redneckgaijin:
1) Hermione Granger (Harry Potter books)
2) Yukito Tsukishiro (CardCaptor Sakura)
3) Meriadoc Brandybuck (Lord of the Rings)
4) Aburatsubo Ayanojou (Maho Tsukai Tai!)
5) Saki Hanajima (Fruits Basket)
6) Tananda the Trollop (MythAdventures)
7) Allen Schezar (Vision of Escaflowne)
8) Scraps the Patchwork Girl (the Oz stories)
9) Brutha (Discworld)
10) Loiosh (the Jhereg series)
11) Fourplay (Xxenophile)
12) Proginoskes (the Time Quartet)
Okay, let's look at these questions now . . .
1. Who would make a better college professor, 6 or 11? What subjects would they teach?
Tananda would almost certainly make a better professor. She's demonstrated her intelligence repeatedly, and she's taught Skeeve things a few times and been fairly effective. I do want to see Fourplay writing on those slide-up blackboards, though - two sticks of chalk and an eraser all going at once . . .
2. Do you think 4 is hot? How hot?
Hell, yeah! Work that hair, that voice, baby! Too bad he so totally doesn't swing my way . . .
3. 12 sends 8 on a mission. What is it, and does it succeed?
Well, if the Cherubim is sending you on a mission you're saving someone's life, the planet, or the whole universe - or any combination of the above. Scraps isn't really suited to this in her own right, so this probably involves the Powder of Life in some way - perhaps someone has been turned to stone, and (not being flesh in the first place) she can avoid being petrified and restore motion, voice, and consciousness to them, at least until the petrification can be undone, presumably by an appropriate application of redeeming love? Of course it's successful - missions don't fail in the Oz universe, and Scraps isn't smart enough to realize she might be in another one.
4. What is or would be 9's favorite book?
Brutha can't read, so I'd imagine it's whatever was being read to him. It's not the Omnivaal.
5. Would it make more sense for 2 to swear fealty to 6, or the other way around?
It would be more in character for Yukito to swear fealty to Tananda, but it doesn't work plotwise in either universe, and Yue would object anyway. Tananda might possibly do so for the Yukito of the Tsubasa universe, although it would have to be a very strange set of circumstances - she values her freedom too highly.
6. For some reason, 5 is looking for a roommate. Should s/he share a studio apartment with 9 or with 10?
Saki and Loiosh would get along Just Fine personality-wise. I suspect the landlord would object to the winged lizard as a tenant, though.
7. 2, 7 and 12 have dinner together. Where do they go, and what do they discuss?
Well, we already have a problem, as Progo doesn't eat and probably can't really make appearances in a restaurant. So let's assume this is a picnic and Progo is just keeping Yukito and Allen company for the conversation. Fortunately, the topic is pretty obvious: Protecting the Ones You Love.
8. 3 challenges 10 to a duel. What happens?
Holy hell, it's the battle of the small but dangerous secondary characters! Presumably Loiosh has shat in the flowerbeds at Buckland Hall or something. Loiosh has no concept of fighting fair and is poisonous, so poor Merry is at quite a disadvantage. However, someone who survived the deep poison of the Witch King is probably tough enough to survive, especially since Sam knows what kingsfoil looks like now. Most likely outcome: Loiosh strikes from the air, from behind, and incapacitates Merry, but he lives.
9. If 1 stole 8's most precious possession, how would 8 get it back?
Patches doesn't own anything, and Hermione never steals anything without a reason.
10. Suggest a title for a story in which 7 and 12 both attain what they most desire.
"All Hearts Forever Touching"
11. What kind of plot device would you use if you wanted 4 and 1 to work together?
All too easy - Sae tries a simple gate spell and the other end opens onto one of those corridors at Hogwarts just as Hermione steps off the trick staircase. As the most intelligent and competent of the MTT! crowd, Aburatsubo is the only one Hermione could talk to . . .
12. If 7 visited you for the weekend, how would you get along?
Allen tends to put women on pedestals; I would just have to be my best Southern Belle self all weekend and resist the overwhelming temptation to play with his hair. Unless, um, he were into that.
13. If you could command 3 to perform any one task or service for you, what would it be?
Hobbit Bondage Ahoy! To get me a sample of the Longbottom Leaf fresh from the ground, uncured, so I can figure out which plant family it belongs to, finally. (Alternatively, to sketch the Balrog so we can finally settle the wing issue.)
14. Does anyone on your friends list write or draw 11?
If they do, I haven't seen/read it. It'd be really easy to do, though.
15. If 2 had to choose sides between 4 and 5, which would it be?
Hmm. Wow, it's the all-GLBT catfight! Honestly, I can't see Yukito choosing sides at all - he'd probably try and soothe over whatever Aburatsubo and Saki were having a dispute about by giving everyone eclairs or something.
16. What might 10 shout while charging into battle?
Loiosh doesn't speak, so it'd probably be a high-pitched hiss . . .
17. If you chose a song to represent 8, which song would you choose?
Um, other than the bloody obvious? "She Comes In Colors," specifically the Hooters' cover of it.
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?
Again, Progo doesn't eat. Hermione's more polite, so Tananda probably gets it.
19. What might be a good pick-up line for 2 to use on 10?
. . . Eep. They're both taken, and I don't think Loiosh swings that way anyway.
20. What would 5 most likely be arrested for?
Causing a Public Disturbance, probably by zapping someone who was following Tohru too closely . . .
21. What is 6's secret?
Tananda is an open enough person that I don't think she has much in the way of secrets. If she has one, it's how much she cares for the people she has a "strictly professional" relationship with.
22. If 11 and 9 were racing to a destination, who would get there first?
Well, Brutha's pretty slow, and everyone knows that the Fourplay always comes first . . .
23. 3 and 7 tell conflicting versions of events. Which is more reliable?
Ooh, toughie. I'm going to say Merry, mostly because Allen is more polite and thus more likely to omit things that might embarrass someone. But they're both pretty scrupulously honest people.
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?
Okay, let me get this straight: Hermione and Brutha have teamed up to save the world from Aburatsubo's plot to turn everybody gay so that he has a shot with Takeo, and Fourplay is his double-agent (typical - he must have been working with Vibrator Repair Man on the side). Meanwhile, Aburatsubo has kidnapped . . . a cherubim? How? . . . so they go see Saki to get a reading on the vibes of the situation, and she sends them to Merry, who somehow gives them what they need to save the day (a pipe of Old Toby? Advice about Maiar, which is what Progo would be to him? Oh, wait, I know . . . )
"Untying the Knots of Memory"
25. If you had to walk home through a bad neighborhood late at night, would you feel safer in the company of 7 or 8?
Allen. No question. Not only is he better armed, he has this thing about protecting women . . .
