Good morning, Milliways! I am sleepy, and I am just a little bit not completely here today, so Daily Entertainment is piggybacking off of yesterday's.

Everyone has that one person who in the back of their head they're hoping to see come in the door. Who is that for your character? Is it someone from their world, or is it someone from somewhere else entirely?

For example, Helena is still hoping somehow that Christina will show up in Milliways.

Ichabod: From his current life, Abbie so he can explain it to her (although he's deeply hoping Katrina will come back, always). From his previous life, Arthur Bernard, because he hasn't forgiven himself yet.

Giovanni: Francesca, but she's already been there, or his mother.

Sharpe: Is more difficult. It's a toss-up between Teresa, his first great love, Lucille, his last, or Antonia, the daughter he'll never see again.

Harry: Betty. Hands down.

Nancy: No-one. She has no one she wants who she can't see at home.

Jonathan: Not sure. Maybe anyone from Sunnydale High.

Michael: His parents, maybe? Or Harry.

Roshaun: Dairine, since this iteration doesn't know she's been here before.

Norrington: If anyone, his father.

Gavroche: It used to be Eponine, but she's here now, so Courfeyrac would probably be his next greatest wish.

Kirk: Edith Keeler. Maybe his son. Maybe his parents. Abe Lincoln (Lego Abe Lincoln doesn't count).

Cyborg: His mom. Sarasim.

Charlie: Myra Fermin. Tot Rodor. Ted Kord. Ollie Queen and Dinah Lance.

Alanna: George. Definitely always George. Or her mother, Marinine, though she wouldn't know her by sight.

Grace: Her deceased sister Mary Francis.

Elizabeth: She has made her peace with her father's passing, so I think her mother.

Thayet: Also her mother, Kalasin.

Jim: His dad, Henry Craig.

(I'm sensing a theme.)

Karou: That's a tough one. I think Zuzana is who she really wants to share Milliways with, but that would mean having to explain far too much about her life and Karou knows that doing so might cost her their friendship altogether. (Good news, Karou! This will change!) So in lieu of Zuzana, she'd be very happy to see Issa.

I wouldn't wish this on Tommy because it would break the both of us, but he would most want to see his cousin Jimmy and his son Connor, both alive, not ghosts.

Thor: Loki. Hands down, Loki. (He might regret this if it actually happened, but right now he's in the time where Loki is missing presumed dead in the void.)

Enjolras: Any of his friends. Combeferre especially, but really any of them.

River: Shepherd Book, but only if he wanted to come. Her old Academy friend Maggie (who never will because she's an OC.) For a long while, it was Roland Deschain.

Regan: Hmmm. Some friends or relatives of her younger days, I think, who are either dead or fallen out of contact long ago. She wouldn't actually wish Milliways on any of her current friends, or the explanations on herself; she compartmentalizes it.

Clare: Raki. Then she'd have Teresa and Raki in one place and he'd be safe from yoma.

Trowa: Well, Wufei and Heero, although he's in contact with both in his world and Heero did use to come here frequently. Other than that, not sure. Maybe Une, although that's not so much 'hoping' as 'sort of expect it to happen someday, unless it doesn't.'

There's no one from Elle's world she'd particularly like to see, though she does sometimes miss Jamie.

Asami, at the moment, wishes her father could reach this place so she wouldn't have to lie to him about it. And being Bound is the longest she's gone without speaking to him in... a long time, at least.

Katara's heart would like for her to see her mother again, even if her mind is telling her that this would be more painful than anything else.

Not at the moment, but later on Hiccup will probably wish Astrid could be there.

Leslie does wish Ben could reach the bar, as he'd think it was amazing. There are also a bunch of 'fictional' people she would like to meet, though it'd be weirder knowing she can't canon-puncture them. And also historical famous people in her world. Now I'm trying to remember if she's canonically answered that 'if you could have dinner with' question.

I can't think of anyone in particular for Marceline or Manny, who will roll with whatever. (I guess Manny would say Meche, but her being here doesn't necessarily help them that much at the moment.) And Will's view of the Bar is way too messed up to properly answer this question.

