[meme] meta stuff

Again from [livejournal.com profile] mutedpoint. How did you come up with your character? Did they just seem to fit? Too cool to be true? Why'd you decide to play them, really? Verse too, if you wanna.

Your username? Or rather, the process of it. Did you reject some, wanted another one, only to have it snatched away by somebody else and had to think up a new one?


I saw the movie the day after it was released, on Saturday. I was driving home from the movie theatre and basically decided I needed to make an Ariadne journal. So, yeah.

What drew me to her? Her audacity, stubbornness, her refusal to be intimidated by all the big scary men with guns, the way she not only wasn't afraid of any of them, but she seemed to earn their respect and trust (as far as that goes), and hustled her way into Cobb's subconscious to kick his ass back into line when nobody else would.

In a word, Ariadne is a Hot Bitch In Charge.

(I also love her occasional moments of vulnerability - the juxtaposition of hubris with uncertainty was irresistible.)

As for the username, I think it was the first thing to pop into my head, and it being only the day after release, it wasn't taken, so I snagged it.

On a somewhat-related note, the userhead is a kitty cat, because Ariadne is often dangerously curious, and everyone knows that saying. Also, my cat is dangerously curious and is named Ariadne, so it's a neverending circle of meta.

It's a cat? Never realized that, always thought it was a mouse.

But the interlooping thing about your cat in real life and Inception? Way cool.
