*Jumps on bandwagon* *late!*

Give me a character and I will give you at least five facts about them according to my own personal canon. This can range from their birthday, favorite color or even their earliest memory up to what they had last night for dinner.

GUESS.

YOU MAKE THINGS SO HARD FOR ME! How could I possibly know who you are talking about? *snerk*

1. Bela took piano lessons as a girl, and she was a very good player. She hated playing, though, because she wasn't perfect enough to receive the approval she so badly wanted from her parents. Whenever her mother was in listening range, Bela made such bad mistakes from nervousness that it seemed like she couldn't play well at all. Her father was never around to hear her play.
2. Her cat's name is Bast. This is not a very creative name, but she looked like a Bast to Bela. She bought the cat, a purebreed, on a whim one day early on in her move to New York City. She'd been thinking about purchasing one for awhile, because she'd had a cat as a girl, and she had always cuddled with Bela and made her feel less sad. Bast, sadly, is not too cuddly, but she enjoys a lapsit often enough to be a good pet.
3. She forgets for weeks at a time what her birth name was. But then she'll see, hear, or taste something that reminds of "before" and it all comes back.
4. While she doesn't hate herself, she doesn't like herself very much, either. If she let herself dwell on the subject, she would hate herself.
5. She doesn't wear perfume. You can get caught or noticed way too easily if you have an obvious scent.

Ingress.

I'm gonna do some future Ingress, I think.

1. Ingress will fall in lurve when she is 16. She won't get her heart broken, but she'll realize that not everyone ends up like Door and finds the person of her dreams at a young age.
2. She loves ice cream beyond reason, and she will figure out a way to make it and keep it cold when she moves to her new world. She might have to recruit some Herald Mages to help her.
3. She will be secretly happy to leave the Underside behind her, but she'll always feel conflicted about that, because she thinks she is betraying Door and her family. Tom will understand, and they'll talk about it often.
4. She'll keep all of the weapons given to her over the years, and many of her other little presents from friends, with her in Valdemar. Her daughter will use the small-sized weapons as she grows up, and many will be passed down to the next generations.
5. Opening is not a genetic gift that will take in Valdemar. Every now and again, a child will be born of Ingress' line with that talent, but that trait will eventually die out.

Tom since no one's asked yet.

1. Tom is terrified of having children of his own. Ingress is a delight and Gavroche has been a great son, but having an actual baby with Door is something that worries him, not the least because he worries about Door's health (his mother died in childbirth, after all). He knows it will happen eventually, but he's not in a hurry.
2. He writes in a journal still. No one knows.
3. Looking his best is part of what makes him feel powerful.
4. He loves magic. He loves feeling it well up inside him, he loves focusing it and making it do what he wants.
5. He really likes oatmeal. I don't know why. It's one of his favorite foods.

Dumbledore.

1. Dumbledore often wondered whether all the machinations were worth it in the long run, but this was mostly because of his guilty conscience.
2. He liked teaching very much, because it was such a positive way to change the world.
3. The day Minerva McGonagall performed her first Animagus transformation was a day he always thought of with pride and happiness. She was one of his favorite pupils.
4. He regretted his missteps with Tom Riddle although he knew hindsight is 20/20, as the Muggles say.
5. He never wanted to be a part of the Muggle world, but he envied Muggles for their blithe existence apart from the menace of Dark wizards.

Geddy Lee. (You didn't say "fictional" character.) :-P

You want me to RPF Geddy Lee??? You're off your nut, man. :-P

*giggles* I... don't know! I'd have to consult Mr. Viv.
