Character meme

[lumy12]

fialleril gave me Palpatine (to ensure I would actually DO the meme, I'm sure <3). I'm going to attempt to keep my focus on the canon character and not my cracky RP version of him, even though one tends to bleed into the other at times.

1.) Do you like this character?
Yes! But only in the PT, when he's brilliantly plotting the demise of the Jedi whilst maintaining his kindly old man persona. He plays everyone so perfectly. In the OT he just sits back and cackles evilly. I'm not impressed!

2.) What name(s) do you call this character?
Palpatine, Palps, Palpy, Chancellor, Emperor. Add various first names in fic.

3.) What image / color do you associate with this character?
Fluffy bunnies and rainbows Um... I don't have one particular image. I suppose I prefer RotS!Palpatine so... pick a screencap? I'm actually quite fond of the photo in my icon here, too, from some photo shoot or another.

The color is easy - RED. The color of passion, of blood, of Sith blades!

4.) What song do you associate with this character?
Thanks to elledwen, George Michael's "Father Figure" will forever be his song. The lyrics only fit the crack version, though, so for canon... uh... I'll come back to this one.

...okay, I'm back. Did you miss me? I still got nuthin'. Metallica's "Am I Evil?" is now in my head, though! But I associate that one more with Anakin than with Palpatine. I think I'll write this question off as fail on my part.

5.) What blood type do you think this character is?
We are striking this question from the meme because wtf?

6.) From all of the titles that feature this character, what other character do you think makes a good pairing with this character?
Durrrrrrrr... Anakin Skywalker, of course! My OTP!

7.) What would you want to say to this character?
Do me I think I'd have to fall at his feet in awe of his brilliance, and beg him to have mercy on my pathetic fangirl soul. And probably apologize for butchering his character so thoroughly in RP.

8.) What do you want to do with this character?
Force him to tell me his mysterious backstory and that of his master!

9.) Please choose five friends with your choice of character.
If you want one, just say so in your comment. :)

LMAO @ 7.

I'll play again. Give me a character.

[lumy12.livejournal.com]

I'll stick with Star Wars. How about... Padme!

[lumy12.livejournal.com]

No cackling! lol

Yes, if I recognize his Supreme Awesomeness, he may go easy on me!

I don't suppose you want to do the meme again? *g*

I can feel how much it hurt you to stick to canon. Sometimes it can be so painful, eh?

There is currently a Star Wars marathon happening on Spike TV, by the way. ROTS is playing right now. But I am not watching it, for I too find canon painful.

I wanna play!!!

[lumy12.livejournal.com]

It was a bit painful, yeah. Gotta go lick my wounds!

Ohhh I should go put that on as background noise while I clean! (alas, I may never get out to the yard, tho...)

I'm tempted to give you Palpatine as well, but that somehow feels like cheating since I did him. Do Obi-Wan ♥

[zigsternenstaub.livejournal.com]

Do Obi-Wan ♥

There is a lot of sarcasm in that heart. I sense it. I KNOW it. Obi-Wan! You must be feeling very cruel today:(

I have another meme to do as well, so this shall go up later today or tomorrow with that.

You DID Palpatine???? I thought Palpy was into Anakin, not you?????

[amidala-thrace.livejournal.com]

Me me me! Pleeeease? (You know I can't resist a meme, LOL.)

[lumy12.livejournal.com]

Heeee! That you can't!

How about Bail Organa ~

[lumy12.livejournal.com]

O__O

What did you do to yourself?? (oh wait, I just asked you that on YOUR post too. You don't have to tell me twice ;) <333

Is that a cell phone? Like, that you'll be hooking up to your LJ so I can text it for free? I'm still allergic to phones, you see. Some things never change!

This is epic!win

Glad to read something about Palpy that isn't just "OMG HE IS TEH EBILS KILL HIM KILL HIM NAO" :D :D

Glad to read something about Palpy that isn't just "OMG HE IS TEH EBILS KILL HIM KILL HIM NAO" :D :D

That does appear to be the standard response, doesn't it? But there are a few of us out here who are quite fond of passionately love Palpatine;)

I WILL NEVER SAY THAT ABOUT PALPS. EVAR. 8|

Awww, don't be sad! *pets* Here, have a character. Let's see... how 'bout Luke?

I think I'd have to fall at his feet in awe of his brilliance, and beg him to have mercy on my pathetic fangirl soul.
That's a very funny image. :p

[lumy12.livejournal.com]

Hee! Well what else is a fangirl to do???

[darkp-hawk.livejournal.com]

I might as well do this. What character do you have for me?

[lumy12.livejournal.com]

Yay! I won't make you do Star Wars since I know that's not your bag. Hmmmm, I could ask you to do one of your RP girls, or the only fandom I think we have in common - Heroes. Okay, you can choose (or do both?)

Heroes: HRG. He doesn't get enough love. And actually I have no idea how you feel about him so that would be interesting to read.

RP: Um... Anju, since she's the closest to my characters CR-wise!

I saw RotJ on DVD last night and noticed "something", you know . . . *smirks*

Doesn't he look a little . . . well, "womanish" in RotJ ? - especially, where he steps down from where he is sitting and approaches Luke and looks in the younger man's eyes and speaks ? And this Palpy DOES look greatly "different" at some scenes, like . . . at one point, he looks like some kind of half-human/half-animal, but at other scenes, he's almost good-looking that he could even pass for a very handsome, old woman. :P

[lumy12.livejournal.com]

Well, it WAS a woman playing the Emperor originally... but I think that was just in ESB? I don't remember for sure. But Palps does have a feminine air about him sometimes!

[imaginaryalice.livejournal.com]

This is a fun meme! Palpy FTW :)
(Blood type is a common thing in anime?)

I will take a character.

[lumy12.livejournal.com]

Yessssssssss!

How about Leia Organa, I know you'll do her justice :)

[darkp-hawk.livejournal.com]

The blood type thing is like a horoscope reading. It's like asking "what is your sign?".
