A fun game to play -

I found this on Raindrops and Moonlight and loved it.  I loved reading her answers.  So, characters from a fandom...?  Well, not sure all of these qualify as a fandom - but who cares! XD  Here goes:

List twelve characters from any fandom, then answer the questions below.

1.  Aslan (The Chronicles of Narnia)
2.  Jane (Jane and the Dragon)
3.  Blanche (The Shadow of the Bear)
4.  Howl (Howl's Moving Castle)
5.  Sophie (of course!)
6.  Mrs. De Winter (Rebecca)
7.  King Alfred (The Ballad of the White Horse)
8.  Jane (Boston Jane)
9.  Hiccup (How to Train Your Dragon)
10.  Sawako Kuronuma (Kimi ni Todoke)
11.  Percy Jackson (Percy Jackson and the Olympians)
12.  Nancy Drew

1.  Who would make a better  college professor, 6 or 11?
Mrs. De Winter vs. Percy
That's hard, but I think Mrs. De Winter would be able to handle that.

2.  Do you think 2 is cute?
Jane?  Uh... not really.  Shoulda put someone cute on the list in hindsight.

3.  12 sends 8 out on a mission.  What is it? Does it succeed?
Definitely not.  If you read Nancy Drew, you know that quite often, her friends don't really succeed in their mission.  Not to mention that Jane Peck is not known for getting things done without incident.

4.  What is or would be 9's favorite book?
For Hiccup - Probably something like Dragon Rider or a book on how to draw dragons - although he's quite good at that already.

5.  Would it make more sense for 2 to swear fealty to 6, or the other way around? 
Yes, definitely.  Jane is a knight in training, and Mrs. De Winter has married into wealth and rank.

6.  For some reason, 5 is looking for a roommate.  Should (s)he room with 9 or 10?
Oh, I think Sophie would have to room with Sawako, not Hiccup.  Still, Sawako and Sophie are complete opposites - do you think that would help them get along?

7.  2, 7, and 12 are going out for dinner.  Where do they go and what do they discuss?
That would be an interesting dinner party.  Nancy and Jane are sort in common in that they're independent and like to solve mysteries and so on.  On the other hand, Jane and King Alfred both wield a sword - and I think Jane is from England.  They probably go to an Oven-Brick Pizzeria and talk about... uh... fighting against enemies? lol

8. 3 challenges 10 to a duel.  Who wins?
Yikes!  Not only is it unlikely that Blanche would challenge anyone to a duel - as far as I can see - but with Sawako???  Those two are peas in a pod!  Blanche might have some experience because of who she knows and what she's been through; Sawako would do her best though, so, who knows?

9.  If 1 stole 8's most precious possession, would (s)he get it back?
I doubt Aslan would steal Jane's wedding dress.


10Suggest a story title in which 7 and 12 both attain what they desire.
King Alfred wants England; Nancy wants to solve all mysteries that cross her path, despite danger.  That's a tough one!  How about Defiance?  ...Maybe? lol

11.  What kind of plot device would you use if you wanted 1 and 4 to work together?
Oh, goodness, Howl would be a dead man with Aslan.  But if Howl were royal wizard to High King Peter (or one of the other kings), then they would save Narnia together.

12.  If 7 visited you for the weekend, how would it go?
I don't think it would be much fun.  Unless King Alfred would teach me to wield sword and dagger!

13.  If you could command 3 to perform any service or task for you, what would it be? 
I don't think I have anything for Blanche.

14.  Do any of your friends write or draw 11?
NO.

15.  If 2 had to choose sides between 4 and 5, what side would (s)he choose?
Pick a side between husband and wife?!  Hard!  Howl usually ends up being right, but Sophie usually has a good case.  Jane probably wouldn't pick a side, actually.  That's not her thing.

16.  What might 10 shout out while charging into battle?
Whatever everyone else was shouting - Sawako wouldn't charge into battle usually anyway.  There are no wars at her high school.


17.  If you had to choose a song to best describe 8, what would it be?
I don't know, Break Away maybe?  Perhaps I ought to write one for her.

18.  1, 6, and 12 are having a 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 it?
Mrs. De Winter certainly wouldn't, and Nancy would politely offer it to Aslan, but Aslan would probably suggest the two women split it.

19.  What would be a good pickup line for 2 to say to 10?
 ...How about, "What are you doing in a potato sack?  Well, hold on tight!  I have to spin down a swinging pole!"

20.  What would 5 most likely get arrested for?
Sophie get arrested?!  Never!  But probably she'd screw something and the Witch of the Waste or somebody would have her arrested for no real reason.

21.  What is 6's secret?
Mrs. De Winter is terribly shy and afraid of the memory of Rebecca.

22.  If 11 and 9 were racing to a destination, who would get there first?
Uh, Percy?  He and Hiccup are about the same really.  Hiccup is probably younger and weaker though.  But Hiccup has a Night Fury.

23.  If you had to walk through a bad neighborhood late at night, who would you feel more comfortable walking with, 7 or 8?
Jane Peck would do nothing for me in a bad neighborhood except maybe faint.  King Alfred would be better.

24.  1 and 9 reluctantly team up to save the world from the threat posed by 4's sinister secret organization11 offers to help them, but it is later discovered that s/he is actually a spy for 4.  Meanwhile, 4 has kidnapped 12 in an attempt to force her/his 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?
Aslan teams up with Hiccup, reluctantly mind you, to save the world from Howl's sinister secret organization (I believe it!).  Percy offers to help but they later discover he's a double agent really working for Howl.  Meanwhile, Howl kidnapped Nancy to force her surrender, so they seek out Blanche on the wise advice of Sophie (oh totally), and Blanche gives them what they need to complete their quest (I could see that).
Oh, hysterical!  What about "The Unbelievable!"

(Why would Aslan need something from Blanche???)



Ah, what fun!  You should try it - it's even more fun than you think!
