And the other meme, as promised. This one ganked from [livejournal.com profile] fiareynne, and probably the last one that will catch my interest for like the next five years.


Name a series and I'll tell you the character(s) I would:

1. Bake cupcakes for:
2. Trust with the keys to my car:
3. Put thumbtacks on the chair thereof:
4. Have a crush on:
5. Pack up and leave if they moved next door:
6. Vote for President:
7. Pick as my partner in a buddy movie:
8. Pair up:
9. Vote off the island and into the volcano:
10. Wheedle into fixing my MP3 player:


ETA: Fictitious fandoms, please. Characters with actual personalities instead of fan-projected ones are a lot easier to deal with.

Can I ask for baseball? XD

(Or if you need a specific team... the Tigers, I guess. But I'd rather in general.)

[identity profile] remindmeofthe.livejournal.com 2008-07-28 01:46 am (UTC)(link)
Damn, I forgot to specify fictitious fandoms. I'm going to have to do that for the rest of my life, aren't I?

[identity profile] akatonbo.livejournal.com 2008-07-28 01:53 am (UTC)(link)
Aw, nuts. (I'm up to my eyebrows in... not baseball FICTION fandom, that still doesn't work for me (except for the huge honking cracknest of original stuff heavily inspired by real people), but certainly being a baseball fan, right now, so.)

Nothin' for me, then, I'm not watching fiction on tv at all lately.

[identity profile] remindmeofthe.livejournal.com 2008-07-28 01:54 am (UTC)(link)
Heh. I know exactly what you mean. I spent two years into baseball and nothing else. I'm actually kind of relieved to come back to media-based fandom. I didn't realize how much I'd missed it.

[identity profile] lissa-ann.livejournal.com 2008-07-28 03:17 am (UTC)(link)
I dunno...can you do Supernatural? I'm thinking the cast is too small to do that.

That's the only fandom (outside of baseball) that you write that I know.

[identity profile] remindmeofthe.livejournal.com 2008-07-28 03:39 am (UTC)(link)
Don't see why not. Nothing about it having to be regular characters only.

1. Bake cupcakes for: Dean. Sam never eats, but Dean would appreciate free cupcakes.
2. Trust with the keys to my car: Sam. I'm not sure I want to know how Dean would respond to any car that isn't the Impala.
3. Put thumbtacks on the chair thereof: Madison. That episode was annoying. Plus, her name is fucking MADISON, like, sorry, only mermaids and innocent young children of well-meaning yuppie idiot parents can get away with that.
4. Have a crush on: I think we all know the answer to that. *points at icon*
5. Pack up and leave if they moved next door: Any given Winchester. Nothing against them, I'm sure they make perfectly decent neighbors in and of themselves, but I just don't want to deal with all the attendant baggage. Like, demons showing up, or the boys getting home at three in the morning covered in blood. I can just hear the property values plummetting . . .
6. Vote for President: Sam. Most likely character to have liberal politics, very smart, and wouldn't let himself be jerked around. President Sammy would get shit DONE.
7. Pick as my partner in a buddy movie: Sam. John isn't really the buddy type, and I do like Dean much better than Sam, but he'd think I was hitting on him.
8. Pair up: John/Jo. What? In a fandom full of incest, a thirty year age gap is NOTHING.
9. Vote off the island and into the volcano: Can I do character background and keep the character? Because the cheap last-minute sympathy-bid abuse bullshit with Bela has got to go. She was much better when she was just a sociopath for no good reason.
10. Wheedle into fixing my MP3 player: Dean. Because, as someone pointed out on the entry I got this meme from, the dude turned a Walkman into an EMF detector. He could fix my MP3 player in a heartbeat.

[identity profile] lissa-ann.livejournal.com 2008-07-28 03:49 am (UTC)(link)
Huh. John/Jo. I don't think anyone's considered that one before. Yeah, she might be spunky enough to handle him...

And HEY! I liked Madison! I liked her about as much as I liked Sarah. I'd like to see Sarah return.

I fully support Sammy for president. Even at his current age.

I need a generic Supernatural icon.

[identity profile] remindmeofthe.livejournal.com 2008-07-28 03:55 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, I've read some good John/Jo. I'd love to see them together, or at least interacting. That'd be very interesting.

Eh, I have no problem with Madison herself. I mostly just found her boring in an annoying episode. I figure, thumbtacks would be the least of her problems.

