Does he have a habit?
His dialogue is heavily laden with pop-culture references, which make no sense to the other characters, since he's on the other side of the galaxy and they therefore have no idea who Mr. Burns and Smithers are. For example.
Zoe: Planet's coming up a mite fast. Wash: That's just cause, I'm going down too quick. Likely crash and kill us all. Mal: Well, that happens, let me know.

Spike's Bitches 25 to Life
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Does he have a habit?
No, but he's frequently insane because evil aliens keep fucking around with his brain. So he still gets to act sweaty and desparate and despairing and have hallucinations. Then he has a plan! And it's the worst plan ever, but generally not too many people get killed and it's only their fault because they know his batting average with plans. Also, he's very hot in leather pants, very bitterly funny (imagine a pretty Munch), and is capable of generating intense sexual chemistry.

He does crazy better than anyone I've ever seen. Plus, pretty.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
And, his arms are amazing.

Those are good arms to have. t /Buffy
(And just *try* to tell me he couldn't play Superman. Go on, I dare you.)

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear
And the character is totally the type to bring you breakfast in bed.

Always Anti-fascist!
Crazy's good...Timmy's crazy, at least if he doesn't get his cookies and beer. Talking to or about people other people can't see: Tommy Gavin and his cousin, fire victims, Jesus, and Mary Magdalene.(my personal pick for most compelling leading man in recent memory) Maybe Frank Furillo imprinted me at a formative stage. If a character doesn't have enough issues to choke a horse, who wants him? ETA: Not bad to look at Tep. A "pretty Munch" would be a novel thing, too. This is where Belzer would say he is that guy, inside-out.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I'm getting the impression that I should watch some Farscape at some point.

The nice thing about Crichton is that he really doesn't come pre-loaded with issues. They damage him up good over the course of the series, however, and the character grows gets way sexier changes.
