Sidekick Showcase (previously known as Sidekick Saturday) is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by Jaclyn at JC's Book Haven. There are many secondary characters that are as great as the primaries. In some cases, the sidekicks actually steal the show and you like them better than the heroine or hero. Maybe they didn't have enough page time for how great they were. Anyone can play along! Just do the following:
• Choose a sidekick *or someone other than the hero or heroine* that you would like to put in the spotlight that fits in this week's type
• Share a picture (if possible) and information about the character
• Give the title and author of a book the character can be found in
• Please don't include too many spoilers when describing why the character is such a great sidekick
• Put your link in the Linky thing and comment
**********************************
March's themes revolve around the Oscars and St. Patrick's Day. Since St. Patrick's Day is Monday, I decided to use that as my theme this week. However, I've had a difficult time choosing a sidekick.
My theme is Pluck of the Irish
My choice of character:
Dani O'Malley
from Karen Marie Moning's Fever Series

I very much admire Dani. She's had a hard time in her short life - her mother left her, she was recognized as a sidhe seer, she has amazing strength and speed, and she's been made to do cruel and despicable things. She's seen and done things no child (Dani is 13-14) should see. Yet she still sees things through a child's eyes - with wonder and amazement. She even nicknamed herself the "Mega". Dani is witty, always has a snarky comment. This girl has pluck!

"You suck."
I laughed. "Love you, too, Dani."
She grinned. "I saved you."
"Big-time. And I owe you big-time."
"You can pay be back by telling me about sex." - Dani & Mac, Dreamfever
"Just saying, things ain't always bad just 'cause you don't understand 'em or ain't like 'em. That's like thinking anybody who's smarter or faster is dangerous just 'cause they got more brains or quicker feet. Ain't fair. Peeps can't help how they're born." - Shadowfever
"With the Book hitching rides, hiding on people, guess we're all going to be dressing like skanks for a while, huh? Skintight or skin. Dude, everybody's everything's gonna be hanging out, and some o' those fat chicks at the abbey are gonna gross my eyeballs right outta my head. Muffin tops and camel toes, gah!" - Shadowfever
