School and a Meme
I have recently learned to make an LJ cut. Thank you to kiarasayre for the coding! Whatever the text is to be cut . God, I am sooooo internet-savvy. So, in honor of my Great Learning, I shall use this bit of code in my post. To post a meme that I made up. It is the Awesometastic Fanfiction Meme! Pick 10 characters from your favorite fandom(s) or original characters and watch the awful situations unfold around them! Yay!
So, along with posting this meme, I will also complete it myself with characters from lots of different fanfictions. Um, and as a side note: I am making this list up now as I go. And I don't remember what any of the questions from this meme are. So if it comes out horribly... it's sort-of not my fault. Here's my list:
And heeeere's the meme!
And as if this cut wasn't long enough, here's the questions alone for anyone who wants to do the meme:
1. 3 has become a goth. How did 6 and 10 bring this about?
2. 1 has fallen in love with the new Mary Sue exchange student. How do the two end up together?
3. 8 has just walked in on 2 and 5 having sex. What is their explanation to 8, and how does 8 react?
4. You want to write a songfic about 7's past. What song is it? What is the fic's plot?
5. 5 and 9 must spend a weekend vacation together. Where do they go? What do they do?
6. 4 and 8 team up to learn 10's darkest secrets. How do they do it? What is the secret that they learn?
7. What TV show do 1 and 7 watch together? What is their reaction to the show?
8. 6 has gotten drunk. What does he/she do to 2?
9. When 8 goes to Hogwarts, what House is he/she in? Why?
10. 2 must save 9 during the Zombie Apocalypse. Why? How does he/she do it?
11. What is the "canon evidence" that 3 and 4 are secretly in a relationship? (I don't care if they are in different universes - figure it out!)
12. 6, 5 and 1 form a band. What music do they play? Who plays which instruments?
13. 2 and 3 star in a fic called "The Tears We Cry". What is the fic's summary?
14. How does 7 kill 9 and why?
15. What animal familiar does 5 own?
16. 4 and 1 get into a catfight. Why? Who wins?
17. How do 7 and 10 hook up for a one-night stand?
18. In a high school angst fic, what drug does 4 get addicted to and how does 6 get 9 pregnant? (6 and 9 can't be switched!)
19. 8 and 3 are in a decidedly awkward situation. What is the situation? How did they get into it? How do they get out?
20. 10 has become a Sparklepire (i.e. a vampire with the same attributes as those in the Twilight series by Stephanie Meyer). What is his/her reaction? What does he/she do?
So, along with posting this meme, I will also complete it myself with characters from lots of different fanfictions. Um, and as a side note: I am making this list up now as I go. And I don't remember what any of the questions from this meme are. So if it comes out horribly... it's sort-of not my fault. Here's my list:
- Mytho
- Sirius Black
- Merlin (from the epicly homosexual show of the same name)
- Evaine
- Aragorn
- Nobody Owens
- Light Yagami
- Toph
- Howl Pendragon
- Iago (the Shakespearean villain, not the parrot)
And heeeere's the meme!
- 3 has become a goth. How did 6 and 10 bring this about?
Merlin has become a goth because of Nobody Owens and Iago, you say? Hmmm, interesting. Well, the best way to make Merlin emo is to take his TRUE LOVE Arthur away from him, preferably in a brutal way. So Merlin befriends Nobody Owens, because he seems to make a lot of small-child friends. Nobody takes Merlin to his home in the dark and isolated graveyard to meet his family. So when Iago comes to kidnap Nobody in order to pass him off to Othello as Desdemona's bastard child with Cassio, Nobody's cries for help are heard by no one but Merlin. Merlin runs over to bravely save Nobody, but finds himself hopelessly outfought by Iago. Luckily, Arthur, out of concern for his "manservant" Merlin, rushes onto the scene at the last moment to defeat Iago. And promptly is slain by the older man, because this explanation is getting long. Merlin is absolutely distraught by the death of his lover and starts to paint his nails black and wear bondage pants to express his feelings. - 1 has fallen in love with the new Mary Sue exchange student. How do the two end up together?
