1) Who would make a better college professor: 6 or 11? Rienna's an adventurer, but she might be more sympathetic to her students. Alys, the mage, would know more but she's a total bitch. It's a toss-up, but I think it goes to Alys

2) Do you think 2 is hot? How hot? Personally, no; women aren't my thing. On the other hand, Altariel's an elf and has the whole ice queen thing going, which some people seem to find sexy.

3) 12 sends 8 on a mission. What is it, and does it succeed? OK, so Nicolette's about 540 years old. And also she canna die, which works better if you imagine it in a Scottish accent as performed by Christopher Lambert. Thing is, Lauren's not so much with the dying either--it's amazing what happens to Wolverine when you make him female, but "hard to kill" doesn't change. Anyway, Nicolette has a whole lot of money, so if she needs to have something retrieved from somewhere where there are people or beings who'd actually think to try cutting off her head when shooting her didn't work, she might hire out. And since "best there is at what I do" doesn't change either, of course Lauren gets out with whatever it is.

4) What is, or would be, 9's favorite book? Reading being not such a big thing in Star Wars, I have no clue. Likely something totally fluffy and silly to take her mind off the fact that she's working for the Emperor.

5) Would it make more sense for 2 to swear fealty to 6, or the other way around? Neither Altariel nor Rienna would be big on the other; they're too much alike. Given that one has to swear, though, it'd probably be Ri who, after all, has a history of serving under people who are into the big mojo.

6) For some reason, 5 is looking for a room-mate. Should they share a studio apartment with 9, or 10? The concept of Tanith the barbarian archer of the savannah needing a roommate is kinda funny. However, given that it happens she'd probably get on better with Rachel (10); they'd stay the heck out of each others' way. Adatha might be more inclined to try to talk.

7) 2, 7, and 12 have dinner together. Where do they go, and what do they discuss? Altariel, Annis and Nicolette. Well, Annis is the odd person out by virtue of having a life span not measured in centuries. They'd hit somewhere with good, probably exotic (relative to them) food, and talk about how tough it is being a woman in a male-dominated field (that'd be wizardry, martial arts and being Immortal respectively). There would probably be sidelines into the fact that men suck--Altariel's had some bad experiences, Annis had Sol (who went evil) and Nicolette's interacted with Duncan frigging Macleod.

8) 3 challenges 10 to a duel. What happens? Astrid doesn't do duels; she does knives in the ribs from behind. However, if it happened she'd kick Rachel's comsumptive behind, fire-magic or no; being athletic and able to become insubstantial is handy when you're dealing with a desk-jockey mage in poor health.

9) If 1 stole 8's most precious possession, how would they get it back? Lauren would probably manage to track Cordelia down, as I don't think Cordy's got any scent-altering spellware yet. Lauren would then threaten the halfling, and if she managed to shrug off the suggestion, which she likely would, that'd be that.

10) Suggest a title for a story in which 7 and 12 both attain what they most desire. "Reunion"

11) What kind of plot device would you use if you wanted 4 and 1 to work together? Oh, that's easy: there's some information they both need, and they team up to get it. Octavia and Cordelia are even both about the sneaking.

12) If 7 visited you for the weekend, how would you get along? That depends on whether I needed any monster ass kicked. If so, I'd spend most of my time hiding while she did the kicking. If not, we could probably have a decent time just hanging out. Though I suspect I'd get tired of philosophy.

13) If you could command 3 to perform any one task or service for you, what would it be? I dunno, steal me a million dollars? Maybe, ah, reorganize the current administration, since she could get in with no problem.

14) Does anyone on your friends list resemble 11 (either in appearance or personality)? Not really, though she probably looks a bit like me. I don't know anyone who's that combination of stone bitch and absolutely dedicated to a subject.

15) If 2 had to choose sides between 4 and 5, which would it be? If Altariel has to pick Octavia or Tanith, it could go either way, but I think Octavia would win out of elven solidarity and similarity of outlook.

16) What might 10 shout while charging into battle? Rachel doesn't like to charge into anything that might involve her getting hurt, so, um, "This is a bad idea!"

17) If you chose a song to represent 8, which song would you choose? Lauren...not "Veteran of the Psychic Wars", though that's got some resonance. How about "I'm Still Here"?

18) 1, 6, and 12 are having dim sum at a Chinese restaurant. There is only one scallion pancake left, and they all reach for it at the same time. Who gets to eat it? Cordelia and Nicolette would get into a oneupmanship contest; meanwhile Rienna would just take it.

19) What might be a good pick-up line for 2 to use on 10? Altariel's not so much into picking people up. That being said, something along the lines of, "That's a fabulous effect, can you explain how you did it?"

20) What would 5 most likely be arrested for? Assault with intent.

21) What is 6's secret? She's working for the Empire.

22) If 11 and 9 were racing to a destination, who would get there first? Adatha, unless Alys thought to ask for some teleportation help from one of the other mages.

23) If you had to walk home through a bad neighborhood late at night, would you feel safer in the company of 7 or 8? Well, either Annis or Lauren could totally kick the ass of anyone we might run across. I think I'd take Annis on the theory that people aruond her die less often than they do around Lauren/Wolverine.

24) 1 and 9 reluctantly team up to save the world from the threat posed by 4's sinister secret organization. 11 volunteers to help them, but it is later discovered that he/she is actually a spy for 4. Meanwhile, 4 has kidnapped 12 in an attempt to force their surrender. Following the wise advice of 5, they seek out 3, who gives them what they need to complete their quest. What title would you give this fic? Cordelia and Adatha team up against Octavia. Alys is secretly working for Octavia and has kidnapped Lauren (yeah, right). Tanith tells them to look for Astrid. Um...I'm bad at titles.

Well, hell, there went my lunch break.

Um. Sorry? :)
