Character meme

Gacked from [livejournal.com profile] bookshop, and this is really a great one:

Leave a list of fictional characters in your journal that you would love to get a message from. It is your friend-list's mission, should they choose to accept it, to write you an in-character "letter" from a character on that list. Then they post their own list in their journal and the process continues!

1. Lord Miles Naismith Vorkosigan (Lois McMaster Bujold)
2. Lady Ekaterin Vorkosigan (Lois McMaster Bujold)
3. Lord Ivan Vorpatril (Lois McMaster Bujold)
4. Anne Elliot (Jane Austen's Persuasion)
5. Sophy Stanton-Lacy from Georgette Heyer's The Grand Sophy
6. Janet from [livejournal.com profile] pameladean's Tam Lin
7. The Phouka from [livejournal.com profile] coffeeem's War for the Oaks
8. Uriah Heep from Dicken's David Copperfield
9. Elinor Dashwood (Jane Austen's Sense and Sensibility)
10. Marianne Dashwood (Jane Austen's Sense and Sensibility)
11. Elizabeth Bennet (Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice)
12. Samwise Gamgee
11. Frodo Baggins
12. Merry Brandybuck
13. Pippin Took
14. Gandalf the Grey
15. Lucy Pevensie from the Narnia books

RETURN TO SENDER: Addressee deceased.

Lucy Pevensie

That night, in a dream: Of course I'm not deceased! I'm in Narnia, the true Narnia, all the way in. Dear Peg, I can't tell you what a joy it's been to be able to walk with Aslan whenever I want, and never have him go away! To romp with the Professor and Aunt Polly, who are not old any more. And to finally be able to tell Mother and Father, and to show then through Cair Paravel. I still enjoy prowling through the treasury, but now the diamond bottle And Susan has joined us!

I tried first to write in Anne Shirley's voice, at a point when Nan and Di were near Fiona and Delia's age - and you know what, I just couldn't do it. I hadn't realized how little she actually talks about motherhood, or in fact at all, anywhere after Anne's House of Dreams.

Oops - should say "... the diamond bottle sits on a shelf there, because I will never need to use it again."

I wish comments were editable!