MYTHO has fallen in love with the Mary Sue? What the crap?! I guess this must be just after Mytho has gained the feeling of Love. In which case he is turning into evil!Mytho. Who will stop him from turning into an evil raven?! This sounds like a job for Ms Mary Sue, a beautiful, sparkly-eyed ballet dancer who has just come to Kinkan Academy from America. Her sensitive heart has been so severely disturbed by Mytho's fall from the window that she attracts evil!Mytho's attention. He approaches her and asks her to love only him and hate everyone else. She complies very willingly, saying that she will do anything to make Mytho feel better, even allow him to take her precious virginity - I mean heart. The prince within Mytho is stirred by such compassion: so much that his heart breaks! Well, not all of it. Only the bit with Raven blood in it. Once the Raven blood is gone, he finds that he can truely love once again. And of course, he only has eyes for the sweet girl who saved her. For some reason Princess Tutu is absent from this fic. - 8 has just walked in on 2 and 5 having sex. What is their explanation to 8, and how does 8 react?
Toph has just walked in on Sirius and Aragorn having sex? Oh, poor little Toph's innocence! Luckily, since she is blind she can't see exactly why Aragorn and Sirius are making those noises and cannot be turned on by the hawt, manly buttsecks. However, she still asks Aragorn and Sirius why they are rolling around on that bed, as she can feel with her earthbending powers. Aragorn, ever chivalrous, is truly sorry that Toph has been exposed to this and offers to make her some food and then bring her home. Toph is not distracted by this and continues to ask awkward questions. Sirius then throws caution to the winds and gives Toph the Talk. Toph now has a new idea of what Aang and Katara might be doing in a few years' time. - You want to write a songfic about 7's past. What song is it? What is the fic's plot?
Light Yagami is #7. And there's this video on Youtube that puts his character to music PERFECTLY. Is it plagarism to use the same song? No, I didn't think so. Light's songfic would be called, "I'm Bringin' Sexy Back", to the song of the same name by Justin Timberlake. And it's about how he thinks he is the coolest, smartest, sexiest guy on the planet. There would be no angst in this fic - just Light's endless ego. - 5 and 9 must spend a weekend vacation together. Where do they go? What do they do?
Aragorn and Howl Pendragon. Well, both are pretty reclusive, although for different reasons. So they’d agree to go to some faraway naturey place. Let’s just say they go hiking in the Alps, for now. But once they are stuck in the middle of nowhere with no one but each other, they realize that aside from being asocial they are complete opposites. Howl has used some magic to pack a beautiful castle with a four-poster bed and plenty of hot running water into a small, stylish backpack so that he can live in comfort. Aragorn, being a woodsman by nature, knows that when you are in nature you should leave nothing behind but footprints and live on just the bare necessities. So he brings a sack with a blanket, a hunting bow, herbs for healing wounds and making food and water safe, and simple cooking cooking implements. He expects Howl to do the same out of respect to the environment and a mutual will for one hiker to accompany the other through every hardship. Howl, however, only expects Aragorn to keep from getting sweaty and smelly. This fic will eventually end in each man learning to understand the other and patching up their feud with some nice I’m-sorry-sex. - 4 and 8 team up to learn 10's darkest secrets. How do they do it? What is the secret that they learn?
Evaine and Toph team up to learn Iago’s secrets? Well, as the only representatives of the female sex on this list (and suitably bitchy representatives, to boot), I would think that both of them want to know the real reason that chivalrous Othello killed his pure and loving Desdemona. Actually, since this fic is supposed to make some logical sense in context, we’d better say that Evaine and Desdemona had struck up a friendship. Evaine must have been teaching Desdemona how to stop being a damsel-in-distress and kick some male ass. And I bet Desdemona is getting pretty pissed that her husband isn’t spending bedroom-time with her as he had promised. But being a woman of the Renaissance era she can’t complain that she wants to get laid, so instead she complains that she wants kids. When she meets precocious little Toph, they become buddies. (LEAVE ME ALONE I CAN’T THINK OF A BETTER SCENARIO.) So after Desdemona’s death but before the whole story came out, the two friends decide to investigate. They can’t ask Othello because he is dead, but they can ask Iago. And slowly… they realize that it was Iago’s fault. Somehow. Probably because Toph can magically sense who is lying and when. And then they use awesome PG-rated magical spells to bring Iago to justice! - What TV show do 1 and 7 watch together? What is their reaction to the show?
