70 Questions for Lindsey McDonald
Because:
1) there are a billion other things I have to do right now.
2) Lindsey is one of my favorite characters, but I have few fic ideas for him. I want to work on his voice. Also, I should write more first person because I hate it like marmite on cockroaches.
3) I think nemo_gravis is awesome for keeping this organized, and mara_sho for making a web site. Thanks ( Read more... )

He's so in love.
The classics:
That's what I thought at first, but what he sang at Caritas didn't sound very classic to me. Then again, he wouldn't necessarily pick someone he sounds like. Thanks. It was bothering me.

46. IS DRUG FREE THE WAY TO BE?
Wolfram and Hart was a strictly clean office. The did urine tests. Seemed off, considering, but it’s somehow connected with the Senior Partners being against the push to legalize marijuana. Could never figure how that fit in with their stance against world peace. They’re also officially opposed to Calvin and Hobbes, free internet porn, and Canada. It all makes more sense when I’m high.
this is perhaps the most perfect answer to that question in any of these meme-fic things.I couldn't stop cackling like a fiend *g*
Thank you so much for writing this!

Canada is just . . . Canada. W&H also has a problem with Newman's Own Lowfat Balsamic Vinegarette.
And thank you.

Bwah! LOL!
This whole Q & A is so perfectly Lindsey. Bravo!
I think he likes Alison Krauss's music too, for those softer moments.

And thanks for the Alison Krauss suggestion. I'm not to up on country music. Though I like lots of bluegrass well enough.

I can see Lindsey typing this, cackling away to himself--because Lindsey always thinks his jokes are funny, and the thing is they usually are.
And now I must go read the rest of these.

You're so right, and that's why this was fun. There were a couple of answers I was thinking, I should have him say something more clever here, and then I realized Lindsey thinks he's the shit no matter what the truth really is, so I just left them.
And I've been having a blast reading the rest. I highly recommend lostakasha's Cordelia Chase and bellatemple's Chen Choa-Ahn.

Do you find doing these gives you a better 'handle' on the characters for writing?

I did this in the hopes of getting a handle on the character, but I found that to be problematic. For one thing, no way would Lindsey put up with this shit. He wouldn't answer questions about leggos and tootsie pops for anything but to save his own ass, and then he'd be bitchy and monosyllabic and that'd be no fun. These questions rather do seem like something W&H would give their employees just to keep them on their toes, but again, Lindsey's response would be fuck this shit, because Lindsey doesn't like his chain to be jerked. I think a lot of people doing these things are sort of having this problem--for instance, bellatemple did one for Kennedy in which Kennedy gets annoyed and walks out after 27 questions. Which was funny for one survey, but if we did that on all of them, it'd be no fun ( ... )

It's alright; I like you too! I'm a mushy person (though I know what you mean. Online and with strangers I tend not to be so mushy ;o)
Besides teh fact you write the most wicked fic, even your journal posts are interesting, and make me think.
Why, thank you. I try to be interesting when I post. Irl I have a tendency to ramble and can be pretty boring ;o)
Was lindsey's family ever mentioned on angelIn AtS S1, "Blind Date." That's the ep when Lindsey claims he wants to work with Angel against W&H. Lindsey says to Angel, "I'm talking dirt poor, no shoes, no toilet. Six of us kids in a room, and come flu season it was down to four. I was seven when they took the house. They just came right in and took it ( ... )
