YAY YAY YAY lotr_lims is starting back up!

Looks like Adam Baldwin's finally picked another winner - everybody loves Chuck.

Okay, there really has been a Heroes explosion lately, so I'm linking a bunch of stuff in here:
Comic-con! There's a great post with pictures and links to videos, and there's a compilation post if you're willing to brave ONTD.
Promo pics are up from episode 2.01 and episode 2.02, and that second link has some info on upcoming episodes as well; there's a few more here.
There's a couple more cast promo pics at this gallery.
Ridiculously adorable Masi Oka/Greg Grunberg picspam including links to YouTube clips at the bottom :D
Sendhil fake-kissing Greg after Greg calls him 'gorgeous' XD I LUFF THEM.

Supernatural Comic-Con reports here and here.

grrliz made a list of every mention of Sirius in Deathly Hallows. :D

I'm vaguely thrilled that Zac Efron's mother's name is Starla Baskett.

There's a teeny tiny mention of Chris in this blog, but they call Piz annoying, so BOO AFTERELLEN. BOO.

Character meme! From groaty.

List twelve characters! Don't read my answers until you've listed your own characters, otherwise you’ll break it. Um, spoilers for some things these characters are in, maybe. WHEE:

1. Captain Jack Harkness
2. Luna Lovegood
3. Simon Tam
4. Dean Winchester
5. Piz
6. Willow Rosenberg
7. Sayid Jarrah
8. Hiro Nakamura
9. Faith
10. Cosmo Brown
11. Ron Weasley
12. Kara 'Starbuck' Thrace

Which would make a better college professor, 6 (Willow Rosenberg) or 11 (Ron Weasley)? What subjects would they teach?

Willow would obviously be a better college professor (well, as long as she doesn't act the way she did while actually at college), and would probably teach some sort of computing class, but while running a club for magic. If university existed in the wizarding world, Ron would teach advanced DADA, with liberal amounts of help from Hermione and Harry. He'd have to work on his frustration and calling his students 'midgets', though.

Do you think 4 (Dean Winchester) is hot? How hot?


UM YES. YES, I THINK SO. Like, top 5 of all time hot. The most beautiful man ON THE PLANET.

12 (Kara 'Starbuck' Thrace) sends 8 (Hiro Nakamura) on a mission. What is it, and does it succeed?

LOL she'd send him back in time to figure out WHAT THE FUCK WAS GOING ON with her mother and whether she's the final Cylon. Though I suppose she'd know that by now. Maybe she'd send him back in time to kill Dualla.

What is or would be 9's (Faith) favorite book?

Faith doesn't read, she waits for the movie to come out.

Would it make more sense for 2 (Luna Lovegood) to swear fealty to 6 (Willow Rosenberg), or the other way around?

That's really hard. I want to say Willow would have to bow down to Luna, because Luna can control her magic and is, you know, generally awesome, but then Willow's a goddess. So I suppose Luna would swear fealty to Willow. She'd probably get distracted and wander off, though.

For some reason, 5 (Piz) is looking for a roommate. Should 5 share a studio apartment with 9 (Faith) or with 10 (Cosmo Brown)?

Cosmo Brown. Piz and Faith together would just...not work. We know Faith can't share without shagging, and she would probably run over his heart with a semi before splitting for some adventure. I think Piz would find Cosmo hilarious, and they could bond over music and old movies.

7 (Sayid Jarrah), 2 (Luna) and 12 (Starbuck) have dinner together. Where do they go, and what do they discuss?

I still love the idea of Sayid and Starbuck hanging out. They would try to kill each other as a result of an argument about viper care, then shag, then try to kill each other again while Luna dreamily wondered what kind of creature the unidentified talon she pulled out of her meal belonged to, and batted at the air around her head to get rid of Wrackspurts.

3 (Simon Tam) challenges 10 (Cosmo) to a duel. What happens?

Ahahaha. I can only assume Simon has better sword skills than Cosmo, though judging by the show, not by much. Cosmo would probably pick up a bendy sword, then through it aside, pretend to run away and walk into a wall while Simon stood in front of River waving the sword blindly.

If 1 (Captain Jack Harkness) stole 8's (Ron) most precious possession, how would 8 get it back?

He would just scream 'HERMIONE! HERMIONE! HERMIONEEEEEEEEEEEEE!' from the dungeon while Harry came up with a plan. *facepalm* C'mon, much as I love Ron it's totally true. Captain Jack would probably let her go pretty quickly after discovering that she's actually a witch, not an alien, and no, she doesn't want to sleep with him, but thankyou very much for the offer.

