And, finally, the answers to the previous meme.
Firsly, here's the list of characters:
1. Dietfried Grindelwald
2. Rupert Giles
3. The Mad Hatter
4. Captain Malcolm Reynolds
5. Captain Jean Luc Picard
6. Don Quixote de la Mancha
7. Dr Gregory House
8. Lyra Silvertongue
9. Dread Pirate Roberts
10. Elim Garak
11. Drusilla
12. The Joker
13. Luke Skywalker
14. River Tam
15. Indiana Jones
Next up, the prompts:
For janetlin: If 3, 7, 8, and 15 were cast in a Shakespearean play, which play would it be and which parts would each of them take?
The Mad Hatter would play Osric because he'd just have fun with that. House would play Hamlet because OMG how perfect would that be? Lyra would play Rosencrantz and Guildenstern. Pantalaimon would help. Indiana Jones, of course, would play Horatio, the academic who manages to stay alive even though there's no good reason that he should have survived impending doom.
For vanillafluffy: If 3, 4, 7, 11 and 14 were getting together for a potluck dinner, who would bring what, and what would they be celebrating?
The Mad Hatter would bring the tea, obviously. Mal would bring the guns and the formed protein cleverly moulded to look like pot roast. House wouldn't bring anything. He'd just snatch Mal's formed protein!pot roast and claim that he brought it, and then he'd tell Mal off for only bringing guns.
Drusilla would bring small children and possibly a puppy or two, and comment that the guns were staring at her with their empty eyes. River would bring a cake that she made herself, though no one would quite trust the contents. She'd mutter something to herself about not touching guns. They would, of course, be celebrating Unification Day, which is why Mal brought the guns in the first place. Just in case.
The whole deal ends up in a shotgun wedding between the Mad Hatter and River. Mal officiates. The suggestion is made that House stake Drusilla with his cane, but he thinks that she's got a nice ass, so he doesn't.
For keeperofqkeys: If 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, and 13 were stranded on a desert island, who would play which parts of the group from Gilligan's Island?
Oh, my. Let's see. Grindie would be the Professor. The Mad Hatter would be the millionaire. Picard would be Gilligan, obviously. House would be the movie star. Because why not? The Dread Pirate Roberts would definitely be the Skipper. Drusilla would be the millionaire's wife. Luke would be Mary Ann; he's just so damned wholesome.
All fifteen characters are entered into a Battle Royale, with unlimited weaponry from their respective fandoms. Who wins?
Pfft, that's easy. Picard's got the torpedoes, but the Joker would win any Battle Royale, so the torpedoes are completely irrelevant.
The first 12 characters are called in for jury duty. Which one(s) would try to get out of it, and what would their excuse be?
Giles would claim that he's not American, and he's too damned busy, besides. Mal would definitely not go, and he wouldn't bother giving a reason; he'd assume the reason would be obvious. In fact, he thinks the notion of going is laughable. House wouldn't go, and he'd try to pawn it off on Cameron somehow. Lyra would consult her alethiometer, say what really happened, and proclaim the trial useless. The Dread Pirate Roberts would just stab people, but then he'd go anyway. You'd think the Joker wouldn't, but he'd so go. Just to fuck with people's heads.
For halan: 2, 6, 10, and 12 are competing against each other in a drag race. What vehicle are they each driving, and what place do they all finish in?
Giles is driving his MidlifeCrisis!Mobile that's had its engine souped up by Willow, Don Quixote is riding Sancho Panza because his mule died and he hasn't noticed yet, Garak is riding Bashir a runabout. He takes advantages where he sees them. The Joker is riding the Batmobile, though how he got his hands on it this time, no one is quite sure.
Garak shoots everyone else out of the race with the phasers that he's not supposed to have on a runabout and comes in first. No one else places; they've all died. So much for the concept of the Joker winning any Battle Royale. But hey. He wasn't expecting a Battle Royale. He was in it for the drag race.
Also, if 2, 5, 6, 10 and 14 were all on the bus to hell, who would be driving? Also, out of the remaining characters (1, 3, 4, 7, 8, 9, 11, 12, 13, and 15), who would most likely to be standing in the road and getting hit by said bus?
That's easy. Don Quixote would be driving. He'd be on a mission to save all those poor souls, obviously. And Dread Pirate Roberts would get hit by the bus,b ut he'd only be mostly dead.
The last 6 characters are in a hotdog eating contest. Who wimps out from being stuffed first, who goes on to win the gold, and who throws up from eating too much too fast?
Drusilla doesn't like this whole solid food thing, so she bows out and eats the other five characters. But before she does that, River gets stuffed first, Indiana Jones wins the gold, and Luke pukes.
For mbs_bookworm: If 1 and 9 (or 6 and 13, whichever you prefer) were going on a date, where would be their destination of choice?
If Grindie and the Dread Pirate Roberts were going on a date, they would go to watch a massacre somewhere. Then they'd duel for fun.
If Don Quixote and Luke Skywalker were to go on a date, they'd go crash Grindie and Dread Pirate Robert's date, attempt to stop the massacre, and only succeed by sheer dumb luck.
For starpaint: 3, 7, 10, and 11 are locked in a tiny closet. How did they get in there, what are they doing, and which one is the most likely to figure out how to get out?
Whoa. Well, they got in there because Drusilla was looking for refuge from the sun, and House was following the sweet piece of ass. The Mad Hatter saw people headed that way and followed, figuring that a closet door can lead anywhere and there might always be a tea party on the other side.
Garak was the unfortunate victim of what happens when the Sock Vortex gets too close to the Galactic Core, and he's got no more clue how he got there than any of the others do; he just wants out. He's definitely the one that figures out how to get out of there once he sees Drusilla making passes at House in the corner. The Mad Hatter starts ferreting some biscuits out of his hat to pass the time while Garak picks the lock.
For infiniteviking: 9, 8, 6, and 12 go on a road trip. Who does the packing, who picks the music, who drives, who drives everyone crazy, and where do they go?
Dread Pirate Roberts packs. He's good at that; he travels a lot. Besides, he's not going to let the little girl or one of the crazy men do it. Joker drives. No one's going to argue with him on that count, and he's the only one that knows how, besides. Don Quixote drives everyone batshit as he prepares for their Holy Quest to the north so that they might save the souls of the bears. Lyra's particularly bitter on that count, but she keeps him calm by picking out the music. She's never seen a CD player before and she thinks that this is just the loveliest thing ever, and oh wow, won't Iorek just love this music? It's so bear-like and deep!
There, halan. You can stop being on my butt about it now. I did it. Happy?
