From cupenny:

If your char did have a LJ, what would they post to it? (or, write your tag as a (short!) post they're writing to their LJ.)

Ahaha. Hahaha. Mal's will be below. >D

Comments

[innerbrat]

Mel wouldn't. She'd have one of those default style never-updated Livejournals that she got once 'cause everyone had one, and forgot about it from there on in.

Today I am wearing stockings, just FYI

[muji]

*approves on both counts* Are they fancy shmancy?

[timjr.livejournal.com]

Barney's Blog (http://www.cbs.com/primetime/how_i_met_your_mother/community/barney_blog/index.php).

A-hem.

[muji]

*snicker* Your canon is so helpful!

[kotorjedi-amaya.livejournal.com]

Well, Chell and Barney Calhoun wouldn't really have time to post to any sort of blog, but if they did, Chell's would be rants about GLaDOS and the G-man, and Barney would've probably blogged about his time undercover in the Metrocop 'police force.'

Dr. Vattic would write deep entries expounding on WHAT THE HELL IS HAPPENING IN MY HEAD.

Teddy, being a teen, probably does blog about superhero things... we've kind of established that Billy blogged about Teddy before they were together, and I think Teddy blogged about Billy too.

The Heavy... might actually be fun to do LJ posts for him. Haha.

[muji]

Well Chell totally has better things to do!

[muji]

Mal's lj name first off would be something completely boring: captainreynolds or something. Maybe harbatkin if the Alliance were patrolling to Cortex/internets. He does keep a journal millicanonically, but mostly that happened because I thought emailed OOM journal entries would be the only way I could keep Mal up when I was in France for awhile. Anywho -- LJ post!



DON'T JUDGE ME, OKAY?

[weaverandom.livejournal.com]

Judge you, I think I love you.

[muji]

Oh, you wanted to know about everyone else?

I've actually registered a Twitter for SARAH, because she would be much more inclined towards that than LJ, Sallie wouldn't use one because the internets are for losers (Sorry, Sam), and Ned...I dunno. Hunh.

Let's pretend like I still play often enough to join this meme.

[weaverandom.livejournal.com]

Steph needs a Twitter, not an LJ, because she never stops blogging in her head.




Blogger born. I should really play with that more. I bet she's got masses of journals stuffed under her bed upstairs.

Re: Let's pretend like I still play often enough to join this meme.

[muji]

You get that a lot in comics, or is it a peculiarity?

[rowanberries.livejournal.com]

Ooo! Good question. I think Havelock's LJ would look like a very normal journal, just casual comments on what he did that day - and then there's be thousands of privated posts, with like evil plots and theses on social and political issues, and notes on people he might need to kill or blackmail in the future in it.

Shelley would posts every single meme that came her way, and would babble incessantly about every little thing.

Nico's is long abandoned, but is full of angsty goth poetry.

Harth writes disturbing posts about Mel just to freak out whoever comes across it. They will also be true, but that'd be why they were written down.

[muji]

Oh Harth. <3.

[bluespells.livejournal.com]

Blogging is something Tony Stark did, once upon a time, that Steve vaguely remembers disapproving of. Which is a roundabout way of saying that he doesn't blog. Provided he mastered the tech and posted a blog, he would post art and occasional political commentary. I hope that he does not get addicted, because that would make fifteen years in the sixteen hundreds kind of a bitch.

Billy used his to document his stalking talk about his crush on Teddy pre-canon, and whining sticking it to the man re: his suspension and subsequent court hearings. Also precanon he follows superheroes around and posts the pictures/things he manages to find out. Spider-man probably knew him by name. During canon he's way to busy to update it.

[muji]

Wait.

Tony Stark blog?

[sdelmonte]

Knox would NEVER keep a blog on his own. He's paid to write, and at most would consider doing a blog on his newspaper's website. And even then, I think he is still too much a man of his time to adapt that quickly to blogging.

I think that Charlie, having been a somewhat more unconventional reporter than Knox, and on TV, would probably have gladly expanded his efforts to the Net, with or without his boss' consent. I think that he would have probably used that same ethos even years after he'd quit being a reporter, perhaps posting anonymously about certain things to see who reacted and how. He might have even posted about conspiracies (though not with the same fervor that the animated version of the character would have). His personal life, though, would have been left on the sidelines.

