Choose twelve characters from your fandoms, then answer the questions about them. Do not look at the questions before you make the list.

1. The (Tenth) Doctor (Doctor Who)
2. Obi-Wan Kenobi (Star Wars)
3. Captain Jack Sparrow (Pirates of the Caribbean)
4. Aragorn (Lord of the Rings)
5. Ianto Jones (Torchwood)
6. Remus Lupin (Harry Potter)
7. Aslan (Chronicles of Narnia)
8. Lee (Apollo) Adama (Battlestar Galactica)
9. Qui-Gon Jinn (Star Wars)
10. Captain Jack Harkness (Doctor Who and Torchwood)
11. Will Turner (Pirates of the Caribbean)
12. Inigo Montoya (The Princess Bride)

1. Who would make a better college professor, 6 or 11? What subjects would they teach?
(Remus Lupin or Will Turner) Well, considering Lupin's already taught a class, and did an awesometastic job at it, I'll have to go with him. Though Will could do a good job, I'm sure. As long as the subject was Smithing 101. ;)

2. Do you think 4 is hot? How hot?
(Aragorn) Of course he's hott! He's Aragorn! Seriously, we need more men like him in the world. How many men do you know who would fight for decades not only to regain his rightful place as King, but also to prove his worth to his adoptive father so that he could marry his daughter? That is incredibly hott. Dang. I want a piece of that.

3. 12 sends 8 on a mission. What is it, and does it succeed?
(Inigo Montoya and Lee Adama) Well, *giggle* I'm not quite sure. Let's see...Inigo, in his old(er) age decides he wants to retire from being the Dread Pirate Roberts, though he did love the job. Seeing Apollo one day in a bar, Inigo liked the look of him...seemed piratey enough. So he bought this guy a drink and proposed a proposition to him. "You look the type of man who needs a mission. What do you say to retrieving for me some fruit." Apollo stared at Inigo. "Not just any fruit, but a golden pear from the Land of Green." Apollo took this to mean Greenland and went away. Of course, the mission failed, since Apollo felt the call of the stars and he went back to the Galactica. Learning this, Inigo mourned and sought out this one guy called Norrington...

4. What is or would be 9's favorite book?
(Qui-Gon Jinn) Ooo, interesting question. I could definitely see him reading Shakespeare. But that doesn't narrow it down much. Hm...I could see him reading a comedy, maybe a romance, somehow I think he'd like a tragedy, possibly a history. *Five minutes later* After narrowing it down to the comedies and then between Much Ado About Nothing and Twelfth Night, I'm going with Much Ado. It's a romantic comedy (which may make him sad and think about Tahl, but it's alright, he's not that much of an emo kid) with some drama, but a happy ending. He'd love the happy ending.

5. Would it make more sense for 2 to swear fealty to 6, or the other way around?
(Obi-Wan Kenobi and Remus Lupin) Hm...in a way, they're both servants...Obi-Wan to the Jedi and Lupin to the Order, as well as his lycanthropy. But I'd have to say that Lupin would swear fealty to Obi-Wan. Lupin doesn't seem the type to take control when some other leader type is around. Obi-Wan does take control since it is his duty at time so I could see it happen.

6. For some reason, 5 is looking for a roommate. Should s/he share a studio apartment with 9 or with 10?
(Ianto Jones and Qui-Gon Jinn or Captain Jack Harkness) Jack. Ianto would definitely go for Jack and not just because of "stopwatches." They've worked together and they already practically live together at work, so they'd do better together as flatmates.

7. 2, 7 and 12 have dinner together. Where do they go, and what do they discuss?
(Obi-Wan Kenobi, Aslan, and Inigo Montoya) LOL, this is a great combination. Um, they go to Ryan's and discuss philosophy. Obi-Wan and Aslan become good friends right away since they don't fight unless really needed. Also, the two discuss the afterlife and what comes of them when they're gone from the physical world. Poor Inigo feels left out and recounts his adventures saving the damsel in distress along with his friends. Obi-Wan and Aslan smile poliitely and decide it's time for dessert.

8. 3 challenges 10 to a duel. What happens?
(Captain Jack Sparrow and Captain Jack Harkness) LOL, how is this possible? I thought I'd never see the day! Anywho, Jack challenges Jack to a duel for kidnapping Will (who would've thought that Jack (Harkness) was attracted to young blacksmiths?) since Jack kind of needs him in order to save the world...again..., so Jack is all set to shoot Jack in the head and does so. But then Jack pops back up and his wound disappears. He then proceeds to kidnap Jack (Sparrow) and they all hang out on the Black Pearl. Though, technically, Jack is still Captain of the Pearl and Will is still hanging out there, so Jack didn't really do much kidnapping. Life's a strange thing, no?

9. If 1 stole 8's most precious possession, how would 8 get it back?
(The (Tenth) Doctor and Lee Adama) Let's see, so Ten steals Apollo's father...because there's something about William Adama that the TARDIS likes. Apollo, in all his Apollo-ish glory, goes on a suicide mission to get his father back and almost dies in the process...as well as nearly sending Ten into his next regeneration. But he likes his body too much, especially his tongue, so instead a small uninhabited continent was blown up in the process. Take that for what you will.

10. What kind of plot device would you use if you wanted 4 and 1 to work together?
(Aragorn and the (Tenth) Doctor) Hm...well...that's kind of easy, no? Ten has a TARDIS, all he has to do is set the coordinates like usual and then something will inadvertantly go wrong and he'll land in Middle-earth right when Aragorn and Co. are attacking the Black Gates. Aliens do come in handy in crises situations.

12. If 7 visited you for the weekend, how would you get along?
(Aslan) Hm...Aslan visiting me for the weekend. Well, considering he's a huge lion and my dorm room is a bit on the small side, he would take up half the room. But other than that, I do think we'd get along.

13. If you could command 3 to perform any one task or service for you, what would it be?
(Captain Jack Sparrow) Tee hee, so many things come to mind, but I shall be good, I promise. I'd probably make him follow me around for a week (or a day, depending on how land-sick he gets) so I could show him off to the college. I do love a man in pirate garb.

14. If 2 had to choose sides between 4 and 5, which would it be?
(Obi-Wan Kenobi and Aragorn or Ianto Jones) I think Obi-Wan would go the Gondorian route and stand with Aragorn. Not that he'd think Ianto is a terrible guy, but Obi-Wan seems to like honorable men more than the emo kids. And that is not meant in any slashy way. I hate slash...ew.

15. What would 5 most likely be arrested for?
(Ianto Jones) Oh dear, probably taking something out of the HUB and using it without knowing exactly what it does. Or else he could be arrested for stopwatch abuse. ;)

16. What is 6's secret?
(Remus Lupin) This one's pretty easy. He's a werewolf. In a time when people hate dark creatures and don't trust them. Although Lupin does have friends, he's still persecuted and I'm worried for his life at the moment. And this is me talking, but I'm pretty sure he secretly loves Tonks, but he's too scared to admit it. He doesn't want to get hurt and he doesn't want to hurt her so he's not going to admit it easily. Poor kid.

14th-Jan-2007 01:01 pm - Intro and Boringness

Right, so in the hopefully near future, this spot will be used for Torchwood one-shots. Yay for fanfiction! Of course, I've been personalizing this space first a bit just to make it feel like me *and possibly my other co-writers if they write anything* before anything shows up.

I'm sure no one will before we post anything, but if anyone wants to friend us, feel free! We like friends, they make us feel loved!

Anywho, this is a terrible intro, but I'm sure things will get better. Laterz!
