Daemon Meme

[awanderingbard]

Combining my two favourite things: character development memes and daemons. Thought it might jump start my word fairies.

Give me the name of a character and I'll tell you the following about their daemon:

Animal:
Name:
Nickname:
Major Personality Traits:
How he/she sleeps:
How he/she travels with his/her human:
What he/she does when his/her human is at rest:
Favourite forms before he/she settled:
What his/her voice sounds like:

I can probably come up with a daemon if it's for a character I haven't yet given one to. Feel free to ask for more than one character.

I feel like Siger and Dora and Howard Maria should get Mycroft and Tony together for a playdate or something.

It would give Mycroft some early lessons on how to deal with Sherlock.

Fortunately, there are people who are like 'I think I'll make a whole webpage devoted to what trains were like in the 1980's in England'.

Good ol' internet. It rarely lets you down!

I'm just picturing them running into each other as adults.

Tony: Wait, the guy running Britain is the fat kid who used to try to organize my tools by purpose and color?
Mycroft: Are you seriously suggesting that the hyperactive gamin who kept breaking my toys to salvage them for parts is some sort of superhero?

HAHAHAHA!! It's like both their worlds stopped making any sort of sense. I can see the Avengers needing to come to England on some sort of mission and Tony in his Iron Man suit having an awkward reunion with Mycroft.

Mycroft: The outfit aligns with my memories of you as a child at least.

[awanderingbard.livejournal.com]

Hee! I'm just picturing Tony trying to look dignified and casual in full Iron Man outfit in Mycroft's medieval office. Just, like, leaning on the mantelpiece and knocking over a priceless artifact.

Tony: I'll pay for that.
Mycroft: Yes, that's rather familiar too.

I can't tell if Mycroft would approve of the Avengers or find them all individually irritating in their own ways. I'm guessing the latter because Mycroft probably finds the world about 80% irritating.

If Tony, Bruce and Q ever decided to truly team up, the world is probably doomed.

He'd probably approve of Tash, because at least she's efficient.

Tony: God, your parents made more of you?
Q: Your parents must not have been brave enough to try again after they'd seen what they'd wrought on the first attempt.
Tony: *big grin* You can come and play with us.

Tony would be thrilled that Q is basically the human form of Jarvis. Computer brain and all the snark.

And patient enough to deal with him because Q has lived with Sherlock all his life, and he can totally handle obnoxious geniuses.

I'm picturing Bond there, too, to be on Q's security detail, and just wandering around going 'there's a guy here who can shoot missiles from his arm and a computer who at least 99% alive, what are they fucking expecting me to do if someone attacks?'.

Is it sad that I can justify this all working in my head? Because Siger might have been called into code break for Shield at some point, and Mycroft and Tony are probably the same age, and...stuff.

I still maintain Sherlock is the easiest fandom to crossover.

Craig!Bond would communicate all this with an eye twitch.

Crossovers are always my kryptonite so I am in no position to judge. Only sit here with my hands on my cheeks and smile.

It's a VERY easy fandom to cross. Torchwood used to be my easiest fandom crossover when I still did Torchwood fic. Anything involving international levels of action and espionage and crossovers are simple!

So far the best part of writing daemon!fic with Bond is at least there is someone there to articulate his thoughts, and you don't have to have him being all silent and brooding. He can brood with his soul.

I always find characters get a bit more warm in daemon!fic. Maybe just the influence of cuddly animal friends.

Only sit here with my hands on my cheeks and smile.

I"m just thinking, Howard might invite Siger over to work with SHIELD, and maybe Dora decides going with him would be educational, and Maria invites her over to hang out since she doesn't know anyone in America and...bam! Crossover fic.

I was going to mention, because it may be relevant to your interests, there is a tie-in comic for the Iron Man films that claims that JARVIS is based on the personality of the Starks' English Butler, Edwin Jarvis, who was around when Tony growing up, and who stood in as pseudo-dad for Tony. Sort of like his Alfred (which was the reason they changed him to an AI for the film, incidentally,because they thought people would accuse him of a being a rip-off). I don't know if that helps or hinders you, but I don't consider tie-ins canon, so you can ignore it if it doesn't work, or use it if it would be helpful.

It makes us all fluffier.

I thought the original comics!Jarvis was indeed a person who was a butler. I just didn't know it was an English butler.

I just did a quick Google. It says Jarvis was a RAF pilot in WWII who moved to America after the war and started working for the Starks. I think he's meant to be play on Jeeves.

I guess British butlers were all the rage back then.

*dons History Nerd glasses*

I could see America being the place to go for a man trained to be a British butler post-WWII. The class system in England broke down post WWI and was even worse post-WWII, and many houses couldn't afford to keep servants any more. A lot of men who had been trained for what was a very prestigious job back then found themselves digging ditches to make money. Americans would have found the notion of British staff very fancy, especially the nouveau riche who were trying to prove they were just as genteel. If you had your heart set on buttling, America might be the place to go.

*takes off History Nerd glasses, shakes out hair*

That makes tons of sense. I can see the Starks of the comics picking up one because, well, they're Starks.

I sort of gave computer!Jarvis a different origins story for my Tony kid!fic in the daemon-verse. I liked the idea of Jarvis sort of "growing up" along side Tony who built him slowly over the years.

[awanderingbard.livejournal.com]

Hee, 'picking one up' sounds like there's a bunch f British butlers at the Humane Society and the Starks just came in and adopted one.

I liked the idea of Jarvis sort of "growing up" along side Tony who built him slowly over the years.

Aww! I like that far better, to be honest. And it makes sense that Jarvis is so advance as to be almost sentient now, if Tony has been working on him that long and tweaking the flaws.
