graycardinalAll of a sudden there are three or four iterations of the venerable 15 Characters Meme on my reading page. How can I possibly resist adding to the mayhem?
ETA: The list of meme-ists, so far (because it's only fair to give everyone credit, and to encourage cross-reading)

Being me, I have long since tweaked the exact verbiage of the meme to my own specification, so the following is not actually copied from any of the other current meme-artists, but the process is identical.
Rules:
I've made a list of fifteen (15) characters from a variety of fandoms. Your job is to ask questions about various combinations of these characters (examples: What secret past do #8 and #14 share? What if #2, #6, and #9 went on a road trip? If #5 and #10 were having dinner, who invited who?), which I'll do my best to answer.
Once we've accumulated sufficient questions, I'll compile the results and make a new post or posts incorporating all the Qs and As. My original reason for this was to accommodate both the Dreamwidth and LJ versions of this journal; nowadays, it's because I tend to write sufficiently detailed answers that the threading would get complicated if I didn't.
Notes:
Different practitioners of this meme make different sorts of lists. My approach tends to involve recruiting from as many different sources as I can possibly manage (in this instance, either 13 or 15 unique fandoms are represented depending on how you count/label). Thus, queries are extremely likely to produce Improbable Crossover Theater for various -- and sometimes really weird -- values of "improbable". Management will do its best to respond to all queries posed, but reserves the right to designate some results Just Too Bizarre To Contemplate.
Let the game begin!
