1. What would you do if One (Danny) woke you up in the middle of the night?

Chao-(wakes up from epic YGO or PnF dream) Le gasp! Danny! Did you have an epic idea for a fan fic! Is there an awesome fan fic that Chao needs to read! Is there some wonderful artwork out there about you! Is there gonna be a sequel to the movie! Wait… you just want to know where the extra towels are? They're in the second shelf in the hallway closet… Care to talk about a few epic fan fic ideas when you’re done? Sleep? Psh, who needs that?

2. What is your reason to kill Five (Yami/Atem)?

Chao- So let's get something straight: You cared about Yugi so much that you took control and went against people in Shadow Games, but then you allowed him to take your place after you played that stupid card in season 4?

Yami- What are you talking about? That wasn't me! That was the dumb writers' idea! It wasn't part of the original manga!

Chao- Point taken. You shall not die, but you shall go under extreme emotional angst in future fan fics. But Chao wouldn't mind putting you on a bus and have you disappear forever since you can be a pain to write...

Yami- Why are you defending Yugi anyways?! I'm way more popular than him!

Chao- Because he's fun to torture! Besides, Chao likes him better than you, and that's what matters!

 3. Twelve (Knuckles) seems to be a player. Breaking many hearts. What do you say to confront him/her?

 Chao- Quit kidding yourself and go back to guarding the Master Emerald.

4.What does Four (Sonic) like best about Six (Dr. Doofenshmirtz)? 

Chao- Another day, another mad scientist to defeat? He probably wouldn't mind listening to those back stories, though. They're probably more entertaining than Robotnic's!

5. You and Two (Yugi) team up to do something, what is it?

Chao-Wait, why would Chao team up with him?

Yugi-Because we agree on certain issues.

Chao- We do? Like what? Friendship means everything? Characters should earn their happy ending?

Yugi-Well, yes. But I’m talking about those who pair me up with other guys or make me the girl! I’m obviously a boy, and I obviously have a crush on Tea!

Chao- Oh… In that case you’re on your own. And did you just proclaim your love?

Yugi- Uh...

Chao- (shrugs) It's something Chao at least acknowledges.

6. Who would Three (Phineas) jump in the way of a bullet for?

Chao- His friends and family! But he'd probably make some cool device that attracts bullets to a giant magnet or change them into candy. Delicious weapons!

7. You come into a room to find Five (Yami) and Six (Dr. Doofenshmirtz) making out. What do you do?

Chao- Where's that bazooka?

8. Two (Yugi) is trapped in the center of the earth. What does Six (Doofenshmirtz) and Nine (Pudge) do?

Chao- Well, the Drill-inator was destroyed, and there's magma in the center of the Earth, so... Good luck with that, Yugi!

9. Do you believe Eight (Shadow) and Nine (Pudge) would be ever more then friends?

Chao- It'd be hard to imagine them as friends!

10. Ten (Kaiba) seems to have a huge crush on you. Then he/she confesses this to you by text message.

Chao- Joey, did you steal Kaiba’s phone again? Or is this Mokuba’s work?

11. Twelve (Knuckles) and Thirteen (dark chao) are performing in a talent show. What do they do?

Chao-  Wow, that little chao seems to have more talent than Knuckles: He can play the horn, flute, drums, and even sing! He's clearly far more advanced than Knuckles or that Omochao!

Little dark chao- (playing a bass drum with two mallets)

Knuckles- We're supposed to be working together!

Chao- But that little chao is awesome all on his own! What can you do? Dig?

Knuckles- ...... Get down! (hits ground with knuckles)

Little dark chao- (unaffected by attack) (continues to play drum)

Chao- (is affected by attack) (forms stars of dizziness above head) That move was SUPER effective! .... But that little chao still has more talent.

12. Six (Doofenshmirtz) is sitting beside you on a beach, sleeping. What do you do?

Chao- Evil Scheme #48: Replace sun screen with cooking oil.

13. You and Seven (Sawyer) were on vacation, when suddenly you fall and break your leg. What does Seven do?

Chao- Hopefully call for an ambulance.

