questions, questions

I've seen a few folks do this, and it seems like a neat idea. Question time! Ask me three questions pertaining to any of my fandoms or "A Poem Every Day," and I'll answer 'em.

Since you used the icon...

[sharpest_asp]

1. Doc Savage...What's the most defining characteristic of him in your eyes?

2. Is there a supporting character you like most?

3. Who would you like to see him team with or test against?

Re: Since you used the icon...

1) Still waters running deep.

2) I don't think there's anybody who doesn't love Monk. After that, among the fabulous five, Johnny. Outside that, Pat and Princess Monja. In terms of villains, John Sunlight gets more press, but I *love* Cadwiller Olden, and wish he'd made another appearance.

3) I'd like to see Monk have a fistfight with Long Tom, actually. It's not emphasized often, but Long Tom is an unexpectedly terrific fighter, and it's mentioned that even Monk is leery of taking him on. I think that would be a really neat match-up. (The winner probably passes out three seconds after the loser hits the floor.)

1. What do you think John Henry and Weaver are really up to?

2. What do you think happens to John Connor post series?

3. What happens to Savannah, Sarah, and James?

[hradzka]

1) Weaver is trying to manage the conflict. John and Skynet are trying to kill each other, but all Skynet is doing is making John smarter and all John is doing is pushing back Judgment Day. And if Judgment Day gets pushed back far enough, John Connor will eventually be too old to make a difference. They're both trying to dam history. Weaver's building a spillway.

2) He and Cameron live a quiet life in a mountain cabin with lots and lots and lots of guns. Maybe they wind up looking after Savannah at some point.

3) James picks Savannah up from gymnastics. He looks out for her and keeps her well away from Sarah, who is under lockdown, which gets complicated as she gets sicker. When Weaver comes back, she asks Mr. Ellison if he would be willing to marry her. It is logical: Savannah is fond of him, he is good with her, and this would free Catherine up to devote more time to important things. Ellison is rather horrified by this.

"Ellison is rather horrified by this."

Yeah, no kidding. Eep!

I love APED. How much longer have we got of it?

Did the one about the moaning house a couple of days ago remind you of 'The Mewlips' too? (I liked it, incidentally.)

How much time are you putting into APED on average?

[hradzka]

1) See the first post! Going to try for a solid year of it, which puts the end date into early January 2010.

2) No, actually. I'd forgotten all about the Mewlips.

3) It varies. Sometimes it's quick, sometimes a few hours. Sometimes I'll write something, then let it percolate while I think about how it could wind up the best it could possibly be.

2) No, actually. I'd forgotten all about the Mewlips.

It doesn't feel like a copy, or anything -- it just captures a lot of the same feeling for me.
