Those who are long-time readers of my blog may recognize the main idea of this post, because I've posted this interaction exercise thing before.
But hey, self-plagiarism is style as Alfred Hitchcock said, and I felt like doing it again with different characters.
Write down the first ten book characters who come to mind. Try not to use more than one character from any given book.
Character 1: Sam from Lord of the Rings
Character 2: Caspian from PC and VotDT
Character 3: Ender from Ender's Game, etc.
Character 4: Peeta from the Hunger Games
Character 5: Justin from Mrs. Frisby and the Rats of NIMH
Character 6: Charles Wallace from a Wrinkle in Time
Character 7: The Scarlet Pimpernel from...well, guess
Character 8: Archie from the Nero Wolf books
Character 9: Jo from Little Women
Character 10: Erik from Phantom of the Opera
Now answer the following questions, based on the characters you wrote down above. Absolutely no going back to change the characters you've chosen!
Characters 4 through 10 are on Survivor. Who gets voted off the island first? Perhaps Archie because no one appreciates his witty commentary on everyone else.
What are the chances of characters 1 (Sam) and 8 (Archie) falling in love with each other? Nil to none.
Character 2 and character 3 get into a cat fight. Who wins and why? Though I can't imagine why Caspian and Ender would get into a fight, I would say Ender.
Of the other nine characters, who is character 7 (The Scarlet Pimpernel) most likely to have a crush on? Probably Jo.
What would happen if character 4 (Peeta) got turned into a vampire? Well, then the Hunger Games books wouldn't be the Hunger Games books, they'd be called Twilight...
Two of the characters are twins separated at birth. Which two are they? Erik and the Scarlet Pimpernel
Characters 1, 2, 3, and 9 are stuck in an elevator. What do they do to pass the time? It'd be very uncomfortable for Ender and Caspian, considering they were in a cat fight earlier. Because of that animosity, Sam would get fidgety, and Jo would just read a book.
What would happen if character 8 and character 5 were roommates? Justin is a rat....so I don't think Archie would even realize he was Justin's roommate.
What do character 10 (Erik) and character 6 (Charles Wallace) have in common? they are both very, very smart.
I tag...whoever wants to do this.

5 musings:
This is hysterical. I might just have to do it.
I'm going to do it tomorrow after your responses and results are not fresh in my brain.
Okay, that was a fun read.
Haha I love it!
This is weird. Even though I waited about a week, I still had some of the same characters as yours. Hmmm. I do realize that two of my characters are from the same book. It's what the boys and I were listening to in the car.
If Stephanie Plum, Reepicheep, Arthur Dent, Jane Eyre, Ender Wiggin, Robinson Crusoe, and Elizabeth Bennett were on Survivor, Arthur Dent would get voted off first.
I don't think there is any chance that Bilbo and Ender Wiggin would fall in love.
If Caspian and Jack Ryan got into a cat fight, I think it would be a draw unless Jack Ryan had a gun on him.
Jane Eyre would most likely have a crush on Caspian. Who wouldn't?
If Stephanie Plum were turned into a vampire, she would infect Morelli, and they would go live at the funeral parlor and Grandma Mazur would be really happy.
Twins separated at birth: Stephanie Plum and Elizabeth Bennett.
In the elevator, Bilbo, Caspian, Jack Ryan, and Robinson Crusoe would totally be able to figure out how to get out.
If Ender Wiggin and Reepicheep were roommates - that would be pretty cool.
What do Elizabeth Bennett and Arthur Dent have in common? I guess they both initially seem unable to control their fate.
