Character Meme - Please play along!

Look! A meme. I've been seeing this one around, and I thought it looked fun. And you all get to play along! It's about characters, so it'll be based on Strangetown, Here We Come. Here's how it goes:

1) Make a list of 15 characters first.

2) Ask your flist to post questions in the comments. (Go ahead, ask several! That's a lot of characters.) For example: "4, 6, 12 & 15 are starting a band together, what is their name and what kind of music do they play? Also, who's the lead singer, and what instruments do the others play?"

3) After your flist has asked enough questions, round them up and answer them using the 15 characters you selected beforehand, and then post them.

4) Guessing time!



1. Stella Terrano
2. Jill Smith
3. Lucy Burb
4. Ripp Grunt
5. Pascal Curious
6. Tank Grunt
7. Bottom Summerdream
8. Johnny Smith
9. Circe Beaker
10. Buck Grunt
11. Beau Broke
12. Nervous Subject
13. Vidcund Curious
14. Frances J. Worthington III
15. Ophelia Nigmos



Thanks for playing! ^_^

Stock Question Time!

3, 6, 10 and 12 are stranded on a desert island. What absolutely necessary item did each of them bring with them? How do the others view the choices?

6 brought something that would be most useful to use as a tool to build a shelter, etc., which was appreciated by all three of the others, though only 3 made a big deal about it.

10 and 3 both brought a book and a pencil, which didn't surprise either of them or 6.

12 didn't react to anyone's choices, and they were reluctant to ask about 12's unusual item, which they wore, but appeared to serve no purpose.

2, 8, 13 and 15 imbibe of some questionable juice that makes them...do things...they would never, ever normally do. What do they do, do they regret it later or are they secretly pleased?

2 cheats on their partner and regrets it a lot.

8 initiates an elaborate sexual encounter that they know will have many consequences, and wakes up both worried and secretly pleased.

13 gets a makeover and heads out for a night on the town, and wakes up mortified.

15 gets in a fist fight and then hopes that nobody finds out about it. They are a little pleased that they had the nerve, but also ashamed of themselves for being so violent.

9 and 14 are running against each other in an election. What are the key points of their platforms? Of the two of them, who do 1 and 5 vote for, and with what reasoning?
ext_122042: (Default)

[identity profile] strange-tomato.livejournal.com 2010-11-11 02:07 am (UTC)(link)
The main topic of this election is "the alien problem" and how the sim population should approach it.

9 believes that the aliens are essentially not to be trusted, and promotes the rights of sims to live without being snatched from their homes at night.

14 is more cautious about taking sides, and instead focuses on the rights of the hybrid alien/sim citizens and their right to live without discrimination.

5 votes for 14 as the clear choice to protect their own interests. 1 doesn't vote, even though they are interested in the issue.

Yay! Looks fun! So yeah I'm a major lurker on your story but this looks too fun to pass up.
I hope these are all legal.
1. If 8 and 9 met in a dark alley what would ensue?
2. Which of the fifteen would 1 kill? Which would 1 woohoo with? Which would 1 marry?
3. What would 15's reaction be if 13 and 14 had a child together?
4. If 2 was the captain of a soccer team who would they choose of 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7?
5. I like your example question :) So that's my last one except using 10, 11, and 12. Also which one would have the most groupies?
Yay I think i got them all in there :)

(Moved these all to one comment, to keep them visible.)

1. If they met in a dark alley, 8 would be quite wary of 9, but would be careful not to show it. 9 might consider doing something to 8, but would not act unless the circumstances were all under their control. They might greet each other with false friendliness. 8 would be the first to find an excuse to get out of there, and then use it.

2. 1 would kill 6, woohoo with 12, and marry 8, though they would prefer not to marry anyone.

3. 15 would pinch themselves, because they'd think they were having a very unusual dream, indeed.

4. 2 would pick 4, even though they'd know that 6 was a better choice.

5. The band is called Two Blonds and One Non-Blond, and they're some sort of new wave/punk band. 11 is the lead singer. 12 plays the drums and 10 plays that synthesizer thing that came with FreeTime. They suck, but 11 still manages to have some groupies.

8, 3, 7 are the lead casts in a big budget movie that 12 is directing. What kind of movie is it and what are 8, 3 and 7's roles? (bonus question, how does it do in the box office?)
ext_122042: (Default)

[identity profile] strange-tomato.livejournal.com 2010-11-11 02:14 am (UTC)(link)
It's a romantic comedy with a twist. 8 is the main character. 3 is the sim that 8 is in love with. 7 is 8's quirky best friend of the opposite sex (as is 3). In the end, 8 realizes that 7 was "the one" all along.