Suggest a title for a story in which 7 (Sayid) and 12 (Starbuck) both attain what they most desire.

"Lost in Space" - Sayid finally gets off the island, but finds himself on a battlestar where he's back in the army again, working for Lee Adama whose hot shit pilot wife gives him hell every week.

What kind of plot device would you use if you wanted 4 (Dean Winchester) and 1 (Captain Jack) to work together?

PORN IS A PLOT DEVICE, RIGHT?
This one's easy. Dean and Sam are after what they think is one of the demons they released when they come across the TORCHWOOD team. The lot of them argue about whether the creature's alien or demon until Sam and Ianto (alright, and maybe Gwen) are captured and then they work together to kicks its alien-demon ass.

If 7 (Sayid) visited you for the weekend, how would you get along?

I'm sure I could find some use for him. He'd probably be vaguely bemused by me.

If you could command 3 (Simon) to perform any one task or service for you, what would it be?

...I'm sure I could find some use for him. One that didn't involve clothes.

Does anyone on your friends list write or draw 11 (Ron)?

thepsychicclam slashes him with Harry, I know that much. I'm pretty sure there are others who write him too, but I don't tend to have writing journals friended - there's not that many fandoms I read fic in, and Harry Potter isn't among them (shoebox_project excluded.)

If 2 (Luna) had to choose sides between 4 (Dean) and 5 (Piz), which would it be?

She seems to like Deans, but I think Luna would drive Dean crazy and he probably wouldn't be willing to accept her. Piz likes his girls blond and slightly crazy, and I think Luna would take to Piz.

What might 10 (Cosmo) shout while charging into battle?

At last, I can start suffering and write that symphony.

If you chose a song to represent 8 (Hiro Nakamura), which song would you choose?

I actually have a song called Hiro's Song. It doesn't apply to our Hiro at all though. There's really only one answer to this question anyway: Time Warp, baby.

1 (Captain Jack), 6 (Willow) and 12 (Starbuck) are having dim sum at a Chinese restaurant. There is only one scallion pancake left, and they all reach for it at the same time. Who gets to eat it?

Starbuck. Nothing gets in that girl's way when she wants something.

What might be a good pick-up line for 2 (Luna) to use on 10 (Cosmo)?

Well, anything she said would crack him up anyway, so it'd work out fine.

What would 5 (Piz) most likely be arrested for?

Underage drinking? ;)

What is 6's (Willow) secret?

She's only with Kennedy for the sex.

If 11 (Faith) and 9 (Ron) were racing to a destination, who would get there first?

Ron, because as much as Faith is kickass and a fast runner, Ron can Apparate. And Faith can't.

3 (Simon) and 7 (Sayid) tell conflicting versions of events. Which is more reliable?

They're both pretty reliable, actually, as long as you're not asking them about their sister (Simon) or their past (Sayid). I think Sayid's would be slightly more reliable, because Simon would have to alter the events to make it seem like River wasn't involved (and he actually, you know...got to kick some ass.)

1 (Captain Jack Harkness) and 9 (Faith) reluctantly team up to save the world from the threat posed by 4's (Dean Winchester) sinister secret organization. 11 (Ron Weasley) volunteers to help them, but it is later discovered that 11 (Ron) is actually a spy for 4 (Dean). Meanwhile, 4 (Dean) has kidnapped 12 (Starbuck) in an attempt to force their surrender. Following the wise advice of 5 (Piz), they seek out 3 (Simon), who gives them what they need to complete their quest.

What title would you give this fic? Name three people on your friends list who might read it. Name one person who should write it.

I would call it highly unlikely. I think a few people would read Captain Jack/Faith, but I can't imagine Dean as a Big Bad with a sinister secret organisation. My imagination is BROKEN by this concept.

If you had to walk home through a bad neighbourhood late at night, would you feel safer in the company of 7 (Sayid) or 8 (Hiro)?

Oh, again, either. I think I'd feel safer with Sayid, though - if Hiro's powers failed he'd be likely to just stand there and wibble, whereas Sayid would at least kick some ass.

Thanks for the awesome Heroes links! I think I have a crush on Jack Coleman. Oh me.

The character meme! Always good for a laugh :D I haven't done it for a long time, so I'm going to do it with some of my new favorite faces, hee!

Do you watch Grey's Anatomy? Last Sunday they had the backdoor pilot for Private Practice which stars Chris... Shirtless. Strange nipples but cute nonetheless

Did it look something like this? (http://green-queen.livejournal.com/712125.html#cutid1) *g*
