Non-Rec: Socializing, the Introvert's Ultimate Challenge

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? Leave a comment in this post saying you did it. Include a link to your post if you feel comfortable doing so.

Oh man, this is SUCH a good challenge. I am an introvert's introvert to be sure so the thought of a dinner party is just overwhelming but having little "get to know you" outings with a person would be super cool. The first one I could think of was spending a morning in a coffee shop with Jane Austen people-watching and trading observations about the other customers and baristas. I feel like she would have had fun and entertaining insights about people viewed even casually. I also would not mind going to lunch with Foggy Nelson, I feel like he would be both fun and funny to hang out with. I would love to attend a hobbit's tea with Bilbo Baggins, who I feel would be a good host as well as being a storyteller par excellence. Hmm, then maybe an evening walk with Din Djarin and little Grogu, something chill and quiet.

There are many more I'm sure, but this sounds like a full day of socializing and I would probably need a few days to recover after. ;D

That sounds like a very intense day, but potentially a lot of fun! :D

[isabellerecs]

Oh yay, I'd definitely need a lie-in the next day but it would certainly be one to remember. :D

[paulamcg]

That sounds like an awesome day indeed! It's wonderful how you explain your choices, and I certainly wouldn't mind a hobbit's tea and some storytelling!

[isabellerecs]

I figured that it would have to be tea because I don't think I could acquit myself well enough to attend a regular hobbit meal. ;D They'd have to be nice long stories so I could recover enough to waddle out even then, lol.

[paulamcg]

You've planned your day carefully - great! :)

[turps]

I agree that would be a great day.

I love the idea of a hobbit's tea with Bilbo Baggins. I imagine the food would be good and the stories interesting,

[isabellerecs]

Oh, I think so. Especially with old Bilbo. :D

[corvidology]

Excellent choices! I think the walk with Din Djarin and Grogu would be particularly lovely. :D

[isabellerecs]

Aw, thanks! And after my big hobbit tea, I'd have all sorts of interesting leftovers to feed the little guy so he wouldn't be bored or hungry. (Just no frog eggs O_o) And I feel like Din is a guy that doesn't mind a little silence, and I appreciate that. :D

[lunabee34]

These are all excellent choices.

Foggy is so sweet. He would be a lot of fun hang with.

[isabellerecs]

I feel like he'd be a no-pressure sort of lunch date guy. As long as one does not get sucked into Matt's drama, lol.

[thisbluespirit]

Aw, those are fun possiblities!

[isabellerecs]

:D

[shipperslist]

Ohh, people watching and tea at Hobbiton? I'd like that even though I'm pretty sure I'd be in a food coma after that. But worth it, totally.

[isabellerecs]

Oh, no I would ~definitely~ be in a food coma after eating with a hobbit. But as you say, worth it. :D

[tsuki_no_bara]

after a hobbit tea you probably wouldn't need dinner.... but the stories would be amazing. (also the food. :D ) and foggy would indeed be fun to have lunch with. i think he'd make a good lunch date.

[isabellerecs]

I definitely agree with all this! :D I probably wouldn't need to eat until the day after honestly. The evening walk would be more of a waddle, lol.

[sjh2009]

I love people watching and I think Jane Austen would be s fantastic person to people watch with.

[isabellerecs]

I'd first thought about Elizabeth Bennet, but thought that it would be better to go right to the source of such marvelous observations of human nature. :D

[majorr]

I would like to crash your lunch with Foggy. lol He made my list too. He's one of those characters that I definitely feel would be fun to hang out with.

[isabellerecs]

The more the merrier! Lol, he would be. :D

[bold_seer]

I like your answers! Introvert's introvert - one person at a time, please. Jane Austen and coffee, nice pick. I would've chosen Bilbo for tea, as well. Dress code: no jewellery.

[isabellerecs]

Thanks! "Dress code: no jewellery." ~Absolutely! :D
