chaosvizier's questions three five:
1. Fire strikes! What single possession would you try to save? (assume that living things can get their asses out on their own)
My diary. The stuff that's here has made the suitcase-cut twice, so is pretty replaceable.
Although if you say, "assume that living things can get their asses out on their own"... *eyes enormous one-year-old fern* I might just let everything hang and run away screaming from the sentient and mobile plant.
2. Fantasy fight club! What fictional character (from any medium) would you like to beat up if you could?
Mohinder. While I can't guarantee he'll know how to use a microscope by the time I'm through with him (much less the basics of molecular genetics), he'll certainly know where I think a microscope should go.
3. What's your favorite dessert?
Unlike Highlander, there can indeed be more than one. I'm coming up with Dame Blanche and Tiramisu as top ones.
4. What's your favorite memory from school?
I rarely think about that time, mainly 'cause it's a lot of work sorting though three different high school's work of memories. That's like three different lives!
But my first thought is our little trope chatting away during lunch hour in the basement lockers, making inside jokes and asking, lewdly, who's like to finger the Dunkaroos.
5. Ninjas, pirates, zombies, robots, or monkeys: which one reigns supreme?
Velociraptors. But they'd eat the ninjas last.

If you happen to be working on some creative writing project, fanfiction or NaNoWriMo or what have you, post exactlyone sentenceseveral lines from each of your current work(s) in progress in your journal. It should probably be your favourite or most intriguingsentenceseveral lines so far, but what you choose is entirely your discretion. Mention the title (and genre) if you like, but don't mention anything else -- this is merely to whet the general appetite for your forthcoming work(s).
Lost: The Balloonist's Wife (Last writing date: August 2008)
Laughing Bes. Probably not named after the god, mused Richard – what would a couple from Minnesota know about Ancient Egyptian theology – but it still brought chills down his spine. There was a sort of perverse irony to the island’s whims. Pinning down a hot air balloon named after the protector of mothers and children, of homes, seemed just the sort of coincidence it was given to.
Original: Heroes Manual (Last writing date:
The Goat Master and his sock-carrying servant walked by without a word. The man called Hero pocketed the keys he'd found behind the counter along with a jar of pickles. The woman patted him gently on the head as she passed. The boy just shuddered and watched them go up the stairs in silent terror.
