Meme!

I've seen this on a couple other LJs, but actually swiped it from [livejournal.com profile] msbbt.

So ask me a question about anything--fandom, real life, music, vegetables, etc--and I will answer you and then ask YOU a question and then the whole process could be repeated if anyone wants to keep it up. If this works, by the end we could know each other so well we're sick of each other and have to quit one another for a while.

Okay, to get the ball rolling, how did you get involved in the DC fandom? =)

*is awake in the middle of the night sooo*

Crack question!

What would you do if you murdered someone and Shinichi/Heiji was the detective on the job? 8D

*shot*

Ummm, what would you do if you had Kaito locked in your closet?! 0_o

Good question! Okay, so my friend Kat told me I absolutely had to check out this new show on Adult Swim called Case Closed. One night, there was a good Inuyasha episode on, and then I saw that this Case Closed was on next, so I figured "I like mysteries. Let's check it out!" And it was the episode where the killer in bandages is stalking people out at Sonoko's villa. I think it was the scene were Ran crawls into bed with Conan 'cause she's scared and his reaction that officially hooked me.

It kind of became a nightly tradition--my friend Vixie and I would watch it in my room (it was on at midnight), while two of our guy friends would watch it over in their dorm room in a different building, and we'd all watch together via MSN Messanger. But it wasn't until later I started doing research online (because I am that big of a nerd), and found out all about Kaitou KID and Heiji (who I hadn't seen yet) and stuff. And it wasn't until after I started reading fics, like Icka's Cookies and Becky Tailweaver's Relative Truth that I realized I want to join this fandom. Big Time.

There you have it. My long-winded answer as to how I got yanked into this fandom kicking and screaming *laugh* Okay, so I wasn't kicking, and the "screams" were more "fangirl squeals."

Okay, for you: What exactly is that thing getting all smooshed in your icon? I laugh whenever I see it, but I don't know what it is!!

[identity profile] candy--chan.livejournal.com 2006-03-20 05:56 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, I like crack questions!

Okay, if I shot/stabbed/strangled/poisoned/ran over some poor slob with a car and it was sort of on purpose and Shinichi and/or Heiji came out of the pages to solve the case...I would glomp them both--extensively--and then leave the country. Quickly.

*revives you*

Kaito in my closet? *thinks Evil Fangirl Thoughts of Evil* Maybe make him show me some of his tricks? *laugh*

If you could be any kind of tree, what kind of tree would you be and why?

I'm a dork (-:

Ask me a question tooo, ok? (even though i dunno what fandom is & all that good stuff! anywho...)

What is the one thing you would NOT do, even if your life depended on it?

I suppose I'll make a post real quick in case the 2 people who read my LJ wanna ask me ?s (incl. you, hehe)

Re: I'm a dork (-:

[identity profile] candy--chan.livejournal.com 2006-03-20 09:37 pm (UTC)(link)
Eat crap. Seriously, that's just disgusting *insert barfy face here*

Hmmm...if you could marry any celebrity you wanted (except for Ricky Martin ^_~), which one would you marry, and why?

Re: I'm a dork (-:

[identity profile] shake-c-ras.livejournal.com 2006-03-20 09:43 pm (UTC)(link)
I would marry Bob Barker b/c he's pretty old & will die soon & i'll be rich!!! JK JK

Hmm... I think I would marry the guy who plays Napoleon Dynamite (John Heder i think his name is.) He's not the best looking guy & he's kinda crazy, hehe, but he's really funny. I just hope ricky doesn't mind that i'll have 2 husbands, hehe!

I wouldn't eat crap either (-:

my turn! let me see...how do you format stuff on ff.net? i just poseted my 1st 30 kisses fic on there!

