1) Make a list of fifteen characters first, and keep it to yourself for the moment.
2) Ask your f-list to post questions in the comments. For example: "One, nine, and fifteen are chosen by a prophecy to save the world from four. Do they succeed?", "Under what circumstances might five and fourteen fall in love?", "Which character on the list would you most want on your side in a zombie invasion?"
3) After your f-list has stopped asking questions, round them up and answer them using the fifteen characters you selected beforehand, then post them.
(Sort of like the reverse of the last one. I'd better go and make a random list).
After that, I should go write something. (And I think I miss the point of the ficlets challenge. It was supposed to be laid back, not 'how soon can I get to the end?'. Maybe I have one tiny, tiny thing in common with Lynda Day after all... )

I enjoyed re-reading Human Nature. I'm afraid Well-Mannered War eventually bored me into putting it down and not picking it back up. Which was a disappointment.
