Jake Blues - The Blues Brothers
Jake nods, calmly surveying the area. He's spoken to Elwood and feels in control--that is, he looks as if he is, and he feels fairly confident in his situation. After all, it's better than being hounded by cops. He doesn't know how he got here, but does that really matter right now? He's just glad that he's found a place, and that he's found his brother.
1. What is your favorite cheese? Why is it your favorite?
I’m not picky; I’ll take whatever you have. You name it and I'll probably take it. And while you’re at it, got any beer? Haven’t had anything but cheap wine for a few days. It works, but it's not all that great.
2. Who would you kill first, Barney or Carrottop?
Got better things to do than go around committing that sort of crime. What makes you think I want to kill anyone? If I tried anything like that, the Penguin'd kill me. Besides, I’m trying to stay away from the cops, see, and I don’t think that’d help at all. What the hell... I don't even know who you're talking about. Sorry, man.
3. What time is it where you are?
Don’t know, man. My watch is broken. Yeah, I need to buy a watch some time. Need some money, first. It's dark, if that helps. My guess is nine, maybe later.
4. If you were Albus Dumbledore returned from the dead, which member of the Order of the Phoenix would you sexually harass? How would you harass them? If you are Albus Dumbledore, please answer as if you were Sirius Black.
I could stand some harassment with the Tonks kid, if you know what I mean. She looks like the type to be up for it, too. Might be crazy, for all I know, but I can handle that. Not like I’d need to call her, or anything. Nice legs, nice eyes, nice girl.
5. If you are pushing to be in:
A. Slytherin - please state the clever, witty name of the bar in which you bartend, in the dark.
I’m a performer, not a bartender. Look, I already said I’ll take a drink, but I’m not going to hand ‘em out. And the name of the bar never really matters (unless it’s Bob’s Country Bunker, in which case I’m stayin’ the hell away) so much as the, you know, ambiance of the place.
B. Gryffindor - Debate whether Harry should ultimately end up married to Fred or George. Use examples from a variety of world mythologies to bolster your argument.
To talk about mythologies, I’d have had to listen in school. Looks like I can’t go with that. Why should he choose one, anyway? From what I’ve seen, marriage isn’t worth it. Does strange things to people, gives ‘em crazy ideas. Harry’d be better off leaving himself open to other women, men, or whatever he wants. The way I see it, it’s better not to bother with the mess; just go for the enjoyment. Works out a lot better for everyone involved.
C. Ravenclaw - You guys are supposed to be smart. Explain why my desk is inundated with paperwork at all times, even though I’m constantly disposing of it.
What’s wrong with leaving things all over? Your problem isn’t the mess; it’s with doing the paperwork at all. Why bother with any of that, when there are ways around it? Look, just clear off your desk, shove everything to the side, and your problem’s solved. Simple.
D. Hufflepuff - Prove you are not useless.
Do I look useless? Nothing against the rest of the guys, but I bring energy to the band, keep the guys together. Hell, if it wasn’t for me, they’d never have gotten back together. And Elwood and I did just get the money for the orphanage, didn’t we?
6. Offer a bribe to the members of this community so that they will not squib you. Items used in bribery do not necessarily have to belong to the person offering the bribe.
I’ve got a pack of cigarettes, a lighter, and half a bottle of wine. As long as I can find replacements somewhere around here, you’re free to take any of these as bribes. I think Elwood’s got some cash that I could give out. Not a lot, but that’s something, right? And if none of that suits you, I can get you free tickets to a concert. How about that? Free music; what more could you want? And if that doesn’t get you-I don’t know why it wouldn’t, but that’s your loss-I can probably pick you up whatever you want, if you see what I’m saying.
((OOC: Jake's here to join Elwood from The Blues Brothers. If there's a problem with my playing both of 'em, please do slap me. Edit-edit, as have been told there's not an issue. DANKE MUCH.))