Mytho and Light Yagami - well, what do two almost-sociopaths watch together? Dexter, of course! The emotionless hero is just perfect for the two of them to reflect upon. Light likes the murder for justice ideals, but he finds Dexter to be CARELESS and IMMATURE and NOWHERE NEAR AS SMART AS HE IS. Mytho… well, Mytho doesn’t care what is going on in the show, but watches anyway. Because someone else told him to watch it. - 6 has gotten drunk. What does he/she do to 2?
Nobody Owens has gotten drunk?! That’s not legal until you’re 16! But Sirius probably hasn’t done anything to stop him. In fact, he probably supplied the Butterbeer. And Nobody probably doesn’t do anything very… serious… to Sirius. That sentence just hurt my brain. Nobody and Sirius have the most problematic names. Anyway, the worst Nobody could probably do to Sirius, even while drunk, is ask him painful questions about his past. Which might make the sensitive and fiery Sirius become emo for a while. Then again, Nobody could also pass out from the quick alcohol intake and die before Sirius can help him. That would be very troublesome for the convict to explain. - When 8 goes to Hogwarts, what House is he/she in? Why?
Toph would be a Gryffindor, no question. She’s brave, stubborn, fairly impulsive and hot-headed, and wants to do what’s right no matter the cost. Although she might butt heads with some of the other Gryffindors who think they are helping her out by giving her suggestions. Toph will show the other Gryffindors that she wants to do things her way. Which will probably cause many points to be lost from Gryffindor in the end. - 2 must save 9 during the Zombie Apocalypse. Why? How does he/she do it?
Sirius must save Howl from zombies? Oh, poor Sirius. He probably looses precious time and energy (and blood) fighting his way to Howl’s castle to save the man, only to find that Howl has skedaddled and gone to hide in modern Muggle Wales long before, saving himself without a care for anyone else. If Sirius lives through this, he will probably go and beat up Howl himself. - What is the "canon evidence" that 3 and 4 are secretly in a relationship? (I don't care if they are in different universes - figure it out!)
Merlin and Evaine are not form the same universe, but at least their universes are relatively compatible. They are both magical beings that are looked down upon in their society. But then again, Merlin might be the most tragic and magical person in the universe and still be unable to gain Evaine’s respect - he’s just not smart enough. She would just stand around and make fun of him while he makes a fool of himself or puts himself in danger. But… then again, a woman teasing a male comrade? We all know what that means, don’t we, slashers? - 6, 5 and 1 form a band. What music do they play? Who plays which instruments?
Nobody Owens, Aragorn, and Mytho form a band. Hoo boy. Okay, Nobody is approximately ten years old, and I’ve heard enough ten-year-olds trying to play music to know that he’s probably no good at any instrument yet. Better put him on the drums - and then put a pre-recorded drumbeat track behind him. Aragorn, however, has enough raw skill to be able to do anything you throw at him, and he sings enough in the book to show that he is musically inclined. So maybe he can do vocals to make up for Nobody. Hell, let’s give him lead guitar too; I’m sure he can handle it. And Mytho… I don’t think he has enough voice to sing or enough creativity to play an instrument. He’d to whatever Aragorn told him to do… but not well. Oh, I know! Let’s make him dance. That way he can entertain the audience to offset the fact that the music is so lacking. - 2 and 3 star in a fic called "The Tears We Cry". What is the fic's summary?
Bwhaha, Sirius and Merlin get to have an angst fic together! Okay, short summary: “AU, Crossover. Post-Merlin series, Marauder Era in Harry Potter series. Merlin has lost Arthur to the poison of the Questing Beast. Sirius has lost Remus to his own rashness - after Sirius’s infamous prank on Snape, it seems that Remus will never trust him again. But now it is time for Fate to intervene. What will happen when these two grief-stricken young men meet in a pub, late one snowy night? Fic not as bas as summary, I promise! Read and Review!” Oh, God. I hate myself. - How does 7 kill 9 and why?
How does Light Yagami kill Howl Pendragon and why? Well, that’s not too hard - Light is a bastard with a Death Note. He kills Howl by writing his name into the Note as a message to the world: HE IS JUSTICE. And apparently Howl has done something wrong. Probably Light is just threatened by Howl, who might just be sexier than he is. - What animal familiar does 5 own?
