spoilers: like half the characters on my list are aliens

And now it looks more like I'll get my own computer back sometime early next week. Since I leave town on Wednesday, I am ... now less than serene about this. So fuck this noise, it's time for a meme.

1. Make a list of fifteen characters first, and keep it to yourself for the moment.

2. Ask your flist to post questions in the comments. For example: 'One, nine and fifteen are chosen by a prophecy to save the world from four. Do they succeed?', 'Under what circumstances might five and fourteen fall in love?', 'Which character on the list would you most want on your side in a zombie invasion?'

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

1) It's the end of the world...AGAIN. The Powers That Be have stated that it will take a Five Man Band to save the world, and the members are 2, 4, 5, 11 and 13. Which one is the Hero, the Lancer, the Smart One, the Tough One and the Heart of the Group? And when they end up fighting 8 and all of his/her considerable forces, do they win? Why or why not?

2) 3 and 14--together, they fight crime! But...are they any good at it? What's a typical case like?

3) 12 and 6 are a couple. 1 is their child (adopted or biological, it doesn't matter). How does this family work out?

4) So there's a prophecy. 7 is the champion of ultimate good; 9 is the champion of ultimate evil. Do they fight? Kill each other? Say "screw the prophecy"? Try to find a third option that will allow them and the universe to survive?

5) 15 is being haunted by the ghost of 10. Why? And what does he or she do about the haunting?

a. Tomorrow at noon, everyone but 5 vanishes off the face of the Earth. How long does it take them to figure this out, and what do they do about it?

b. The characters on your list attend the same cheesy high school AU. Discuss.

c. Out of 9 and 10, which would 3 kidnap to their moonbase?

d. What are the three most listened songs on 1's alien iPod?

4 is a private investigator. 7 hires them to find out what 12 is up to.

What is 12 up to? What does 4 do about it? And out of 2, 5, 6, and 14, who is 12's flunky, who's the cop, who's the dame, and who's the hapless patsy set up to take the fall?

7 and 13 are cellmates in prison. How did they get there? And how does the warden, 3, respond when they try to escape?

(I began by spelling out the numbers, but all the prompts were looking like really sketchy multi-era Doctor Who fics so I changed them to numerals.)

1. 7 has amnesia, and is given into 1's care. Does 1 help them to regain their memory, keep them in the dark for their own good, or take shameless advantage of them?

2. 8, 12, and 15 are all undercover at a circus. What roles do they take when performing, and are they working together or against each other?

3. 3, 5, 13, and 14 are on a roadtrip. Where are they going, who's driving, who buys the snacks, who picks the music? And do they arrive at their destination or perish in a fiery auto crash?

10 secretly writes fic about 4, 9, and 15. Who gets paired up? What parts of 10's id are showing through?

8, 13, 2, and 11 are actually the members of the mysterious TORCHWOOD FOUR! What are their respective roles in the fight against (or for, or generally related to) alien incursion? What's the true story behind the mysterious disappearance of TW4?

12 and 6 are in the middle of their marriage vows when 14 dramatically bursts into the room shouting that ze objects! What's going on? How does it get solved?

12 and 9 are set up on a blind date, planned and arranged by 4. What has 4 sent them to do together, how does the date go, and how 12 and 9 feel in 4's direction afterward?

10's life is being turned into a big-budget Broadway musical, to be directed by 7, with 6 in the starring role. Is 10 mortified by this development, or did they write the script? What ~creative differences~ complicate the production? How does the show fare with the critics?

2, 8, and 11 go on a road trip in a car of questionable quality. Where do they go, and do they get there without killing each other?

(a) 1, 2 und 9 fall in love with 6. Who ends with whom?

(b) 3, 5, 8, 11 and 15 are taking part in an intergalaxial version of American Idol. Whom do 12 and 14 ship?

(c) 4, 7 and 13 are a modern version of Robin Hood. However, they try to steal from 6. What happens?

(d) 10 and 11 decide to get married. Suddenly 10's ex-partner 3 turns up. What is the genre? Comedy, drama, crime show, science fiction...

(e) 7, 8, 10 and 13 are in a band. Who does what? And who is the bigger fan? 2, 9 or 14?

I...was going to contribute, but given the number of prompts you already have here, I don't think you need any more. *g*

Wow. Everyone's going for the seriously complicated...well, and the humorously complicated. Feel free to pick your favorite of these rather than trying to answer them all:

I. Of 1, 9, and 15, one is the host/star of a prime time network game show, one is the series producer/showrunner, and one is a secret agent assigned for deity-only-knows what reason to keep an eye on the contestants (theoretically, without letting the show's production team know what's going on). Which is which, what kind of game is it, are some or all of the contestants really Up To Something, and what happens when the agent's cover is blown?

II. 3 is exiled/sentenced by the temporal authorities to live in the American Wild West (circa the 1870s/80s); 5 is the caseworker assigned to make sure s/he stays there. What relationship ensues? Do we get a tender romance, an action/adventure partnership, a battle of deadly enemies, a wacky comedy, or something else entirely?

III. 4 and 8 are engaged in a life-and-death swordfight with each other. What circumstances led to the duel? And how will it end if (a) no one interferes, (b) 9 unexpectedly intervenes, (c) one of them is suddenly Quantum Leapt into by Sam Beckett in mid-battle?

IV. Imagine that 2, 10, and 14 have been transmogrified into Muppets and are part of the Muppet repertory company along with Kermit, Gonzo, Miss Piggy, and so on. What kind of movie ensues when the three are given significant co-starring roles, and how well (or poorly) do Our Heroes deal with living by the rules of Muppet physics?

2 is in a Prisoner's dilemma scenario with 14. How does each of them react and what's the outcome?
