Packed to the Rafters

1. Mel

2. Ben

3. Carbo

4. Retta

5. Dave

6. Julie

7. Coby

8. Ruby

9. Nathan

10. Sammy

11. Rachel

12. Jake

1. Have you ever read a Six/Eleven fic? Do you want to?

Rachel and Julie, yeah i read one about how Julie is reflecting on her life so far, and how she is proud of all her kids.

2. Do you think Four is hot? How hot?

oh yeah Retta is so frigen hot man! Jokes she is very pretty though :)

3. What would happen if Twelve got Eight pregnant?

Ruby's just a baby her self, and im pretty Sure Jake wouldn't be that way inclined so that would be a no...a firm no

4. Can you recall any fics about Nine?

I quiet like Bailey, which of course features Nathan and Sammys "child" and how that special little girl brings her separated Mummy and Daddy back together

5. Would Two and Six make a good couple?

Ummm incestuous Much...thats Bens, Mum...even if she wasn't him mum, Ben couldn't even bare the thought of seeing her pose Naked when Jules was pregnant with Ruby so...yeah definitely no attraction there LOL

6. Five/Nine or Five/Ten? Why?

Dave and Sammy or Dave and Nathan...im gunna go Dave and Nathan but obviously only in the Dad-Son relationship way...coz no offense Sammy & Dave together = ewwwww... although there was that scene in s1 where Sammy walked into the bathroom and saw Dave Getting undressed and about to go into the shower...awkward!!!

7. What would happen if Seven walked in on Two and Twelve making out?

Ummm awkward answer much but if Coby walked into Ben & Rachel kissing then Coby would probably join in LOL :)

8. Make up a summary for a Three/Ten fic.

well you know how Sammy moved into the Calamari Castle in s2? well i was actually hoping her and Carbo secretly got together, i mean the way he hugged her and was excited about her moving definitely said something LOL, but then again we are talking about Carbo so pretty much any girls stands out to him. but if i were to write a fanfic about these guys then it would definitely be set in s2 where she moved and yeah i'd definitely get them together!

9. Is there any such thing as One/Eight fluff?

Mel & Ruby having "Fluff"? ummm i dont think so!!! But one scene that was gorgeous with these two was definitely when Rachel & Jake are babysitting Ruby while and Rachel has to go to work which leaves Uncle Jakey to babysit Ruby and of course being the person Jake is he struggles babysitting Ruby, so he takes the coward option out and goes next door with Ruby & Gets Melissa and Ben who are currently thinking about having children of their own, to look after Ruby. Before this Mel was very hesitant about being a mum, but when Ruby falls asleep on Mel's chest and Ben is cuddling up to Mel on her spare side, it is evident that now is ready for Children of their own. But unfortunately Melissa didn't end up falling pregnant and ending up dying from a tragic car accident herself.

10. Suggest a title for a Seven/Twelve hurt/comfort fic.

Brotherly Comfort- ok so their not entirely brothers but Jake and Coby obviously are close due to social occasions with the Rafters and also by the fact that they work together, for Dave. So i'd base this around The Rafters death but Rachel could have died instead and Coby could be feeling Jakes pain.

11. Does anyone on your friends list read Three yet?

I mentoined Carbo slightly in My Retta fanfic, but yeah Carbo's not really that popular soooo theres not really that many stories that he features in that my friends could read about him :'(

12. Does anyone on your friends list write or draw Eleven?

Umm Yes...as much as i hate to say it, Rachel is like the most popular character that gets stories written about her.

13. Would anyone on your friends list write Two/Four/Five?

Ok i dont think nobody would ever write a story about Ben, Dave & Retta. But if were to write one it'd be focussed on Carbo and Mel are both dead and Ben and Retta have to move on so they get together, fall in love, then eventually want to get married so they have to get Dave's consent and of course hes against the idea as he thinks that first true loves are more important, and that even know both Retta and Bens respected partners are dead, that they shouldn't take things to the next level! *LOL i could so see this happening* :P

14. If you wrote a Song-fic about Eight, what song would you choose?

Lol i'd so include Ruby's main song "A Little Ray of Sunshine" if i did a fanfic on her. However i did actually write a fanfic based on the scene where that song in the show was in anyways... i called it "Welcome" and its in Rubys POV...its on my old Account though...RaftersGirl94

15. If you wrote a One/Six/Twelve fic, what would the warning be?

WARNING; Mel and Jake have been cheating on their respected partners, but what happens when Julie catches them in the act?

16. When was the last time you read a fic about Five?

Dave...umm there was that one about how Ruby is now his princess, but Rachel use to be his princess and he tells Rachel that both Ruby and Her will always be his little Princess's forever anyways!

17. "(1) and (7) are in a happy relationship until (9) runs off with (7). (1), brokenhearted, has a hot one-night stand with (11) and a brief unhappy affair with (6), then follows the wise advice of (5) and finds true love with (2).

Mel and Coby are in a happy relationship until Nathan runs off with Coby. Mel, brokenhearted has a hot one-night stand with Rachel, and a brief unhappy affair with Julie, then follows the wise advice of Dave, and finds true love with Ben. *LOL i love how Mel ends up with Ben in the end, but man are the Begining and Middle complicated, yet Funny as"