[identity profile] cacopheny.livejournal.com 2008-07-28 03:17 am (UTC)(link)
Does it have to be a series? :B Cuz I could totally give you Dogma and Pirates. I mean... Dogma has several movies with a COUPLE of the same characters >.> And Pirates has three movies. That counts as a series, right? XD

[identity profile] remindmeofthe.livejournal.com 2008-07-28 03:53 am (UTC)(link)
I'll do PotC, because I'm a little Dogma'd out right now. *g*

1. Bake cupcakes for: Gibbs. He seems like a man who would always happily welcome a cupcake.
2. Trust with the keys to my car: Governor Swann, because he's the ONLY character in all three movies who might not go haring off on some severely damaging car chase if he saw someone he thought ought to be chased.
3. Put thumbtacks on the chair thereof: PotC-era Barbossa. Thanks to the curse, he wouldn't notice, and there are very few characters in the trilogy I'd be willing to offend.
4. Have a crush on: Norrington! It would be completely non-sexual adoration, because, you know, he's a boy (and not played by JDM), but that fully counts, right?
5. Pack up and leave if they moved next door: Pintel and Ragetti. They just seem like they'd throw a lot of loud parties with unsavory guests.
6. Vote for President: Elizabeth. She's smart and picks things up quickly and knows how to maneuver and manipulate when need be.
7. Pick as my partner in a buddy movie: Jack. He knows where to find the rum.
8. Pair up: Jack/Norrington. I've shipped them for years.
9. Vote off the island and into the volcano: I'm - not sure, actually. I don't think I dislike any of the characters enough to wish them painful burny deaths.
10. Wheedle into fixing my MP3 player: PASS. The movie is set in the vague 1700s-ish. Not even Will the blacksmith would have a chance. I'd rather try to fix it myself.

[identity profile] cacopheny.livejournal.com 2008-07-28 04:32 am (UTC)(link)
Phweeheeheehee. That was cool XD I wish I knew more fandoms, or I'd totally do this, myself.

[identity profile] remindmeofthe.livejournal.com 2008-07-28 04:08 am (UTC)(link)
1. Bake cupcakes for: Wilson. He always seems like he needs a cupcake. And it would have to be a full batch, because you know House would steal at least three.
2. Trust with the keys to my car: Foreman. The whole car theft thing is in the past and he seems like he would be a responsible driver.
3. Put thumbtacks on the chair thereof: Cameron. Shut up, Cameron.
4. Have a crush on: Cuddy. Smart, headstrong, successful, and also hot woman? Yes plz.
5. Pack up and leave if they moved next door: House. Oh dear GOD, House. I mean, he'd probably just as soon never acknowledge his neighbors exist, but there are just too many things that could go horribly wrong.
6. Vote for President: Cuddy, because see above.
7. Pick as my partner in a buddy movie: I hate to say it, but Cameron. That way she can be the girly one and I can be the wacky one.
8. Pair up: House/Chase, obvs. And I think we know my feelings about exactly how the cane should be involved.
9. Vote off the island and into the volcano: Vogner. You're badly written and boring, go away.
10. Wheedle into fixing my MP3 player: Chase. Hey, he can do hypnosis. Who knows what other hidden talents he might have?

Red Dwarf!

1. Bake cupcakes for: Lister. I mean, my other choices include a hologram, an android, and a being who evolved from a species that licks its own butt. And you already said Kochanski. Lister's tastebuds are pretty much shot from all the curry, but he could deal with cupcakes better than the majority of his crewmates.
2. Trust with the keys to my car: Kryten. I have every confidence he'd treat it well.
3. Put thumbtacks on the chair thereof: The Cat, just to see if he'd be more worried about his backside or his suit.
4. Have a crush on: Oh god, do I have to?
5. Pack up and leave if they moved next door: Rimmer. He'd never stop asking you round for a cup of tea and an interminably long slideshow.
6. Vote for President: I had a Rimmer for President icon for a while, way back in 2004. The icon is lost, but my explanation (http://catslash.livejournal.com/85421.html) remains.
7. Pick as my partner in a buddy movie: Lister. We'd just hang out and chill. It'd be a boring movie, but whatever, I wouldn't be stuck watching it.
8. Pair up: Rimmer/Lister. Is there any other ship?
9. Vote off the island and into the volcano: Kryten. Oh, what? I'm sure he'd be fine. We can always go back and pick him up.
10. Wheedle into fixing my MP3 player: Ace. He can do anything. What a guy!

