Write 12 of your favorite characters in any order (but number them). After you've written it, look at the questions.
(You have my assurance that none of these are obscene or even really questionable, if that's important to you. :P )
Characters:
01. KOS-MOS from Xenosaga
02. Mai from My-HiME
03. Jayne from Firefly
04. Menori from Uninhabited Planet Survive
05. Stitch from Lilo & Stitch
06. Soreto from Fantastic Children
07. Captain Picard from Star Trek: The Next Generation
08. Ms. Frizzle from The Magic School Bus
09. Data from Star Trek: The Next Generation
10. chaos from Xenosaga
11. Tomoyo from Cardcaptor Sakura
12. Gandalf from The Lord of the Rings
Questions:
01. Who would make a better college professor, 6 or 11? What subjects would they teach?
Wow, that's actually kind of tough...I'll say Soreto, since she is very logical and organized, while Tomoyo might end up being somewhat random. Soreto would teach something in science definitely (she was a scientist in her previous life, after all!), probably advanced physics, and Tomoyo might teach something in costume design, but she also might teach cinematography.
02. Do you think 4 is hot? How hot?
Hot? I wouldn't say hot. Menori's very coooool....:P Quite cool.
03. 12 sends 8 on a mission. What is it, and does it succeed?
...O_O Of course, Gandalf sends Ms. Frizzle to return the One Ring back to Mt. Doom, and she makes a field trip out of it. XD;; ...Man, that's something pretty dark for the Magic School bus kids. I think, though, with their humor, Ms. Frizzle's wacky but ever-positive guidance, and their innocence (they're...what, 8 years old? 2nd graders?), they'll make it through.
04. What is or would be 9's favorite book?
Data? I kinda figure it would be something like Pinocchio?
05. Would it make more sense for 2 to swear fealty to 6, or the other way around?
Other way around. Mai of course would be discomfited by it, but maybe if there was something strange about the HiMEs that has something to do with Greecia...hmm.
06. For some reason, 5 is looking for a roommate. Should s/he share a studio apartment with 9 or with 10?
I think Data, although chaos would work too. Stitch is an alien, and Data is an android, and they both have a kind of disconnect with human society, so they could relate. Although, chaos is very patient, and probably could be very understanding towards Stitch. (Granted, I don't know everything about chaos, so maybe they're a better match than I think!)
07. 2, 7 and 12 have dinner together. Where do they go, and what do they discuss?
Huh, we have these two wise elders, and a teenager. Mai might feel somewhat awkward, but I think both Gandalf and Picard would let her choose, and they might go to a low-key place, since Mai doesn't have much money to go to a fancy restaurant. Gandalf and Picard might get into some very deep conversation about the worlds they've seen and the issues they've encountered and helped to solve, although Mai might feel like she wants to discuss something other than saving worlds.
08. 3 challenges 10 to a duel. What happens?
Man, Jayne would want some kind of shootout, while chaos would calmly but cheerfully cool down the situation in a witty way that gets Jayne confused and everyone else laughing. XD
09. If 1 stole 8's most precious possession, how would he get it back?
Ms. Frizzle would contact the bus perhaps by a bus-to-teacher walkie talkie, and although she'll tell her class that the bus is gone and that an android from a thousand years in the future took it, the class would be up in arms and insist on going to get it back.
10. Suggest a title for a story in which 7 and 12 both attain what they most desire.
Peace in the Worlds
11. What kind of plot device would you use if you wanted 4 and 1 to work together?
Man, not much. Put them in a place where they're stuck and have Menori be the human needed in the operation. They'd get along very well.
12. If 7 visited you for the weekend, how would you get along?
Captain Picard? Well, I would be thrilled. Maybe he might be a little stiff at first, since I'm not an adult, but I think if I act mature enough I think we can get along pretty well. I'd be happy to show him around and tell him about how far we are in technology, and I'd be very interested to hear of his travels. :D
13. If you could command 3 to perform any one task or service for you, what would it be?
If I actually had anyone I wanted revenge against, I'd tell him to go bully the heck out of them, but unfortunately I'm too nice for that. So I might go tell him to steal me some stuff. :P Hey, it's in their standard repertoire!
14. Does anyone on your friends list write or draw 11?
I think only me. D: Well, maybe
lithele did at some point, but I dunno about recently.
15. If 2 had to choose sides between 4 and 5, which would it be?
Mai probably would go with Menori; although Mai's more energetic and outgoing, she's very sensible, and I think Stitch would be much too chaotic for Mai to side with without a good reason.
