meme!

[canadiandiamond]

Much like onlyonechoice, I also have incomplete memes and works in progress I think, but this sounds like fun. XD

1. I write down a list of 10 characters.

2. You choose however many of those you like and ask me a question about them. Examples: "What happens when 5 and 9 are forced to take care of a baby?" or "1, 4, and 8 walk into a bar. What happens next?" or "What does 3 do when s/he finds out that 10 is pregnant with 7's child?" You get the idea. :D

3. I tell you about these scenarios!

The more questions the better.

Have at it! :)

Looks like it didn't go through the first time.

5 and 8 are reaching for the last 6-pack of a specific brand of beer at a liquor store.

[canadiandiamond.livejournal.com]

Bernard Black (from Black Books) and Keith Mars (from Veronica Mars) reach for the last 6 pack in a store.

Bernard somehow was accepted to attend a wine tasting show in California, so he, Manny, and Fran fly from England to the US. They get lost from the airport and end up in Neptune, thanks to Manny's abhorrently awful misinterpretation of the GPS ("It's in American! I don't speak American!" would be his excuse). To calm himself, of course, requires alcohol, like everything, and Bernard stops to get something at the liquor store.

He reaches for a six pack of Budweiser, as it's supposed to be the King of Beers here, but as he does Keith Mars reaches for it too. It's the last 6 pack and Keith, former Sheriff of Neptune, has had a hard day. Veronica is off doing who knows what, he's not had any luck with his latest investigation, and it's Friday. And now someone's trying to take the last six pack from him. Uh, no.

Bernard would start spouting rubbish about the Queen and how it was his God given right to try the King of Beers as a subject of Her Majesty. Keith would flash his badge and would claim he had his hand on the beer first. It would end up with Bernard in custody, with Manny and Fran comically trying to get him out, and Keith walks away with the spoils.

1 and 7 are mistaken for a couple by one of their friends and introduced as such before they can clarify.

Veronica Mars (... from Veronica Mars, of course XD) and Rachel Berry (Glee).

Veronica had only just met Rachel a few minutes ago at a house party they were both attending, thanks to different friends of theirs. Both of them were underage yet Veronica was drinking alcohol, oops.

To try and cover her own underage drinkingness, Veronica queried Rachel if she was old enough to be drinking the alleged "virgin" Cosmo she had in her had. Rachel emphatically denied any wrongdoing whatsoever, this was a tragedy, and was about to storm out when she remembered she'd been stamped on the way in to show she was underage and couldn't be served alcohol even if she'd wanted it, which she didn't, thank you very much. She presented her hand to Veronica to prove this, and the other girl took her hand to check for herself.

Before Veronica could confirm this and let go of the brunette's hand, however, who should wander over but her ex, Logan Echolls. Of course he makes a sarcastic remark to her about her now being a lesbian since she couldn't have him and now no man would do. Veronica was having none of that and played right along, holding tight to Rachel's hand, much to her surprise. She couldn't get a word in edgewise over Veronica and Logan's bickering, though, and just stood there, holding the blonde's hand, waiting her turn to speak, thinking the only way this could be worse was if someone walked by and through a slushie in her face.

2 and 3 are at carnival and happen to be standing next to one another as they watch a stage magician.

[canadiandiamond.livejournal.com]

Xander Harris (BtVS) and Harry Dresden (from the Jim Butcher novels, not the tv show XD).

Xander is watching the magic show with great interest, trying to figure out how they're doing what they're doing. Of course he knows first hand that there's such a thing as real magic, but he doesn't think that's what's going on there.

Harry Dresden knows all too well that there's such a thing as real magic. He's here to meet a fellow practitioner of the arts himself, and his contact, having a wicked sense of humour, decided they should meet near a "magician's" performance. He'd arrived a few minutes early and took in his surroundings, and found himself standing next to a guy studying the performance with rapt attention. Smirking a little, Harry leaned over to speak to him. "It's not real, y'know."

Xander blinked as he looked away from the stage, then put on a smirk of his own. "Oh, it is. I mean. Not this, this guy's probably got a birthday party to get to right after this. I've seen the real deal, though." Many, many times. Of course it was Buffy et al who'd done most of the fighting and all, but still. If only he knew, Xander thought.

Harry just shook his head. He was tempted to do a little magic himself, put a little fright into the kid, just for kicks. He had no idea if his contact would have any tricks up their sleeve, though, so best to save his will for that, just in case. "If only you knew."

"HEY, I was gonna say th... I've seen witches. Lots of 'em. Lesbian witches, even." Top that, stranger! "...oh, and nice jacket." Lulz.

Harry just glared at him for a second and walked away before he said or did something he'd regret. Kids.

Yeah, you'd better run, Xander thought, before looking through the crowd to confirm where Buffy and Willow were. Just in case. That guy did look a little tough. >.>

I totally picked the most ironic setting for these two. =)

You did, that was a fantastic choice. :D

4 comes upon 9 contemplating jumping off a bridge.

[canadiandiamond.livejournal.com]

Malcolm Reynolds (Firefly) comes across Rupert Giles (BtVS) contemplating jumping off a bridge.

Putting aside the whole 'from a different time' issue, Malcolm would likely come across Giles peering over a bridge, not standing on top or anything but silently looking down and wondering if he'd be better off jumping and ending it all. Mal, able to recognize that look or people with that thought pattern bouncing around inside their skulls after Serenity Valley, chats him up. Probably tells him some sad stories of his own, and how the best you could do is to not give up. Giles would never admit to having thought that, of course, and talking to Mal makes him comes to his senses. Mal would probably try to recruit him to become part of the crew. XD
