'You know that I could use somebody, someone like you...'

Snurched from [livejournal.com profile] odakota_rose

1. Leave me a comment saying, 'interview me'.
2. I will respond by asking you five questions. I get to pick the questions.
3. Update your LJ with the answers to the questions. (You must do this, even if it's filtered for my eyes only!)
4. Include this explanation and an offer to interview someone else in the same post.
5. When others comment asking to be interviewed, you will ask them five questions.

[livejournal.com profile] odakota_rose 's questions:
1. Okay, desert island and you can bring three things, what are they?
2. Favorite song ever?
3. If you could write an episode of any one tv show, what would you write and how would it go?
4. Sunny or cloudy days- which do you like better?
5. What's your favorite cliche?



1. Okay, desert island and you can bring three things, what are they?

Well, just because I’m on a desert island, doesn’t mean I have to be without the luxuries of modern life. I’m thinking Abigail Breslin in ‘Nim’s Island’.

So, I want electricity- I don’t know how it worked in the movie, I guess a generator of some sort?- and a laptop. Like, the two essentials. I’d never be bored, I could d/l whatever I wanted to watch. :D

And for my third item…hmm. A lifetime’s supply of chocolate. To go with all the movies I’m watching on my laptop. ^_^

2. Favorite song ever?

This changes all the time. What a haaard question.

I think Iris by the Goo Goo Dolls. The phrase ‘made to be broken’ is so beautiful and so meaningful, it has total relevance to my life. And come on, who doesn’t feel like no one understands and yearning for this one special person who can make everything better?

3. If you could write an episode of any one tv show, what would you write and how would it go?

OMFG, I’d write a script for The Lost World [which you so need to watch, [livejournal.com profile] odakota_rose , just for the SHIP WHICH PWNS ALL] to resolve all the tantalizing season 4 plots that were sadly doomed never to be filmed. One which focuses on Marguerite’s powers, because hello, she’s supposed to be the avatar of this almighty prophetess with the seeds of great destruction or great good and we’ve never seen her use these powers. *pouts*

Shadow of a Dream by Lisa Paris explores one possible aspect of her powers. Actually, I wouldn’t mind seeing pretty much all her fics turned into episodes. Damn, but this fandom has some fine writers.

Anyway, whatever concept I went with, it would definitely be Marguerite-centric. :D

4. Sunny or cloudy days- which do you like better?

Cloudy days, as long as it’s not raining. I’m not a fan of being soaking wet. Sunny days are pretty and all, but I don’t like getting hot and sweating. I'm hard to please! :D

5. What's your favorite cliche?

Curiosity killed the cat. And satisfaction brought it back.

Not many people know the second half of the saying, so it’s always fun seeing them splutter and try to figure out how to respond when I’ve trumped them. ;D It’s up there with ‘great minds think alike and fools never differ’ for entertainment value. Heh.

Name a fandom you know I know and I'll tell you:

1. The first character I first fell in love with
2. The character I never expected to love as much as I do now
3. The character everyone else loves that I don't
4. The character I love that everyone else hates
5. The character I used to love but don't any longer
6. The character I would shag anytime
7. The character I'd want to be like
8. The character I'd slap
9. A pairing that I love
10. A pairing that I despise



Your result for The Golden Compass Daemon Test...

Independent Soul.



You are calm and logical, but not unemotional. You are an introvert, at heart, preferring to read alone than be subjected to the crush and noise of a big party or bar. You have a few friends and family, whose presence you welcome - to a point. Even they can wear on your nerves eventually, and you need to retreat back into your personal space for a while so you can recharge. Your energy comes in bursts, after which you need a long nap or a couple of evenings at home to recuperate.

You are comfortable with yourself, and reasonably confident. You want the friendship and goodwill of others, but you are not willing to sacrifice your principles in order to get it. If your close friends need something that you can provide, however, you will be the first to offer it.

You are a good and sympathetic listener, and are aware of your friend's emotional states. With your very close friends, you will open up, but rarely - you don't like to burden people with your problems. At the same time, though, you are honest and are not willing to alter the truth for the sake of convenience. Among strangers you are reserved, and may resort to making jokes to disguise your true feelings.

