The Voted Most Likely Tag

It's been a minute since I did a tag! And since there are several that I've been tagged for...it seems like a good time to get that ball rolling. (Also, I'm in the middle of the end of the semester, and things are stressful, so...tags.)

And because it's November, and I miss NaNoWriMo (which I definitely don't have time for, and might have politico-moral quibbles with), I'm going to finally get around to a tag which Jem tagged me for in March...the Voted Most Likely Tag!

This tag has been intimidating me for a bit because 

1. I don't talk about my writing much on the blog, so you don't really know my characters
2. I don't write to the volume that many other writers do, so I don't have that many characters
3. I've been toying with the idea of giving up on writing fiction and focusing on nonfiction, so I feel like a fake writer

But I have been tagged! So, I shoulder on! 

To give you all context for the characters I'll be referring to in this tag, a quick guide to my WIPs (or retired WIPs) and the characters therein:

Project Jacob: An extremely derivative fantasy involving dragon-type-things, a magical school, magical powers based on the four elements, and no sense of how to pace a story. (But do I still love it? Yes. Yes, I do.)
Jacob: My sweet boy, just trying to make sure no one gets hurt and that the world keeps spinning. 
Leah: Extremely hotheaded, extremely like me as a young teenager, and very likely to maim people if they hurt her friends. 
May: Soft-spoken, shy, sweet, and good with her hands. A grandma, but as a teenager. 
Mira: Extremely bubbly, bouncy, and energetic. The youngest of eight--brothers. You can guess whether she's a bit spoiled or not.

Into The Dark: Based on this Quirk
The MC: No, she doesn't have a name. Dealing With A Lot...just trying to stay alive from one day to another, and maybe find some joy in life. (A lot like me in the last few years of high school in one way or another.) She loves her family, but if only they weren't so...loud. 
Em: Basically, the MC's adopted older sister, wise beyond her years, but also trying to keep her life together while helping the MC, whose life is falling apart. 

Project Monday: Introduced (sorta) in this post
Chiara: The nerdiest sheltered homeschooler who ever lived (that's what happens when you grow up in a secret seminary)
Father Maximillian Mary: Chiara's spiritual father, very humble and soft-spoken, but with a wry sense of humor

The Novella With No Name: Very little details disclosed, but let's just say there are many babies involved
The MC: No, she doesn't have a name either. A young mother, trying not to drown in babies. 
James: The Best Husband Every, officially. Trying not to die while he finishes his surgical residency and his wife drowns in babies.
Martin: Well-intentioned, but only four.
Annemarie: Terrible Two (and that's all you need to know).
 

Now, shall we hop into the questions? 

(And yes, there is no context for the aesthetics. ;))

The Questions

. . . Most Likely to Be a Poet . . .
Probably the MC of Into the Dark. She tends to think Deep Thoughts. Going blind will do that to ya. (Milton, anyone?)

. . . Most Likely to Dance in the Rain . . .
Mira, no question. In addition to being my character who is probably most likely to do something crazy and manic-pixie-dream-girl-y like that, she also has water powers, so the rain would dance with her. 

. . . Most Likely to Look Good in a Kilt . . .
We're going to go with James. Because he is The Perfect Husband, so obviously he would look good in a kilt. (I'm not sure my MC would approve, though. I don't think she likes kilts.) (Also, how does one determine who looks good in a kilt? Jem had this question, too, and I wholeheartedly concur. It's kind of a weird criterion.)

. . . Most Likely to Get Punched in the Face . . .
Leah. She's also the one most likely to punch someone else in the face. I can absolutely see her getting in a brawl over something stupid either she or someone else said...

. . . Most Likely to Drop Everything and Become a Sheep Herder . . .
My gut is saying May, here, just because if she was a shepherd, she'd be all by herself. (But maybe Father Maximillian Mary, for the same reason.) 

. . . Most Likely to Be Found in the Library . . .
Chiara! There aren't many rooms in the underground seminary, and she's an avid reader, so both by inclination and by sheer probability, she's the character who's most likely to haunt a library. 

. . . Most Likely to Sleep Through an Earthquake . . .
Probably my Into The Dark MC. She spends a fair portion of the manuscript sleeping and/or having weird hallucination-dream things, and a lot of that time is also spent having almost no will to live, so...I don't think an earthquake would interrupt things much. (She's also one of the few characters who lives in a place where earthquakes are likely to happen, so it works on several levels!)

But also, my MC from The Unnamed Short Story is severely sleep deprived, and ALSO lives in an earthquake-prone area, so I guess it's a toss-up. 

. . . Most Likely to Steal Food from Other Peoples’ Plates . . .
Annemarie. But only because she's a two-year-old, and that is definitely in character for someone who draws on the walls and wakes up the baby by pulling on his ears. 

. . . Most Likely to Cheat on a Test . . .
See, I don't think any of my characters would be likely to cheat on a test? I mean, besides my villain from Project Jacob, who I didn't even mention, because he's just a generic I Need Revenge, Dark Aesthetic, Blood Sacrifice villain. Most of my characters are very moral? So I guess we'll go with that villain. (Thank goodness I've progressed to writing stories in which the situation is the antagonist. I am not a villain person.)

. . . Most Likely to Say “Oops” After Setting Something on Fire . . .
I'm going to say Leah, just because she has fire powers, but she's generally a good person, so she probably wouldn't set something on fire on purpose. Probably. 

. . . Most Likely to Open an Orphanage . . .
The answer to this question is a toss-up between Em, Father Maximillian Mary, and Jacob. I guess I just tend to write character who are really good at taking care of other characters (especially my MC). But of them all, I think Em's the one who'd most realistically do it. Father Maximillian Mary has a whole bunch of student brothers to worry about, and Jacob has two younger siblings, not to mention his hands full with his friends... but Em has her life in front of her, a supportive unofficial adoptive family, and a nurturing nature. 

. . . Most Likely to Run off with the Circus . . .
Mira, I think. Her bouncy nature would fit right in at a circus, plus she's the one most likely to be able to do all kinds of acrobatics. 

. . . Most Likely to Survive the Zombie Apocalypse . . .
Well, Chiara & Fr. Maximillian Mary already have, in a sense (only, the anti-Catholic apocalypse, not the zombie apocalypse). But after them, I think I'd say Jacob. He has a fair assortment of powers (that's all I'm going to reveal about that...but let's just say Chosen One vibes), and is very determined to stay alive and keep his friends alive, as well. 

. . . Most Likely to Fake Their Own Death . . .
Probably Father Maximillian Mary or Chiara, either to stay safe from the government...or just to have some time to themselves. XD (Like spiritual father, like daughter, I suppose.)

. . . Most Likely to Die and Haunt Their Friends . . .
Mira, probably, just because she'd think it's hilarious. (I don't usually write goofy characters, so she's getting more than her fair share of tag time, I think. Oh well. She was one of my favorites, so I really don't mind.)

And I Tag:
The Nutmeg, because she has all kinds of interesting characters
Sarah Seele, because ditto
The Grim Writer, because I want to hear more about her characters (including the ones she's killed...)
Anyone who wants to do this, because I'm too overwhelmed with school to tag anyone else! XD 

So, what do you think? Which of my projects sounds the most intriguing to you? Could you guess which aesthetic goes with which? What of these things are you most likely to do?