14. Four (Sonic) has invited everyone but you to their party. What do you do?

Chao- (has mental breakdown)

15. Who would you kill, kiss, or marry out of Nine (Pudge), Five (Yami), and Twelve (Knuckles)?

Chao-Probably wouldn’t be so bad getting a kiss from Pudge or Knuckles on the cheek. Yami, you stay away unless you want to be killed!

16. What pick up line would Nine (Pudge) use on One (Danny)?

Chao- Question does not compute.

17. One (Danny) and Three (Phineas) have been in a hotel room for MORE than a few hours. What are you thinking?

Chao- Le gasp! Is there an awesome crossover Chao should know about! (bangs on door) Let Chao in! Must read awesomness!

Chao- Well that was fun. But one thing Chao has noticed with these memes is that there's a whole list of characters, yet not everyone was used. Maybe in the time Chao had this, people had already made corrections and possibly changed the numbers? Or maybe the meme creators weren't paying attention to their work?

Doing Some Research Couldn't Hurt

Chao- Different stories that we love reading take place in different times. That is part of setting. We may read about someone's life in ancient Rome or modern times. We may see movies that take place during WWII. And once a time period has been established, readers hold certain expectations. It would be odd for a movie that took place in 1939 to have someone casually using a CD player, wouldn't it? (Unless it's some weird alternative world, but that's another case.) If you have doubts within your own memory from when you took history, you can always read a few books or browse a few website articles to refresh your mind. The Internet is used for much more than memes.

Random people- Blashphemy!

Chao- .... Anyway, here are a few sites Chao goes to a lot for different fan fics.

American Cultural History

Visual Dictionary Clothing

Visual Dictionary Music

Animal Group Names

Armour Diagrams

20000-names.com (A good place for naming characters by origin, countires, meanings, etc.)

Flower Meanings (Chao- This is where Chao got a bit of inspiration for writing the Phineas and Ferb fic The Flower in the Vase.)

Chao- But research doesn't have to be limited to history. If you're looking for a way to make your stories more realistic, just do some research. You don't have to focus on just history; you could do some reading on different cultures, religious and political views, clothing, and celebrations. Even if you are using something that is already familiar to you, like a type of dish, include a little description as not everyone will be familiar with what you are talking about. For example, many are already familiar with the hamburger, but what about something made from lamb or ox? But if you're keeping it to a simple story, it just helps to insert illustrations through words, like with clothing or furniture. Of course, when in doubt about something, use Wikipedia!

Updates for March

Chao- Wow, can't believe it's already March! Hopefully better weather will be coming. Whoever heard of a freeze warning for a desert? All these plants had to be covered with blankets and towels, so they wouldn't die! It was ridiculous! Enough about that. Here's some stuff about fan fics.


Yu-Gi-Oh: Offspring of Heroes will be updated as soon as new chapters are written. That story is more than halfway done. A spin-off to the one shot Comfort Objects should be out this month. Where I Belong is getting looked over again.

Chao- Once Chao finds time, the promised sequel to Present with You Always should be underway. Should that be posted in the summer, so those who have school will have something to read over their break? At least it'll give Chao to write out a lot, so it can be posted without much trouble.

Phineas and Ferb: No current news at this time.

Chao- Hope those who had stopped by this blog have found advice using PnF characters helpful!

Cats Don't Dance: No current news at this time.


Chao- Another month, another update.

YChao- BTW, how is your status for cleaning your room going?

Chao- Um....

YCha- You placed a pause on it because you don't want to organize it, didn't you?

Chao- Well, all that's left are the misc. items... but how does someone go about cleaning that? How do people organize their misc. items anyway?! They're misc. for a reason!

YChao- And, of course, you just had to go buy more books and DVDs, didn't you...

Chao- It's important to buy stuff at used book stores. You never know when they'll be off the shelves! And sometimes buying the stuff online can be so expensive! On the bright side, Chao never knew just how big some of these drawers for a desk can be! And there are so many fun toys too!

YChao- Can you see the ground in your room yet?

Chao- Almost. Now there are just boxes of unorganized stuff. Curse you misc. items!
