I don't want to study for my anthropology and art history midterms, so instead I'm going to do this meme that's been going around my flist. Yay for procrastination!
Choose twelve characters from your fandoms, then answer the questions under the cut. Do not look at the questions beforehand.
1. River Tam, Firefly
2. Jayne Cobb, Firefly
3. Sara Sidle, CSI
4. Ronon Dex, Stargate Atlantis
5. Elizabeth Weir, Stargate Atlantis
6. Desmond Hume, Lost
7. Susan Ivanova, Babylon 5
8. Logan/Wolverine, X-Men movieverse
9. Marie/Rogue, X-Men movieverse
10. Danny Messer, CSI: NY
11. Laura Roslin, Battlestar Galactica
12. Billy Keikeya, Battlestar Galactica
1. Who would make a better college professor, 6 (Desmond Hume) or 11 (Laura Roslin)? What subjects would they teach?
Undoubtedly Roslin. I love Desmond, but he's not very professor-y. Laura, for starters, actually was a teacher--an early childhood teacher, granted, but still. And being president and all, she certainly has an air of dignity and authority about her. (Not that all profs have that, but that's another story.) As for what she would teach...hmmm. Some kind of theology or religious studies, maybe. Or possibly political science.
2. Do you think 4 (Ronon Dex) is hot? How hot?
Ronon is hot. Really hot. I actually didn't think he was hot at all when he was first introduced--the dreads really turned me off. But then again, I didn't like much of anything about Ronon when he was first introduced. He's grown on me a lot since then. So yes, he's definitely hot. And quite honestly, I can't imagine him without the dreads anymore.
3. 12 (Billy Keikeya) sends 8 (Logan) on a mission. What is it, and does it succeed?
BAHAHA. There's no way in the world Logan would ever take orders from Billy. I adore Billy, but Logan would probably eat him for lunch.
4. What is or would be 9's (Rogue)'s favorite book?
Hmmm. Well,
thetoofster and I have this idea that after she graduates, Rogue would be an English teacher at the mansion (in addition to being an X-Woman a member of the X-Men, of course). So she would probably enjoy some kind of classic. Like "The Old Man and the Sea" or something.
5. Would it make more sense for 2 (Jayne Cobb) to swear fealty to 6 (Desmond Hume), or the other way around?
*dies* I'm going to say it would make more sense for Desmond to swear fealty to Jayne, just because Jayne's so very much not the swearing-fealty type. But really, swearing fealty to Jayne would be pretty stupid, and Desmond's not stupid, so...neither option really makes sense. :p
6. For some reason, 5 (Elizabeth Weir) is looking for a roommate. Should she share a studio apartment with 9 (Rogue) or with 10 (Danny Messer)?
Well, I'm sure Sheppard would be really ticked off if she shared an apartment with some other guy, so Danny's out. Elizabeth and Rogue could room together, though. That would be fun. They could discuss their respective really hot boyfriends.
7. 2 (Jayne Cobb), 7 (Susan Ivanova), and 12 (Billy Keikeya) have dinner together. Where do they go, and what do they discuss?
Well, poor Jayne and Billy live in space, so they never get anything really good to eat. Actually, Ivanova lives in space too, but I think the food is generally better in her corner of space than in Jayne's or Billy's. So Ivanova would probably take the two of them to a really nice restaurant. Maybe she would invite them to Babylon 5 and they could all go to Fresh Air. Ivanova and Billy would probably end up discussing politics or something. Jayne would get hopelessly bored and either fall asleep at the table or go off and pick somebody's pocket.
8. 3 (Sara Sidle) challenges 10 (Danny Messer) to a duel. What happens?
Haha! Well, seeing as though they're both CSIs, it probably wouldn't really be an actual duel. More like a contest to see who can solve a case faster, or something. Sara would win, because she owns. Or, maybe it could be a camera duel like Sara and Grissom did in that one episode with the corset guy. That was so cute.
9. If 1 (River Tam) stole 8 (Logan)'s most precious possession, how would he get it back?
Ohhh my. River versus Logan. That would be fun. Hmm. Well, for starters, I'm not really sure what Logan's most precious possession would be. He doesn't really have much in the way of possessions. Scott's motorcycle, maybe? *snarf* Whatever it is, he would probably attempt to use brute force to get it back. He's not really big on subtlety.
