Challenge #3: Guess Who's Coming to Dinner

In your own space, tell us who, from one of your fandoms, would you most want to have dinner with (or tea, or a random afternoon visit), And why? This could be a creator, an actor, a costumer, a set designer, a director, a character, a composer, anybody! What would you talk about? What are you dying to know?




In theory, this would be great but I know that when faced with new people I am reticent and prefer to listen than to converse. I am not quick to interact with people who I admire [and even with people I have just met].

I can talk about my favorite in a fandom but I don't know if I can talk to them face to face. I think it's difficult to interact with someone I admire because I already have this idea of them in my head and I think the interaction would by clouded by these pre-conceived notions.

I sometimes worry that I might offend someone when I leave a comment [in a fanwork, in an FB post, etc] because my conversation skills are rusty. I find myself reading and reviewing whatever I comment to see if it will not be misinterpreted.

And in the end, I sometimes end up saying "Kudos!" on a fanwork and feel as though it's not enough.
