lmao I have two job interviews today AAAAAAAA SO NERVOUS.
fun fact: I have only ever watched Animated, out of all the possible Transformers continuities, and yet Mirage is quickly finding himself on my favorite characters list. MIRAGE. WHO IS NOT EVEN IN ANIMATED, AT ALL.
Also, I want a spinoff series called The Adventures of Rodimus's Team. And The Adventures of Swindle. And maybe something to do with Blitzwing and Lugnut, and/or the Jet twins hassling Starscream's clones forever. Yes.
I just realized that Blurr is somehow my
Little Black Dress for this fandom THERE GOES YOUR WHOLE DAY 8D. I ship him with fuckin' everyone, or a lot of 'ones, anyway, don't ask me how. Not even joking. The guy gets ten minutes of screentime where he's actually ONLINE and SPEAKING, out of 42 episodes -- OVER 50,400 MINUTES, mind you, the guy strictly speaking gets maybe a little over half an hour TOTAL -- and somehow I manage to ship him with 'bots he's never even spoken to. Or met. Including Prowl, and Blitzwing (YEAH THANKS RUKA), and the twins (Kuu B|), and Cliffjumper, and Mirage who as I previously stated IS NOT EVEN IN THIS SHOW. I'd feel bad about this but I don't think I have a soul anymore. 8|
I also want to write fic. Or read one that somehow includes the line/idea "You three weren't casualties. You're like a living truce" or something like that come on guys the three mechs that died were a Decepticon, an Elite Guard Autobot, and one of Optimus Prime (probably going to become Optimus Magnus)'s maintenance 'bots. I bet that could be played with in a really interesting way, fic-wise.
Been playing Pokemon Mystery Dungeon so much for the past few days, all I can say is: baaaaaaawwwwwwwwww. ;^;
OKAY GUYS I AM STILL NERVOUS WTF IS THIS. What is this. I don't want to be unemployed anymore. :< It's only a job at the gas station or a job at Radio Shack, but still...
AND BOUNCING OFF THAT SUBJECT AGAIN I'MMA LEAVE THIS MEME UNDER THE CUT FOR Y'ALL.

Pick five of your favourite shows, in no particular order, before you read the below questions, then answer them!
1. Earth: Final Conflict
2. Farscape
3. Jeeves & Wooster
4. Keroro Gunso
5. Transformers Animated
And not making the list I'mma just Special Guest Mention The Avengers on here, since I love that show so goddamn much but it's been way too long since I've seen it -- uh, moving along to the rest of the meme now, 'scuse
01. Who's your favourite character in 2? Farscape
Ohgod, I have to choose just one? D8 I seriously love everyone in this series, it's really hard to say. I guess I'm gonna have to say that my favorite-favorite has always been Pilot; he just appeals to me on several levels, he's dutiful and always helpful and can be impatient and sarcastic, and he's so alien. Symbiote literally attached to Moya, their living ship, he can read her systems and her thoughts and feelings and can communicate with her, and that's just... neat. And he was attached to the ship, could never leave the cockpit, was basically just there to, well, pilot, and he still never came across as flat or gimmicky or unbelievable.
Plus, he looks like
this, and I swear to god I had a ridiculously huge crush on the character when I was younger. I need to watch the show again, it'll probably still be there. :|b
02. Who's your least favourite character in 1? Earth: Final Conflict
ZO'OR. 8| Fucking... Zo'or. Sandoval is a close second, but ugh. Zo'or, you're a bitch and I wanted Da'an to smack you even though he was never gonna do it because he's your mommy and he loevs you but FUCKING UGH. Never before and never again have I wanted to kick a villain right in his smug little face that badly.
03. What's your favourite episode of 4? Keroro Gunso
Oh my god guys there are like 289 episodes of Keroro Gunso so far and they are still going. And this is still probably the easiest out of all these shows for me to pick a favorite episode from. 8| Seriously? The one where Mutsumi and Kururu's first meeting is shown is incredible, buuuut I think I need to say it's Episode 229.