While you are not afraid of conflict, you do not seek it, either. When you are hurt or insulted, you feel that you have a choice to make. You can choose to take the up on it and defend yourself, or you can let it pass. Your decision may depend on how well you know the person, how personally you take the insult, or simply what mood you are in that day. Your friends may not always know how you are going to react, for that reason. Whatever you reaction, though, you will be logical, rational and unnervingly accurate: a measured strike.

Your daemon's form would represent your calm, introverted nature, your cool logic, and your impatience with crowds of people. He or she would probably whisper ironic comments in your ear, give logical advice and try to hide his or her soft side from everyone, even you.

Suggested forms:
Peregrine Falcon, Snowy Owl, Snow Leopard, Siberian Tiger, Osprey.

Criminal Minds!

[identity profile] borg-princess.livejournal.com 2009-02-09 12:54 am (UTC)(link)
1. The first character I first fell in love with.

Elle Greenaway. I go into shows looking for my strong female character, and Elle was it.

2. The character I never expected to love as much as I do now.

Emily!

3. The character everyone else loves that I don't.

Haaard. I don't really hate anyone on the show. Except WILL, OMFG, WHO NEEDS TO DIE. But then, for that to be a valid answer to this question, everyone else would need to love him and I'm pretty sure they don't. He's either barely tolerated or outright loathed. As it should be.

4. The character I love that everyone else hates.

Hmm. Kevin? A lot of the M/G shippers hate him for wrecking their ship. But I think he's sweet.

5. The character I used to love but don't any longer.

Elle. After she went mental, I kinda lost respect for her.

6. The character I would shag anytime.

Hee. Hotch!

7. The character I'd want to be like.

Emily, FTW. My hero.

8. The character I'd slap.

Morgan. He gets on my nerves sometimes. He's kinda OTT, the dude needs to chill.

9. A pairing that I love.

Em/Hotch! [I can't abbreviate to H/P, it makes me think of Harry Potter]

10. A pairing that I despise.

JJ/Will, in canon. Because MAJOR UGH.
And hmm, there aren't non-canon pairings I hate. I mean, obviously I don't care for ships that aren't mine, but I don't outright hate any of them. [Unlike in SGA, with Sheyla- *snarls*]

Interview me please.

[identity profile] borg-princess.livejournal.com 2009-02-09 12:41 am (UTC)(link)
Ohhh, coming up with questions is harder than answering!

1. What would be the most important things you'd save if your house was on fire? [apart from yourself!]
2. What was the last thing that made you cry? :[
3. If you could write an episode for Criminal Minds, what would happen? :D
4. What's better, a white lie or the brutal truth? O.o
5. If you had to hear one song on repeat in your head for the rest of your life, what would you choose? :O

[identity profile] odakota-rose.livejournal.com 2009-02-07 10:06 am (UTC)(link)
*g* Ooh, you don't give up with this TLW thing, do you?
I really love your concept of a desert island though, because I could totally live with that.
"Iris" has to be on my top ten list, yes. Definitely.

PS. Thank you for correcting my cliche knowledge :D
I'm gonna have to explain that to people now. ;)

[identity profile] borg-princess.livejournal.com 2009-02-09 12:35 am (UTC)(link)
Are you implying I'm...pushy? Moi? *iz shocked* Okay, look, I don't want to put you off it by constantly bombarding you with commands to watch it, lol. I'll simmer down. Though before I do, I'm curious if you happened to check out the scene I linked you to in this comment (http://borg-princess.livejournal.com/45866.html?thread=209962#t209962).

My desert island rules. Mired in deprivation and misery it is NOT. :D

Have you heard of Lenka? She's my current favorite. But Iris is something that's been with me for going on a decade now, so I had to go with that.

[identity profile] odakota-rose.livejournal.com 2009-02-09 04:48 am (UTC)(link)
*gigglesnort* It was more along the lines of "HA! Somebody who gets the need to share these things" but if you say so :P
I like The Scene, and the other scenes a little too much. That was more of me forgetting to post a reply afterwards. *failz*

Hey, I used to think desert island would be a bad thing, but I could totally work with that one.

*glomps*
DUDE! Lenka's my latest favorite album. I'd heard "The Show" a few times last year and then sometime in December I finally got the album. Win, I tell you. WIN.

