Can we do that thing where you give me a subject and I list TOP 5? Please? Because I'm bored, and needs should definitely be met. As long as it doesn't require ointments the next day.

If I was allowed to invite fictional characters, I wouldn't care whether they got along or not. I'd just invite who I most wanted to see. But, in light of your prompt:

To romanticize:
-Marianne Dashwood
-Anne of Green Gables
-Maria (from The Sound of Music)
-Sara Crew (from A Little Princess, older, so I can see how she grew up and who she ended up with)
-Tatyana (from Eugene Onegin)

To be sparkly, witty, misguided, and human:
-Elizabeth Bennet
-Buffy Summers
-Isobel Archer (from Portrait of a Lady)
-Lorelai Gilmore (from the show "Gilmore Girls")
-Prospero (only because I don't believe Shakespeare is fictional)

To brood, say nothing, not look at each other, and say how much they hate themselves when I've plied them with too much booze:
-Angel
-Jean Valjean
-Erik (from The Phantom of the Opera, after he last sees Christine. Not the book version or the musical version or any version but the one in my head.)
-Severus Snape
-Mr. Rochester

Interesting how I don't seem to like the mixing of gender idea we recently acquired in these past 100 years or so.

Those last 5 wouldn't get on well at all.

No, they wouldn't. The idea is cracking me up, however. Got any Plotbunny-B-Gone on ya?

No, if any of those gave you a bunny, no Bunny-B-Gone for you.

*loves*

Though I did a double take at Prospero. And I'm kind of coveting a BtVS/P&P crossover. O.o With vamp!Lydia.

He is narrating the proceedings, really. And magically filling the table with food. I considered inviting five chef characters played by Gerard Depardieu.

Please tell me you are writing that.
