What's your character's ideal destination for a three-day weekend?

I just realized that oh yes, this will be a three-day weekend for some people. I have too much to do to have any time off. Next weekend and all of this coming week after Tuesday will be mine with some work too.

Will's would be a happier Nottingham.

Sameth, I think he'd just like to spend three days with Kait and he doesn't care where as long as she's happy.

Jane's would be London with Tom.

Moist wants to go to Ankh-Morpork.

William would just like to see a big city, he doesn't care which one and maybe the sea.

Demeter is happy to be at home with her daughter and one of her lovers.

Tumnus doesn't need to go anywhere, he's quite happy in Narnia.

The Pirate King would choose Penzance.

Hehe beat me to it by a minute or so...

Ben Grimm's is Puerto Rico. Ult. Ben Grimm's once would have been Spring Break in Florida or Mardi Gras in New Orleans but now it would be his home in Queens, NY.

Jessica Drew would spend it in the Bahamas and Val's would be the Blue Area of the Moon, especially if she could have access to the Watcher's library.

Rincewind will take any place that is quiet and boring. Artemus loves San Francisco or New York City.

Jenks' life is a three day weekend but Barbie would love to visit home in Willows, Wisconsin.

Thalia says the Arizona territory would be interesting to see.

Mike would be partial to some place with sun, surf, and sand. And if that place had any sort of Night Life, all the better.

Raph? I think anywhere he could go with Abigail would work for him. Though, the warmer the better. He doesn't like to be cold either.

Ida's perfect three day weekend involves being as far from Wendy Watson as possible.

There isn't one specific place that comes to mind for Scorpius. Because anywhere that there is lots to do and see during the day, but, ideally, where he can get away at night so that he can lay out and all he'd be able to see are the stars is good by him.

As of now though, he really only gets to visit Hogsmeade on select weekends. Which, y'know, is great, but he'd get away from Hogwarts if he could. Maybe I'll send him somewhere nice for his summer hols with his friends.

Castiel: "I do not understand. What is the significance of a three day weekend?"

Parker: "A beach. Please. Somewhere in the Caribbean. White sand, palm trees, cool water. And a masseuse who makes house calls."

Luna: "If I could go anywhere? Hmmm. Diagon Alley might be nice. Dad and I could visit with Mr. & Mrs. Cook and the twins. Or Sweden. There have been some Snorkack sightings in Sweden this spring. Or maybe Minnesota. There's supposed to be a statue in a town in Minnesota of a green giant. I believe he's meant to scare Muggle children into eating vegetables, but he may really be a representation of a lost race of giants that tried to use magic to camouflage themselves, to compensate for their size."

No three-day weekend for me, but the week after next is Golden Week. \o/

Data: Probably some sort of scientific exploration. The 'droid hardly knows the difference between work and play, for srs.

Lore: He hates the concept of breaks, and downtime, and so consequently three day weekends have little meaning for him. But it'd be nice to get away from people.

Rosalie: Somewhere in the world she's never been, or somewhere she hasn't been recently. Paris is an old favorite, though.

Eiji: Depends on the time of year. Around now he'd probably most enjoy a tennis camp of some sort, since he's gearing up for the season. During summer, though, he'd probably prefer Okinawa or something-- somewhere with a beach.

(And a selection of MM peeps:)

Julia: Like Lore, she's not interested in breaks.

Augusta: Switzerland.

Julian: A short voyage out to sea.

Frederick: Paris, maybe.

What's Golden Week, it sounds like a lot of fun.

[identity profile] mm-spinelstar.livejournal.com 2011-04-21 05:58 pm (UTC)(link)
It's just a week in which three days in a row-- Tues, Wed, Thurs-- are national holidays. A lot of Japanese people take Mon and Fri off as well so they have a full week for a vacation. I won't be doing that, but the three days off will be so nice. ^__^

Oh that sounds lovely. Also in random thoughts, if Julian would like to see the sea, Tiwa says he's welcome to visit New Zealand.

That would be fabulous~ >.> We should totally do a thread like that sometime. ♥

She-Hulk's would be somewhere tropical where she's the only woman on a beach filled with gorgeous men surfing, playing volleyball, and giving her suntan lotion rubdowns without having to ask. (And bringing her drinks without asking.) Jen is ALL FOR the female gaze unchained.

Lockjaw's idea of a vacation is the Shi'ar homeworld where, for reasons that shall remain secret, he is considered royalty. He likes the food there the best and Majestrix Lilandra feeds him at the royal table and arranges her retinue to throw giant balls for him when he feels the need to run around. He makes a game out of chasing members of the royal guard.

Siryn's idea of a vacation is to go back home to Ireland and visit Cassidy Keep. It wouldn't necessarily be fun because the place is filled with both sad memories and happy ones from her childhood. Terry's got a complex personality - sometimes she runs from her past, and sometimes she embraces it. But Cassidy Keep is beautiful, so she'd want to go just as the fuchsias come into bloom.

Kendra's idea of a vacation is a week of doing nothing but visiting museums of all kinds.

Black Mamba's idea of a vacation involves a quiet week spent in her bathrobe, a stack of foreign films to watch, and plenty of Ben and Jerry's.

I think I want to see a Marvel Girls vacation in the tropics now. I can see it as a Lady Liberators reunion.

Gene would say his normal holiday destination - Lytham St-Annes. Or...OK, no he wouldn't. Dirty weekend in Blackpool is what he'd say. It wouldn't occur to him to wish for something more exotic.

And my new boy (ugh, I cannot believe I succumbed to the same-PB temptation, but it had to be done)...my new boy, Quinn, says that a holiday with three old college mates would be great. Just so happens, the fifth member of their old gang has a villa in Majorca. Lovely.

...wait. *watches it all go massively, MASSIVELY pear-shaped*

Oops. Shit. :\

Hee, I've done that once but its so much fun. I can't wait to see the new guy around.

Just couldn't stop myself! New guy's canon threw a curveball at the last minute, and I couldn't resist. *glee* I do enjoy when that happens. Hopefully I'll get him in sometime next week.

Paris. Definitely Paris.

Enzo tells me he'd like to head back to Chile with Dani, but I suspect he'd be happy with somewhere similarly coastal but not quite so close to the equator. When Enzo's human, he sweats like a horse.

Clem's always wanted to travel the world and would love to go to France, but right at the moment all roads lead to Sam, so she'd go to Miami with him.