Mark thinks it would be awesome for Eve to walk through the Door, that it would be kind of awesome for William to walk through the Door, it would be not so awesome for Nolan to walk through the Door, and he's absolutely terrified that Agent Cecil Stedman will teleport into the Bar one day. (Though he kinda wants to see what happens with the MIBs come face to face with his boss. It probably won't be as entertaining as he hopes it would be, though.)

Sherral would like it if one of his siblings showed up in Milliways, he tends not to see them for years at a time. Alternatively, if Judge Magister Zecht showed up, he'd be overjoyed at the opportunity to kill him without repercussions back home.

Jessica: Lindsey McCabe would be awesome.

Andrea Nash: Kate Daniels, please.

Hank McCoy: Einstein? I'm not familiar enough with the SciFi books of his time period to think of a fictional hero he'd love to meet.

Val: Her mom and dad would be nice. Baring them, Dazzler!

Mulan: Aurora or Belle.

Quinlan: Obi-wan. It'd be nice to see that old sour puss.

I can't think of anyone for Brimstone since Karou is already here.

Same with Anton. Can he request the Boss or his counter part not come?

Hmm. She should probably stay from the original Alan Moore stories then. I think she'd be less than pleased with his deconstructions. I dare say that H. Rider Haggard or Robert Louis Stevenson would want him beaten soundly, for his treatment of Quartermain and Hyde.

Upon further reflection, I think Jess would love to meet Buffy Summers. I've developing a head canon that Jess *LOVES* monster films (due to rereading the weird story arcs from her first solo series) and would be all over the idea of Buffy.

Ace: Her Doctor. Sure, she fully understands that they're all the Doctor, and she ought not differentiate... but her partner in crime for years had horrible taste in pullovers and rolled his r's to get her to smile and could act like an absolute idiot and then destroy governments with a few calmly placed words. She misses him.

Katya: Bear. Full stop. And that meeting would be So Awkward. So awkward.

Simmons: ... the list of scientists that come up for this is ridiculous.

William: Lord Nelson... but then he'd have a hard time actually striking up a conversation, because it's Lord Nelson.

Bones: His daughter.

Clara/Oswin: Her mum.

Glorfindel: King Turgon - he was unbelievably disappointed that Turgon was not re-embodied in that short period of time he was in Aman before returning to Middle Earth.

Sam: ... actually? No one.

Teja: wants to see Totila, has given up hope by now. Having Totila around would, however, completely upset the life and balance that he's made for himself in Milliways as he'd immediately try and transform himself back into the Teja that Totila knew and trusted.

Father Harman: too new to even think about it. Any one of his team would be very welcome, of course, first and foremost Angie.

Hannibal: of course, he would enjoy seeing his sister Mischa around, especially if that means she could pull a Gavroche and he could see her grow up and come into her full potential. But as Hannibal is very meta, he would like to see some people he regards as fictional so he can try his hand at them, after all the enjoyment he is finding in Javert. It would be fun to see what he could do with, say, Hamlet. Or Cyrano de Bergerac. Or Heathcliffe. Or Dorian Gray. Or Norman Bates. Or any darkly conflicted person from a classic canon he knows, really.

Tamara: more mermaids, as mermaids like to hunt in groups.

Lorenzo: Lisa, as she's the only one of his friends never coming here.

Oh God, Hannibal and the young Norman from Bates Motel would be terrifying.

Young Norman from 'Bates Motel' or classical Norman from the original 'Psycho' (not the sequels) -- Hannibal would have a ball!! Awww the cute little crazy killer! Hannibal would have the time of his life, 'helping' him and unkinking him in some areas just to make him more terrifyingly effective in most others...

For modern!Natasha? Alex a.k.a. "the Winter Soldier". Someone feels incredibly guilty of how Things Ended Up Going Down. Except Things Are Also Slightly Awk And Full of Implications, so equally, she hopes he never turns up.

*evil laughter*

For past!Nataliya...hmmm. Ivan Petrovich, I think. She cannot even cope with the idea of her (dead) parents or (dead) husband turning up, but Uncle Vanya would be nice.

