Currently I am at a professional conference. The kind that is -- aside from the meetings and the disseminating of scientific information, a lot more like summer camp than a conference. For one, we are housed in dormitories.
For another, there are afternoon activities! I am, to no one's surprise, in my decently-sized and yet Hollywood nun-ishly spare dorm room reading books. Kate Griffin's Matthew Swift series entertains me immensely, and I do not want to put it down. Sadly I was also thwarted in picking up the final Demon's Lexicon book, though kindle saved me from that, so that one is next in the queue.
And since I will have long, long hours of sitting around watching presentations about DNA that mean very little to me personally (this is the day with the least useful stuff for me, so it goes) --

I pick Joe!
From:
no subject
01. Full name:
X, combat alias: X-23, other aliases: Laura Kinney, Laura Talbot, Twenty-three, and Joe.
02. Best friend:
Elle (from Heroes). The next tier down is Meg Ford, Parker Lee, Cass Cain, and Stitch
03. Sexuality:
Bisexual, with an incredibly low libido
04. Favorite color:
Purple. She wears a lot of black, though.
05. Relationship status:
Dating Bruce Wayne
06. Ideal mate:
Someone who does not judge her for her past and respects that she chooses to do what she does, even if they may disagree with her about it and are free to say so. Someone she can trust to watch her back. Someone she does not have to police.
07. Turn-ons:
Full body contact, skin-to-skin or clothed, and hands.
08. Last sexual experience:
With another person? Waaaay back when she was fifteen or so and tried it out with this kid, because he wanted to and she didn't have a reason not to, and everyone else was doing it. She's twenty now. Thus far in her life there has been some kissing? And a vibrator.
09. Favorite food:
Spaghetti. Root beer floats. Funnel cake.
10. Crushes:
She had one on X5-494 for a while, and one on Julian Keller. Elle is complicated. Bruce.
11. Favorite music:
Folk music, and Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers.
12. Biggest fear:
Being made to kill someone she cares about again via the trigger scent. Actually being a victim to the trigger scent in general.
13. Biggest fantasy:
Having her sensei living in her current neighborhood. (Yes, the dead one.) Knowing what having a mother is like.
14. Quirks in bed:
I have to guess, but if I think about it, mostly the hand thing, being very physical and moving people around, very curious and with no concept of pacing or teasing.
15. Bad habits:
Quick to ignore her own emotional health and her needs in general, very focused on practicality and efficiency, oblivious to when it's time to stop asking questions, and convinced many common human behavioral things and social things are stupid.
16. Biggest regret:
Being made.
17. Best kept secrets:
The trigger scent. Most of the abuse she suffered as a kid. How much she hates Sarah Kinney. How much she does not hate Sarah Kinney.
18. Last thought:
Ever? 'Good.'
19. Worst sexual/romantic experience:
Well, the crush on Julian sure brought a bunch of emotional and social upheaval with it, back in the day. She does not really have a bad experience more recent than that.
20. Biggest insecurity:
Communicating successfully is something she is always worried about doing wrong.

HM. I will be all predictable and go with Raven. :D
From:
no subject
01. Full name:
Raven, who sets things right.
02. Best friend:
Coyote! (Moiraine and Ace are also on this list, but in a slightly different position, so.)
03. Sexuality:
Lacking any and all biology. It saves time!
04. Favorite color:
Black! Like his coat.
05. Relationship status:
Just recently reconciled(ish) with Coyote after the acrimonious end to their platonic marriage. Or, to put it another way, as single as ever.
06. Ideal mate:
See above. *wry* Tricksters make the best platonic life-partners.
07. Turn-ons:
Evil cracks him up? Which is not the same thing at all. SO DRAMATIC.
08. Last sexual experience:
There was this one time he sat on an angel's lap and made out with him? Um.
09. Favorite food:
Cookies. Also bear fat.
10. Crushes:
Castiel and Raguel, kind of? In that way where pestering them is the BEST EVER.
11. Favorite music:
Anything people are singing. NOT the cousins. Birds are too chattery when they sing.
12. Biggest fear:
Being alone again!
13. Biggest fantasy:
Settlers and colonists never having shown up. Or shown up much much much later. But never showing up works.
14. Quirks in bed:
N/A. If he did have biology he would have an immense oral fixation and be quite happy doing something with that for hours on end.
15. Bad habits:
Ahahahahaha. Ahahahaha. He is insane. He has a temper. He is not kind even to his BFFs. He does not speak directly. He consumes too much sugar. He likes playing pranks. Mean pranks.
16. Biggest regret:
Staying away for so long.
17. Best kept secrets:
The part of him that knows a lot, and is very wise, and has an immense capacity to change the universe? Also that he plays tricks with reality. Like. Really with reality.
18. Last thought:
Again?
19. Worst sexual/romantic experience:
That divorce from Coyote was pretty damn acrimonious, I am just saying.
20. Biggest insecurity:
Having the people he loves best be mad at him forever.
If you have other questions about the answers here or Raven in general, shoot!

