Oh, and I am up for that meme where you ask me to tell you three or more things about my private personal fanon for characters in shows, comics, films and books that I care about. Shows, right now, would be Jossverse, Grey's, Betty, Heroes, Nip/Tuck, Dirt, Big Love, and so on.

Tell me about Callie, from Grey's anatomy?

1. When Callie was eight, she read a lot of books about the ballet. Whenever her family went to New York, her father took her to see the ballet, but he wouldn't let her take classes. 'You're my little cupcake,' he'd say, 'and dancers are breadsticks.' When she pressed him, he told her that no daughter of his was ever going to dance in public for money; 'I work so that you don't have to do that sort of thing', he said. She wanted to be a doctor even more than she had wanted to dance, or to have a pony, but it always bothered her that it was one of the things that her father would let her be.
2. Bones for Callie are things with clear firm edges that are broken, and can be made whole with pins and pressure; she does not like organs like the heart, or the brain, that are soft and can be crushed and have to be squeezed and stitched. She hates mess, that's the thing, and keeping your emotions clear and focused is the least messy thing she knows; when your heart is broken, there is no putting it back together with pins and pressure.
3. Callie slept with Mark because she felt life owed her one small sin; everyone around her gets away with sin all the time and she knows that she is a good person. Addison is a good person too, Callie knows that, and yet she sins all the time, so maybe it doesn't matter. She wanted to know just once how it would feel.

YES. I especially love numbers one and two. I hope the show gets into Callie, her history and her family a bit more.