Gibbs is so far removed from the computer age that I can't imagine it. I do think, however, that once he mastered written English, he will keep a diary of weather details and vague personal and professional data.

Dean O'Dell probably abhorred blogs with the passion only a 60 year old college dean could.

Kirk kept a log for ages, and I think that its canonical contents are pretty much the sort of thing he would have posted any place about himself.

[muji]

Kirk: Blogging since...when is it set? 23rd century or 24th?

[ashen_key]

Medusa: (mycursedface) ....Um. Hm. Assuming that she has the TIME...cooking. A lot of it, actually. Interspaced with rambles about the latest book she's read, occasional bitching about the markets of Zili/Asilah/whatever-they-are-calling-it-in-that-time, and sometimes long, thoughtful posts about politics and the state of Islam.

Kore (sixlittleseeds): She's the personification of Girldom, an ADD child of nature who manages to be more straightlaced than her mother as well as believing that weeding is vaguely immoral and that if the other plants can't fight back, it's their loss, who is unable to see her dearly beloved husband.

I'll let you all fill in the blanks here.

Persephone (sixlittleseeds): Um. Probably more of a lurker to other journals, but probably some rambling about pottery, photography and, yes, gardening. Everything else she wouldn't write about.

Dara (playsbothsides) would use hers (I think she'd have a proper blog-blog rather than an LJ, but anyway) as an annoymous insider blog, making cutting remarks and analyzing the Courts of Chaos and Amber, as well as a providing a side-dish of gossip and driving everyone mad, including her son the King of Chaos. It would be grand.

Esfir (aimedforthemoon): Probably keep it as more of a log than anything else - training sessions, notes to self, scores, temperature if she's dirtside. Thoughts on books/concepts she's read. Maybe sometimes flocked entries of a more personal matter. Maybe.

Marlowe (no_sin_but): plot ideas, poetry, wonderfully eloquent, passionate discourses (i.e. rants) on society/religion/state of humanity/people mistreat books. Also, would enthuse muchly on the state of learning, and would have many, long posts on his interest of the day/week/hour. A bit like kali921, actually.

John Aversin (loreofpigs): science and geek babble. Lots of. Probably incoherent.

And...my other three characters, I need to have one deleted, and decide what the hell to do with the other two. Also, I can't sleep. Stupid, addicting, awesome novel of awesomeness. I could have read Marxism Since Marx, and gone to sleep at a sensible time. But, nooooooooooooooooooo.

[aimedforthemoon]

Admittedly, Esfir's current post could be summed up as 'Going to Han's universe. EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE'

(with a side note of 'sorry, Owen, the regular sex will have to become irregular, and Cal, don't you dare stop running')

..Because I play enough to do DEs, rly!

[cassildra.livejournal.com]

Faye would write long, introspective entries and private-lock those, and then prattle about her day and mock Pintsize in her unlocked entries.

Natalie wouldn't have one. She's too busy keeping an eye on Monk.

The FSM's would be full of drunken posts and talking about hot chicks he's admired from afar. He'd also talk about interesting things he's encountered in bar.

Aika's would be the typical girly journal, full of "omg [guy that's not one of the ones mentioned in SoA canon] is so cute!!~", kitten macros, and battle stats. Also, lots of memes.

[isaysimplewords]

Cal: Angst. And then angst and some angst, followed by angst. Most of it would be locked to private, with only lighter entries about the goings-on in Milliways or whatever open to the public.

(Seriously, I thought it would be a bit rough to have my main character indisposed for however long, but it turns that I needed a break from the angst, too.)

Dorothy Jane: Lots of long entries about romance, boys, her favorite old novels, her favorite old movies, some poetry . . . Dorothy Jane was born to blog, actually. Too bad she won't get the internet until adulthood.

Alan: Entries about normal life stuff, like work and Maria, interspersed with entries about aliens. The alien entries will probably be friendslocked, since he does work in IT and it wouldn't be too hard for his employers to track down his LJ.

[ashen_key]

(Seriously, I thought it would be a bit rough to have my main character indisposed for however long, but it turns that I needed a break from the angst, too.)

It does get like that, sometimes.

[iambetadraconis]

Gosh. Tricky question.

