Can you scare me up a little bit of love?

[cyrano]

In honor of Windrose's short story submission, this week's IFAMAQ will have a literary option: You may ask me a question as a character in any novel (although the answer will be probably better if I've read the novel in question) and I shall attempt to answer in as fine a form as I can manage.

Traditional 'ask me a question' questions are of course still welcome.

Dear Gandalf: What do you like on your pizza?

Dear Gollum-
What is your favorite pizza topping?

[cyranocyrano.livejournal.com]

Cave slime is good, yes we likes that doesn't we? And fish! Rrraw and wrrrrriggling!
Oh, and mushrooms. Deformed slaves to the One True Ring do enjoy their mushrooms, Precious.

The best pipeweed in the Shire.
Oh, and mushrooms. Wizards do enjoy their mushrooms.

Dear Christiana Tree: What is the proper pronunciation of the acronym IFAMAQ?

[cyranocyrano.livejournal.com]

Damn. That's one of the new ones, and I haven't read it yet.
But it's pretty straightforward. "If A Mac." It indicates possibilities, options, futures as yet unexplored.

Dear Ender Wiggin-
What is the best way to deal with my annoying co-worker?

[cyranocyrano.livejournal.com]

Surprize. If you can sneak into the office around 6am then you can establish ambush position on a promontory for maximum visibility and then deliver a single decisive blow before the co-worker takes hir first coffee break.

Dear Rand al'Thor:

Will your series ever come to an end?

[cyranocyrano.livejournal.com]

Okay, this one I had to Google. So I'm going to sort of guess on the character voice and hope that I get it right:

Will it ever stop? Yo -- I don't know
Turn off the lights and I'll glow
To the extreme I rock a mic like a vandal
Light up a stage and wax a chump like a candle.

Now that I know I get the shit job assignment at South next year, should I beg my bosses at North for more hours next year? If yes, how should I go about doing this in a seemly manner?

[cyranocyrano.livejournal.com]

Definitely.
I'd start by talking about how much you feel you've learned this year at North, and indicate your appreciation for those involved. From there you can move to asking if there are more duties you can assume, so as to become more involved in the school's community, and thence to controlling the entire campus with an army of genetically modified baboons.
