"Toothbrushes--metaphors for life!" One of my teachers.

Since Everyone's done one of these, I might as well...

Name ten of your favourite Harry Potter characters in any order.
1) Ron Weasley 2) Fred Weasley 3) George Weasley 4) James Potter 5) Luna Lovegood 6) Neville Longbottom 7) Sirius Black 8) Draco Malfoy 9) Harry Potter 10) Remus Lupin

1) Have you read a five/ten fic before?

Luna/Remus. Er...No. I've never ever come across that.

2) Do you think three is hot? How hot?

George is hot enough to scorch the sun!

3) What would happen if six got one pregnant?

Neville got Ron pregnant...a lot of freaking out from Ron, ridicule from the twins and...I dunno, a brown haired, chubby baby with blue eyes and freckles?

4) Do you recall any good fics about nine?

Harry. Yes. So many fics I can't remember any right now (if that makes sense).

5) Would seven and two make a good couple?

Sirius/Fred. Sure--they're both pranksters! The fun would never end.

6) Four/eight or four/nine?

James/Draco or James/Harry. James/Harry, I guess because for some reason I can picture incest but not James/Draco. (I'm messed up like that).

7) What would happen if seven discovered three and eight in a secret relationship?

Sirius discovered George and Draco in a secret relationship. He'd act totally nonplussed and calmly sit them down and launch into an awkward/hilarious lecture on safe sex.

8) Make a summary of at least twenty words for a two/six fic.

Fred/Neville. Ever since George got a girlfriend Fred has been alone and extremely bored. He decides to get a new accomplice and--for some reason--thinks the blundering Neville would make a very entertaining partner indeed. (As you can see, I'm terrible at summaries).

9). Is there such a thing as a four/ten romantic fluff story?

James/Remus. Yes; I am sure of it.

10) Suggest a title for a one/five Hurt/Comfort fic.

Ron/Luna. 'Well, That Was Stupid Of You, Ronald.'

11. What kind of plot would you use if four wanted to seduce one?

James wanted to seduce Ron...Well, there would have to be a time-travel device first of all...Okay--Ron is annoyed Harry and Hermione both got to travel back in time and he missed out so he gets hold of the time turner. He gets sent back to the Marauders' Era and James is first to see him appear out of no where and rushes to help him. Eventually, James falls for the confused redhead and since Ron's kind of dense he decides to abandon subtlety and wears leather pants and a bright, sparkly 'I Want To Shag Ron' T-shirt. Hopefully, Ron won't ask, "Which Ron?"

12. Does anyone on your friends list read number seven het? What about nine slash?

Sirius het? Sure. Harry slash? Definitely.

13. If you wrote a songfic about number ten, what song would you chose?

Well, I don't know any English language songs, so...Tanha Dil by Shaan.

14. If you wrote a two/three/six fic, what would the warning be?

Fred/George/Neville. Warnings: Incest, cross-dressing, underage-drinking and misuse of specific Weasleys' Wizard Wheezes.

15. What pick-up line might eight use on five?

Draco/Luna. "You're a complete psycho and greatly below me in pretty much anything...but I'm horny and you have nice hair. Wanna shag?"

16. Challenge: Write a drabblefic for ten/eight.

Remus/Draco. Challenge disinclined!

Other Stuff:

I speak/read/write (somewhat) Punjabi, Hindi, Hindustani (yes, I count Hindustani), English (duh) and I'm learning French.

English isn't my first language--but I think I've gotten the hang of it. :P

I have an extensive list of favourite celebrities, including but not limited to, Shahrukh Khan, Hrithik Roshan, Juhi Chawla, Kajol, Madhuri Dixit, Preity Zinta, Zayed Khan, Ritesh Deshmukh, Arshad Warsi, Sonu Nigam, Sukhwinder Singh, Saif Ali Khan, Akshay Kumar, Rani Mukherji, Shahid Kapoor, Shreya Ghoshal, Ranbir Kapoor, Rekha, Rupert Grint ... gods, I watch too many films.

I wrote parts of 3 of my stories on pixie stick driven sugar highs. Guess which! (Not like it'll be hard).
