Ooooh, so I’m wondering, James Watson or John Druitt? 😀

Oh that is evil haha. I mean Helen can’t choose between them so how can I? (joking as I know the OT3 isn’t technically canon)

Honestly I’m not dodging the question I will answer, it’s just very difficult as I do love them both. James obviously had much less screen time, so how much of his character have I just headcanoned? John is cursed so again how much is just my interpretation? Although I guess all characters are interpreted.

My instinct was to say “James”. I then immediately took it back and went “no wait John” and then said “James” and then just went ahhh I don’t know.

I got to be honest this is new territory for me as usually I’m very decisive about about being able to rank stuff. Normally I have no problem choosing. I do genuinely feel completely torn.

Gah.

I could be here all night going round in circles.

Alright James final answer. I regret it already. But if I have to pick then James by a microscopic hair. What gives him the edge is the slight sliver of doubt I have about John as we don’t see much of him un-cursed. Complex ‘grey’ characters are often my favourite, they can make mistakes and do the wrong thing but they have to be good/want to be good in their heart. 98% of the time I’m content with my interpretation of John but occasionally I wonder.

So TLDR James 🙂
