Sometimes it takes me ages to get back to a meme: fannish quizmeme from a while back.

My apologies to [personal profile] facethestrange for not answering sooner!

1 character: Kara Thrace
1. Could you take them in a fight?
Hell to the no! She's a soldier, I am...not. At the very least, Kara would fight dirty.

2. Would you let them cook for you?
Only if I were absolutely desperate. We're both better off if I'm in charge of food.

3. They give you a haircut! Is it any good?
I'm not fussy about haircuts. My haircut on any given day is "tie my hair into a long ponytail, then saw off the ponytail". And then I curl it in an uptwist. So, no, Kara's haircut is probably not 'good' but I'm not fussed about it.

4. What would they get you for your birthday, if anything?
Tickets to a pyramid game, maybe.

5. If they were a YouTuber, what sort of content would they create? Would you be subscribed to them?
I feel like Kara would have all kinds of little things to say about life on Galactica, the things going on around her, and her opinion of Colonial politics. I'd probably be subscribed to her channel, but I wouldn't be a regular watcher - just one of those ones that I check in for updates every now and then.

2 characters: Faith Lehane, Cordelia Chase
1. You have to choose one to erase from their series! Who do you pick?
Faith is probably more 'erasable' because she appears less often, but I like her better than Cordy.

2. Who would you rather run into in a dark alley at night?
Depends. Is Cordy Cordy? Or is she the-mother-of-Jasmine (who is also Jasmine)? Because then I'd take my chances with Faith.

Otherwise, if Cordy is just Cordy, I'd meet Cordy in a dark alleyway and get chewed out for either scaring her half to death or being dressed unfashionably.

3. Who would you save from a burning building? Who would be more likely to save you from a burning building?

I'd try saving either of them from a burning building, but would more likely end up saved by Faith. (Not Works. Dur hur hur.)

4. Who would win in a dance-off?
Probably Faith.

5. They swap bodies for 24 hours! How badly do they mess up (or improve) each other's lives?
Someone must have written a fic for this. It would be hilarious, but also terrifying.


3 characters: Granny Weatherwax, Polly Perks, Sybil Ramkin
1. Who would you rather swap aesthetics/outfits with for a day?
Not Polly. I kinda feel socks would just get in the way of, well, everything. And I'm not sure there's that much difference between Granny and Lady Sybil's clothing - old and practical and well-patched, I imagine.

2. Who do you team up with in a 2v2 volleyball match? Which side wins?
I was going to say Polly, but honestly I think it's safer to be on Granny's side, even if we lose.

3. If each of them got one million dollars, who would waste/spend their money the fastest?
Polly, probably. But mostly because a million is nothing to Lady Sybil, and money isn't particularly relevant to Granny... Honestly, any of these three women would probably easily drop it straight into their pet project (whatever that happened to be at the time).

4. Who would die first in a horror movie? Who would be the survivor?
...that's a really difficult one. I feel like Granny would be the 'die first', but also she would be the survivor at the end: I ATEN'T DEAD.

5. They're all on the run from the law! What crimes did each commit and who is most likely to get caught?
If the law has any sense, then the law will stop chasing any of them IMMEDIATELY. Look, Granny would get caught and then, well, they'd let her go because she's Granny. Polly would get caught and then narrativium would get her out of it (most likely with help from The Squad). And Lady Sybil wouldn't commit a crime in the first place, and if she did, it wouldn't be a crime. I can't explain that any better.

Aw, there's no need to apologize at all, you're never obligated to make a meme post! :) That said, this was a really fun read! :D Also I definitely have dw comments from February I haven't even read yet, lol oops.

"I feel like Kara would have all kinds of little things to say about life on Galactica, the things going on around her, and her opinion of Colonial politics."
You just made me realize that I'd probably be addicted to Kara's youtube channel! Just because there was a time in my life when I would happily watch Katee Sackhoff read a phone book. xD

"Otherwise, if Cordy is just Cordy, I'd meet Cordy in a dark alleyway and get chewed out for either scaring her half to death or being dressed unfashionably."
Hee.

"Someone must have written a fic for this. It would be hilarious, but also terrifying."
I just actually went looking for this fic because OMG. But according to my very quick ao3 search there doesn't seem to be one. D: At least not one actually tagged with "Bodyswap".

"Not Polly. I kinda feel socks would just get in the way of, well, everything."
Bwah.

"I was going to say Polly, but honestly I think it's safer to be on Granny's side, even if we lose."
Ahahah, it's generally always safer to be on Granny's side, and also she can use headology to win (if only she has a reason to care about a volleyball game).

"I feel like Granny would be the 'die first', but also she would be the survivor at the end: I ATEN'T DEAD."
I love this and how it implies that Granny used borrowing to defeat the monster/killer.