10. Suggest a title for a story in which 7 (Susan Ivanova) and 12 (Billy Keikeya) both attain what they most desire.
Um. "The Final Twenty-Four Hours of Alfred Bester and Lee Adama."
11. What kind of plot device would you use if you wanted 4 (Ronon Dex) and 1 (River Tam) to work together?
Well, I would have the Atlantis team go through the Stargate to Persephone or some other world where the Firefly crew was currently staying. The Reavers would attack and knock out the DHD or something, thus leaving the Atlantis team stranded. They would be forced to team up with the Firefly crew to fight for their very lives and the survival of the known universe! It would be very dramatic. River could show off her mad fighting skillz and Ronon would be very impressed. Teyla would be jealous. Simon would be horrified.
12. If 7 (Susan Ivanova) visited you for the weekend, how would you get along?
I would be intimidated like whoa. I would probably just huddle in the corner and stare at her in awe. Which, of course, she would find incredibly annoying.
13. If you could command 3 (Sara Sidle) to perform any one task or service for you, what would it be?
Set me up with Warrick. Heh heh.
14. Does anyone on your friends list write or draw 11 (Laura Roslin)?
Hmm, I don't think so. I don't know anyone who writes BSG fanfic.
15. If 2 (Jayne Cobb) had to choose sides between 4 (Ronon Dex) and 5 (Elizabeth Weir), which would it be?
I think he would go with Elizabeth. Jayne loves the ladies.
16. What might 10 (Danny Messer) shout while charging into battle?
"STOP! NYPD!"
17. If you chose a song to represent 8 (Logan), which song would you choose?
"I'M TOO SEXY." OMGGGG.
18. 1 (River Tam), 6 (Desmond Hume) and 12 (Billy Keikeya) are having dim sum at a Chinese restaurant. There is only one scallion pancake left, and they all reach for it at the same time. Who gets to eat it?
River. No question. If they resisted, she would kill them with her brain.
19. What might be a good pick-up line for 2 (Jayne Cobb) to use on 10 (Danny Messer)?
O.O Um, no. Just...no.
20. What would 5 (Elizabeth Weir) most likely be arrested for?
Uh...disobeying the Geneva Convention? Then Sheppard would heroically break her out of prison. *nod*
21. What is 6's (Desmond Hume)'s secret?
I don't know, but I hope to find out when Lost starts back up IN LESS THAN A WEEK YAY!
22. If 11 (Laura Roslin) and 9 (Rogue) were racing to a destination, who would get there first?
Well, that depends. If it's a footrace, then definitely Rogue. She's a superhero, for cryin' out loud. If it was a technology-based race, Laura would probably win. I bet the Galactica could outrun the Blackbird, seeing as though Galactica is a spaceship and all.
23. What did 7 (Susan Ivanova) do with question 23?
She stripped it naked and threw it out an airlock.
24. "1 (River Tam) and 9 (Rogue) reluctantly team up to save the world from the threat posed by 4 (Ronon Dex)'s sinister secret organization. 11 (Laura Roslin) volunteers to help them, but it is later discovered that 11 (Laura Roslin) is actually a spy for 4 (Ronon). Meanwhile, 4 (Ronon) has kidnapped 12 (Billy Keikeya) in an attempt to force their surrender. Following the wise advice of 5 (Elizabeth Weir), they seek out 3 (Sara Sidle), who gives them what they need to complete their quest." What title would you give this fic? Name three people on your friends list who might read it. Name one person who should write it.
Sweet mother of Seti. Um..."The Day Ronon Got Taken Over by a Goa'uld." As to who would read it...
thetoofster might. I have no idea who else. And I should certainly hope that no one would be insane enough to write it. :p
25. If you had to walk home through a bad neighborhood late at night, would you feel safer in the company of 7 (Susan Ivanova) or 8 (Logan)?
While I have absolutely no doubt that Ivanova is more than capable of kicking serious butt, I have to go with Logan on this one. He's got muscles the size of tree trunks, regenerative powers, an adamantium skeleton, nine-inch claws that pop out of his fists, and a serious protective streak. No-brainer.
