I need to read Pride and Prejudice and Zombies. And the Girlschach fic.
And, by the by, if female!Nite Owl brings people the "I don't need to be thin to be successful" inspiration well ... I'm happy for you, really. But the character she's based on is ... um, kind of a canonical failure whose weight isn't seen as a good thing.
Yeah, this. No one in Watchmen is inspirational material, whatever their gender is. Have fun and all, but any time someone starts talking about how their personal AU version of a character is better than the canon character I'm reminded of the whole "Draco in Leather Pants" thing.