You know. The two-part episode with the SILENCE CAUSING ALIEN that keeps causing sound to
disappear from the world for a few minutes at a time, and the Narrator tries voicing all the characters for a while when it happens, and Mutsumi decides that it would be an
awesome idea to go off and
fight the alien alone despite the fact that he's
wearing hooker clothes and the alien keeps
rapefacing at him, not to mention his
Magic Pen is breaking, and he and Kururu have what is
not quite an argument, and then Mutsumi decides to
go off and
be An Hero, and Kururu
gets uber serious and then looks concerned for someone else for THE FIRST TIME IN HIS ENTIRE FUCKING LIFE and goddamn does he look
really fucking concerned, and then
Mutsumi's pen shatters in the Final Fight and Kururu
flies directly into an enemy blast to block Mutsumi from it with his ship thing and tosses him a new pen and Mutsumi
draws a chrysalis which a
giant sparkly rainbow butterfly flies out of and
shields them and saves their lives and flies away
spewing glitter all over everything like the gayest hero ever if the gayest hero ever was a butterfly.
... Yeah, picspam of hell, but it's pretty much worth it. I'm not exaggerating anything. B|
This kind of sums up the second half of the episode, here, and probably takes less time to do so, plus has a catchy song, so.
Also, alternately, an ass-drills episode is fine too. \O_o/ Just because I can not believe they fucking did that it was hideous and beautiful.
04. What's your favourite season of 5? Transformers Animated
Oh, geez. Three. Definitely season three. There was some really good shit in the first season, and some AWESOME stuff in season two, but season three? Basically is full of amazing. Full of it. My little kids' show got all growed up. *sniff*
05. Who is your favourite ship in 3? Jeeves & Wooster
Is this a trick question? >____> Okay, I do like me some good Jeeves/Wooster, I am not ashamed to admit that! Other than the ridiculous slash ships and the het belonging to Bertie's even more ridiculous friends (BINGO LITTLE, is all I'm sayin'. BINGO LITTLE.), this is like... the Anti-Ship canon. The plot seems to revolve around Jeeves saving Bertie from having to *shudder* MARRY some girl who is, as Bertie will be quick to assure, perfectly suitable for some other chap and will probably be the light of his life but is just not suited for Bertram. Marriage is a fate worse than death for the guy, I swear. XD TANGENT YES, BUT. I can't deny that the thought of shipping any of the major characters in this series amuses me greatly, since the plotlines basically set up all the romances to be tangled and hilarious even when they work, and the main character would be HORRIFIED AT THE THOUGHT of matrimony, so.
06. Who is your anti-ship in 2? Farscape
... Y'know, I really don't think I have one. O_o Or ever really did. MAYBE Scorpius/Sikozu, or Crais/Aeryn, or Grayza/anyone because oh god her >[ but I really don't mind any shipping in this series, when it comes down to it.
Also, needs more Stark. /tangent
07. How long have you watched 1? Earth: Final Conflict
Oh, wow. I have not watched it in a long while, but... seriously? First run. October 1997. I watched through all of the first four seasons, and then it just turned to crap so I never did watch the fifth one. OH WELL, I should try rewatching the first couple sometime again soon~
08. How did you become interested in 3? Jeeves & Wooster
Reading the books. My father has half a dozen of the Jeeves & Wooster books, and they are amazing. When I heard there was a BBC miniseries, it was all over... and when I heard that it had Hugh Laurie playing Bertie and Stephen Fry playing Jeeves, I had to buy it right that instant. That still may be, in all seriousness, the best money I've ever spent. |D;;;
09. Who's your favourite actor/actress in 4? Keroro Gunso
oh holy shit Koyasu. Koyasu forever.
CAN I NAME TWO? BECAUSE AKIRA ISHIDA ROCKS MY SOCKS, TOO.
But yeah, Koyasu. I also love the job EVERYONE ELSE does, especially Akira Ishida and Kappei Yamaguchi and Jouji Nakato and Takeshi Kusao, but Koyasu and his lazy voice and KUKUKU~ and just his overall job as Kururu rocks my socks clean off.
10. Which do you prefer: Show 1, 2 or 5? Earth: Final Conflict, Farscape, Transformers Animated
... LMAO WOW ALL THREE OF MY SCI-FI-ISH SHOWS. |D Goddamn that was epic arrangement. But uh, to answer the question... I... can't choose. ._. I can narrow it down to a deathmatch brawl between Farscape and Animated, but that's about as far as it gets. Sorry, guys.
