What fictional character would you spend one whole afternoon as? Harry Potter,The Vampire Lestat (my personal choice!)King Lear?Nancy Drew? Would you stay in your own world, or venture into theirs?I would def be Lestat in the heart of New Orleans!

I would like to join Harry Potter's world but as my own self, an asian wizard studying at hogwarts like Cho Chung, no I wont be a griffindor, I would like to be a Slytherin guy...What?!" the only nice Slytherin guy in the history of Slytherin and a spy for harry against Malfoy and his thugs. Like a Sheep in Wolf's clothing... hahah I'll pretend to be an ally to Malfoy but relay all I know to Harry and the guys, Im still living the slytherin way right..being cunning but against my own house mates :) hahah

I would love to deal with House - from the TV series House. He has got an attitude that just warms the heart, ok, he is nasty, cold and sarcastic and I love him. Any other house fans here?

A character from books? That is a tough one. I don't read a whole lot of books that have the same characters throughout a series. Ed McBain has the same characters in his 87th Precinct novels but they are all male cops, and I don't want to be a male... or a cop. Sue Grafton writes about Kinsey Millhone, a private eye. I don't want that job, not for a second. Now, Andrew M. Greeley has a series of "Irish" books - Irish Eyes, Irish Gold, Irish Love, and more. I think I would love to play the character of the lovely Irish Nuala. She sounds beautiful. I think back to kids books I read and I don't really think I want to be any of those characters either - Trixie Belden, Nancy Drew, Laura Ingalls Wilder. Now if you asked me what TV character I would want to be, I would say Samantha Stevens in a heartbeat. I always pretended to be her as a kid. I want her powers soooo bad!

Nuala sounds very pretty, but Samantha Stevens does take the cake,I agree! You're very discerning with your character thoughts, very cool, i watched bewitched all the time when I was small.Thanks! :)

I could never pick just one- Harry Potter is good- but then there is Snoopy, Garfield, Shrek, any and all Disney characters, Scooby-Doo. Wait there's more- characters from the shows, Heros, 4400, the Ghost WHisperer, Medium. the movie Hitch, Legally Blonde....I could go on forever.

This is a very interesting question. I'd have to say the Bernstein Bears. Yes, you read that right. The Bernstein Bears. It was a children's book, but did you see the tree house they had? Honey was available to them all the time, and their beds looked REALLY comfortable!

I'd be the smallest and youngest bear. I don't want to get too fat to fit into the tree house. : )

Wow. Such a difficult decision. I think, though, that I would be the pub owner in Hogsmeade from the Harry Potter world. I can't remember her name at the moment. But, I would want to be in their world. I would love to live in Hogsmeade.

Hmmm...first choice would be Lazarus Long from Robert Heinlein. Mainly because in his time, almost all things/diseases are cured...and I want to be part of the "Howards" and live a very long time. I also love Anne McCaffrey books...From there, it would be the Masterharper (Robinson). Mercedes Lackey's books too...One of the great wizards. For any of these, I'd go to THEIR world. Why confuse them with our wacky world? Besides, I'd like to see what I've been reading about!
