1. Reply to this post, and I will pick five of your icons.
2. Make a post (including the meme info) and talk about the icons I chose.
3. Other people can then comment to you and make their own posts.
4. This will create a never-ending cycle of icon squee.
So SallyMn picked...
1.
My favourite history geeks, Daniel Jackson (Stargate) and Adam Pierson aka Methos (Highlander). (Based on this digital art) Daniel is totally curious about history, and Methos, being the oldest living Immortal is a historical curiosity. There aren't enough crossovers featuring the two of them being geeky.
2.
One of a set of icons I made about plot tribbles (as distinct from plot bunnies), so of course they're from the classic episode "The Trouble With Tribbles"; not that I'm necessarily a fan of Cyrano Jones, but it's so classic (yes, I watched classic Trek when I was a child and it was the only Trek around) and of course plot tribbles are temptation, so of course he would be tempting one.
3.
Doesn't everybody have a "shiny!" icon? I'd wanted to have a "shiny" icon for ages, so I took the opportunity to make it for one of the ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
icon_style challenges. I used the same technique that I'd used to make my completion banner for naarmamo last year. Because a "shiny" icon should be shiny.
4.
UFO is an example of cheesy early 70's SF so I thought I'd use it for a generic "TV SF" icon. The lady with the purple hair is Gay Ellis, one of the supporting characters who works on Moonbase. Only the women wore the purple wigs; when asked why, the series creator returned "Don't you like them?"
5.
(Based on this digital art) Gandalf "Storm Crow", one who rides before the coming storm, squawking warnings like a crow; and the Doctor, one of whose cognomens is "The Oncoming Storm", described by Clive thusly: "When disaster comes, he's there, and he brings the storm in his wake." Of course I found it irresistible to put both these Otherly storm-associated persons into the same image.