11. Which show have you seen more episodes of, 1 or 3? Earth: Final Conflict, Jeeves & Wooster
Earth: Final Conflict. Most of the first four seasons, yo; Jeeves & Wooster, on the other hand, has wayyyy fewer episodes in its own four-seasons-total, and I think I missed a few on top of that. Ah, well.
12. If you could be anyone from 4, who would you be? Keroro Gunso
Fuckin'. Mutsumi. I'm not even joking, the kid's a dorky godmod hobo who's BFFs forever with the jerkiest alien in the universe, who wouldn't want to be that? And he has a fucking MAGIC PEN. I'm sold.
13. How would you kill off your favourite character in 1? Earth: Final Conflict
I WOULDN'T. God dammit I was angry enough when they wrote Da'an out in the worst way possible at the end of season four, I'm not going to imagine him actually dying. >[
Maybe blowing up Zo'or.
14. Give a random quote from 1? Earth: Final Conflict
"The earth is doomed. You can best serve the Taelons by dying when you are told to die."
Fuck you, Zo'or. >[ Let's have a better quote from Auger up in here: "They can't kill you while the world's watching, they'll have to wait 'till the cameras are off."
There. Much better.
15. Which character from 5 would be a good guest star on 2? Transformers Animated, Farscape
... HOLY FRAGGING GOD THIS QUESTION REALLY JUST GOT ASKED. Uh. UHHHHH. Holy shit. 8D ANY of the giant robots, man, it would be beautiful and Jon would just be like "WHAT" forever and it would be beautiful. Ffffuuuuuck now I want epic full-fledged crossover adventures GOD DAMN YOU MEME
16. Would a 3/4 crossover work? Jeeves & Wooster, Keroro Gunso
... lmao no. No never. Never ever ever. Pffft.
*GOES BACK TO THINKING ABOUT HOW BEAUTIFUL A FARSCAPE/ANIMATED CROSSOVER WOULD BE, THOUGH*
17. Pair two characters in 1 that would make an unlikely but strangely okay couple. Earth: Final Conflict
You know what, I'm just gonna throw together my two favorite characters, because any of his Companions or Lili with Da'an actually make sense. So: Auger/Da'an. I think it would actually be really interesting seeing those two interact. Genius hacker Resistance member who flirts with the ladies and the actually good Taelon -- all of which are genderless? Auger's got a neat personality, great sense of humor and some exhuberance to him, and Da'an is... well, Da'an. Very calm, quiet, serene, professional, etc. It might actually be kinda neat.
18. Has 5 inspired you in any way? Transformers Animated
Oh hell yes, at least story-wise. I want to write a ton of shit for it, and I want to write original stuff again inspired by aspects of it that I would have loooved for them to work with, but they never did. Unf.
19. Overall, which show has a better cast, 2 or 4? Farscape, Keroro Gunso
Cannot choose. Physical actors? Not the same thing as voice actors, seriously. Plus, Keroro is pure crack, and while Farscape could get HELLA WEIRD and had some hilarious bits almost every episode, it's... not crack. :| SO YEAH NO NOT CHOOSING.
20. Which has better theme music, 3 or 5? Jeeves & Wooster, Transformers Animated
Jeeves & Wooster. (WATCH ALL OF THOSE, SERIOUSLY, WHAAAAT.) You can also hear the awesome violin music kickin' up in the background at the end of the "Oh By Jingo" one. The music in that, theme music or NOT, is just... epic. I love it so much, it's either making me smile or making me snicker helplessly (AKA BERTIE'S VERSION OF "PUTTIN' ON THE RITZ" ANYONE...?).
Transformers Animated, on the other hand, has "TRANSFORMERS, ROBOTS IN DISGUISE!" etc which is not terrible or wince-inducing, but yeah, really, no comparison here.
WELL I THINK THAT WAS TERRIBLY PRODUCTIVE, WHAT DO YOU THINK? 8Db
*flees to shower and prepare for interviews in less than two hours aaaaaaaaaaaa*
