Fannish Five: Taking characters on vacation

[selenak]

Pick five characters and tell us where you would go on vacation with them, individually, or in a group.

1.) Laura Roslin: is the type to visit cities like London, New York or Rome with, because she wouldn't mind spending much time in museums and bookstores, plus she would get us any theatre ticket I want to have, no matter how sold out the play, by either manipulating or intimidating the people who have them to hand them over.

2, 3, 4 and 5.) Londo Mollari, Vir Cotto, G'Kar and Timov: would get holidays on the beach with me, specifically Sylt (=island in the Northern Sea, for non Germans). Admittedly this is inspired by Londo's heartrendering "I would like to walk on a beach with you, for just five minutes" speech from In the Beginning, but I still think it would be fun, because they all deserve a vacation, witty conversation and banter would be ensured, G'Kar could withdraw into the dunes to meditate if he absolutely wanted to, and if Londo would cajole him and Timov to a threesome, I could pounce on Vir. In a totally platonic "you're such an adorable teddy bear" fashion, of course. (Alternatively, I could flirt with G'Kar and Londo. I look reasonably good in a bathing suite.) And if the guys drive me crazy, I could diss them with Timov.

OK, seriously, I can't decide which idea amuses me more: you and Laura talking your way into sold out plays, or Londo & G'Kar fighting over you.

I'm mulling over the advisability of taking Wesley to Europe with me. The upside is that he'd speak all the languages, but the downside is he'd probably be snooty about it and correct the native speakers' pronunciation. Maybe I'd take Buffy along with us, to either smooth things over with her unconventional diplomatic skills or (if those failed) win the fight.

Alternatively, I might just take the Immortal.

Wesley and Buffy would be an interesting and enlivening combination, as well as useful for the reasons you name.*g*

Plus, they're both kind of pretty.

Not sure how the sleeping arrangements would work out, but you know I like Wes and Buffy together in that platonic-ampersand kind of way, so that does narrow things down ;).
