bliumchikIt's National Delurking Week! So if you read my blog and aren't very talkative, wave a leetle flag!
THE MOTHERBOARD ARRIVES. My dad and I are now re-assembling my computer, and my fingers feel funny from cleaning things with some sort of clear chemical that smells like perol and feels like nail polish remover. Hurray!
Also, have a meme from![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
vulgarweed. I think I've done it before, but it's such fun!
The Challenge: Assemble a superteam from your various fandoms.
Your team must consist of the following:
(1) Team Leader
(1) Warrior
(1) Smartypants
(1) Hottie
(1) Comic Relief
All your superteam members must be from DIFFERENT fandoms.
And as a bonus, give them a SuperHero Name.
EDIT: Links fixed.
Team Leader: Malcolm Reynolds from Firefly, or Captain Tightpants! Grouchy, cynical and sarcastic, the guy clearly has a tortured past, but he sure has a way with people. He pretends not to care, but he secretly knows his crew very, very well and will do anything to protect them. Also he's a Big Damn Hero, which is eminently suitable.
Warrior: Thessaly, from Sandman. She's cold, ruthless and amoral, and would probably get pulled into this superhero game completely against her will - but she's a few thousand years old, the last of a group of Greek witches, and is perfectly happy to kill, maim and raise the dead to further her own ends. She's not good, but she's good, and would be very handy to have on the team, presuming you could trick her into joining. We can call her Witch, it's nice and catchy.
Smartypants: The Thaum - Ponder Stibbons, from Discworld. A bright (and skinny) young wizard on a faculty full of wizards who generally spend their days plotting to assassinate one another, as long as it doesn't happen around dinner time. Ponder has yet to realise that the purpose of Wizard's University is to STOP magic from being used, and thus avoid creating more of those depressing bits of landscape that glow slightly and spontaneously turn people into teakettles, so he tries to be efficient. He once invented a magical computer composed mostly of glass tubes full of ants.
Hottie: Sam and Dean, the brothers from Supernatural. Yes, know that's two people (We Are Brothers!!), but they're both hotties and they sort of function as a team. They're really, really hot. And also they hunt demons. They can be the Winchester Boys. Have I mentioned they're hot?
Comic Relief: Newton Pulsifer, from Good Omens. He's UnHandyMan! The poor bloke loves computers and anything electronic or mechanical - unfortunately, they don't like him. He spent his youth carefully assembling model planes that always turned out slightly disfunctional and model radios that shorted out the entire block. Once the magazine he subscribed to published a joke kit for a Completely Non-Working Radio, batteries the wrong way round and wires crossed, guaranteed not to do anything at all whatsoever. Newt built it. It picked up Radio Moscow. His position on the team will be to comically fail at everything, until the critical moment when he will try to fix the Doomsday Device...
So, presenting: The Random Assembly! Led by Captain Tightpants and featuring the Winchester Boys, UnHandy Man, Witch and The Thaum!
Thanks (many, MANY thanks) toannella for the Supernatural picspam.
