The Interview Meme!
1. Leave me a comment saying, "Interview me."
2. I will respond by asking you five questions. I get to pick the questions.
3. You will update your LJ with the answers to the questions.
4. You will 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.
For my answers, click the cut....if you dare!
1. Who's hotter, Harry or Draco? Why?
Woman, you asked a tough question!!!!! They're both hot. But I think your Draco is pretty damn hot. I would go with him because he's the type of person that once he falls in love, he'll plot all sorts of sneaky ways to keep you in love with him. He'll make sure the fire will not go out...and if it does, he'll never let you know it...until you royally piss him off.
2. Who would you rather date, and why?
I would rather date Harry. I have a thing for heros. I've always loved them. Harry will love you madly if you're "THE ONE". He's sweet and caring and a 'typical' male. To me, he's more accessible than Draco.
3. What's your favourite fanfic ever, and why?
Oh my god...there's just way tooo damn many. I just list a few...there's this story by lady in the SailorMoon fandom that I ADORED. printed it out and have it somewhere in my room. I'll correct the title later...but damn, I love that story. Balance by SailorMac in the Hikaru no Go fandom, anything by you (
silentauror,
maxine_chan, umm...A Thousand Beautiful Words by Dionne Fion (that killed me. i loved it so!), Gold-Tinted Spectacles by
beren_writes, Unthinkable Thoughts by Aiden Lynch, Wicked/A Consort's Loyalty by desolate3, Per Solum Lacuna: By Words Alone by wintermoon3 and azhure1, and so many others i can't name off the top of my head in the Harry Potter Fandom. Let's see...Flowers for Iruka-sensei by SirenM, Flower of Konoha by Princess-Tsunade, Side Effects by
chibirisuchan (actually everything by her i LOVE, and Naruto no Hohoemi by Nazo in the Naruto fandom. Tenipuri Phone Messages and Deep Snow by yukuro in the Prince of Tennis fandom.
gah...there's so many...but those are some of my top picks in some of my favorite fandoms. I also read in the GTO:Great Teacher Onizuka, Weiss Kruess, Fruits Basket, Flame of Recca, and s-CRY-ed fandoms as well. *whew* a lot. I know. I'm a nerd.
4. Who's your favourite non-fanfic author, and why?
Again...i don't have a particular favorite but here are some...Anne McCaffrey, David Eddings, Robert E. Feist, Julia Quinn, R.A. Salvatore, C.S. Lewis, and Mary Stewart (I love her King Arthur series!). ^__^;;
5. What's your favourite thing to drink?
Currently, it's TEA. Any type of tea will do for me. At any time of day.
and now for
closet_bound's interview!
1. have you started working on that sequel yet? huh? (i promised to bug you, and it occurred to me that i have been lax in this. i'll ask again tomorrow...if i remember:)
umm...I'm working on it. Thinking about it, actually. I had written some and then scrapped it because I didn't like it. So, yah. Keep bugging me about it. I'll finish it eventually.....
1. what is your favorite thing about living where you do?
I love the weather. The sunny skies and just rain. There's no heavy thunderstorms or heavy snowfalls here. so pretty. I love how everything I want is within 2 hour drive: SF, Napa, hiking, clubbing, yummy restaurants, my friends, etc.
2. what would be your reaction if JKR killed draco? would you still ship H/D?
noooooooooooooooooo! I'll bawl my eyes out. I love Draco! I would still ship H/D, no matter what! my ship won't sink!!!!!!!!!!
3. who is your favorite adult in harry potter? why?
Remus Lupin is my favorite adult. Fascinating chap. All the things he's struggled with (prejudice, being a werewolf, loss of his best friends,etc) and yet, he's still a very kind person. he hasn't gone insane or mental or to the dark side.
4. name three things you would like to do but haven't. why would you like to do them? why haven't you?
1. a tattoo. because it's so rebellious and i've always been a good child. i wouldn't do it because i'm terrified of needles and i abhor pain. it was painful enough getting a piercing. i don't think i can endure that much pain.
2. travel around to exotic places. because i love new things and new sights. can't because i'm too poor.
3. mayyyyyyybe get married. it used to be a dream and now the parents are bugging me about it. they want grandbabies. i'm commitment-phobic. =-P
5. what is the strangest dream you've had that you can remember?
recently had a dream i was sleeping on a plane to London. without my passport. and without contacting anyone. I just up and left. and had the strangest conversation with someone on the plane. very strange.
wheeeeeeeeeeeeee! and that's it folks! put ur name down and I'll see if I can some good questions!
ETA: OMG. i was halfway through
closet_bound's questions and i accidently clicked it shut!!! *cries* must redoooooooo!

