Meme

List ten fictional characters you'd fool around with, and tag five people to pick up the meme.


1. Kaylee - FireFly
2. Willow (classic or extra-sassy college Willow) - Buffy
3. Mahandra - Wonderfalls (Tracie Thoms rocks, and Mahandra shares Jaye's wit without the, y'know, insanity)
4. Jadzia Dax - Star Trek: DS9
5. Barbara Gordon / Oracle - Birds of Prey
6. Caitlin Fairchild - Gen13
7. Poison Ivy (but only if she promisded not to poison me) - Batman
8. Quistis Trepe - Final Fantasy 8
9. Thesseley - Thesseley: Witch for Hire (She was a bit too bitchy in her appearances in Sandman, frankly, but the character was much fun in her own mini.)
10. The entire staff of Coffee of Doom - Questionable Content (And to forestall the obvious, "What, even Raven?" Yes, I'd hook up with Raven if it meant getting Dora, Faye and Penelope at the same time.)

Let's see, strong-willed nerds, bisexuals, and hotness everywhere. I think my tastes are fairly obvious.


No tagging, thanks. Not my style.

Is it bad that I only know 3 of the above (7, 9, 10)?

Wait, you know Thesseley (an obscure comic book character) and the Coffee of Doom girls (a semi obscure webcomic), but not a major Star Trek character, a major Buffy character, a major Firefly character, or Barbara Gordon? Here's a hint with Barbara - she's Comissioner Gordon's daughter, and was Batgirl before she caught a bullet to the spine.

Sheesh, we need to expose you to a more diverse geeky culture. Starting with Firefly.

Well, I've read The Sandman twice in the last few months, and QC is one of only a couple webcomics I read. And I don't watch any TV... never watched any star trek except for a few random bits and pieces, never watched Buffy at all, and never watched Firefly. Barbara Gordon doesn't ring a bell--I have no recollection of Gordon having a daughter :P And I have no idea what the Oracle-birds of prey thing is about, so that made it even more difficult.

Clearly, I'm not nerdy enough :P

Oracle is her name after she gets shot - she's a parapalegic, so that whole running-over-rooftops thing isn't happening anymore. Since she was a librarian in civilian life, she ended up being the source-of-all-knowledge for the other active heros, hence the name Oracle. Birds of Prey is her book, along with Black Canary, the Huntress, and Zinda of the Blackhawks.

The other notable bit is that, very early in her career as Batgirl, it was established she had a photographic memory. Very useful when you're an information broker.

I only recognize a handful, and most I barely know that I recognize, but for some reason I got to #8 and went, "YES." As in that would so be your answer, and, of the females from that game, YES.

Dude, I would have totally gone with Jaye despite the insanity -- the animals can tell her how to love you better! Plus, you can't not love a Brown grad! :)

I'm so with you on #1 and #2. As for #10, though, Raven isn't the one who raises my eyebrows at your choice -- it's Faye that I question. I mean, she's hot and all, but if there were ever a case of someone who someone you'd be better of friends with than makin' the smoochie-smoochie with, it's Faye! Raven at least would be entertaining and harmless, and I keep having this feeling that she's not really as brainless as she lets on.

Why do you think he married an ex-engineer? :)

As for Faye - the question was who to fool around with, not who to date. And Raven is pretty dim and has acne.
