there should be a "i don't remember" option for the hair question, man *g*

also, way to make that nslash question impossible. I kept thinking, well if done riiiight...then...er...wait.

way to make that nslash question impossible

I know. It took me forever and then I couldn't even answer it myself. Heh.

"Ethereal" seems to suit you. I'm kind of delighted that just about everybody chose "charming". Hee!

The only thing that sounds good to me on the jobs list is playing with puppies. I have to be exposed to Clive's second-hand smoke all day long, and I don't even get to have sex with him? Plus, omg, what a lazy fuck; I'm nobody's cigarette monkey.

I chose Joey, b/c I think that's the only believable characterization listed, but my prediction is that the Chris choice will win, b/c that seems to be a fandom fave.

While I find the Joey one believable, I can buy the Chris one too. It just says the smartest of the five, which depending on your cynicism can be a pretty low standard. Chris has struck me, from interviews, as the one most likely to give interesting conversation on subjects outside the music business.

And, see, I don't believe the Chris one and do believe the Lance one. We all have different takes on it, and since none of us knows the members of *nsync, there's no way to prove that one response is more correct than another.

I agree. That wouldn't be my choice either, and I'm a smoker.

I think so too (and the results would seem to prove you right!). In fact, I chose the Chris answer too, but that was after much careful deliberation and a complete unwillingness to give Lance any props at all.

Holy shit?! Better than Descent? I haven't read anything about the new fic yet...on my list of stuff to read tonight.

Better than Descent? I can't wait!

IMHO, that is. I mean, I like vampire stories fine, but this one just ENSNARED me heart and soul even more than Descent did! They are truly amazing. Like Jem, except there's two of them. And neither is Jerrica. ahahhhahaha!

Okay, so three words are NOT ENOUGH FOR THE WONDER THAT IS ME I didn't read properly. Hahahahah! Am idiot!

Also, thanks for liking this one better -- truly, that's the best thing ever. Also, e-mail from me soon.

ahhhahahah! Nobody ever pays attention when I say "choose three words". It's getting so I just put that to see who chooses more and who chooses just one. *g*

Also, I seriously loved this. And I loved Descent ALOT "", so it was surprising and amazing and all sorts of superlatives to find that I was INTENSELY DEVOTED to this one. It's just--the setting, the situations, the side characters--everything's so delicious and substantial. I keep wanting to say "lush" but that was really more Descent's arena; this one has a similar fullness to it, but I guess it's more like a good wine or something. I can't even describe it properly! But I love it!!!

Are they hiring people to light Clive Owen's cigarettes? Even though I read he doesn't smoke anymore, I'm fully willing to stand at the ready if he ever wants to cheat. Or y'know, get laid or something.

*koff*




Crazy!

*g* I would imagine that at some point, Clive would get drunk and snog the person who's always there to helpfully light his cigarettes. I would hope that he'd be a gentleman that way. ahahahahh!

you know, I might have accepted that excuse, but that was BEFORE I knew it was 400+ pages.

So I'm back to being jealous all over again and pouting harder than ever.

You know, I had three different items checked for the third question, and then I realized the question was what would you LIKE to be described as, not what are you most likely to actually be described as.

Heh.

I want people to describe me as intrepid. And smashing! "That ducks, she's smashing," they will say. "and intrepid. and also razor sharp. see my paper-cuts? That was her. ow. pointy."

and I will be hiding round the corner and I will laugh like this: Mwahahaha!
and then I will swish my cape and fly away.

I lied in several questions, but what do you expect when you make such a sneaky poll and then have a girl fill it out first thing in the morning? So sneaky. I will never make it to "prim" like this!

You are the PERFECT person to choose "prim" as a word they'd want used to describe them! I adore it as much as I adore you, you glittery shy prim little miss, you.

Hee! School is keeping me too busy to feel lonely right now, which is good. In a way. *g*

The Chapin Sisters version of Toxic is so incredible! I have a weakness for Miss Britney so I liked the song anyhow, but their version is like Travis's version of "Hit Me Baby"--it takes the song to a whole new place. I ♥ it so!
