lazy_neutrinoIn a house fire, would 6 (Hermione Granger) save 9 (Foggy Nelson, Daredevil’s law partner) or 3 (Lieutenant Whorf)? (Both is not possible; neither is)
9. Hermione is a quick-thinking girl. She would figure that Lieutenant Whorf, strong, fit and combat-trained, could take care of himself in an emergency, whereas Foggy, pudgy and slow-thinking, would not.
(If you had picked either 5 - The Silver Angel - or 7 - Q - you would have picked two characters who are, by human standards, virtually omnipotent. They would just have turned the fire off.)
patchworkmindIf 1 (Reed Richards), 3 (Lieutenant Whorf), 9 (Foggy Nelson) and 15 (Molly Weasley) were in a 1,000-meter relay race against 2 (Peeves), 7 (Q), 8 (Willow Rosenberg) and 13 (The Swamp Thing), who would win? Also, if 4 (Dr.Doom), 10 (Binary) and 12 (Lieut. Harry Kim) were in the stands rooting for their friends in the race, would a fight break out and why?
Reed Richards and Lieut.Whorf are both physically very fit, although Reed is no longer a very young man. They would give a good account of themselves, but then the baton would pass to Foggy Nelson (fat and unfit) and Molly Weasley (not what you’d call athletic). And on the other side, Peeves, Q and Willow are all not only very powerful, but also not renowned for high standards of sportsmanship. At least two, possibly three, of them would cheat. And the Swamp Thing is capable of being wherever he wishes, so long as there are vegetables of any sort there. HOWEVER! Team One has a priceless asset - a good lawyer. Whatever Team Two pull in order to win, you can be sure that Foggy Nelson would find in the capacious vaults of his memory some precedent to get them disqualified.
rfachir1 (Reed Richards) invites 2 (Peeves) 3 (Lieut.Whorf), 4 (Dr.Doom) and 15 (Molly Weasley) over for dinner.
What is served? What do they bring over to drink? Who drinks too much and who walks them home? Who sticks around to help clean up?
This can only function as a comedy of errors. Reed Richards invites Dr.Doom for a sort of summit conference - the two being major enemies from of old. Doom fails to inform him that he is being pestered by Peeves, who decided that Doom (who, as a sorcerer, was a former Hogwarts student) would make a fun target. At the back of Doom’s mind is that Peeves, let loose in Richards’ labs, could make as much havoc as a team of mad Super-Skrulls, and at any rate he would enjoy seeing him dealing with his worst enemy. At the same time, Molly Weasley is returning Franklin Richards, Reed and Sue’s child, to their parents: Agatha Harkness, his nanny, who is a witch. handed him to her when she was called away suddenly. So Molly happens to be in the FF building. The Richardses know that Agatha is a witch, so Molly does not need to keep any secrets with them.
Of course, the moment Peeves sees all the complicated gear and computers, he goes mad, starting to make all the trouble that Doom foresaw. Among other disasters, Whorf is pulled out of spacetime when Peeves starts fooling around with the time machine - once Dr.Doom’s, now Reed’s. That is when even Doom decides enough is enough. Reed, Doom and Whorf team up to try and capture the infernal poltergeist, but it is only when Molly happens on the scene and recognizes Peeves that he is subdued - she informs him that as soon as she gets back home, she will inform both Professor Dumbledore and the Bloody Baron about him. Doom approves, and wonders why he had never thought of that himself. Sue Richards tells him very sweetly: “Because you are not ruthless enough, Victor dear. You should try being a mother some time, that would teach you about really being merciless.”
The dinner is provided by Molly and Sue Richards, and it is simple but excellent - French onion soup, steak, a fresh salad and fresh fruit to finish. Peeves is fed by Molly, while loaded with mystical and scientific bonds from all the heroes and villain, and screeching like a baby. Dr.Doom, to show he has class, provides a couple of top vintages from his cellars.
5 (the Silver Angel), 6 (Hermione Granger), 7 (Q) and 9 (Foggy Nelson) go to the movies together. What do they decide to see?