[identity profile] borg-princess.livejournal.com 2009-02-09 05:03 am (UTC)(link)
Fellow Lenka fan?! *shrieks incoherently* OMGYAYZ. It's so cool when I'm newly madly in love with someone and can share that glee straightaway! I spent all day yesterday listening to her. It's so rare that I love every single song on an album, and I'm happy bouncing right now. I think, if I had to pick, I'd choose 'don't let me fall' as my favorite. I'm doing my second TLW vid to that. *facepalm* Sooo can't afford to waste my time like that but Lenka has hooked me.

It was more along the lines of "HA! Somebody who gets the need to share these things

But of course! What is life without sharing fandom squee? *puzzledface*

That was more of me forgetting to post a reply afterwards.*failz*

MAJOR FAIL, OMG. I was dying to know your opinion. *frowns firmly* But the news that you liked it? Makes my frown disappear instantly. In fact, it's a smirk, right now. ;P

[identity profile] odakota-rose.livejournal.com 2009-02-09 05:23 am (UTC)(link)
*dancedance* I think "Trouble Is a Friend" is my favorite right now, but that whole album is just ♥ It's on my desert island list. :P
She's just got a pretty pretty voice and every single song is lovely.
Vid, you say? SHINY! I am looking forward to this.

But of course! What is life without sharing fandom squee? *puzzledface*

I haven't exactly figured that out, because such a life has never existed for me and quite frankly, I don't ever want it to...

MAJOR FAIL, OMG. I was dying to know your opinion. *frowns firmly* But the news that you liked it? Makes my frown disappear instantly. In fact, it's a smirk, right now. ;P

Yes, fail. *sadface* I shall owe you... something. K?
I thought it was awesomesauce. I think I have a few other comments hiding in my email that I prolly didn't reply to either. *muses* I shall go fix that.

[identity profile] borg-princess.livejournal.com 2009-02-09 10:44 pm (UTC)(link)
I...don't get your icon. *sadface* What about 1990?!

'The Show' was my first favorite, because it's first on the cd. Then I listened to the album on my mp3 [cutest flashback of Torri going, 'I kill you with my mp3!'] and 'Trouble is a Friend' was my second favorite, as it was next in alphabetical order. But when I heard 'Don't let me fall', I could instantly see Marguerite and Roxton and now that song is my all-consuming love right now. Which is good, because you know, when fanvidding, you gotta have a song that you're not going to hate the million-and-first time you hear it, lol.

Heh, I have a few IOUs from you now. *smirkygrin* Must think what I can collect on them. ^_^

[identity profile] odakota-rose.livejournal.com 2009-02-09 11:27 pm (UTC)(link)
The big breakthrough of Dances With Wolves, lol.
Also, the year I was born. W00T!

[cutest flashback of Torri going, 'I kill you with my mp3!']

O.O I HAVE NEVER SEEN THIS!
*pout*

Which is good, because you know, when fanvidding, you gotta have a song that you're not going to hate the million-and-first time you hear it, lol.

So true. Whenever I make a vid, it has to be a song I would propose my undying love for. Multiple times *nodnod*

Heh, I have a few IOUs from you now. *smirkygrin*

*worried face*
What!? Says who?

[identity profile] borg-princess.livejournal.com 2009-02-10 12:16 am (UTC)(link)
DWW. Of course. *headdesks* And ZOMG. I just realized how young you are. O.o I knew it before, but I forgot. Weird.

Oh, sorry about getting you all excited, that was actually from the audio commentary for TLG, like, the one ep she did commentary for. *pouts* I don't get why she didn't do more, I like hearing her, damn it. The dude was getting mixed up with P90s and MP3s, and she was giggling and cute. And he kept talking over her. *snarls*

What!? Says who?

Says you! And because I'm not AT ALL compulsive about this, I hunted it down (http://odakota-rose.livejournal.com/243626.html?thread=2997674#t2997674). Last five words of your comment. *smugface*

[identity profile] odakota-rose.livejournal.com 2009-02-10 02:55 am (UTC)(link)
*squishes* Yeah, and you're such an old maid with your twenty-something self? :P

Arrrgh. I want to buy the DVDs, but I download so much that I can't bring myself to do it. But I still haven't seen that commentary uploaded anywhere.
Torri!giggling is totally worth it though XD

Says you! And because I'm not AT ALL compulsive about this, I hunted it down. Last five words of your comment. *smugface*