Date: 2005-04-26 09:26 pm (UTC)i'm a huge fan of "if you are prepared" by snaples. it was the first snarry i read that i believed and the one that caused me to search out more. i also loved "beautiful world" by cinnamon. it was so increadibly beautiful and heartbreaking. "friend like me" by ladyvader makes the list. i loved the idea that draco would have thought all of that out and come to the conclution that he did. there was something about the strength shown out of fear of weakness that was facinating. "dancing queen" by maya cracked me up. "lights out" by marks was increadible. i loved the mind game, and the repetition worked really well. i loved "thousand" by bec. it took the "we're about to die, let's shag" cliche and made it fresh. "the chosen" by allecto was increadible. i was facinated by the pairing and impressed when she made it work. "change your taste in men" by judyhazeleyes was wonderful. i liked the way it delt with denial. it felt realistic. "sundress" by rhoddlet was also very good. i loved the way she wrote desire and cunning and the willingness to take what you want even when it isn't really what you want. "the smallest stars" by lostgrl was intriging. "never having to say he's sorry" by marks was amazing. it's a drabble, but...wow. *grins sheepishly* i should probably stop now:)
2. Please explain "closet" portion of your name. ^__^ Curious minds want to know.
it has two meanings. i'm a lesbian, and i'm married to a man. because he's one of my best friends, i have a hard time with the idea of leaving and hurting him. the other has to do with the tendency most of us, myself included, have to hide the fact that we read and write slash. (i used the answer i gave
3. What's the one place you would travel to and why?
wow...only one? i'm going to pick the US choice because i don't think i could narrow it down to one if i stepped out into the rest of the world. i want to go to new york very very badly. i'd like to live there. new york has broadway, and that would be enough for me, but there are so many other things there worth seeing or experiencing. i also like the idea of living somewhere where no one knows who i am. :)
4. If you can exist in any story-verse (or time period), which would it be and why?
hmm...that's a difficult one. i would love to live in sports night if it meant i got to work on the show:) if we're talking about the world in general though, i think i would pick harry potter. i'm enamored with the idea of magic:)
5. What are three things that you would love to do again if given the chance, time, and money?
i would love to sing with a jazz band again. that was an increadible experience. i'd also like to get onstage again. all i've done for the last couple of years is direct. my third is to return to washington dc. when i went in high school, i ended up visiting everything with a group of people who only wanted to see the gift shop. i'd like the chance to see everything.

Date: 2005-04-26 09:36 pm (UTC)as for question 2. if you want to elaborate, feel free....i'm a bit curious about it. but it if makes you feel uncomfortable, then don't worry about it. it's just me being curious. =-P
now i must search out your fics. all mine tend to be more on the fluffy, light-hearted side. or have happy endings (which i adore).

Date: 2005-04-27 10:39 pm (UTC)Ohh this is easy. I've been saving up for it xD Definatly a flat. One and a half level sort of thing. Hhigh cealinng, huge full wall windows, black leather couches, white, black, metalic furniture, very new, very sleek, lots of glass, lots of white surfaces, and a maid xD Definalty in a trendy neighbourhood. Seashore maybe, with a view. I'm actually quite content living in Vancouver, so maybe there.
2. of muses and mutterings...If you were a muse inside JKR's head, which character would you encourage her to kill off in the Order of the Phoenix? What would be the reasons behind killing that character? Which Death Eater (or not) would be the culprit behind the death?
*cough* if I was in her head, I wouldn't bother with killing anyone off. Really. I think we both know what I'd be whispering day and night. But, if killing someone was a choise. I think Ginny. Har har har. It's not like I hate her. But she is important enough in the plot to be noticible, and then Harry by caps!Harry and have anger management with Draco.. and then other things.. but I am getting offtrack again!
3. Titillate me with a tale of your most favorite fantasy. What/whom do you fantasize when feeling horny and in need of a good wank a bit naughty and do be a dear, and include any/all kinks involved. *waggles eyebrows*
I am an involved woman! xD but really, omg, public sex is a BIG kink, changing room, elevators, roofs, football fields.. *cough* the idea of being caught is quite hot.. kinks, hmm, I have allot of HD related kinks, but RL are quite similar, angry sex, showers, changing rooms... and as far as porn goes, threesomes are always hot ;)
4. Be eccentric! What are the hobbies you love but would never reveal to your friends and family? Do you feel comfortable hiding it away/sharing it online where no one you know can see?
er, reading gay underage porn might be one xD although my best friends know, so does Eric for that matter.. hmm I don't know. I used to draw paperdolls and outfits for them, back in highschool, and I used to hide that like crazy, becuase it was so embarassing O_O lol
5. and finally, a generic question! If you were stranded on a deserted island, what are 5 items you can't live without and why?
haha, well, water, food, toilet paper, computer, internet an Eric (he sneaks in at the 6th) ;)
