oanjaGoing to Helsinki tomorrow! Whee travel, also I get to stay in a hotel and my employer will pay the bill. :D
1. Name one of your favourite characters:
Hawke from Dragon Age II
2. Name one of your favourite villains:
Does Loki count? I don't generally like villains, I'm more inclined to like antagonists who eventually become allies
3 and 4 One actor/actress that you look up to and why:
Nobody really. I don't really look up to celebrities, you never know what they are really like. But Emma Thompson seems nice and Lucy Liu
5. Favourite episode from any show you watch? (Or just an episode you love):
I feel like it could be a Buffy or an Angel episode maybe, or SGA episode
6. Favourite show and why?
If it has to be a current show then maybe Magicians
7. If you could live in any fictional universe which one would you live in?
These are always tricky, because can you be one of the "special" people or not. Because a lot of fictional universes suck for normal people. But if I could be included in the special people then Harry Potter maybe or Star Trek, or Temeraire (but would having a dragon be enough to get me to live in the 1800's? Maybe not) I need health care and indoor plumbing
8. Name 3 OTPs:
Kirk/Spock
McKay/Sheppard
and maybe like Derek/Stiles (if we go by which pairings I've read the most fic for and what I still read fic for) but if it doesn't have to be related to fic then Hawke/Anders
9. One character you have a crush on:
Kassandra :D
10. One of your favourite fandoms to be in and why?
Weird question. All fandoms are good to be in, as long as you curate your experience. But teen wolf fandom is the last big slash fandom I was in and at its hay day it was great. also Nu!Trek back in 2009
11. Describe (insert show here) in three words.
Magicians: Magic, trauma, millenials
12. Favourite book:
Just one?!?! Impossible to pick
13. One band that you love?
I don't really love any bands anymore, closest thing is Fall Out Boy
14. Favourite cast:
I don't really follow any of this stuff, but from the little I've seen on tumblr the Magicians cast seems to get along. And if we go old school then the Lord of the Rings movies cast
15. If you were a fictional character in (insert universe here) what would you probably be doing and what life do you think you would have?
I guess I'll go back to the previous question and pick Potterverse. I think magical historian would be cool
16. Who do you think is a misunderstood character?
By main street media: Kirk
by fandom: Draco Malfoy (unpopular opinion, fuck that guy)
17. Which character do you wish you were siblings/best friends/dating with?
I've never thought about this, I don't self insert into fictional universes at all... uh, I guess like... uh, I think a lot of main characters are kind of insufferable if you had to spend real time with them??? I guess it would be super cool to be friends with like Temeraire or some other dragon from the temeraire books.
18. Which Hogwarts house are you in?
Ravenclaw (I've accepted my fate :D)
19. What are three things you've learned from one of the shows you watch?
1. I've learned some basics about what makes houses valuable from different reality shows
(I'm guessing you're supposed to pick fictional shows, I just wanted to put some other documentaries here...)
2. I guess I've learned stuff about like US culture from a lot of shows
3. and it seems I read this wrong and you were supposed to just pick one show... Scrapping this whole thing, I have no idea if I've ever really learned anything useful from a fictional show I've watched
20. If you could be a writer for any show you wish, how might you develop the plot/characters?
Make more characters queer, no matter what the show is
21. What's one of your favourite quotes from a show you watch?
I don't remember quotes
22. Favourite type of AU?
Something long and plotty, but not totally removed from canon. If I had to pick one trope then like time travel/time loop/parallel universes colliding
23. Write a brief headcanon for one of your OTPs:
This will be super short one for Teen wolf Derek/Stiles: Derek is a bottom
24. What's one show you don't watch but you're still in the fandom?
Teen Wolf, I quit after season 4(?)
25. Why do you love the shows you watch/books you read/fandoms you're in?
There needs to be at least one character I really like, or the premise of the show has to really grab me. When it comes to books, it has to have an interesting magic system, or world, as I mostly read fantasy.
