My muses have run away from home! lol

[missmara13]

I'm at that point of doing what I sometimes do when I get stuck... I randomly select a group (about 10 to 20) of actors and actresses, different age groups (I usually have at least 2 or 3 adults, mostly teens, a couple of younger kids) and I get pictures of them, create a new folde rin my 'Webseries Ideas' folder, and create a story around them...

Who are these people?
How do they know (or not know) eachother?
Where do they live?
Are they all rich, all poor, some of each?
Do they have happy lives or unhappy lives, some in each category?

Anyway, I'm posting this because I'm incredibly bored, trying to get the creative juices flowing so I can actually write something (Preferably fics that you guys give a damn about... lol), so...

Anyone wanna give me a list of a couple actors and actresses? Depending on how many people respond, I'll either use whole lists from people, or just like one or two suggestions from each person... I'll actually create a little character guide to who the characters are, maybe even have some fun with it and create some art...

The only real restriction is I want to be able to find more than one or two pics of the person, I need to have a good selection of pics to look at... oh! And if you have a specific pic of them that you want me to use as the basis for creating their character, feel free to link me to it...

As a little aside, at the moment I'm leaning towards southern Florida (Possibly Miami, but maybe a fictional city) as the location...

Anyway... yeah, I know, I turn to you guys for weird stuff all the time... but I'm weird, too, sooo... yeah, you totally should not be shocked... lol...

Megan Follows, cause I've alwasy wanted red hair.
Rachel Weisz, cause I want her hair.
Gary Dourdan, cause dear Lord, the hotness.
Ben MacKenzie, cause duh.
Ryan Gosling, for the same reason as Ben and Gary.
Summer Glau, cause you have to have a Summer when you have Ben.
Alyson Hannigan, cause ooh, more redheads.
Nathan Fillian, cause I'm a Mal/River shipper.
Jason Statham, cause how awesome would a Nathan and Jason fight scene be?
Jet Li, cause of the awesomeness of martial arts.
Ian McKellan, cause of the age and wisdom thing.

That was fun! Ask for more anytime.

Some of those weren't so easy, but I did get ALL of them into the cast! I just posted a current cats list (with character descriptions) HERE if you wanna see... and feel free to give me some more because creating this cast was FUN! lol

[garnigal.livejournal.com]

I can't believe you got them all in there! And the Nathan/Gary matchup is totally going to give me good dreams. :D

[missmara13]

It was hard to figure out them all, but... I was determined... lol... and actually I was stumped on Megan Follows until someone else suggested Emma Watson, and when I saw the pics of MF and EW close to eachother while looking at the 'leftovers', it suddenly hit me! lol

And yes, Nathan/Gary would be so the hotness... lol... and I totally did NOT intend to name their characters the same first names as my favorite couple on the US Version of Queer As Folk... lol... I only JUST realized that I did... lol...

[garnigal.livejournal.com]

Squee! US QAF! Ben and Michael were cute as hell, but I loved Brian and Justin.

[missmara13]

Brian and Justin are a close second for me... most of my absolutely favorite US QAF fics are actually Brian/Justin... I need to add some of them to my reccomendations list... lol...

[garnigal.livejournal.com]

Yes, please. Brian just such a fun character, because he's so secretive. They did a good job on the show of making Brian go for the easy and the shallow route, but also making it obvious that there was a lot going on inside his head. And of course, Justin growing maturity and confidence.

Plus, hotness.

I believe I can find roles for them... lol... give me until the end of the day, and I'll bet I'll be updating my cats page to include them... lol

[missmara13]

You'll need to scroll through to find the new characters for the cast members you suggested, but... they are all there now!

The Updated Cast of Wild World

[ocmiss.livejournal.com]

Wow, that still amaze me, you really DO have imagination lol.
Hope we'll read about this twisted story of yours :)
Just one question ... : why didn't you keep the same name (apart from last names)?

[missmara13]

I'm not sure what you mean by keep the same names? Do you mean keep the actor/actress's first names and just change their last name? If that's what you mean, it's because, first of all, it doesn't seem as creative to me to do it that way, and second of all, then I'd have 2 Jennifers (Aniston and Love Hewitt) and 2 Rachels (Bilson and Weisz)! lol... if you mean something else, then I'm not getting it... lol

[ocmiss.livejournal.com]

Ah no, sorry, I meant the names from the show, for example Ryan, Brooke ... so it'd maybe be easier for everyone (and certainly for you too, though I kinda like these names too but a bit confusing lol).
Anyway, I hope you'll really wrote it *cross fingers* *puppy eyes*

[missmara13]

Ah! Well, again, the creativity thing is the first reason. These characters aren't connected to any fandom, so... lol... but then there's also the fact that then I'd need to have Emma Watson's character named 'Hermoine', and while I have no problem with the name, it would be a 'mouthful' to type all the time, and cause no end of mocking by the characters enemies... lol... and it would be way too weird to have a gossip columnist named 'Temperance'... lol... I'd still end up with two Rachels (Jennifer Aniston and Danneel Harris), two Gabrielles (Eva Longoria and Vanessa Hudgens), I'd have to change the Malcolm family's last name (because Nathan Fillion would be 'Malcolm'), and seriously? I can't picture a serious guy like David Boreanaz's character being named either 'Seeley' or 'Angel'... lol...

And not all these characters are lead characters lol... Some won't even appear until several eps in, and will only be in a handful of eps... Like, Alan (Jason Statham) is basically in the background most of the time... Andrea (Megan Follows) will probably at most only appear in a handful of scenes with Beth... Laura Fontaine (Catherine Bell, characters first name will change because I messed up and have 2 Lauras... lol) wouldn't show up until abour mid-season... lol...
