Gakked from

Pick twelve characters; number them. Do not click on the cut tag until you have. Then answer them for your twelve characters.
1. Jack O'Neill (SG-1)
2. Duncan MacLeod (Highlander)
3. Brenda Leigh Johnson (The Closer)
4. Charlie Epps (Numb3rs)
5. Lorelai Gilmore (Gilmore girls)
6. Lex Luthor (Smallville)
7. George Lass (Dead Like Me)
8. Amanda (Highlander)
9. Philip J. Fry (Futurama)
10. John Carter (ER)
11. Samantha Carter (SG-1)
12. Emma Peel (The Avengers)
Have you ever read a Six/Eleven fic? Do you want to?
No, I never have. Would I want to? If it's well written, sure. I'll read most any pairing if the writer makes it entertaining enough.
Do you think Four is hot? How hot?
I think the actor is a handsome fella, sure.
What would happen if Twelve got Eight pregnant?
If Emma Peel got Amanda pregant, that would be two kinds of impossible; they're both women and immortals in Highlander are sterile. So the question seems moot.
Can you rec any fic(s) about Nine?
Not really. Futurama is a cartoon. A funny cartoon. Animated humor doesn't translate well to written words.
Would Two and Six make a good couple?
Not really. Even if we assume for the purposes of argument that it's gonna be a slash relationship, Duncan is almost as much of a straight arrow as Clark Kent, but with a lot more experience of the world--and a much darker world, where killing is commonplace. I can't imagine him cutting Lex nearly as much slack as Clark does.
Five/Nine or Five/Ten? Why?
Lorelai/Fry or Lorelai/John Carter? Lorelai might find Fry amusing for a time, but his utter inability to grasp most of her rapid-fire wordplay would leave her cold. Plus, Fry's, uh, performance, has been the butt of many a joke on Futurama. Lorelai has higher standards than that, I'd think.
On the other hand, Lorelai's parents would be ecstatic if they learned that she was in a relationship with John Carter of the (insanely wealthy) Chicago Carters. Which of course means that however much she likes him, she could never stay with him. She'd probably hang around with John a little longer than Fry...but not much longer.
What would happen if Seven walked in on Two and Twelve having sex?
George walks in on Duncan MacLeod and Emma Peel having sex. Hmmm. If George has found her way into someone's home while they're in flagrant delicto, chances are it's because she's there to take someone's soul, meaning that one or the other of them is about to shuffle off this mortal coil. It could be either of them, really. If it's the immortal (or maybe they both are--otherwise Emma Peel is probably a little long in the tooth for Duncan's tastes), George will probably be rather shocked and amazed by the Quickening.
Make up a summary for Three/Ten fic.
Brenda Leigh Johnson/John Carter. One of these two is away from his (or her) usual stomping grounds, which suggests that it's a Very Special Episode. I imagine that John Carter has pulled strings to get the moderately well-known Closer to come to Chicago to investigate a death and find the culprit. It must be a big deal if the Carter money can't buy closure from the local PD, so perhaps someone even more powerful is the killer, and John wants justice done. They spend a lot of time together while Brenda investigates unofficially in the face of indifference--or outright hostility--from the local authorities, her accent getting thicker and sweeter the closer she gets to dropping the hammer on the bad guy.
Is there any such thing as One/Eight fluff?
Jack O'Neill/Amanda? Almost certainly. Amanda would find Jack irresistable. He plays dumb (a trait she is certainly familiar with), he's a dangerous man (always a good thing in Amanda's friends, given her habit of getting in over her head), a smartass, and much less of a stick-in-the-mud than Duncan. And he wouldn't hesitate to shoot her (assuming he knows she's immortal) to make a point; she's pretend to be shocked and appalled, but she'd admire him....before she made off with his credit cards in retribution.
Suggest a title for a Seven/Twelve hurt/comfort fic.
George/Emma Peel hurt/comfort fic? The mind boggles. George doesn't comfort--she takes the souls of those about to die. George doesn't need comforting--she's already dead, and nothing hurts her more than briefly.
What kind of plot device would you use if you wanted Four to deflower One?
Charlie Epps deflowering Jack O'Neill? The mind, once again, boggles. For one thing, Charlie is a couple or three decades too late. Unless we're talking slash. Which I guess we are. Uh...alien spores? Mind control? Pheremones? All of the above.
Does anyone on your friends list read Seven slash?
George slash?
Well...I'm on my friends list (it's the handiest way to read my Livejournal) and I read George slash. What there is of it, which isn't much. Anyone else? I have no idea.
Does anyone on your friends list read Three het?
Not as far as I know. I haven't seen any Closer fanfic, though I don't doubt that there is some out there somewhere.
Does anyone on your friends list write or draw Eleven?
Sam Carter? Yeah,
jedibuttercup for sure. Others too, I expect.
Would anyone on your friends list write Two/Four/Five?
Duncan/Charlie/Lex? Are you kidding? Of course some of them would. And have, for all I know.
What might Ten scream at a moment of great passion?
"I need some lovin', STAT!"
If you wrote a song-fic about Eight, which song would you choose?
I have no idea.
If you wrote a One/Six/Twelve fic, what would the warnings be?
Jack O'Neill/Lex Luthor/Emma Peel -- NC-17! You've been warned!
What might be a good pick-up line for Two to use on Ten?
"The first rule of Slash Club is, never talk about Slash Club."
When was the last time you read a fic about Five?
It's been many a moon. But I don't go looking for Gilmore girls fic.
What is Six's super-sekrit kink?
I'd say that it's Clark, but his kink for Clark is so blatant that even people who've never even heard of "slash" can see it. So I'd say it would have to be something neither sinister nor cool. Country line-dancing, maybe. Lex puts on a disguise and visits bars where he enthusiastically participates in line dancing for hours before skulking home to the mansion near dawn.
Would Eleven shag Nine? Drunk or sober?
Would Sam Carter shag Philip J. Fry? Not on your life. You can't even tell me she shagged Pete, and she was engaged to him.
If Three and Seven get together, who tops?
Brenda Leigh Johnson/George Lass? Are you kidding? Brenda would so dominate George it wouldn't be funny.
"One and Nine are in a happy relationship until Nine suddenly runs off with Four. One, broken-hearted, has a hot one-night stand with Eleven and a brief unhappy affair with Twelve, then follows the wise advice of Five and finds true love with Three." What title would you give this fic? Name three people on your friends list who might read it. Name one person who should write it.
Hmmm. Duncan is in a happy relationship with Fry, until Fry runs off with Charlie. Duncan, broken-hearted, has a hot one-night-stand with Sam Carter and a brief, unhappy affair with Emma Peel (unhappy because Emma dies...and George is there to take her soul!), then follows the wise advice of Lorelai Gilmore and finds true love with Brenda Leigh Johnson.
Title: "Tales Of Interest!" (Clearly, this is a story Fry watches unfold on the What If Machine in Professor Farnsworth's laboratory.)
Who would read it?
turned_earth,
jedibuttercup and
seawasp (co-author of Terminators of Endearment on usenet) would probably take a look.
Who should write it?
turned_earth, of course. Who else could do it the zany justice it deserves?
How would you feel if Seven/Eight was canon?
Surprised but entertained. An immortal and a grim reaper. How...fateful.
Well, that was amusing. For me, anyhow.