[identity profile] axtar.livejournal.com 2006-03-21 02:31 am (UTC)(link)
XDDDDD!! That 'thing' is actually a guy called Inui from the anime Prince of Tennis whose goals in life are to collect as much data as he can and make Inui juice (the juice is not exactly...drinking material). Seriously, that is one stupidly cracky anime about guys who only dream about playing tennis (For example, the bases of that icon are screenshots of a special chibi episode). My friend got me hooked onto the series via Tennimyu, the musical and, as they all say, the rest was history. Glad the icon made you laugh; I was in stitches when I was making it. (my official crack icon)

This should be the chibi eps. I screencapped from. It takes some time to load, but its so worth it. X3

Hmm...back to me! If you were a super villain, what would be your super-evil power? *shoots self*

Re: I'm a dork (-:

You're supposed to ask me a question back, and we just keep going back and forth =P Ask away!

[identity profile] candy--chan.livejournal.com 2006-03-21 03:21 am (UTC)(link)
Congratulations!

To format on ff.net, you first have to upload your story onto the Document Manager (which I'm sure you already know). It'll then be on a little chart thing that says the title, word count, and then a link that says "Edit/Preview." Click on that--it should bring up text window, where you can add the line-dividers and change things last minute.

Okay, time for me to ask you a question...what's your favorite anime series of all time? *hits self in forehead for lack of creativity*

[identity profile] candy--chan.livejournal.com 2006-03-21 03:24 am (UTC)(link)
I'll watch the eps once I get back to campus and have good internet instead of crappy home dial-up connection *shakes fist at internet*

My super-power? Hmmmm...X-ray vision would be fun *smiles sweetly* As long as I can fly, and make sure I frequently reference the Evil Overlord List *nods sagely*

For you...if you could be any kitchen utensil or appliance, which one would you be, and why?

[identity profile] axtar.livejournal.com 2006-03-21 03:50 am (UTC)(link)
Kitchen utensil?.....I'd probably be one of the multitask-things that can dice, slice and do too-many different things. Because they're useful but frustrating. ^___^

What is your favorite novel? (No, manga isn't counted! XP)

[identity profile] candy--chan.livejournal.com 2006-03-21 04:05 pm (UTC)(link)
*laugh* Oh, good answer!

Honestly, I didn't even think manga when I saw that question. The first thing that popped into my head was The Catcher in the Rye by J.D. Salinger. It was easy to read, and the symbolism wasn't wholly bizarre--it's really a book about nothing. And I sort of "forgot" to give my copy back to my teacher when we were done with it *looks innocent*

Second place goes to John Steinback's Of Mice and Men. I finished that book the day I got it. Also partial to Harry Potter, but I'm not sure if that counts as a novel.

What's your favorite anime/manga series of all time? *clutches award for Lamest Question Ever*

[identity profile] axtar.livejournal.com 2006-03-21 04:16 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, tough question for me...O__O I don't have a particular favorite fandom, it kinda alternate between the fandoms I currently obsess over. At the moment, I guess it is Prince of Tennis, though in the near future it might be Bleach or Detective Conan again. These are my OT3 fandom, so...^___^ *Yes, I realize I'm cheating on this question, hohoho...*

Oh okay, if you had to dress up as a vegetable for a whole day, what veggie would you be? *snatches award from you* X3

[identity profile] inquisitorial.livejournal.com 2006-03-21 05:30 pm (UTC)(link)
hmmm...thats a hard one....but ill say dbz...cuz that is what got me into anime....hmmm...another question for you...which is better shin/ran, kaito/aoko, or heiji/kazuha?

[identity profile] candy--chan.livejournal.com 2006-03-21 09:27 pm (UTC)(link)
DBZ was my first "fanfic" fandom, really, though Sailor Moon was my first anime...

I tend to write more Shin/Ran than anything else, but...this'll probably sound like dodging the question, but I like them each in their own way and for their own reasons.

Shinichi and Ran have that whole "star-crossed lovers" thing going on, and there's a lot of romantic potential there, if they would both just 'fess up. Kaito and Aoko have the issue of secrets and this wall--again, major romantic potential, but with the KID thing between them, it might be a while before it's realized. Plus, I don't think Kaito fully trusts Aoko simply because of KID.

