Memeage for a Sore Brain
Sorry for the lack of stories of late, I've having one of those month-long migraine spells. Which means it's a good time for memes! Bringing back my second fav. I think there might be some character out there who haven't played yet.
Give me the name of a character I write or have written and I'll tell you ( Read more... )

Q
What they smell like: Clean laundry, generally. 'Mystic Woods' is the soap he prefers, but the online shopping substitutions sometimes result in something else. He also wears the same aftershave that Mycroft gave him when he taught him to shave, which is the same one that their father used. It has oakmoss as the most prominent note, and overall has a clean, crisp scent. Combined with the bergamot of his cologne, he gives off the scent of a strong cup of tea in a pleasant, freshly laundered forest.
How they sleep: In the foetal position, with one hand under his pillow and one arm around his stomach. He finds that position the most comfortable for working on his devices in bed, and often falls asleep doing it, so stays that way. He sleeps whenever he feels tired, whatever time of day or wherever place he might be. Three hours is enough to get him back on his feet again. On the rare occasions he has a bedmate, he's usually little spoon, and very often rolls right away from him or her and curls up in a ball.

Oh, that’s lovely. What a nice smell. :)
Q is an opera fanatic, and he often hacks into the cameras that theatres use to cue lighting or sets, and has live performances streaming while he works.
I like this detail! Can totally imagine this. (And now I’m mentally inserting Q into the wonderful “Cold Blood” story you wrote when Mycroft, John, and Sherlock attend an opera together and Sherlock gets shot afterwards so that Q was at least there with his brothers in spirit, haha.)
And collecting computer viruses!!! Awesome!
Thanks for doing these! I hope you feel better!

I'd be interested in some information about Tony Stark. Either in the daemon-verse or not.

My life's motto!
Tony Stark & Demira
What they smell like: Grease, computers, sawdust, stale alcohol. Unless in public, in which case Tony smells like his $500 cologne and aftershave combo. Which is a vigorous, citrussy, clean scent with notes of black ginger and grapefruit and suede.
How they sleep: Tony and Mim are bed hogs, whether alone or with a partner. They push their bedmates right to the edge of the bed, and curl around them, holding them in place so at least they don't fall out. Pepper refers to this as having '12% of the bed'. Alone, Tony spreads himself out with all his limbs splayed, and Mim usually stands on his back or stomach, with her head under her wing. Unless they're drunk, in which case she tends to fall over and stay there. If Pepper is in bed, Mim likes to wrap Lev's tail around herself and put her beak on his back.
What music they enjoy: Traditional heavy metal. Anything with a good, hard beat, that's loud and obnoxious. Mim likes to head bang.
How much time ( ... )

Heeeheee!! The image of a bird slumped over to the side on Tony's back is my new favorite thing.

This is the perfect illustration of Tony as a human being. He's kind of overwhelming and can annoy the hell out of you but if he cares, he makes sure not to push you over the actual edge.

I Googled sleeping birds for that answer. I think it probably looks something like this

Pepper: That is highly debatable.
Tony: Hey, I never once dropped you on the floor, babe. I can't say that for everyone.
