While poking around my harddrive, I found some orphaned answers from, I assume, one of the character question memes going around back when.
They were also unencumbered by notes on who gave me the questions. But, uh, Thanks! It looks like I had fun!
Alan Scott, Amanda Waller, and Cissie King-Jones are sharing an apartment, but one of them has to pretend he or she is gay to do it, because of Barbara Gordon, their nosy downstairs neighbor. Who pretends they're gay? Why does this work or not work? Who ends up dating whom?
Poor Cissie. Poor, poor Cissie. Amanda will encourage her more aggressive tendencies, and Alan will be disapproving and give her Motivational Lectures and neglect to make sure she's done her homework.
I think people keep mistaking Amanda and Alan for a couple, so she starts a rumour that he's gay. In response, Alan glowers a lot and so Amanda gets to practise her evil grinning. Cissie gets to practise having even more parental-style issues.
And Babs... spends a lot of time giggling over her monitors.
Kara, Majestros, and House are sharing an apartment, but one of them has to pretend he or she is gay to do it, because of Lyle Norg, their nosy downstairs neighbor. Who pretends they're gay? Why does this work or not work? Who ends up dating whom?
House pretends he’s gay, but just because he thinks it’d be amusing. Of course, this leads to House and *Lyle* not so much dating as having a bunch of sex. (Lyle... has a type. Ask fandom.) Whenever they're in public together, House makes indiscreet comments and Lyle looks like he wants to die.
As for the others... Majestros has no interest in the whole romance thing, but I suspect Kara would be interested in *him*. They do have a lot in common, and not just the worry of breaking more fragile partners in half. I envision her following him around like a big puppy and plotting, much like if silver age Lois knew how to produce sex pollen or her own robots.
Also, I'm still not over that the meme picked *Babs* and *Lyle* as the noisy downstairs neighbours. It *knows stuff*.
Vril II wakes up in Lois's body, and vice versa. What ensues?
Wackiness! And an expose’ on extraterrestrial police brutality.
Unfortunately, they’ve both been part of the DCU for long enough to take it more or less in stride, so we don’t get the short comedy of errors upon waking that is often the best part of these things.
Lois: *wakes up*
Lois: My keen reporter skillz tell me something is wrong... but what!
Vril: *wakes up*
Vril: WTF! I slept with Superman! This was not part of my master plan!
Vril: ...ew. Cuddles.
Mystique wakes up in Grace's body, and vice versa. What ensues?
Hot sex, of course! And Grace would have little control over the powers at first, so we’d see *exactly* what was going through her mind. Flashes of Roy, Dick, Anissa and, I dunno, Batman... and a whole *lot* of Grace on Grace. Later, Grace would say something about not wanting to trade back, and Mystique would smile thinly and really *not* appreciate the joke.
Why are Vril II, Babs and Dick afraid of Amanda?
It’s okay. Amanda is *used* to getting that reaction by now. I’m thinking there was obviously a spontaneous, second generation game of Batman vs Brainiac – WHO WILL WIN? And the answer, we learn, is Amanda Waller. Duh.
Why are Mystique, Lyle and Erik afraid of Majestros?
The insane amount of power, I should think. Erik, especially comics’ Erik, might be able to hold his own against Clark for a few seconds, but this is just because Clark is a nice guy like that. Majestros would just wipe him out.
And Majestros is clever enough to defeat the Lyle and Mystique dream team, although it would be close. They are too dependant on sneakiness!
Should Cuddy receive therapy from Kara or Hadrian?
Ahaha! I’m thinking not so much. Anyway, it'd quickly degrade from the original purpose. Hadrian would end up talking at her about profits and the running of a hospital like a business and the responsibility of those in power to the future of the world and, while Cuddy might have been originally interested, her brain would slowly shut down. Possibly she'd send him off to talk to House, if feeling mean. And Kara...
Cuddy: I'm not going to continue this conversation until you put on some clothes.
Kara: Like you should talk.
Should Secret receive therapy from Alan or Grace?
Actually, that might not be a bad idea. Grace would be a terrible role model, but the moral would be, "The world fucks you over, so you move on and don't let it define you and don't let it happen again." Alan would pretend that not actually having a body isn't a terribly traumatic state of affairs, and his powerset isn't *entirely* irrelevant.
Babs, Alan, Grace, a Spankbot, and Kara crash land with no food. Which one of them gets eaten? Do all the others actually participate in this?
Alan gets eaten. After several dozen failed attempts of his to create magical chicken, Babs recommends it on the logic that it's the most convincing fake protein they have around, and also she's hungry. So they take apart the spankbot for surgical parts and excise a muscle or two, and Grace complains a lot but afterwards admits it tasted pretty good.
Alan doesn't take the compliment very well at all.
Lyle, Kara, Hadrian, Peej, and Aziraphale crash land with no food. Which one of them gets eaten? Do all the others actually participate in this?
Oh man, poor Lyle. Considering that he managed to strand himself among four people he has no chance whatsoever of hiding from, it's really lucky that none of the others actually has to eat. Er. At least. I'm pretty sure. I wouldn't be surprised if occasionally Aziraphale shoots wistful looks in his direction.