Rabastan would be one of those infrequent bloggers.
Strength and Wheel would have blogs dating back to the 9th century [seriously].
Rad would be rating weaponry in-between updates on amateur science.
Starscream would be private-only [because you don't want them to know what you're scheming about].
Zeke can't write, so it'd be thousand-monkeys-with-a-thousand-typewriters, and if Emile ever learned how to write, it'd be about the joys of freegan eating [and a one-to-ten scale of digestibility for non-edibles].
BlackWarGreymon would just destroy every keyboard set before him—you'd have to get him a voice-activated blog.
Matrix and Unicron probably wouldn't bother with the whole blog thing [because it'd be rather boring for our poor renegade, and Unicron would think it pointless because there wouldn't be anyone left to read it he ever got his way, anyways].



[I wonder if anyone ever IC-ly answered any of those Writer's Block prompts you see on LJ's main page. Now that would be fun.]

[a1enzo]

*snicker* Okay, we need a Unicron blog. Just because.

[withherhands]

Heh. Jack would not have one, which is probably why I've never considered apping him to any RP that uses that format for posts/prompts. For one thing, he'd view it as a waste of time, as it would seem like unnecessary navel-gazing, and because he doesn't want to think about the sort of things he should be working through on paper or on the computer screen.

The other major thing is that if it was in an online journal with all the entries marked "private", he'd still be way too paranoid about someone actually getting access to it and reading his thoughts. Which, considering the people he knows--even his friends/loved ones--is pretty reasonable, as a number of them have enough computer skills to probably hack into his journal in 90 seconds.

About the only way I could ever see him keeping a journal is if a therapist (who he'd be forced to go see in the first place) goaded him into doing it.

Though actually, I think if he tried it for long enough, he might actually sorta like it. Though I've had the crackheaded idea of Jack working out some of his issues by writing suspense fiction. :D

[muji]

MOAR JACK-MAL PLS?

[leeshajoy.livejournal.com]

I can't see Bob having the patience for blogging. He'd write two entries about Dot and the baby, and then he'd get distracted by something else and never update again.

Dominic, on the other hand, would write daily, detailed posts about what he'd done that day, cross-referenced to other entries and carefully friendslocked so that nobody read anything they shouldn't.

Artie's public posts would be long, involved rants about the government, big business, the environment, et cetera. His private and friendslocked posts? WALL-TO-WALL EXISTENTIAL ANGST.

Alyx would never have anything as public as a blog--too much risk that the Combine would see it and use the information against her. I could see D0G having a Twitter feed, though.

[a1enzo]

I could see D0G having a Twitter feed, though.

Examples, please!

[pheliskougra]

7twistedwishes Journal Entry 10/08/2008 - Still Here.

Mood: Cranky

Music: Winds of Plague - A Cold Day In Hell

"Hahahaha. Not that I can leave anyway, not in person. Still freaking cold in the 9th circle 7th level, seriously. When I see people complaining about the snow, I feel like sending more to bury them. Another eleven inches scheduled for tomorrow, then you will see what is cold. Whiny bitches. At least I can have my computer hideously overclocked and never worry about overheating. Now, seriously, Avatar #37 was at Milliways again, when this total hunk walks in... I wrote about him already, wheelsy_sheriff Bill Pardy. I have to make a move soon, but playing with him is way too fun..."

[agoodshinkickin.livejournal.com]

If Donny would let Mike anywhere near a computer Mike would totally have logins for EVERY SINGLE SOCIAL NETWORKING SITE ever. They'd all have the same name and password combo, and he'd never update any of them because his attention span doesn't work like that.

I could see him liking Twitter the most though, because it appeals to his sense of "I HAVE CRAZY IDEAS, LET ME SHOW YOU THEM!"

Though, I wouldn't put it past him to have a FanFiction dot Net account where he writes his romance/high adventure novels. As for why they're on FFdNet? Because they're mostly about Milli-patrons.

Again, if Donny would let Raph anywhere near a computer Raph might have an LJ to troll around the net with. Maybe use it to keep track of his weight training. More likely than not he'd break a keyboard or two when LJ would accidentally eat an entry he'd spent an hour or so hunting and pecking out. Raph doesn't type well.

I have this great mental image of Raph losing one entry too many, suiting up, and going on a Board of Directors hunt.

[austen.livejournal.com]

Ahaha, this is pretty great.

