fictional_fansI have been spending today thinking about the scenario of "What if my favorite characters took online 'who are you' personality quizzes based on people in their universe?"
It started with Vorkosigan, for which we decided that Emperor Gregor never, ever gets Emperor Gregor in "Which Barrayaran Emperor Are You?" quizzes. (Ivan Vorpatril always gets Emperor Gregor. Miles is incapable of taking one without deliberately manipulating the answers to his advantage, even if he tries not to.)
Meanwhile, Poe Dameron always gets Leia in "Which Hero Of the Rebellion Are You" quizzes. Even if he has to get BB-8 to slice in and change the results. (BB-8 is already in there fixing things to get K-2SO, so this is no extra trouble.)
Steve Rogers absolutely never gets Captain America in "Which Avenger Are You?" quizzes, although one time he got Falcon and Sam got Captain America, and Steve bragged about this for a week straight.
Meanwhile, Bruce Wayne always gets Batman on Justice League ones. He would suspect Oracle of somehow cheating to make sure this happens, except he knows enough about computers to know that this isn't actually possible, and also it even happened on the air-gapped, built-for-purpose machine with the quiz he wrote himself for the sole purpose of not getting Batman because this is becoming a security issue, Alfred. (Clark Kent does not take them unless they have Lois Lane as a superhero option, and if they do have Lois Lane as an option he always gets Lois Lane.)
What would your favorite characters get if they took character quizzes? Do you agree with my assessments? If they're famous enough that they are an option the quiz, or if they are nerdy enough that someone in their friend group made it for their friend group, that is extra fun. Bonus if you discuss why or write out some of the actual quiz questions and which option they pick!
