♥ Happy birthday, [livejournal.com profile] elsane, and [livejournal.com profile] madzilla for tomorrow! ♥


Hope both of you wonderful people have excellent days.

Also, I realise now I have yet to answer the questions some of you posed in this meme here.



From [livejournal.com profile] lorannah:

1. [Jack Harkness] has to buy [Dean Winchester] a present, what does he get?

Hee! Well, undoubtedly there are any number of fabulous gifts that Jack's been able to get his hands on over this year, and considering that Dean really is exceptionally pretty he started off with a number of ideas. However, there is a small matter of the other Winchester brother, who looks like he could kick Jack's ass in a fight, not to mention the rumours flying around the place that he might be the Antichrist incarnate. All in all then, probably best not to risk it, so Jack ended up settling for a really big gun, capable of eliminating all kinds of devils and creatures and making the holder looking several kinds of awesome in the meantime. Dean was pleased.

2. What Hogwarts house would [Crowley] be sorted into?

I do believe my very favourite demon is a particularly excellent Slytherin and Ravenclaw. He is not especially brave, nor loyal, nor ambitious - he enjoys the status quo and actively works to disobey the Lords of Hell and prevent the Apocalypse from coming about because he likes things the way they are. He's very clever and quick-witted, and adapts to the changing world as it rolls through the millennia, and has an excellent sense of self-preservation. I'd like to tip the balance over into Ravenclaw, but well, he did start off on this world as a snake, so maybe that seals him as a slightly atypical Slytherin instead.

3. What is [Ianto's] favourite Disney movie?

Ahahaha, an excellent question. I'll open this up to suggestions as well, but I will say the following: he gets a lump in his throat without fail in 'that scene' with Dumbo's mother, and that out of the ones released while he was growing up 'Beauty and the Beast' was most definitely his favourite, what with the whole household coming to life to offer immaculate waiting service and all.

From [livejournal.com profile] liseuse:

4. [Lily] and [Toshiko] are somehow left unable to speak, what medium do they choose to express their relationship?

Tosh, naturally, turns to technology and gets a portable messaging system up and running in no time at all, which Lily finds most impressive. Lily, meanwhile, suspects jinxing afoot, probably courtesy of that wretched Potter boy & gang, and be it that or some sort of alien invasion, their combined awesome would ensure they solved it in record time. *nod*

From [livejournal.com profile] multiclassgeek:

5. [Luna], [The Doctor] & [Martha] have to save the world from an onslaught of Demon-Posessed Mudkip. How do they do it?

Well, the Doctor and Martha are of course old hands at this saving the world malarkey by this stage, so even though they're a bit nonplussed at a Pokemon threatening to destroy the world, they're quickly at the ready with reversing polarity flows and such coming out the ying yang. Miss Lovegood, however, presents rather a problem, as she is overjoyed to discover the long lost mudkip tribe and insists on attempting to befriend the creature in the midst of his destruction. Bemused and more than a little concerned the Doctor has no choice but to let her, and in the end Luna manages to befuddle the creature so much that it implodes in on itself. Which, she explains serenely as she returns to the others, was the plan all along.

6. [Kaylee], [Jack] and [Toshiko] decide to participate in an Anonymous Protest in Central London. Who has the megaphone, who hands out the flyers, and who holds the sign? And who kicks off the Rickrolling?

Naturally enough, this is all Jack's idea, and he happily takes the megaphone while Tosh stands resignedly beside him with her banner, whiling away the time by plotting imaginative revenges on him for when they finally get out of this rigmarole. Kaylee, meanwhile, is quite happily wandering the streets and talking to people and making a remarkable number of converts to the cause.

Jack initially has no idea what rick-rolling is, and Tosh promises to give him a full explanation when they return to the Hub, complete with an illustrated demonstration, but when it starts up he laughs and laughs and makes a mental note of the whole enterprise for future use in the further torment of his team. Tosh begins to seriously contemplate making a break for freedom.

Love that all of my favorite fandoms are in your meme! And woot for Ianto and Beauty and Beast!

LOL!

I can't tell you how happy you just made me - via your answers - Ianto just officially passed the boyfriend test. This being a test one of male friends created to test out potential boyfriends by making them watch Dumbo purely because when he watched it with his last girlfriend he cried at that scene - and so has been trying to convince everyone this is the sign of a perfect man. Of course if Ianto has the same reaction - it must be true. :D

Plus, that's the one question I really wanted Ianto to answer - go me! Another point in favour of my mum's crackpot theory that I'm pyschic.

As for Crowley - well that was hardly difficult enough - but yep, he's a rather textbook Slytherclaw, isn't he? And although I'm only halfway through the first season of Supernatural - the answer to no. 1 - is making me crave a Torchwood/Supernatural crossover. XD

Also - the other answers are love.

Mum's had the pyschic theory since I passed a Paul McKenna challenge on the TV - I'm less convinced as one of the first times she mentioned it I promptly stepped out in front of a car - if I do have pyschic powers then they clearly are of the useless sort (rather than the life saving).

With SPN - I watched the first 6 or so episodes before Christmas - was enjoying it, but have never got back round to watching the rest - Fail. I will get back to it sometime though.

Alas - I am so thoroughly spoiled for the finale that it would definitely be construed as cheating.

Oohh... I definitely will - just need to get this blasted dissertation finished (two weeks, meep)

Just accidently ranted on torch_wood - whups, try to avoid that.

Thank you very much! :D

I love the idea of no. 6 happening. XD

Thank you! ♥

Crowley is definitely Slytherin. (:

It is, thanks -- things are going well, but it's a very busy time at work, so I've not had much time to play around on the Internet in a while. I miss you guys!

oh, definitely! Though I like them languidly sardonic as well. :D

5. [Luna], [The Doctor] & [Martha] have to save the world from an onslaught of Demon-Posessed Mudkip. How do they do it?

Your description is pretty much the most awesome thing ever. And, weirdly enough, I can't help but think that Martha and Luna would end up rather good friends. :D

I believe Jack could kick Sam Winchester's ass without much trouble. ;)

I totally thought Dumbo when I read that question! I think Ianto loves Lion King as well though, and totally sings along.

And you just know that they throw popcorn around, and Jack and Ianto are snuggling together in a really unsubtle way. WRITE ME THIS! ;)

Mwahahahaha. Mine is an evil laugh! What's your degree in? Any way to work in a Torchwood slash angle? ;)

Um, that icon is from episode, um, Meat? Maybe? Not sure. This show is taking over my brain at the moment. I've had to do an icon culling just to get more TW ones. You'd think you really wouldn't need a trillion different icons of suit wearing Ianto, but you'd be wrong.