16. What might 10 shout while charging into battle?
"This Gnosis is especially strong. Everyone, be careful!" Paraphrased from an actual quote he says in the game before a battle with a strong enemy.
17. If you chose a song to represent 8, which song would you choose?
What else but the Magic School Bus theme?? ...Although, if it must be cross-series, then maybe "I'm a Pioneer" from the dubbed Tenchi Muyo OVA. It's a song I consider my personal anthem. *hand over heart*
18. 1, 6 and 12 are having dim sum at a Chinese restaurant. There is only one scallion pancake left, and they all reach for it at the same time. Who gets to eat it?
KOS-MOS doesn't eat, so she doesn't even move. Soreto would attempt to defer to Gandalf, since she would show someone of his wisdom and knowledge much deference, but Gandalf insists cheerfully she try it, since he already has and she hasn't (Gandalf *has* traveled everywhere, hasn't he? :P) and Soreto would then humbly and shyly take it.
19. What might be a good pick-up line for 2 to use on 10?
If Mai wanted to go on a date with chaos, she'd probably just ask him if he was free on the weekend, and depending on whether chaos wanted to or not, they'd arrange a modest but cozy dinner out.
20. What would 5 most likely be arrested for?
....OH GEEZ. EVERYTHING. (Except maybe murder or rape of course.) Okay, well..."general disturbance of the peace". XD What else?? He's a little monster, for cryin' out loud!
21. What is 6's secret?
Soreto's been reborn for centuries in this world while her soul comes from another planet called Greecia.
22. If 11 and 9 were racing to a destination, who would get there first?
Data. He's an android; he would never tire. Tomoyo's not a great runner, either.
23. 3 and 7 tell conflicting versions of events. Which is more reliable?
OMG. Would you seriously trust Jayne over Picard? HONESTLY. (Picard. Times a million.)
24. 1 and 9 reluctantly team up to save the world from the threat posed by 4's sinister secret organization. 11 volunteers to help them, but it is later discovered that 11 is actually a spy for 4. Meanwhile, 4 has kidnapped 12 in an attempt to force their surrender. Following the wise advice of 5, they seek out 3, who gives them what they need to complete their quest." What title would you give this fic? Name three people on your friends list who might read it. Name one person who should write it.
Hmm, let me translate this:
"KOS-MOS and Data reluctantly team up to save the world from the threat posed by Menori's sinister secret organization. Tomoyo volunteers to help them, but it is later discovered that Tomoyo is actually a spy for Menori. Meanwhile, Menori has kidnapped Gandalf in an attempt to force their surrender. Following the wise advice of Stitch, they seek out Jayne, who gives them what they need to complete their quest."
O___O
lithele? (I think she's the only one that follows in part all of the fandoms in this one...) I seriously dunno who else would read it...
Who should write it?...Um, someone who really likes space ships and EXPLOSIONS. XD Seriously...two powerful androids ask Stitch & Jayne for advice? Things are going to end very, very messily. But damn, it would make for some of the most awesome sci-fi action EVAR. XD
25. If you had to walk home through a bad neighbourhood late at night, would you feel safer in the company of 7 or 8?
Huh, Ms. Frizzle and Captain Picard both very reliable in their own ways, but...maybe Picard, since he has a very commanding presence that bad people wouldn't dare approach.
And oh, btw, guess who I was stamped as?
Until I got the first vote, I wasn't sure who I'd get, but I wasn't really thinking Autor. Not only was he the eventual majority, it was a landslide. The only one who said otherwise was
mangaka_chan, who said Tutu. I dunno if it makes a difference that we've actually met face-to-face.
But, I guess I'm more like Autor than I thought before. Main things seem to be: my interest in writing and science, the fact that I've played piano for many years, and my general logical, scholarly way of writing (I think I use too fancy words sometimes ^^;; ).
Still, though...I think I'm not entirely like Autor. I'm usually not egotistical to anyone, even to those I dislike; I tend to be polite to those I don't know, and friendly and energetic to those I do. I don't like Drosselmeyer, and he likes him quite a lot.
But maybe if I was in his situation I'd be more like him, who knows? Autor doesn't know about Drosselmeyer's personality or attitude as much as us the audience, and has been surrounded by this mysterious town since he was little. Maybe I would get even more like him if no one ever listened to my obvservations?
Although, since
mangaka_chan and I got Fakir and Autor respectively, we're like two writers working together to battle the story? XP Well, we look at each other's writing a lot so that fits...XD
Oh, and if anyone hasn't seen my Princess Tutu AX report, and would like to, see it
here. :D I may combine it with a later whole AX report on here later, if I have time. This summer has been so busy, there's a good chance I might not ^^;;
