Hoping to boost my word fairy, I thought I'd do a backstory meme. She likes those.

Character Questions Meme
1. Go here to generate 10 random numbers between 1 and 100.

2. Choose a character that I write or have written, be it a canon person, an OC or whatever. Feel free to pick a character that was used last time, as the questions will most likely be different this time around.

3. Comment with the character and the numbers, and then I will answer the corresponding questions from here


OCS and AU versions of characters are welcome.

Thanks. She's slowly working her way back to full strength. We managed to finish one story last night, but it needs some work. And my other one is crawling along, but my Lestrade insists on sounding like John, so I have to work on that. We'll get there.

Looks like you didn't generate enough numbers, so I've generated them for you, and one ended up being a repeat, so I've swapped 98 in there. :-) I'm also assuming you want canon Molly, since you didn't specify otherwise.

Molly Hooper

96. If you knew you were going to die in 24 hours, name three things you would do in the time you had left.

Oh. Oh! Erm...hmmm...well, I would want to say goodbye to everyone, so I would probably at least go and hug them and tell them that I love them, and maybe tell them what I've always wanted to say but was afraid to. Only good things, though, not bad ones. Good things I haven't said. What else? I suppose I might want to do something like sky diving or bungee jumping, since it wouldn't really matter if something went wrong. And I'd have a big dinner and eat whatever I wanted. Maybe combine that with the first one. I'd have everyone over and eat my favourite food, and tell them that I love them.

Or I might ask a really fit man if he wanted to have a one stand night. But only if he knew the circumstances. It would be really cruel to do that and maybe he'd like me, and then I'd be dead. Which would be annoying for me, too, to have someone like me just before I died.

No. Dinner, nice words, and bungee jumping. Final answer.

75. What is your idea of good entertainment (consider music, movies, art, etc.)?

I don't have very sophisticated tastes, I'm afraid. I like romantic comedies, and the Spice Girls, and Poirot. I think good entertainment should leave you feeling happy, even if sad things happen along the way. I don't really care for bleak films. I deal with enough sad things at work. Sad things should end happily.

77. How do you spend a typical Saturday night?

Erm. Alone? These days alone. Except for Toby. Who is a cat, not a man. Sometimes Sherlock calls me in to help on a case. Otherwise, it's just me and Toby and whatever's on telly. Which is fine! I like having time to myself sometimes. I used to be engaged, and he was always around, which I liked, but it's a bit nice now to have the time on my own again.

28. If you are a supernatural being (i.e. mage, werewolf, vampire), tell the story of how you became what you are or first learned of your own abilities. If you are just a normal human, describe any influences in your past that led you to do the things you do today.

It's very silly, but one of the biggest influences in my life was Blue Peter. All the science experiments they did, and lessons in how bones or muscles worked, and visiting scientists at work, that all made me want to be a scientist. It wasn't until I was in high school that learned about pathology. Most people think pathology means 'dead people', but it's actually the study of diseases and how to treat them. I thought I wanted to be a doctor or a nurse or something, but when I was in high school Mrs Adeyemi, my science teacher, told me about Biomedical Sciences, which is what I really wanted to do, but I didn't know existed. So, she was a big influence, too.

And my dad was always very supportive of me, and really encouraging. Mum is too, of course, but I think Dad got why I wanted to work with dead people. Mum is a little freaked out by it. Most people are. He was a big influence because he didn't make me feel weird about it. He died a few years ago. I miss him.
