1.2.7 William Walter Wordsworth (Professor)

William aka Professor's characteristic and physical appearance is probably the easiest to find a suitable actor out of all the roles. He's the typical British gentleman who is super intelligent and loves to invent random stuff from useful to useless. Although we can probably list more than 10 actors that can portray his character quite perfectly, after hitting who I considered THE MARK, I stopped searching for anyone else.

Yes, I do realize that his official age is about a decade give or take older than Caterina and Kate, it even shows in both anime and manga adaptions; but idk, I feel like since a lot of time film versions hold adjustments to their liking, William's age isn't really a serious issue (though for his background story, which would in someway involve with his age, is something I would like to elaborate more, probably will discuss it in another post later.) Anyway, here goes my choice; again this is just me, feel free to nominate and share whoever you think that could be even more suitable!

Luke Evans:
I admit I've only seen him in Furious 6, but based on that spectacular performance alone, I honestly think he's perfect for this role. He has the look, the accent, the ability to act calculating, smart, and with a weird sense of humor (he also does cruelty quite well, though I don't think it's needed for this character).

If his age is an issue for the fans, I can only say that by the time William has major appearances in the 5th and 6th story arcs, Luke would probably look even more like the character's supposed age (on the other hand, let's just hope that my choices for Caterina and Kate won't age horribly by then).

1.2.1 Abel Nightroad (Krsnik 02) AND 3.1 Cain Nightroad (Krsnik 01)

I believe due to the likeness of those two, they should be played by the same actor (just have him with two hair colors.)

However, I really can't picture anyone as the two Nightroads at the moment! Would really like to hear some thoughts!

1.2.2 Esther Blanchett (Lady Saint of István)

Out of the 3 main Ax Agents that are heavily featured in R.O.M. story arcs, Esther is the only one I can name an actress to play for the character (after searching for people who I can remember)!

Alexandra Daddario:
I think she can suffice (at least appearance-wise, she really could rock with red hair! =D ). Although she's not exactly young, her face has a certain youthfulness to it, and she does have brilliant blue eyes. And yeah, she rocked the red-ish hair in Percy Jackson & the Olympians: The Lightning Thief, (okay, so wiki said she was brunette in the 1st film... well, idk, when I watched it on the plane, it really look a bit on the red side to me, so I imagine she'd look equally gorgeous with actual red hair.)

In the same film series, stunt-double or not, her character shows good fighting ability; she also expressed that she was more trained for the 2nd film, so yes, with good preparations, I think she could really handle Esther's character; plus, she's not exactly a first-tier actress yet, (hope I'm not offending any of her fans; I mean realistically when thinking about actresses in her generation or younger, her name usually wouldn't be the first one to pop out; it'd be actresses like Amanda Bynes, Dakota Fanning, Ellen Page, Hayden Panettiere, Lindsay Lohan or the suddenly famous Jennifer Lawrence that people tend to think of.)

Although she already had a major role in a film franchise, Percy Jackson film adaptation series (as of now) isn't exactly considered successful (based on critiques an reviews); I think if she does Esther's character justice (preferably the manga and novel characterization, rather than the anime ver.), it could really be THE breakthrough!

The Vatican - Leaders

1.1.1 Alessandro XVIII (Pope)

This is a hard one, as it also deals with just which adaption of appearance would we want to use to based on? (Would probably further discuss in another thread, but until then I'll just express my thoughts about that right here) I think then younger portrayal (age 12-14? (officially stated as 14)) in the manga made sense, as it seemed a bit SAD for an almost-adult (age 17-19?) to act/react so cowardly in the other two versions.

That being said, I think it'd be extra hard if trying to follow and go for a young teen actor, as AGE would definitely show throughout the later films. So personally I think if they stated the character was first 15 when we met him, that he's supposed to be in his mid-teens towards late-teens, it would be more doable.

Factoring all the above, I can only think of two names (I'm not entirely happy with either of them, so please give suggestions!), and if the first film were out in 2021 (TB's 20th anniversary), 2026 (25th), or 2031 (30th), they're both probably be too old to be him anyways, but here goes (we can hope that they still look youthful, or the wonders of CGI (LOL)):

Logan Lerman:
I've only seen him in the Percy Jackson film adaptation series, and thought he did alright, not overly brilliant, but alright nonetheless. I thought he was cute in the 1st film, but weird looking in the 2nd (probably because of the hair, so hope I'm not offending his fans xP). Would like to see how he handle this character that is so meek, yet holds great importance to the Vatican.

Alessandro XVIII - Trinity Blood - Alessandro XVIII
Cole Sprouse:
Okay I've only seen him in The Suite Life of Zack & Cody and it was even stated on Wikipedia that he wasn't active anymore (as of now.) But if he ever wanted to come back to acting, this time the next level on a movie that's not Direct-to-video, well, this may be it! I chose him over his brother Dylan because physique-wise, Dylan was always more bulky (chubby?); and Cole just did an excellent job on his role, who seemed always concerned and one with a higher moral code of honor. So yeah, I think if he wanted to, he can portray the young Pope well.

My Ships from X-Men & Related X-titles

(Originally written and posted on a certain fan fiction site.)

For X-Men and related X-titles, canon couples/past couples/possible couples I enjoy and appreciate include (not in any specific order):

• [Scott/Emma] idk, I loved them during Joss Whedon's Astonishing X-Men, and when I tried to find out other people's opinions, it seemed like there are at least a great portion of fans that supported them as well. That being said, I however, have yet to find a lot of decent close 616-continuity based fanfics for them. Maybe it's just the searching and the site function, but it almost seemed like Jean is in every story for the couple. grrr.
• [Sean/Emma] It was by total happy accident that lead me to this ship. Thank you fanfiction!! I went reading Generation X because of it (20th anniversary!). I hope that now Sean has been resurrected, fans would start shipping them again, as Scott and Emma currently has a relationship next to nothing.
• [Piotr/Kitty] Used to adore them and was heart-borken about their breakup; but as I'm fairly unimpressed with Kitty's recent attitude/characterization, I'm open to what comes next. Don't care for [Piotr/Neena] , not sure if it was meant for long lasting so I'm not judging it yet; [Bobby aka Iceman/Kitty] was a total joke for me sorry, glad it seemed somewhat over? Would love to see Bobby and Angelica aka Firestar work it out instead.
• [Logan/Ororo] Although Logan seemed to have a huge fan base, I think there's equally a lot of people that loath him and love to bash him, I was happy to see this ship this time happening more officially, but it seemed somehow very subtle comparing to other couples in comics; I've again yet to find many [RoLo] close 616-continuity based fanfics, would love to see some adventures about the headmaster and headmistress of JGS. I also seemed to find way more [Logan/Jean] fics on this site, that or [Victor aka Sabretooth/Logan] , and I actually dunno which is more disturbing. (sorry if I offended people rooting for these two pairings. Yes, I can see both happening, I just personally don't prefer them.)