Galadan, Wolflord of the andain
02. Best friend:
It's a toss-up between Mary Lennox and River Tam. Gabriel Tam is a close-run third, but it's different.
03. Sexuality:
Straight. (AND STERILE AS A MULE. Er. *cough*)
04. Favorite color:
Grey.
05. Relationship status:
Single and *gasp* NO LONGER PINING. 1.5 centuries are good for that!
06. Ideal mate:
Someone who does not take his shit, but also does not abandon him for the hot new thing on the block. Someone who is not mind-numbingly boring. Someone who does not always mind that he is a bitchy asshole.
07. Turn-ons:
Competence. Intelligence. A spine. Turning the tables on him in bed. (Laughter, shhh it is a secret. I am not sure even he knows this yet. AHAHAHA.) Probably some degree of biting.
08. Last sexual experience:
Sometimes when he goes back to Fionavar he and various andain ladies might occasionally wear each other out.
09. Favorite food:
Raw eltor. Or whoever.
10. Crushes:
Once upon a time there was this forest sprite named Lisen. She was very pretty, and also born to kill. Galadan was a bit smitten. Since then, nothing. Thank all the gods.
11. Favorite music:
Galadan is not really the listening to music type. If it's there, fine. If it's not, no skin off his nose.
12. Biggest fear:
Failure. More specifically, losing to someone he thinks is weaker and undeserving.
13. Biggest fantasy:
Sometimes he still dreams of what might have happened if Lisen had gone with him and not Amairgen. Sometimes he also dreams of training an army of Edwardian schoolgirls to take over England, and then the world. *shrugs* So.
14. Quirks in bed:
Biting. Dominance games. I think with someone he liked they might be more playful, to a point. I do not think he enjoys having all four limbs tied down or otherwise immobilized. Possibly not even both hands.
15. Bad habits:
He has incredible disdain for almost everyone. Everything he does is some sort of power game. He is unable to let go of his desire to win, even to secure human company. Most people are not very real to him, or at least are completely insignificant in and of themselves. He tends to make people bleed first and ask questions later.
16. Biggest regret:
Probably, even now, that he lost. Even though what he got out of it is certainly worth the trouble, and he is making an impact on his world and some others -- he still sometimes thinks about how perfect that victory would have been. For something less world-ending -- I think he sometimes also regrets caring about Mary and River and Gabriel. Not enough to stop, certainly, but he would be an idiot not to recognize that these are sort of great gaping holes of weakness where previously he had only the one. Ah well. Mary would take any changes in his behavior as a sign that he was going evil again, so that's that.
17. Best kept secrets:
This one is tough. Maybe how much of a marshmallow he really is for the people he likes? The fact that River gets to regularly run around in his head? (For a given value of run).
18. Last thought:
I would imagine something along the lines of taking everyone else down with him, up until there is no life left.
19. Worst sexual/romantic experience:
Things with Lisen almost sent the entirety of reality into the toilet. Because he had a centuries long temper tantrum. Yeah. That was pretty bad.
20. Biggest insecurity:
I think he might be at somewhat of a loss if there was nothing for him to manipulate. Losing control is not his thing, either. But -- as far as personal insecurities go, he's probably at his most uncertain when he's choosing where to stand somewhere in between light and dark. Part of him yearns for both.