Heiji and Kazuha just make me laugh because they're so perfect for each other, but they're both hopelessly clueless. In fact, if I really had to pick, I would probably say H/K is my favorite, though I love them all.

For you...if you could abolish any one school subject, which one would you axe?

[identity profile] candy--chan.livejournal.com 2006-03-21 09:33 pm (UTC)(link)
Hmmm...maybe a carrot, because they're skinny! Or perhaps an eggplant, because they're purple (which is a fun color for a vegetable), and because then nobody would want to eat me XP

All righty...ummm...favorite color! *steals trophy back* MINE!

[identity profile] inquisitorial.livejournal.com 2006-03-22 12:32 am (UTC)(link)
hehe....*goes to school with axe, flamethrower, and anti-creep stick aka bat* TIME TO DIE ENGLISH CLASS!!!...makes no sense since i like to write...bu ti never really liked english for some reason. next.....ummm....if you could be any anime character, who would you be? *mad at self for asking this question again when i annoyed friends with it for a year*

[identity profile] axtar.livejournal.com 2006-03-22 02:48 am (UTC)(link)
Don't have a particular one; it varies with the days, really, ehehehe...It is most frequently yellow though. ^__^ *Watch me skirt around the question! Weeee!*

If Armageddon arrives and you could save only one person in this world, who would it be? *accepts 'Most drastic Question' award*

[identity profile] candy--chan.livejournal.com 2006-03-22 04:41 am (UTC)(link)
...I take it you don't like English? O_O

Ummm...ya know, I'm really partial to Sango from Inuyasha. She's tough, she's got heart, and yet she's really kind of fragile. Plus, she knows how to kick some serious ass, and is friends with a large fire-cat ^_^

...favorite color! (It's late, my creativity all went into a fic dump earlier, I have nothing left...)

[identity profile] musingmiyu.livejournal.com 2006-03-22 05:12 am (UTC)(link)
*asks question*

:D

If you could write one canon theme for the Detective Conan anime/manga - what scene would you write and why? :D

[identity profile] candy--chan.livejournal.com 2006-03-22 05:22 am (UTC)(link)
*deadpans* Gosho Aoyama, so I can find out how Conan ends. No, no, I'm just kidding!!

*is shot*

Oh wow...I honestly don't know. I'm not avoiding the question, but I really don't know. If I could only save one person...probably one of my family members, but don't ask me to pick one.

For you--is there a song that just makes you want to rip your ears off your head when you hear it? If so, what song is that?

[identity profile] axtar.livejournal.com 2006-03-22 05:34 am (UTC)(link)
XDDD *Gosho Aoyama, SNERK*

Oh, I remember the days when Macy Gray's 'I Try' would come on and I'd try to shove my head down the nearest drainpipe to scream.*reminisces nostalgically* Those good ol' days...But I've grown more tolerant of late, maybe because in every song, there's always an outstanding point in which you can appreciate (It's just harder to find in SOME songs.)

Which feat would you prefer to stake claim on: Building the Eiffel Tower out of potato chips, having the ability to eat potato chips underwater, or making the world's first plastic book (with plastic pages and all)?

...I may need that 'Lamest question award' back...^^;;;;;; (Yes, I'm consuming potato chips at the moment...) On a more serious note, what feat would you most like to be remembered for (specify your own)?






[identity profile] candy--chan.livejournal.com 2006-03-22 05:41 am (UTC)(link)
Yay, a question!!

Hmmmm...well, they've slooooooowly been inching closer to it, but it hasn't happened yet, so I'd definitely go with a Heiji/Kazuha make-out scene. A really good make-out scene. Like, an entire file long. *waves flag* For fangirls everywhere!!

And now I get to ask you a question. Let's see...at the end of the Detective Conan series, during the bust of the Black Ops, do you think our intrepid hero will be as Conan or Shinichi? Or which one would you prefer him to be, and why? *clutches award for Most Long-Winded Question*