The Silver Angel and Hermione would be all for a chick flick, while Foggy would love a classic action movie - John Wayne or the like - or a European arthouse item. But Q is an omnipotent nuisance. He insists on providing the movie himself, and casts himself as the protagonist, producing a ludicrously swaggering imitation of a Hollywood star, until the Silver Angel gets sick and starts manipulating the light (as is her power) to mess with his performance. He never even realizes! Eventually SA overwrites his “flick” with a series of old Warner Brothers cartoons. They all walk out of the movie house together, Q complimenting himself about his talent as a moviemaker, the rest giggling.
Where would 10 (Binary), 12 (Lieut. Harry Kim) and 14 (Volstagg) go for a weekend vacation trip?
Both Harry and Binary have been all over space. They are curious about Asgard, so Volstagg shows them around - he can be very good company - with emphasis on all the places where you can get good food and drink.
11 (Captain Janeaway) and 13 (The Swamp Thing) win the lotto on a shared ticket. What do they do with the money?
The Swamp Thing gives his half to the environmental group in Houma where Abigail and his hippy friend are activists, and Capt.Janeaway has the toilet facilities of her ship overhauled.
7 (Q) is moving. Who does he ask to help? Who shows up?
He drags in all the Starfleet crews he can get hold of, and makes things as infuriating for them as he can.
15 (Molly Weasley) just broke up with a long-term romance. Who gets the tearful phone call?
It happened at Hogwarts, and the person who got the tearful call was none other than Arthur Weasley. (That is the only way it could work, since it is certified that they met at Hogwarts and I hope nobody is so silly as to suggest they are going to divorce now.)
Elise_the_great 3 (Lieut.Whorf), 7 (Q), 8 (Willow Rosenberg) and 12 (Lieut. Harry Kim) are at the beach. Who's wearing a Speedo? Is anyone hiding under an umbrella with a book? If they're all eating ice cream, who's most likely to have stolen it from small children further up the beach?
Harry Kim is wearing a Speedo and trying to flirt with Willow - who does her shy act and hides under an umbrella with a book. Q, of course, is the one who stole the ice cream - he could perfectly well have made it out of nowhere, but that would not be annoying enough.
2 (Peeves) and 13 (The Swamp Thing) are in a car wreck with 6 (Hermione Granger) and 11 (Captain Janeaway). One of the cars is totaled. Whose fault is it? Will there be a fight or just a disgruntled exchange of insurance information? Was everyone buckled in?
The first problem, of course, is how on Earth Peeves and The Swamp Thing happened to be together in a car. And the answer is that the Swamp Thing, who is immensely powerful but not very fast in his reactions, has been tricked by Peeves, who finds him a square in bad need of shaking up, into the unlikeliest situation in the world. Of course, neither of them is a good driver. Hermione and Kathryn, being who they are, are both very responsibly strapped in, and it is clearly not their fault. They are both furious, and Kathryn deploys her death glare to such effect that Peeves actually reels back and straight in the hands of the Swamp Thing - who does not let him go before he has given him the spanking of three lifetimes (with Kathryn approving and Hermione giggling herself sick).
1 (Reed Richards) catches 9 (Foggy Nelson) wearing his/her clothing. How will he/she react? How will 9 explain it?
Reed has a good laugh, and Foggy explains that ever since he was a child he fantasized about being a superhero.
3 (Lieut.Whorf), 5 (The Silver Angel), 10 (Binary) and 14 (Volstagg) rob a bank and run for it. Who masterminded the whole thing? Who's driving the getaway car? Who's having qualms about the whole thing? What country will they end up in, and how will they split the money?
These are all, without exception, heroes, so what they do has got to be for the greater good. Therefore… the bank is a Romulan financial centre, and the money is worthless outside the Romulan Empire, so there is no question of splitting it (though Volstagg things sadly of the number of gourmet meals it might have purchased). They strike as a large consignment of illegal funds is being transferred that would eventually go to finance subversive activities in Federation and Klingon territories, knowing that if the various traitors are disappointed in their hopes for money, they may well turn against their Romulan paymasters. The plan was laid out by Volstagg and Whorf, and hinged on the power of the Silver Angel and Binary to power and drive away an old wreck of a space freighter that lay not far from the space hub where the money was. Whorf started out having qualms about the whole thing - he found it unworthy of a warrior, and would rather have fought traitors face to face - but Volstagg, who is an Asgardian and knows the warrior mind well, manages to talk him into it. They take refuge first in alien territory, to confuse the Romulans, and then in Klingon space, where they split up, each heading for his or her own home.