I'm sure Pam would be the one most likely to have a LJ. I mean, sitting behind a desk for eight hours a day? What else is she going to do besides write about all the crazy hijinks going on (and IM Jim?) Jenna Fischer keeps a Myspace blog that she likes to update whenever she's in the background in a scene but needs to look like she's working.

Izzie... probably not so much. If she did, she'd only update once in a while and they would be short, non-specific entries if there were people reading them. If they were private, she'd go more into detail.

Emily: Well, dead people can't do much writing, can they? I'm sure she kept a paper journal of some kind when she was alive that somehow just got lost in storage and disappeared after she died.

Penny: I'm sure she doesn't have time to write. I bet she'd have a Twitter, though.

[wakeupnew]

Jenna Fischer keeps a Myspace blog that she likes to update whenever she's in the background in a scene but needs to look like she's working.

That is ADORABLE.

[misslucyjane]

Ianto: it's canon that he keeps a handwritten diary. If he'd keep an online one . . . morethanteaboy in elsegame.. Some favorites: the kid!crack event, explaining Lisa, OMG WE'RE GETTING MARRIED, dealing with Jack's death and Internet Practices for the Beginning Blogger. It's wildly AU, of course, but thus is the nature of roleplay.

1941!Jack would find blogging a bit pointless, though I can easily see him keeping a handwritten diary.

GreenJack would post a lot of pictures of his children and memes, and occasional rants about politics. He'd also have a Deviantart account for his drawings, and quite probably try out every new gadget that came along until he got bored.

[sliceitwithwind.livejournal.com]

Jan. 5: Still exist
Feb. 5: Still exist
Mar. 5: Still exist
April 5: Still exist
May 5: Still exist

and on, and on, for ten years.

[mm_madb]

I was going to do this. I was. And then I found out that someone who has known my parents since about 1975 and became my friend in my own right, is in the hospital with some kind of cyclic dementia that might be diabetes, might be water on the brain, and might be brain cancer.

[genarti]

River had that whole fugitive thing that means an online journal would've been a bad idea for a while there. I actually don't think she'd post much, though. I think she'd come up with long-winded posts, mostly about math or whatever, and then delete or private-lock them in frustration when she wasn't sure if she was saying what she meant.

...I bet somewhere there's an old FFverse equivalent from when she was fourteen, though. The last post is something like "Off to the Academy tomorrow! I'm SO EXCITED. I've been all packed for two days -- my parents' fault; I think they're more nervous than even I am -- but I keep double-checking anyway. Don't know how much I'll get to write, because the program should be pretty busy, but I'll check in! Love you all!"

Yeah.

Lan would either have none, or he'd just occasionally put up restrained posts about history and news and current events, and quote poetry. Mostly he'd use it to lurk and monitor, though.

Piotr would never get around to updating his. Unless it was for someone specific, like his parents back when they were alive, or a good friend who moved away or something. Then he'd put up friendslocked posts that were essentially "here's what's going on in my life with certain details removed" letters.

Regan wouldn't have a personal one. She might have a professional sort of blog, if she had time for it.

Trowa would never post. He'd just use his to lurk on his friends' journals. But he'd have at least six sock puppets.

[ostro_goth]

The one thing that Teja would blog about is his forge-work. He'd have long and detailed picture posts of every single thing he makes, abounding with technical details -- more the finished product than the process, but some of that as well. He'd not expect anybody to ever read it, and only point people to particular posts to show them what their own finished commission might look like.-

[moofoot.livejournal.com]

I would say Han would keep logs of certain things, but then he's looking at me wondering why he'd post these things on the 'internet' for everyone to see, so it would probably be rarely-if-ever updated. Athos and Diego wouldn't keep them at all. Dan might be keeping a paper one upstairs. The same goes with my new pup, Hitch, he's probably got a paper one lying around.

I don't even see Doc, who would be the most likely to have a 'blog' of sorts, keeping an LJ. He's all about pen on paper and having things in hard copy, but oh does he have journals. Most of them are just records, dates, times, etc. But there are stories too. And poetry. :D

[batyatoon]

I think the only one of my pups likely to have a blog is Andrew, but he's almost certain to have one. At the moment I'm not sure what he writes in it, though -- aside from posting every so often to demonology LJ comms.

Millicanonically, he does of course keep a written journal of his own. But with a very very few exceptions, he doesn't show it to people.
