Another Good Fun Game

[dolorous_ett]

Recently returned from the barbaric, lager-drinking South of England, and too knackered to do the travelogue I had been planning, and/or a review of the Unsatisfactory Vampire Novel (aka The Historian by Elizabeth Kostova (sp?)) which I read on the train. 

So, in the meantime, here is a nice meme I gacked from ignipes:

1. Make a list of 15 characters first, and keep it to yourself for the moment. (That way you're not leading the questions asked to fit the characters.)

2. Ask your flist to post questions in the comments. For example: "4, 6, 12 & 15 are starting a band together, what is their name and what kind of music do they play? Also, who's the lead singer, and what instruments do the others play?"

3. After your flist has asked enough questions, round them up and answer them using the 15 characters you selected beforehand, and then post them.

More when I've woken up a bit.

6 challenges 10 to a duel, on account of a secret affair with 3. Who wins, and why? And what does 3 think about all of it.

Crabbe challenges Snape to a duel, on account of a secret affair with Umbridge. Who wins, and why? And what does Umbridge think about all of it?

The seconds are out, they stand facing each other across the carpet/stage thingy, wands out...

Then Snape throws up his hands in disgust - "Take her, idiot boy, if it means so much to you. I am an Anguished Man of Mystery, and domestic ties would only cramp my style... Oh, and you're holding that wand wrong."

He storms out in disgust. Crabbe wins by default. Crabbe is suspended for Conduct Unbecoming in a Student, but Umbridge gives him a job in the ministry as her tea-boy. Poor Crabbe! But for the outcome of the war, things would have gone very badly for him... He was one of the first Slytherins to enlist for front-line combat against the Dark Lord.

Umbridge is secretly very flattered that two men are actually duelling for her affections. However, at the time she confines herself to standing on the sidelines saying "Hem hem! Duelling is not allowed in the corridors!"
