guess that character meme

[sophinisba]

I'm not feeling very well today so I think it's a good day for staying in bed and posting a time-consuming meme. I saw this on the journal of someone I don't know, anneliese.

I've made a list of 10 characters and assigned them all numbers. Ask me questions about them ("Is 3 human?" "Who's smarter, 4 or 5?" "What would 2 and 7 do if they discovered buried treasure?") and I'll answer. Your mission is to discover which character is which.

Hint: They are from ten different fandoms (all of which have been mentioned at some point on this journal) and may include real people.

1. Monica Dawson (Heroes), guessed by gamerchick
2. Sam Winchester (Supernatural), guessed by gamerchick
3. Rose Tyler (Doctor Who), guessed by gamerchick
4. Rose Cotton (LotR), guessed by dreamflower02 (with help from claudia603)
5. Rose Henderson (Lost), guessed by gamerchick
6. Detective Frank Pembleton (Homicide), guessed by claudia603
7. Luna Lovegood (HP), guessed by schemingreader (after gamerchick drew out the clues)
8. Viggo Mortensen (Lotrips), guessed by claudia603
9. Captain Malcolm Reynolds (Firefly), guessed by claudia603
10. Zeke Tyler (The Faculty), guessed by claudia603

I'll fill in the names as people guess them.

Oh, this looks like fun! I may have to do it in my own journal.

Who is the one true love of #5's life?

[sophinisba]

Yes, I'm excited about this meme but a little nervous it'll fall flat, so thank you for joining in so quickly. :)

#5's one true love is someone she met later in life and then married. Circumstances separated them for a little while after that but now they're back together.

(Is that too obvious? I don't know how much I should tell in each clue.)

okay, give a brief dialog if #7 and #10 were in bed together (it doesn't have to be sexual)

[sophinisba]

Ah ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha. Okay, give me a few minutes.

7 and 10

[sophinisba]

7: Wow, it's so big!
10: Well, yeah! What did you expect?
7: I thought a boy who shows off and swaggers as much as you do, and talks all the time about what heroes he and his friends are, must be trying to make up for something – some kind of insecurity, some smallness of character…
10: Nothing to make up for here, baby.
7: Oh! Oh, yes, do that again, please!

Is #2 a character from present-day Earth?

[sophinisba]

Yes!

[sophinisba]

That's a great icon, btw.

4?

[dreamflower]

Not many guesses left for 4. Sam? (Gamgee)

If it is, thank you Claudia! If it's not, I'm blessed if I know!

Re: 4?

[sophinisba]

Sorry, no. #4 is a hobbit but not one of the Travellers.

[gamerchick.livejournal.com]

I couldn't stay away!

Does 3 come from a sci-fi or future setting?

3

[sophinisba]

Welcome back. I gave up on my unsuccessful plan of watching a TV show or taking a nap to make my self feel better and am now ready for some more distraction. I shall go back to your meme too.

Um, about #3, she doesn't come from a sci-fi or future setting but the show puts her in one. Or something.

[honeyandvinegar.livejournal.com]

Hmm! Is #3 a teenager?

[sophinisba]

Yes, gamerchick just figured out that she is Rose from Dr. Who (which is pretty impressive since I don't think gamerchick watches Dr. Who!

[shirebound]

I'm sorry you're not feeling well. :(

What is #1's favorite way to spend time?

1

[sophinisba]

Thank you! It's this thing that's been bothering me on and off for about a week! I thought it was going away this weekend but then today's been pretty ugh. :( At least I'm very lucky that I'm able to stay home and waste time on memes when I feel like it.

I don't know much about #1's free time because in canon she has to work full time and then starts having adventures. I think she likes to watch TV.

[gamerchick.livejournal.com]

Recap for the benefit of all:

1 is female, works full time in canon and then begins adventuring.
6 is male, arrogant and a little insecure.
8 speaks several foreign languages.
10 is male and kind of a showoff, not Dean Winchester or Xander Harris, popular on this journal's flist.

All accurate?

[sophinisba]

Very good, although it makes me think I might have made some mistakes.

I'm not actually certain whether #1's job is full time, but I think so.

Possibly not everyone would agree with me on 6's insecurities. He acts very confident most of the time.

[claudia603.livejournal.com]

Does either #6 or #10 have a Ranger-like job?

[sophinisba]

Yes, #6 is very Ranger-like and #10's job at one time required him to act Ranger-like.

correction

[sophinisba]

Damn, I did it again. What I said here about #10's job? I meant to say that about #8. :/

[claudia603.livejournal.com]

Is #10 Zeke?

[sophinisba]

YES!!

[claudia603.livejournal.com]

Is no. 10 a person of color?

[sophinisba]

No, 10 is Zeke!

[gamerchick.livejournal.com]

I'm operating now under the assumption that 1 is from Heroes, cause she has to be...How old, approximately, is she?

1

[sophinisba]

I'm pretty sure she's a teenager.

[layne67.livejournal.com]

Sounds like fun

Is #8 human?

[sophinisba]

Oh, honey, 8 was the last one and Claudia just guessed it. Yes, it's Viggo. :)
