Have you ever read a 6 [Jamie] and 11 [S. C. Ruffey] fic?

No. You'd be amazed how few people ship an 18th-century Scotsman and a sentient evil railway wagon.

Do you think 4 [Dalek Oswin] is hot?

Her mental image of herself is, yes. In reality she's probably a mutilated head in a Dalek travel machine, surrounded by other organs yanked out of her body... significantly less fanciable.

What would happen if 12 [Lucie] got 8 [Trigger] pregnant?

Given that they're both human females with (AFAIK) standard equipment, it could only get as far as pregnancy if they'd planned it out in advance and probably obtained the services of either Federation science or the Old Galactics. So I'm sure they'd have worked everything out carefully, right down to the shared parental leave.

Of course, all the planning would then get torn up when they were dragged away to fight alien invaders or treacherous cyborgs or evil sentient plants, but that's par for the course whether you live in the Whoniverse or the Federation.

Can you rec any fics about 9 [Kitty]?

No. I've read a few, but none that stuck in the memory.

Would 2 [GSV Sleeper Service] and 6 [Jamie] make a good couple?

The Sleeper Service certainly used to have relationships with its passengers at one time (using robot avatars) so, um, maybe?

Would 5 [Willium] and 9 [Kitty]?

This sentence no verb.

Would 5 [Willium] and 10 [Lord Comstock]?

Nor this.

(Assuming the meme author meant to imply 'make a good couple?', no, neither would, since Willium is an obstructive old nuisance who'd infuriate any hypothetical partner by telling them they couldn't park that there, mate.)

Make up a summary for a 3[Hordriss]/10[Lord Comstock] fic.

That pairing's not going to happen without some pretty hefty magic. So I'm guessing that Sidriss gets her latest love potion really, really, really wrong. And for the events that follow, I think I shall have to rely on Messrs Mills, Boon and JavaScript.

184) His Black Sheep Bride by Anna DePalo

Lord Comstock never let anyone stand in the way of building his media empire. If he had to marry Hordriss to close a merger with his daughter, so be it. And though they got along like oil and water, Hordriss had his own desperate reasons for signing on to this sham marriage. But when Sidriss upped the ante, demanding that a child come of the union, Comstock began to see his betrothed in a whole new light!

Is there any such thing as 1 [Rani] / 8 [Trigger] fluff?

No, but there's no reason why there shouldn't be, if someone was minded to. Just because every time we see Trigger she's a thoroughgoing action girl, she's probably capable of a quieter moment... right?

Suggest a title for a 7 [The Middleman]/12 [Lucie] hurt/comfort fic.

This is reasonably easy, because Middleman titles have a certain form. I'd say something like The Contractor Calamity Condition. (Also, my new headcanon: Lucie and Wendy Watson meet once a month or so in the Round, to share a sandwich and swap stories about solving exotic problems.)

What kind of plot device would you use if you wanted Four [Dalek Oswin] to deflower One [Rani]?

A plunger. I'm sorry. OK, this is obviously an AU where Amy and Rory are inaccessible when Asylum of the Daleks rolls around, and instead the Doctor's companions are Clyde and Rani. Rani is the one who gets separated from the Doctor, and manages to free Oswin before the Doctor shows up. Oswin becomes a companion, develops a crush on Rani, and they agree to experiment.

Does anyone on your flist read Seven [Middleman] slash?

I have no idea. If they do, they certainly don't mention it.

Does anyone on your flist read Three [Hordriss] het?

I don't know if there even is such a thing. I mean, he's got a daughter, and presumably he acquired her in the normal way, so maybe there's a fic in there somewhere. Young☛Hordriss — now, there's a thought...

Does anyone on your flist write or draw Eleven [S. C. Ruffey]?

Not to my knowledge. See earlier remarks about sentient evil railway wagons.

What might Ten [Lord Comstock] scream at a moment of great passion?

I think the sort of passion that Comstock would be most familiar with is rage. In which case, most likely "You're sacked!".

If you wrote a song-fic about Eight [Trigger], which song would you choose?

I don't write song-fics, and offhand can't really think of a song that would suit her terribly well.

If you wrote a One [Rani] / Six [Jamie] / Twelve [Lucie] fic, what would the warnings be?

As a rule, the only warnings my fic attracts are for major character death, and I don't think that would apply in this case. So warning-free sexytimes (or, at least, warning-free fades to black) would be on the way.

What might be a good pick up line for Two [Sleeper Service] to use on Ten [Comstock]?

"Would you like to come up and see my battle tableaux?"

What was the last time you read fic about Five [Willium]?

I don't think I have ever read fic about Willium.

What is Six's [Jamie's] super-sekrit kink?

I should think, if he didn't previously have a preference for pretty brunettes getting tied up, he might well have one by now.

Would Eleven [S. C. Ruffey] shag Nine [Kitty]? Drunk or sober?

Unlikely; he doesn't have the equipment. He might well try to run her over, given the chance.

If Three [Hordriss] and Seven [The Middleman] get together, who tops?

It never gets that far, because the Middleman is called away to a crisis before they even manage a kiss. Every single time.

How would you feel if Seven [The Middleman] / Eight [Trigger] was canon?

I'd quite like to see that. Though it couldn't be a lasting relationship; apart from anything else, Trigger's name isn't alliterative enough.