[identity profile] chocolate-frapp.livejournal.com 2008-07-28 04:56 pm (UTC)(link)
I always thought Lister was kind of cute.

[identity profile] karaokegal.livejournal.com 2008-07-28 02:18 pm (UTC)(link)
Weird. I thought I commented last night thanking you for finding a new Fandom meme just when I thought I'd run out.

Anyway: Torchwood

[identity profile] remindmeofthe.livejournal.com 2008-07-28 09:50 pm (UTC)(link)
You are most welcome. I usually can't be bothered to do memes, even when I'm tagged, but this one was creative enough to look like fun.

1. Bake cupcakes for: Rhys. He puts up with an astounding amount of crap because of Gwen's job. He could use some cupcakes.
2. Trust with the keys to my car: Adam. He was only around for like five minutes, so he wouldn't have much time to do anything to it.
3. Put thumbtacks on the chair thereof: GRAY. OH MY GOD QUIT TRYING TO BE CONNOR. YOU WILL NEVER BE CONNOR.
4. Have a crush on: Martha. I don't care if she's technically a DW character for the time being. She's MARTHA.
5. Pack up and leave if they moved next door: Hmm. No one in Torchwood. I mean, they're never home. How could I object to neighbors who are never home? Probably John Hart. Failing murder rehab makes me a tad uneasy.
6. Vote for President: Cal Chandler Jack. He'd charm the rest of the world leaders into whatever we needed, and we could certainly count on him not to be conservative.
7. Pick as my partner in a buddy movie: Gwen. I think she'd be the most fun to hang out with. She's not quite as fucked up as the rest of Torchwood just yet.
8. Pair up: EVERYONE. Okay, fine, if it has to be a PAIR, Jack/Owen. Or Owen/Ianto. Though obviously Jack/Owen/Ianto would be the best answer here.
9. Vote off the island and into the volcano: Gray. Preferably with the thumbtacks still stuck firmly in place.
10. Wheedle into fixing my MP3 player: Tosh. Not only would she fix it, but it would work better and have about a zillion upgrades.

[identity profile] karaokegal.livejournal.com 2008-07-28 09:55 pm (UTC)(link)
Totally Tosh for the MP3 and ditto on the Gray thumbtacks. The rest of mine were a bit different. (As you can imagine.)

[identity profile] remindmeofthe.livejournal.com 2008-07-28 10:10 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, what, you don't ship Owen/Ianto? ;)

[identity profile] karaokegal.livejournal.com 2008-07-28 10:17 pm (UTC)(link)
Only when written by [livejournal.com profile] paperclipbitch.

I want me my Jack/Owen hate!sex, damnit! :)

[identity profile] remindmeofthe.livejournal.com 2008-07-28 10:18 pm (UTC)(link)
I'll sign up for that!

Seeing that Torchwood's disappeard, Doctor Who.

[identity profile] remindmeofthe.livejournal.com 2008-08-03 10:36 pm (UTC)(link)
A bit late, but here I am!

1. Bake cupcakes for: Mickey. He gets no end of crap on the show. I bet he'd appreciate the gesture.
2. Trust with the keys to my car: Donna's mother. She's horrible, but I bet she knows how to take care of someone else's car while she's using it.
3. Put thumbtacks on the chair thereof: Adam, the short-term companion in series one. Guy was annoying. Not annoying enough to deserve being stranded with a head that opens at the snap of a finger, but annoying enough for thumbtacks.
4. Have a crush on: Martha. Smart, gorgeous, saved the world - oh yeah.
5. Pack up and leave if they moved next door: The Saxons. That's just a little too much homicidal crazy for my tastes.
6. Vote for President: Harold Saxon Harriet Jones, former Prime Minister! If they don't appreciate her in the UK, we'll take her!
7. Pick as my partner in a buddy movie: Donna. I would love to hang out with Donna.
8. Pair up: Hmm. I'm not really interested in any pairings on this show. I have always liked the idea of Martha/Rose, though.
9. Vote off the island and into the volcano: Rose. You have outstayed your welcome, Tyler. Piss off.
10. Wheedle into fixing my MP3 player: The Doctor, of course. I'm not entirely certain it would play music when I got it back, but it would do something else really cool.