It does poorly at the box office, causing controversy because of the "races" of the cast. Others blame the director, which is probably a more accurate reason for the flop of the movie.

6 and 7 are toilet papering 13's house, who is out at the movies with 14. What happens when 1 drives by and catches them? What happens when 13 and 14 come back?
ext_122042: (Default)

[identity profile] strange-tomato.livejournal.com 2010-11-11 02:19 am (UTC)(link)
When 1 catches them, they have to explain what they are doing, and why. 1 asks a lot of questions, and 6 is reluctant to talk to them at all, but 7 is friendly and gives good descriptive answers.

When 13 and 14 get back they not amused (13 starts yelling, and 14 just frets and pouts), but they come around when they see who is responsible.

* 13 writes a memoir. What do they title it? Would 3, 4, and 5 read it? What would they think of it?

* 8 and 9 are planning a wedding. What's it like? Do they have a theme? What colors do they choose? Could they even agree on anything?

* 15 has been challenged to a duel. Who of the other fourteen people do they choose to be their second? Why?
ext_122042: (Default)

[identity profile] strange-tomato.livejournal.com 2010-11-11 02:31 am (UTC)(link)
13's memoir is called Many Shades of Green. 3 might pick it up to read if it had an interesting cover. 4 would definitely not read it. Ever. 5 read it numerous times, as they were also acting as a copy editor for 13.

This wedding would be a disaster. They would argue constantly. 9 would think that 8 had bad taste and would insist on spending too much money. 8 would have to be held against their will to be forced to marry 9, and who knows why they'd want to, but 9 would undoubtedly have a good reason that isn't initially obvious. There is no theme, and they choose a colour that goes well with green.

15 chooses 8 as their second, because it is the first person they think of when faced with a challenge, and 8 has proven they are up for the task in the past. 8 would also be quite handy in combat, even if it were something they'd never done before (like fencing).

Which Hogwarts houses would 7, 10, 13, and 15 be sorted into?
ext_122042: (Default)

[identity profile] strange-tomato.livejournal.com 2010-11-11 03:00 am (UTC)(link)
7 and 13 would be sorted into Ravenclaw.

10 would be sorted into Hufflepuff.

The hat might take some time with 15, but they would eventually be directed to Griffindor.

* 7, 11, and 13 are giving lecture. What are their topics? How do they engage their audience? For example, is it a straight lecture, a discussion session? What about group activities?

* 1, 3, and 4 are bored on a Friday night. What do they do? Who might they do it with?

Re: Needs moar info

7 would lead a discussion session on a biology topic. They engage their audience with their warm and confident manner and by asking unexpected questions.

11 is a motivational speaker.

13 would also choose a biology topic, but would give more of a straight lecture.

****

On a Friday night, 1 would be looking to pick up someone to take home with them. 3 might go out with some friends or on a date. 4 would also prefer to spend time with their friends, drinking and having a good time. Sex is always a welcome bonus.

GAH! YOU'RE MAKING MY BRAIN HURT!

The questions that have been asked (and the answers) have been quite entertaining though. However, I'm terrible at guessing games so I'm looking forward to hearing all the answers!

Ok, so I have a few questions now.

What were Four (that # isnt working on my keyboard. :P), 6, and 12's favorite subjects in high school and why?

What is 2, 3, and Fourteen's favorite genre of music?

Is 5 single or not?

I am not that good at guessing, but i want to give it a try, so...

What would happen if 2,4,6 and 12 got stuck in a elevator for 12 hours?
and what would the people that rescued them from said elevator find when the elevator is opened?
ext_122042: (Default)

[identity profile] strange-tomato.livejournal.com 2010-11-11 01:18 pm (UTC)(link)
4 would immediately start cracking jokes to try to break the tension, which would annoy 6, who'd insist that everyone sit still and conserve energy and air. 4 would continue to chat with 2, despite this suggestion, so 6 stews in anger.

As the hours pass, 2 can't hide their worry, but tries to hide it by talking less. 4 takes 2's hand in the dark, without saying anything, and 2 lets them.

12 has said nothing this whole time, which the other three find, well, creepy.

When the doors were opened, the rescuers noted that this group of elevator hostages seemed even more tense than most groups trapped in an elevator.
