I know, these things are usually run by BNFs and other people of vast popularity, but there is a massive shortage of Friending Memes to do with books on LJ so I decided to add one, albeit a bit of a specific one! :3
You've arrived on the Disc! And a horse and cart have magically appeared before you! What region are you anxious to see first? Straight to Ankh-Morpork, where all my favorites are.
I see! Does your favourite character live there? No? Who is your favourite character, then? Yep. In fact, probably all of my tops are there. Vimes, Vetinari, Angua, Carrot, Moist, Adorabella, William de Worde....
Ooh, nice. And your least favourite? Yes, everybody has a least favourite - even if they don't admit to it in public! Hmm...of the main characters, probably Rincewind. I was never big on the Wizard books.
Fascinating. So, your favourite book would be...? Night Watch.
Eek! William de Worde has been hot on your tail and now wants a little word with you. Don't mind that flash - Otto has his favourite picture-box with him. So! What do you tell de Worde about? Anything he cares to ask, really. I'd find him pretty hard to resist. Though I'd want to hear tales from his adventures in journalism in return.
Oh dear. You're halfway through the interview and, regrettably, Captain Carrot and Sergeant Angua have arrived to arrest you! What might you have done? Crap. A case of mistaken identity, I'm sure. But well worth it to meet the men and women of the Watch.
Well, I'm sure Commander Vimes will be lenient - maybe. Whilst you sit in your cell at the Watch House and ruminate, are there any things from our world that you're missing? Books, CDs, television shows, celebrities, music? Neil Gaiman, comic books, Lost, Deadwood, Bob Dylan, Josh Ritter, Star Trek, Doctor Who
Ah - it's all a mistake, you're being released. But Cheery wants to know if there anything else the Watch should know about you! Do you get PLT at certain times of the month? Wear a black ribbon? Have an unusual fondness for green squishy things in jars, or come from Überwald in general? I have a rather bad tendency towards squee!ing, but other than that, I'm pretty normal.
Uh-oh. It's a summons from Vetinari. You're in Discworld now, you need to be a member of a Guild! Which Guild do you pick? Presumably after you've told Havelock how awesome he is. Well, my actual first choice would be to join up with the Watch, but if that wasn't an option, I'd probably go with the Assassins Guild. I've always looked good in black.
On your way to orientation, you run into CMOT Dibbler, and he wants to - *gulp* - sell you a pie! How do you fob him off? Fob him off? No way. I'd buy one. I figure it's a rite of passage.
Well, that got rid of him! But oh dear, before you can do anything else you are pulled inside a bar. It's Nanny Ogg, and she challenges you to a drinking contest! How many pints do you get through before you faint? I'm a fair good drinker, but the hang-over that would follow trying to match Nanny is frightening.
You did good! But as you slumped into unconsciousness, Granny Weatherwax spirits you home! Well, it's been quite a day. How would you sum up your journey through Discworld in one word? Fantastic
