meme responses!
First genderswap meme response up here: Golden Age Pevensies & Queen Cassia, picspam & accompanying fic. Yes, that is a new community. I wanted someplace to dump things that wasn't my personal journal. More genderswap replies coming later for: Supernatural, Merlin, Downton Abbey & White Collar.
and now for the Awesome Ladies meme!
the list:
1. Susan Pevensie (Narnia)
2. Keladry of Mindelan (Protector of the Small)
3. Jesse Flores (T:SCC)
4. Amy Pond (Doctor Who)
5. Nikita (Nikita)
6. Lady Mary Crawley (Downton Abbey)
7. Anastasia "Dee" Dualla (Battlestar Galactica)
8. Emily Prentiss (Criminal Minds)
9. Anna Milton (Supernatural)
10. Diana Barrigan (White Collar)

12. Holland Donaghue (OC)
13. River Song (Doctor Who)
14. Jenny Lewis (Primeval)
15. Eowyn (Lord of the Rings)
(do you know how hard this was to narrow down? I wanted to put EVERYONE on there. I switched names in and out for probably half an hour before settling on this. SO MANY LADIES.)
and responses!
grim_lupine: does 2 prefer the company of 4 or 15?
Keladry likes Eowyn better. It's nothing against Amy, but Eowyn and Keladry simply have more in common. They've gone up against the same prejudice and come out the other side totally badass. Also, Amy's rather complicated and confusing, and Keladry finds that difficult.
apple_pathways: 3 and 14 are locked in a cage. Only one can emerge. Who comes out alive?
Jesse Flores vs. Jenny Lewis? Well, Jesse's way more experienced in combat, but Jenny is pretty awesome, and also diplomatic. And also, neither of them would really appreciate being locked in a cage. I'm pretty sure they'd join up and Jenny would be all, "yeah, my friend taught me some computer hacking skills," and Jesse would roll her eyes and go, "I fight computers for a living! lemme at it." And then in the end they would escape and go merrily on their ways. Jenny would probably offer Jesse a job - Jesse would tell Jenny to keep an eye out for thinking computer programs, because they seriously suck.
AND: 1, 2, and 9 are taking a road trip. Who drives, who navigates, and who makes the sandwiches?
Susan drives. This is mostly because she totally doesn't trust either of the other two to have any idea what to even do with a car. Anna insists she can drive and Susan is like NO, you may be my girlfriend but I am not trusting you in the driver's seat, not EVER. Anna sulks but insists on doing all the navigating, because she can go ahead and scout out the terrain. Kel makes sandwiches, and they are surprisingly good, and then she also kills the ghoul they're hunting, which raises her some awesome points in Susan and Anna's opinion. Susan gives Kel some archery tips, because Kel may be good but Susan is awesome. Anna just demonstrates her impressive ability to take down a tree with lightning. Susan and Kel are Unimpressed.
lady_songsmith: 4 and 11 are somewhere skeevy late at night. Why are they there and how do they deal with it?
They are there hunting down an alien monster, of course! Kono is somewhat skeptical of this, but hey. The blue box totally came out of nowhere. Also, Amy and her boyfriends are all very good looking. Kono is not above being shallow. Kono has the gun, Amy has the radiation detector for finding it and also a taser that Kono made her take. "This is not a good place to be at night," she says, and Amy nods and takes it. Nobody bothers them, though, probably because Kono has a gun and maybe a little because there was an alien coming down these streets a little bit ago. Naturally, they get the monster.
lettersandliars: 6 and 8 decide to take over the world. How, why, and are they successful?
Dude, it is Lady Mary Crawley and Emily Prentiss! OF COURSE THEY SUCCEED. And mostly it is through diplomacy and being so awesome everyone is just like, "Well of course they should rule us!" Mary is in it for the wealth, power, and ability to do whatever she wants with her personal life without people going "ooooooooh is she not a virgin?" Emily is in it because, seriously, she is so tired of everyone sucking and trying to kick her out of a show that is obviously ALL ABOUT HER. Once they have taken over the world, they realize they don't really want to rule it, and so set up a democratically elected government and set off to have amazing adventures together while Emily teaches Mary about how to catch serial killers and know whether or not someone is totally scamming you.
animus_wyrmis: Why is six afraid of seven?
... I do not know why, Anastasia is ridiculously sweet and lovely. Perhaps because she can use a gun and Mary cannot? But Dee would totally teach her how to use one! Hmm.
AND: Thirteen, eleven, nine, and four are in a trashy regency romance novel! Who plays what part?
