1. Of 1 (Pinocchio), 6 (Sir John Falstaff), 9 (The Vision of The Avengers) & 12 (Meriadoc Brandybuck) go bird watching. Who is the most likely to become an avid bird watcher? Who is most likely to die of boredom first? Who is the most likely to scare away all the birds? Who is most likely to eat a live bird?
Obviously, Pinocchio is the one who dies of boredom first. It is always his characteristic that he starts everything with cheerful good will, but can be distracted by just about anything - just ask Messrs. Cat and Fox. Sir John will indubitably have brought along a few sustaining little somethings to keep him company in the long lonely hours, and he will also fall asleep in the warm afternoon sun (they could never have got him out of the Garter otherwise), at which point his snores are sure to scare the birds for miles around. The Vision will be coolly efficient but unconcerned; his mostly green colour will also make him melt against the background very efficiently. Merry is the one who is likely to become enthusiastic - if indeed his old habit of tree-climbing in the Shire have not already made him an enthusiast.
2. What instrument does 4 (Donald Duck) secretly play? And why does 4 keep this hidden musical talent a secret?
It is a canonic Carl Barks fact that Donald plays at least two instruments: the ukulele, and a a gigantic and earth-shaking steam organ built by himself. As for the ukulele, if you played it, would you not do your best to keep that guilty passion secret? And as for the steam organ, it has remained hidden since a sad little incident with a mob of about 50,000 infuriated neighbours.
3. 5 (Jeeves) and 10 (Argus Filch) are stranded in the Utah desert. Are they able to make it to food and water in time, or do they die of dehydration? Does one of them desert the other, or do they make it across the desert together?
Jeeves can do anything he sets his mind to. He is sure to take Filch and himself safe through the desert, and even to look spotless when they finally reach civilization. But I would not be too sure that Filch's self-respect would have survived as intact as his body.
4. 13 (Buffy Summers), 14 (Tom Riddle) and 15 (Count Dracula of Transylvania) want to go out to dinner together. Each has a different preference. Which of them eventually prevails in convincing the other two?
Count Dracula, obviously. He is a passionate nationalist and will weave such an eulogy of the food of his homeland, that Buffy and Riddle will be simply unable to resist. And he will do it simply out of national pride, because, being the only vampire in the lot, he is the only one who cannot taste normal food himself.
P>S.: As far as I am concerned, Buffy Versus Dracula was the worst episode in all seven series, with an incoherent plot and a completely unbelievable Dracula. The Dracula I mean here is the original in the novel.
5. 1 (Pinocchio), 3 (Superman), 8 (Paul Bunyan) and 10 (Argus Filch) all become door-to-door salespeople. What does each person sell? Who gets the top sales and who is the most annoying about it?
Pinocchio sells his father Geppetto's carpentry and woodwork, and makes an excellent living ad. Superman will sell something cheap, bulky and with little added value, but which everyone needs and which is good for people; milk springs to mind. He trusts in his super-strength and speed to shift enough to make a profit. Paul Bunyan, obviously, sells the fruit of his work - door to door, in his case, means town to town, since a single delivery carries enough wood to last a moderate-sized town a year. Argus Filch eulogizes the merits of Kwikspell - it has done nothing for him, but at least it can help him make money from other credulous Squibs.
6. What does 9 (the Vision of The Avengers) name his/her new kitten?
Toughest question ever! My guess is that he thinks and thinks about it, but can come up with nothing, and eventually leaves it to his wife, the Scarlet Witch, who, being human, has imagination.

8 (Paul Bunyan), 13 (Buffy Summers) and 2 (Albus Dumbledore) are making T-shirts to wear to a concert. Who's the band? Who designed the shirts? Who's probably going to rip theirs up anyway, stage-crashing?
Buffy and Paul started out the idea together, but, the one being tiny and the other XXXXXXXL-plus, they had some problem with getting sizes for normal-sized humans right; so they roped Dumbledore in. Dumbledore also proved surprisingly imaginative in the matter of designs, and quickly became the leading partner. He is obviously also the one who does crazy things like stage-crashing; Buffy would feel too self-conscious, and Paul would be too large to see the point.
11 (Narcissa Malfoy) and 9 (the Vision of The Avengers) are trapped beside each other on the very top of a Ferris wheel, which then breaks, stranding them for hours. What happens? How likely are fatalities?
They must both have been depowered at the same time, since ordinarily both of them would find it easy to get to the ground - Narcissa would Accio her broom, and the Vision would fly away in his intangible state. And this suggests that there is more to the situation than just a mechanical accident. Neither of them is likely to lose his or her temper, but I imagine they would bore each other a lot. Eventually one or both would come up with a way to get off the wheel.
