Choose twelve of your original characters, in any particular order. Then, answer the questions that follow, but DON'T LOOK AT THE QUESTIONS BEFORE YOU PICK THE CHARACTERS!
1. Capella
2. Glorianna
3. Sparky
4. Dr. Agony
5. Portai
6. Lady Spectra
7. Kiina
8. Jandar
9. Phantos
10. The Reaper
11. Butterfly
12. Nucleus
(It's funny how appropriate most of these are...)
1. Who would make a better college professor, 6 or 11?
Definitely Lady Spectra; she's already a high school science teacher. And Butterfly can't speak.
2. Do you think #2 is hot? How hot?
Glorianna? Definitely. Smokin'.
3. 12 sends 8 on a mission. What is it, and does it succeed?
Nucleus sends Jandar to sabotage a rival scientist's experiments. Sure, he could pull that off.
4. What is or would be 9's favorite book?
Phantos reads more for education than pleasure, so it would probably be something like The Necronomicon.
5. Would it make more sense for 2 to swear fealty to 6, or the other way around?
It's hard to imagine, either way. I suppose Glori would swear fealty to Spectra if there was money involved. ;-)
6. For whatever reason, 5 is looking for a roommate. Should 5 share a studio apartment with 9 or with 10?
Phantos would be a very neat, quiet roommate. On the other hand, he has no visible means of support, so he'd have trouble coming up with his half of the rent. The Reaper would be ok, if you don't mind him working nights.
7. 2, 7, and 12 have dinner together. Where do they go, and what do they discuss?
Glori and Kiina would want to go clubbing, and check out all the hot guys. Nucleus would sit in the corner, mumbling something about how superstring theory is bullshit.
8. 3 challenges 10 to a duel. What happens?
In a straight-up fight, Sparky would have the advantage in firepower. But Reaper would probably kill her in her sleep the day before the duel.
9. If 1 stole 8's most precious possession, how would 8 get it back?
Seduction.
10. Suggest a title for a story in which 7 and 12 both attain what they most desire.
"The Day a Safe Full of Catnip Fell From the Sky and Landed on Stephen Hawking"
11. What kind of plot device would you use if you wanted 4 and 1 to work together?
Dr. Agony is pretty sneaky, and Capella can be kind of dense, so he could probably fool her into thinking he's a good guy. The trick would be motivating her to get off her butt and do something. Perhaps he could tempt her with information about her missing father.
12. If 7 visited you for the weekend, how would you get along?
Ok, although she'd probably find me boring.
13. If you could command 3 to perform any one task or service for you, what would it be?
There's a few politicians I wouldn't mind seeing zapped...
14. Does anyone on your friends list write or draw anything regarding 11?
Nope. A number of artists chipped in on the storyline Butterfly appeared in, but I don't think any of them are on LJ.
15. If 2 had to choose sides between 4 and 5, which would it be?
Glorianna would side with just about anyone else over Portai. Lots of unresolved issues there.
16. What might 10 shout while charging into battle?
"Fear... the Reaper!"
17. If you chose a song to represent 8, which song would you choose?
"Smooth Operator"
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?
Capella gets it, and Spectra and Nucleus end up with broken fingers.
19. What might be a good pick-up line for 2 to use on 10?
"Wanna hear about the time I busted up an ancient cult?"
20. What would 5 most likely be arrested for?
Sexual assault.
21. What is 6's secret?
Aside from her dual identity, she holds the secret of a powerful, inexhaustible, but highly unstable energy source.
22. If 11 and 9 were racing to a destination, who would get there first?
Phantos. He can fly, and Butterfly can't run very fast in that burkha.
23. If you had to walk home through a bad neighborhood late at night, would you feel safer in the company of 7 or 8?
Either Kiina or Jandar would be good to have watching your back. Jandar, being a big guy with a sword, is more intimidating, so people would be less likely to mess with us in the first place.
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 he 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?
Capella and Phantos team up against Dr. Agony. Butterfly's the spy. Nucleus is kidnapped (who would care?), and Portai tells them to find Sparky (who once kicked his ass, incidentally). That actually kinda works. I'd call it "Fear and Loathing in River City".
