OOC - In Game Pop Culture

Thanks to the fantastically OCD [livejournal.com profile] courier_gavin, we have a pop culture list.

However, I realized that people often mention these shows in game and make up meta names for the various characters and we don't have a list of those. (And yes, I realized this because I want Marie to write Vanessa Saturn fanfic in the Writing Workshop and I can't remember the meta names for Logan or Duncan).

At any rate -- Lorelai's going to be teaching a class in the fall where I will actually need this information, so if you could reply here and let me know what meta things you've mentioned in game, it would be a huge help.

ETA: To clarify: I'd like the meta information for any fandoms that have been mentioned in game (I know Nadia watches AKA all the time, etc) so I can make a comprehensive list for my class stuff.

These are the tidbits I've been using for Willow's Bitterwoman fanfic:

Howard: Dark-haired Marine, tall, older, Texan, supposedly in love with Cathy Carter/Bitter Woman, muscular, former FBI agent, diabetic in canon, short hair, blue eyes.

Trevor: younger, eager young newspaper reporter, Californian, blonde, Harvard grad, unappreciated for his research efforts, wears brightly-colored shirts, loves baked goods, 5 ft 11 in, brown eyes.

Cathy Carter: Bitter Woman, wears glasses in her canonically secret identity, pet cat Fluffykins. Enemies include Lioness and her Pride of Evil.

YES I AM THIS GEEKY, SHUT UP.

Ahem.

I've also got some made up meta for Gay As Blazes that Angel mentioned in game at some point, but I have to track it down.

I can't tell if it's sadder that I made a tickler file for this, or that I spent time researching Wonder Woman history so I could get the injokes right. ;)

I can't either, but you're my kind of geek.

If you made bondage jokes I'd be impressed.

Willow's working up to that. She's shy.

But it's not dirty at all! Really! It's just a game!

See? (http://work-magazine.com/blog/wonder_woman.jpg)

Really.

No... Really.

I'm serious.

Stop laughing.