15 (Count Dracula of Transylvania) and 14 (Tom Riddle) are given three tickets to the opera. Who gets the third? Or will they scalp the tickets for cash?
The third goes to the Count's dinner for the evening. Riddle would have scalped his, but the Count made him feel such an oik at the suggestion, that he submitted to sitting through an evening of music that bored him stiff.
1 (Pinocchio), 3 (Superman), 5 (Jeeves) and 13 (Buffy Summers) wrap 12 (Meriadoc Brandybuck)'s house in toilet paper and are caught at it. Whose fault its it? Whose idea was it? Who makes a break for it, and who rats him out? What happens to the miscreants?
Except for Superman, these characters all have a streak of mischief that makes it very credible that they would TP the house of someone who had drawn their ire. Pinocchio is generally a follower rather than an initiator of mischief, and I imagine that Jeeves, the bright ideas man, would be the one who made the plan. And if there is one person who could inveigle the simon-pure Superman into TPing, he is the man. I imagine that Merry must have been responsible for some particularly reprehensible prank at the expense of Bertie Wooster.
cheyinka:
2(Albus Dumbledore), 4 (donald Duck), 8 (Paul Bunyan), and 15 (Count Dracula) are sharing a very small house. Which one goes crazy first?
Need you ask? Donald, obviously. He runs squawking away after managing to make a mess of the entire house, because he takes it as a personal outrage that Count Dracula is not visible in mirrors. Then Paul Bunyan, tired of the chomps that someone seems to be always taking at his ankles, stomps off - besides, there were a couple of forests in Minnesota that needed clearing. Dracula is left alone with Dumbledore, and decides that he prefers Transylvania in the spring.
6 (Sir John Falstaff) and 11 (Narcissa Malfoy) wake up in bed next to each other. How'd they get there?
Easy! Lucius and Narcissa have had a row - it happens, even in the happiest marriages - and Lucius decides he wants to take his wife down a peg or two. So he goes to Oberon and borrows the spell that Oberon had used on Titania in A Midsummer Night's Dream, and uses it on Narcissa, to make her fall for the most humiliating character in all of Shakespeare. Sir John can hardly believe his luck - or rather, he can, because the man who thought himself handsome enough to win the favours of Mistress Ford is none too self-aware. However, when Narcissa wakes up next morning and realizes what happened, she transforms him into a toad for a couple of weeks.
5 (Jeeves) is bringing food to 10 (Argus Filch), who's sick in bed. What kind of food?
Ordinary sick man's fare, light and easy on the digestion. This being Jeeves, it will all be deliciously done. He does not think much of Filch's work as a servant, and has no opinion at all of his manners, but that has nothing to do with the high standards he always sets himself.

Date: 2006-05-04 02:12 pm (UTC)1.) 1 (Pinocchio), 3 (Superman), 5 (Jeeves), 9 (The Vision of The Avengers), and 12 (Meriadoc Brandybuck) plot to kill 15 (Count Dracula). What did 15 do to make them want to kill him/her/it, and what happens to the plot, if anything, when 11 (Narcissa Malfoy) discovers it?
They are all sick and tired of trying to get rid of Dracula so many times. The idea is for Pinocchio to tell one really great big whopper of a lie while his nose is pointed straight at Dracula's heart. Unfortunately, Narcissa decides that Dracula might be grateful for a hint - and so, when the plot is ripe, he simply fails to turn up.
2.) 14 (Tom Riddle) wakes up in the morning with a brand new tatoo on his/her/its bum. How did this happen?
Oh, he probably committed some new crime the previous night.
3.) 2 (Dumbledore) and 10 (Filch) get into an argument with a Dalek. Who fires/hits first, and why?
The Dalek tried to exterminate Mrs.Norris. You can imagine what happened next.
4.) 13 (Buffy Summers), 7 (Lucius Malfoy), and 4 (Donald Duck) are three finalists on "The Weakest Link". Who wins, and does any one of them strike and/or kill Anne Robinson... or ask her out on a date?
Donald has to be kept from her throat, and it takes all of Buffy's strength to do so. Lucius, on the other hand, appreciates her way of doing things, though not enough to take her on a date - Narcissa would not be amused.
5.) 8 (Paul Bunyan) is holding a classroom full of teenagers hostage. 6 (Sir John Falstaff) is the kids' only hope for rescue. Why is 8 doing it? What does 6 do to try to rescue the kids? (6 saving the day is a requisite.)
The Headmaster of the school has won Babe, Paul Bunyan's huge blue ox, in a game of poker. When Paul hears that the ox has been sold to Sir John to make a record-winning hamburger, he goes berserk. To save the kids, Sir John has to give up his cherished idea for a world record beefburger.