Aragorn doesn’t need an animal familiar - he’s badass enough to kick your ass without one! But if he needs to have one… then he can have the horse that he got while in Rohan. He seems to like horses enough. Or… would it be racist to ask if he can have an elf as a familiar? I mean, really, Legolas counts more as an animal companion than a member of the Fellowship. He has super-senses and limited speech, but very little intellect. - 4 and 1 get into a catfight. Why? Who wins?
Haha, Evaine and Mytho in a catfight! That’s so cute! Well, Mytho is enough of a girl to catfight, isn’t he? Although I can’t imagine that he’d care about anything enough to fight for it. And I can’t imagine Evaine would see Mytho as enough of a threat to fight him back. Maybe if evil!Mytho was trying to take Tristan’s heart away, or if Evaine was kicking a small and defenseless animal around for the fun of it. Anyway, Mytho will fight with the power of ballet and rose petals. And maybe a sword, if Fakir hasn’t already smashed it. But Evaine will kick his ass either way, because she has the power of STARLIGHT. Oh my God, that has got to be the most girly catfight there has ever been in the history of the universe. - How do 7 and 10 hook up for a one-night stand?
Light Yagami and Iago hook up for a night of hate-sex, of course! Maybe L is too busy eating sweets for Light that night. And there is no way Iago is straight, the way he treats his wife in bed. And both guys are evil, vengeful little fuckers - they need someone to have a night of loveless hate-sex with. Then Light kills Iago for his unjust crimes and Iago kills Light for trying to kill him. - In a high school angst fic, what drug does 4 get addicted to and how does 6 get 9 pregnant? (6 and 9 can't be switched!)
Evaine has to get addicted to some drug, and Nobody has to get Howl pregnant. Oh… my. Um, Evaine probably gets addicted to Ecstasy. That way everything looks sparkly again, just like it did when she was up in the sky with the other stars… and… Ex isn’t addictive, is it? Whatever. She’ll get addicted to it anyway because… stars get addicted to things humans don’t. Because high school classes are hard for someone who has never been to school before, in a million-year lifespan. Wouldn’t you try to take the pressure off yourself by making everything shiny and sparkly? You know you would. And now I have to make Nobody get Howl pregnant. Well, if SOMEONE had to get pregnant in that relationship, it would be Howl. Nobody is 10 times the man Howl is, and he hasn’t even reached puberty. Oh, and to make the creepy 20- to 30-year age gap less creepy, I’ll just say that the Witch of the Waste ages Nobody so that he’s Howl’s age. And… they are both still in high school. Anyway, they have sex in the boys’ bathroom on the first floor near the science lab, and mpreg ensues because of an accident with nuclear material that coincidentally happened at the same time. Or because Howl is magical, either way. And, as has just been stated to me by my roommate kiarasayre, Howl would indeed be the most hormonal pregnant woman in the history of women. Haha, Nobody, that’s what you get for not using protection! Let Howl’s cravings for watermelons and fishsauce be a lesson to you. - 8 and 3 are in a decidedly awkward situation. What is the situation? How did they get into it? How do they get out?
Toph and Merlin? I can think of about 100 awkward situations involving the two of them, mostly because of Merlin’s stupidity and Toph’s curiosity. Toph probably sensed the Slash Dragon deep under the earth and heard it talking to Merlin about how Arthur and he MUST have sex before the next full moon, or else Arthur will drop dead! When Toph next meets Merlin, she asks Merlin if he has carried out his mission. Merlin awkwardly answers that he is currently sneaking into Arthur’s room at night, trying to get up the nerve to just jump on him. The awkward situation only ends when Merlin achieves his goal. Yay. - 10 has become a Sparklepire (i.e. a vampire with the same attributes as those in the Twilight series by Stephanie Meyer). What is his/her reaction? What does he/she do?
Hm, Iago has become a Sparklepire, has he? Oh, poor Iago. If he had become a normal, traditional vampire I think he’d be okay with it. But... he wouldn't be okay with Sparklepires. Iago couldn’t take such a blow to his manliness. So he’d probably just stake himself. Or however Sparklepires kill themselves.