Cata: That was Sam, for a while, but then he turned up. Now there really isn't anyone though she'll take as much boyfriend time as she can get.

Sam: If Arcie or Kaylana showed up he could explain Milliways to them, but he can also see them when he's at home. For people that he can't, either his mother or Blackmail, as he didn't really get to have a proper conversation with either in life.

Claudia: Used to be Joshua, but now he's here and that's cool. These days I'm not sure who she'd say, though the opportunity to meet Steve's sister would be neat.

Apollo: Geoff Chaucer's mum. He misses her more than most of his conquests. Also Artemis - his Artemis, not the not!sister that already comes here.

Imp: Susan. They need to talk.

Regulus: Sirius though that can't happen and if it could, I'd understand the James-and-Lily contingent wanting him available in their 'verse, so that'd just be a nasty fight all around; it's better this way or Narcissa.

Red: Well, Peter's here now, which she hadn't dared hope for, and Snow knew about Milliways before she did. I don't know that that'd leave anyone, and right now I'm not sure she wants her grandmother around.
(Ruby, post-curse-breaking: Belle and Dr. Whale, hands down.)

Woolly: ...I don't know that there is anyone, seeing as Helena beat him here. Maybe his little sister.

Will-anyone from his world, Little John and Robin would be best but it won't happen as his version of his world kind of lives in my head.

Charles-More Erik at this point and at later points in canon, Erik will be complicated but yeah. *pats him*

Ivan-He kind of wants and doesn't want Miles to appear, it would be comforting if he was around and sort of make more sense to Ivan. Not Simon or his mother and he needs to connect with Cordelia in Bar and Simon too.

William-No one, he would like it if Mark could but then he'd have more to worry about him. He wishes his mother and his father could connect.

Moist-No one, but especially not Vimes.

Jane-She wants Tom to come back, it would hurt but Tom.

Sameth-Ellimere, she would like it and maybe his father and he's like to see Kait around while he's wishing. *pats him*

Demeter-No one.

Tumnus-Lucy

The Pirate King-Ruth

I'm having good interviews but also feel so tightly wound. I might go and hide in a café and read before going back to my hotel.

Sariel: she still hopes Gene roe (the one she knew, not another universe's version) will walk back in. she misses him. she knows Seymour Krelborn isn't coming back; that still hurts, but she's gotten used to it. Dale Harding, because she worries about him.

Otherwise, members of her Enterprise's crew - sonya, Lian, Emily, Commander La Forge, commander Riker - although she knows full well if they show up she'll have a lot of explaining to do, both on a personal and on a theoretical and practical level. Her parents. Maybe Commander Darin... hmm.

Mary: Right now? Nobody, really. This is where she comes to get away from everyone in her world.

Jim: Bart. Meeting Mr. Brooks is too terrifying a possibility to contemplate.

Leela: The Doctor. Or any one of her dead family members.

Kane: No one, really. Maybe Alexander the Great, or Napoleon, or someone along those lines. It'd be nice to chat with them again.

Caius: He'd love to see how the old Emperor would react to Milliways. Probably coolly and calmly, as is his wont. But he'd be tremendously honored.

Garyn: His biological parents, so he can punch them in the face FOREVER.

Marge: Gosh, I don't know. Herb Brooks, maybe? Some old high school friends?

Thenardier: The thing he'd love most is the chance to plot his revenge against the rich gentleman who took Cosette. Fortunately, he already seems to be here.

Sheogorath: A decade or so ago, he'd have said Emperor Pelagius III. But after spending 20 years or so in his head, he's more or less finished with him. Sanguine would be a real hoot to spend time here with.

Clem: Would never admit that she misses anybody from home...but sort of secretly wishes Garcia or Dangle would show up.

Dixie: Would love to see Bowler and Socrates, more for Brisco's sake than anything.

Juliet: Wouldn't mind Buzz. Probably secretly fears Woody or Yang will show up.

Pinkie: WOULD LOVE TO SEE RAINBOW DASH SO MUCH! Or Maude, her sister!

Eponine: Secretly fears Marius appearing.
