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! ^_^

* 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?

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).

Hmm. I'm thinking 9 is Circe, 8 might be Tank, and 13 could be Johnny? I've never been very good at these; I just like coming up with questions! :')

You have one right! 9 is Circe. This information might help you quite a bit if you read the other questions and answers. ;)

Well then. :3 Knowing 8 is Johnny, 15 sounds a lot more like Ripp, and I'm leaning more towards Lola being 13. Still not quite sure what to make of the others.

This is fun. :D

Nope, 15 is not Ripp. Lola is not 13. Good guesses, though.

Yeah, it's a lot of fun for me, too. ^_^

No, 13 is not Jill either.

Is 5 Pascal, by any chance?

[identity profile] strange-tomato.livejournal.com 2010-11-11 12:57 pm (UTC)(link)
It IS! Good guess. How did you figure it out?

[identity profile] dinuriel.livejournal.com 2010-11-11 06:12 pm (UTC)(link)
Yay! :D

I figured it out from answer to the election question and the answer to will_o_whisper's memoir question. Not only does Pascal have half-alien kids, but I figured he would have been Vidcund's first choice for copy editor too.

This meme is so damn fun! :)

Right on. I thought those two, when taken together, would paint a pretty clear picture, once Vidcund was revealed.

It's a fun meme, for sure. ^_^