01. Full name:
Aslan, son of the Emperor over the sea.
02. Best friend:
Jesus
03. Sexuality:
omnisexual, baby.
04. Favorite color:
Gold!
05. Relationship status:
Married to his work
06. Ideal mate:
Fandom says Peter Pevensie. I say: saving souls
07. Turn-ons:
People doing the right thing! For NARNIA.
08. Last sexual experience:
He has to admit, Jadis was pretty hott. Am I right?
09. Favorite food:
Sunshine and honey.
10. Crushes:
Lucy had a very special place in his heart. If he were a ten year old in school, he would have made her a valentine.
11. Favorite music:
Roaring hits of whatever decade!
12. Biggest fear:
Mice.
13. Biggest fantasy:
Sensual shaving with The White Witch.
14. Quirks in bed:
Aslan often forgets that he has claws.
15. Bad habits:
Appears as flickers in the corner of people's eyes, then judges them when they disbelieve the evidence of their own senses. His is an eternal game of 'got you last'. Also pretty girls do not go here.
16. Biggest regret:
Letting the donkey pretend to be him that one time. He thought it was funny! Oops.
17. Best kept secrets:
He'd rather be a tiger.
18. Last thought:
Well, that was a great relationship.
19. Worst sexual/romantic experience:
It wasn't Jadis' dagger he wanted to be stabbed by.
20. Biggest insecurity:
Does he look funny without all his hair? Tell him. He can take it.

Diana, Princess of Themyscira. Also known as Wonder Woman.
02. Best friend:
Etta Candy and Steve Trevor. Donna Troy. Kal-El and Bruce.
03. Sexuality:
Canon generally only shows her dating men, but I find it inconceivable that she does not also like ladies. So. Bi.
04. Favorite color:
Blue
05. Relationship status:
Single right now. She has terrible luck with men.
06. Ideal mate:
Someone who does not let her take herself too seriously. Someone who is prepared to fight the same kind of battles she fights, even if the battlefield is entirely different. (see: Trevor the UN worker). Someone with honor.
07. Turn-ons:
Light bondage, affection, laughter, stroking the inside of her arm. Not being afraid of her strength in bed.
08. Last sexual experience:
Soon it will be with Tom Tresser, but she is not there yet. I think right now she's still abstaining.
09. Favorite food:
Bagels and cream cheese. Spanakopita.
10. Crushes:
There were a few moments where she had a thing for Kal. There were many many longer moments where she had a thing for Bruce. Dean Winchester only wishes she had a crush on him.
11. Favorite music:
The songs performed by her sisters.
12. Biggest fear:
Being alone
13. Biggest fantasy:
That her mother is not dead and the Amazons are not gone from this earth.
14. Quirks in bed:
She occasionally forgets that she's wearing the bracelets.
15. Bad habits:
She has too much a sense of her own gravitas. Sometimes she values the path of expediency. She will give people waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too many chances. She has a quick temper that sometimes escapes her control. She tends to be very demanding of others. No sense of time management.
16. Biggest regret:
That she did not spend enough time on Themyscira as the years went by. There is no more time, now.
17. Best kept secrets:
That one time she fought a dragon solo? She's -- not really good at keeping secrets, because most of them are gratuitous.
18. Last thought:
Hera help them.
19. Worst sexual/romantic experience:
Trevor turning into a rainshower was pretty traumatizing. Also there was the one time superhero guy whose name I do not remember ended up being Heracles in disguise.
20. Biggest insecurity:
That she will falter under the weight of her responsibilities.

Michael the Archangel, Prince of the Presence and Captain of the Host.
02. Best friend:
Fionnghuala, probably, in canon. In-game, probably Lucifer (canon Lucifer) or Verity.
03. Sexuality:
Largely irrelevant.
04. Favorite color:
Green
05. Relationship status:
Single for now and forever.
06. Ideal mate:
None. She's not built for it.
07. Turn-ons:
Well, she's impressed by people who know who they are. And how they got to be that way.
08. Last sexual experience:
Fifth of never!
09. Favorite food:
Doughnuts and coffee.
10. Crushes:
Urahara. *lies*
11. Favorite music:
Songs by the heavenly choir. She also likes punk music.
12. Biggest fear:
Losing her brother again.
13. Biggest fantasy:
That one day Lucifer will stop being a smug asshole.
14. Quirks in bed:
She doesn't use a bed!
15. Bad habits:
Too much pride, too much temper, she's often very condescending. Inflexible, though she's getting a little better about that.
16. Biggest regret:
That she ever had anything to do with dragons. (That's a lie.)
17. Best kept secrets:
She still loved Lucifer, even after he fell. So much.
18. Last thought:
They're learning.
19. Worst sexual/romantic experience:
Sometimes she gets hit on by guys in clubs. Or girls in clubs. Depending on the body. And the decade. One time a maiden tried to give him her favor? That was weird.
20. Biggest insecurity:
That she'll do something that will cause her brothers to abandon their posts again.

