Purely out of interest-

I was wondering about some of the usernames people have chosen for their characters. I mean, some of them are pretty obvious ([livejournal.com profile] green_eyed_luck and [livejournal.com profile] pjpettigrew, for instance). Then again, they might only be obvious to those of us involved in the fandom in question. Anyone care to explain? Indulge me. *g*

I second that. I'm not sure about many of the names. And for those who don't know my character, Tonks is very clumsy, and she's an auror (read: policewoman, or "soldier-witch," as Crowley likes to say).

And Nny...did the angel leave Tonks? How sad. She'll just have to go be comforted by big, strong, Charlie Weasley... ;)(And I have no idea who's playing him.)

ROFL...I KNEW it was you! Well, that's excellent. I don't know how you're doing it, though...how many is this, now?

(and it's all right. Tonks is now more than a little squiffy and enjoying the present company very much.)

Thirded.

A lot of them are rather easy, but only if you're in the fandom. Then again, I don't know anyone who wouldn't get [livejournal.com profile] aj_crowley.

For mine, Luna's rather spacey and a bit crazy in school (Hogwarts) and the kind, decent children nicknamed her 'Loony' Lovegood. She knows, and really doesn't get all that het up about it ("They call me Loony, you know.").

Mine is another name for Regulus' star.

I know, and you all have superior RP-ing skills to mine. I bow before the feet of the Masters.

It's a bit like Superman, though, isn't it? You never see the Lady and the Angel together in the same room...or do you? (insert creepy music here)

I honestly cannot understand how people can maintain more than one character in this place without becoming totally schizophrenic.

I scream, you scream, "weallscream" for ice cream! Yay!

Exactly my problem. Especially if your characters were really, really different. Like Aziraphale, and...anybody. *grins*

Mine's simple: desire was taken.

Didn't feel like making _desire (or any variation free), and after consulting with a friend, decided on true_desire.

All righty then.
[livejournal.com profile] otherwhiterider: For those who haven't read Good Omens yet... first of all, what are you waiting for?! Secondly, Pestilence's part in the book is roughly once sentence, where it's mentioned that he retired in 1936 due to penicillin. I created the LJ last year for [livejournal.com profile] buggreallethis under the reasoning that there's no way Hell would let him off permanently - besides, with AIDS and all going, he's got to be out there somewhere. The LJ name is a bad play off those 'pork: the other white meat' commercials. (Pollution is his replacement, for the record.)
[livejournal.com profile] artsmartscarlet: I had the HARDEST time coming up with an LJ name for this girl, but then fandom saved my arse. More specifically, it's a nickname she gets in The Look-Alike Series, that being the stuff that got me writing fanfic. (It was a lot shorter back in those days; very good reading, if y'all can pull yourselves away from the RP long enough. XD) If memory serves, it's first used in 'And Then There Were Four.'

Oh, they totally sound different. Your Charlie is so IC that I'm literally a puddle over here. But everybody has a certain formatting style, and you were so good that I figured it had to be one of the regulars. [/flattery]

It helped that I was carrying on two conversations with you at once. It just made me wonder, that's all. :)

Practice. I've got two characters in [livejournal.com profile] discworld_rpg as well.

*blushes for five thousandth time tonight, between she and Tonks* Gee, thanks. :)

Ysssss. Because now Tonks and Aziraphale can have their sweet, platonic whatever, and Tonks and Charlie can...*ahem* Well. Whatever happens, happens, I say.

(and seriously, who doesn't love the Weasley boys? All of them. Loff.)

I've got to be heading to bed very soonly. Shall we wrap up the Tonks/Charlie thread?

*dies laughing* Well, let me just say THANK YOU on behalf of Tonks' poor libido. I was starting to think it would only be unrequited gay-angel type love for her. THANK YOU. *throws rose petals*