Amy, Anna, River & Jenny Lewis. Jenny Lewis plays the quiet but observant heroine, who is certain that she does not deserve these attentions. Anna Milton plays her time-travelling best friend and confidant, who longs to be normal and have a regular life. Amy Pond plays the dashing and heroic love interest of Jenny, chivalrous and kind but also emotionally closed off. River Song plays her rival for Jenny's affections, a renegade time-traveler with a troubled past (future?)! Anna falls in love with River and tries to win her over! Amy and River duel, miss on purpose, and then congratulate each other on their scars and have a drinking contest! People from River's past (future? no one is really sure with River) try to kill her, and Jenny smashes them over the head with assorted blunt things from around her house! (What do you mean what was River doing in Jenny's house at night?) Amy is wounded in crossfire during a later encounter and Jenny nurses her back to health and then lectures her on the consequences of being a hero. In the end, Jenny and Amy settle down in a nice house and become spies together, while Anna and River head off into space as BFF's (and possibly girlfriends in the future) on a mission.
AND: Why do eight and fifteen break up, and how do they get back together?
Emily's job just put too much pressure on the relationship. Well, that's not really it. It was more that Eowyn was upset that Emily was off hunting down evil people without Eowyn along. Emily knows how much Eowyn enjoys those sorts of things! But Eowyn loves Emily too much to let that be an obstacle, and eventually they get back together. Eowyn joins up with the FBI, Emily helps her with her training, and Eowyn is always waiting up when Emily gets back from a case.
AND: One and five go on an adventure to find ten. Do they find her? And what does three have to do with it?
Diana had key information on an investigation Nikita had been working on. Susan had stumbled upon it on accident and was now working with Nikita, and together they went to find Diana, but she had disappeared! Questioning Diana's girlfriend, they find out that Jesse Flores had been seen nearby. They know her - she's wanted in several murders and disappearances on the West Coast, but what does she have to do with a case of government corruption and fraud? Tracking Jesse down, they discover that the money disappearing has been funneled to a secret government project called Skynet - an attempt to build artificial intelligence. Jesse had been trying to protect Diana and anonymously help her piece things together, but the Skynet people had managed to get to her anyway. Taking off, the three of them track down the clues and manage to find the facility in time to help Diana's escape, which was already in progress, and shut down the Skynet project permanently. Diana returns to her job - Jesse takes off ("It'll have moved on to somewhere else now," she says grimly, but she leaves a way to contact her), and Nikita and Susan return to Nikita's lair, where Susan has moved in. Together, they and Alex continue to work to bring down Division.
mollivanders: What would 2 do with 11 if they went on vacation together?
Kel would make awkward comments on how nice Kono looked, and ask her to teach her how to surf. Kono would oblige, and Kel would prove that in some cases she just really shouldn't try something. Still, Kono would appreciate that Kel had tried, and show off some of her better tricks. They'd trade fighting tips - fighting dirty, fighting with knives, fighting unarmed against knives. Kono would teach Kel how to use a gun. They would be happy together, and easy going. There would be a lot of lying out in the sun at first, and then they'd get bored and go find some evil to root out.
metonomia: If 3, 10, 7, and 1 were colors, which would each be?
Susan would be a dark blue. Jesse's would be a maroon. Diana would be bright purple, and Dee would be a dark green.
and that one meme with your WIP titles. I don't really have a WIP folder, just a writing one, but let's see what I've got in there.
from my writing folder in my documents:
andabovemebuildmysky - Crazy SPN/Narnia crossover with them all stuck in a cabin for a whole winter together during the Croat apocalypse. still has about 1K of writing on paper that needs typing. also editing. A LOT.
cabinfeverbrig - James and Liam in the brig, S1 finale! in which James collapses and Liam freaks.
cabinfevers1layout - self explanatory.
cabinfevers2layout - also self explanatory.
cabinfever - character sketches, some scenes.
contactcabinfeverspinoff - seriously, just ignore my obsession with this story.
edmund + ianto sequel or shenanigans in cardiff with guns - ... uh, yeah.
edmund + ianto sequel v. 2 with more memory loss - ... this one too.
femgenficathon - a Jenny Lewis v. Claudia Brown Primeval fic that never got finished for the Fem Gen Ficathon.
mbs.thefantasticfouradrenalinejunkies - The Mysterious Benedict Society, a grown-up OT4 of awesome.
sg1 is kind of crazy especially in prison - me and song messing about with how often the SG-1 team gets thrown in prison. Basically crack.
from my gmail folders:
contactscenes - just what it says on the tin.
monster squad mix - me creating a mix that fits the themes of a story I want to tell someday. (Said story being something between Primeval, Torchwood, Supernatural and Criminal Minds.)
i was asleep while you were dying - Hardy Boys fic! Joe gets kidnapped, Frank finds him. If it ever gets finished, a gift for a Yuletide prompt.
