilliant of the bunch, his intellect might perhaps even rival that of Keanu Reeves.  That's my guess, Alystra (on the basis that he's the turtle I'd probably like most).

                      | Donatello is the one in purple, with the bo staff.  He'd also be my guess, Alystra.  
 Leonardo had the katanas, Donatello the bo staff, Raphael the sais, and Michelangelo the nunchuks.

                      | Annnd- it looks like Ionik Knight wins this round!! Yes it was Mikey, although Donatello came in a close second (I love brainy guys!) Raphael just got on my nerves with his attitude, and Leo was just too darn serious, in spite of being the most mature of the bunch. And for those who enjoy a good chuckle, I have recently started posting an old fan-fic tale on them. It's in the link in my siggy, the one for Mickey's Tavern. I've got several other stories in that sub-forum, too, including my created Marvel hero Red-Back. (I'm rather partial to nerdy guys, as I said, so naturally I have a thing for Spidey, too!) the rest is all my D&D homebrew world stories. 
 Note: If you check out that TMNT one, kindly keep in mind that I originally wrote it in 6th grade! It is almost unchanged in the post from the original, except for minor spelling and grammar corrections, and an extra line or two here and there..)
