whyyyy do i do these things, why.
RP ICON MEME.
PART ONE
First, let’s list all of your active characters and their PBs.
HAHA WATCH ME NOT DO THEM ALL, GUYS.
1.] Martel :: The Elenium/The Tamuli :: errantknights :: Julian Sands
2.] Nuala :: Hellboy II: The Golden Army :: cailisairgid :: Anna Walton (...in the make up)
3.] Gates :: BtVS/Original :: knowhowitfeels :: Kate Beckinsale
4.] Dessoir :: World of Darkness :: famousinwar :: Timothy Dalton
5.] Caius :: Historical Fiction :: gaiusiulius :: Timothy Dalton
6.] Nick :: Rose Red :: whatdorosesmean :: Julian Sands
7.] Donnatella :: Original/Honorary MU :: ofmyderriere :: Sophia Bush
Morray is not on the list because Claire is twisting my arm to CHANGE his PB.
Have some generic questions:
Who is your favorite PB and why? Well, the numbers would certainly indicate a strong preference for Timothy Dalton, but I'm pretty sure that's not entirely my fault. Exactly. ...but I am very fond of his face.
Do you have a least favorite PB? Nooot really, I don't use PBs that I don't like. Kate Beckinsale is a pain in the ass to find icons of that I don't hate, though.
Is there anyone you don’t use a PB for? Why? No.
Who was the hardest to pick a PB for? MARTEL oh my god who the hell looks like Martel? Nobody. That's who. Nobody looks like Martel. (Except Julian Sands and even then it's like "uhhh but imagine his eyes are totally darker and that he's a little taller, oh and uh LOOK, HIS HAIR, DON'T BOTHER ME.")
Who has your favorite icons? This tends to vary but I think I really, really like Nuala's icons.
Who has the worst icons? Haha this would be Martel, because I have to kind of make the best of bad icons/caps/images sometimes.
Do you decide to rp characters and then go PB hunting, or do you create characters based off a desire to use a certain PB? Iiiit depends. I know I'm probably going to end up having to find another use for Huge Ackman.
Have you ever changed a character’s PB midway through playing them? ...yes. Silence in the cheap seats.
Seriously though how annoying is it to have to do that? REALLY ANNOYING.
Do you make your own icons? I mix between icons I made and icons I've found, usually. With...more of my own, admittedly, but if I find icons that tends to be more convenient. >_> Kate Beckinsale is one that I collect icons of rather than making the majority of my own.
Have you ever had to Photoshop aspects of a character’s look onto icons? (Hair color, scars, etc) Y HELO MARTEL, HOW ARE YOU TODAY sfkljdsflkjdfg.
Do you like using popular PBs? Apparently I mostly use weird old European men as they were in the eighties.
If you know a PB is used by other people “around town”, does it make you less likely to use them, even if they’re perfect? Yeeees, though I guess it'd depend.
Have you ever felt territorial or protective over a PB? Yes. Though it's more annoying when people are using the PB and they have really bad icons.
Are there any PBs you are seriously sick to death of seeing? Get out, KBell. Also Jensen Ackles, I am so tired of his face. (Hilariously I saw My Bloody Valentine tonight. In 3D! The eye strain from the 3D gave me the worst fucking headache, but I was actually entertained by the movie. The more you know.)
Is there anyone you’d love to PB but can’t figure out a character for/just can’t find the time to play anyone else/etc? ...presently Billy Zane, probably Huge Ackman if Claire has her way or actually snaps my arm.
Do you like having misc stock/text icons for your characters? For some stuff, buuuut I don't do it often.
Do you pick out PBs and icons for NPC characters? ...yes. >_> Obsessively, yes.
What about pets? Occasionally. Less often.
PART TWO
And now we have some icon specific fields:
Go through all your characters. Pick out your favorite icon. List it. Explain why.
Icon:
Character journal: errantknights
Why: I photoshopped Julian Sands's own hair onto another picture. Oh my God.
Icon:
Character journal: cailisairgid
Why: Look I realize that I will likely never or VERY VERY RARELY have any opportunity to use this icon. But it's pretty.
(Okay, alternatively:
It's just nice, Nuala's a button.)
Icon:
Character journal: knowhowitfeels
Why: "If it makes you laugh for fifteen seconds, you are not allowed to do it."
Icon:
Character journal: famousinwar
Why: "Yes, I'm a jerk, but you totally love it."
Icon:
Character journal: gaiusiulius
Why: Quintessentially Caius Roy. (I also love the shit out of his default.)
Icon:
Character journal: whatdorosesmean
Why: This is his default icon! It's just very Nick. idk idk he's a troll.
Icon:
Character journal: ofmyderriere
Why: She's tiny and long-suffering and adorable and actually kind of a psycho, hi.
PART THREE
Group interaction! Sit here and wait anxiously as your friends go through your character icons and pick out THEIR favorites and then link them and then ask you questions about them like “What emotion do you use this for?” “What possessed you to use this completely ridiculous still?” “What the actual fuck is that text icon supposed to be?” and so forth. Once this is done, force them to do this meme so that you can return the favor.
END.