Dean Winchester
02. Best friend:
Sam!
03. Sexuality:
Straight
04. Favorite color:
Black! Well, for cars, anyway.
05. Relationship status:
Single and on a break from hook-ups, thanks Hell.
06. Ideal mate:
Someone he can make a home with, really. He's easy. *wry*
07. Turn-ons:
Ladies! He likes everything about them. And what they choose to do. Yes please!
08. Last sexual experience:
There may have been times in Hell. He does not like to think about those. Since then, nothing.
09. Favorite food:
Burgers and beer. And fries. And PIE.
10. Crushes:
Generally if he's crushing on a woman, he's going after her. Why wouldn't he try?
11. Favorite music:
Classic rock. Esp. Led Zeppelin and AC/DC.
12. Biggest fear:
Failing Sam. (Having to kill him.)
13. Biggest fantasy:
So there's these triplets, right? And they [insert graphic sexual fantasy here].
14. Quirks in bed:
He's very good at what he does. He sleeps with a gun. He doesn't often stay the night. Unless there is no sleeping at all.
15. Bad habits:
He eats all the time, he has no verbal filter, he tends to be sexist, he's an ass, he shuts down and doesn't talk, he's a drifter and a con man. I could go on for days and days.
16. Biggest regret:
That he was in a coma instead of dead after the Impala crashed. Everything would've been better if he'd just died.
17. Best kept secrets:
All of them.
18. Last thought:
Sammy! (Or, hey, at least this time it ain't hellhounds.)
19. Worst sexual/romantic experience:
Any time he has been cock-blocked. Especially the time with Starla and the purple nurples.
20. Biggest insecurity:
That he's worthless, and everything he tries is doomed to failure, because he's just that terrible.

Xas. He's a simple man. (Riiiight.)
02. Best friend:
Probably Thom, actually, since Sobran is dead.
03. Sexuality:
Bisexual. Or rather, he makes no distinctions.
04. Favorite color:
Red.
05. Relationship status:
Complicated. Very, very, very complicated. Thank God he's good at polyamory?
06. Ideal mate:
The unholy lovechild of Sobran and Lucifer would make him happy. Maybe.
07. Turn-ons:
Kissing, touches on his chest, touches along where his wings were, which he will kill people if they try -- more kissing.
08. Last sexual experience:
A wealthy gentleman on the Cote d'Azur was looking for a companion and Xas was bored.
09. Favorite food:
Wine.
10. Crushes:
Raguel. Lucifer from his canon. Lucifer from the bar. Thom. Sobran. Oh my god the shame of not being able to remember Sobran's lover's name. *facepalms*
11. Favorite music:
Whatever people on the streets are listening to. It makes him feel like he belongs.
12. Biggest fear:
Losing his wings. Thank god that already happened.
13. Biggest fantasy:
Not having lost his wings.
14. Quirks in bed:
He tends toward pliancy with an edge of submission. Several people could probably slam him full-body into submission. Two guesses who.
15. Bad habits:
Quick to give in, purposeless, aimless, too easily subsumed in people he loves. Kind of bitchy. In it for the thrill.
16. Biggest regret:
He's torn in regretting talking to Sobran. He's also torn about having learned exactly who and what he is.
17. Best kept secrets:
He's a Christ-clone!
18. Last thought:
Is this how he felt?
19. Worst sexual/romantic experience:
Things with Sobran got very ugly a time or two. Things with Lucifer also got really ugly that one time. He does not have much luck with that kind of thing, apparently.
20. Biggest insecurity:
When he goes back for the people he cares about, they will no longer want him around. That and truly feeling just how lost he is, and mistaking that for worthlessness.
