From grammarwoman:

Given the group of 1 (B'Elanna), 3 (Neal Caffrey), 7 (Scully), 9 (Parker), and 14 (Toothless): who fills each role in their 5 man band? What role does their group serve?

From that link, here are the members of a five-man band. My favorite part is that there are 3 women, and none of them are the chick.

The Leader — (lead singer) The leader of the group. Clearly this is Scully.
The Lancer — (lead guitar) Usually a contrast to The Leader. Parker! :D :D :D
The Smart Guy — (keyboardist) The physically weak, but intelligent or clever member. Neal Caffrey!
The Big Guy — (drummer) The strongman of the team. B'Elanna, OF COURSE.
The Chick — (vocal effects, tambourine) A peacekeeping role to balance out the other members' aggression, bringing them to a nice or at least manageable medium. The Chick is often considered the heart of the group. AHAHAHAHAH THIS IS TOOTHLESS.

There could be a case for switching Neal and Scully, but honestly? I think Scully'd be a better leader of a dragon squadron in Temeraire-verse. :D :D :D :D :D

2 (Fiona), 8 (River), 10 (Mako), 13 (Jeeves): when they get together, is it for a book club, stitch'n'bitch, RPG/boardgame group, or potluck gathering? Depending on which is chosen, what's their favorite book genre/craft/game/cuisine?

Okay, seriously, for these four, I'd have said karate class, but if I have to stick with the given options, pretty sure they're playing a D&D tabletop game where Jeeves is the DM (I WANT JEEVES AS MY DM), Fi is playing a barbarian, River is playing a sorcerer, and Mako is playing a ranger.

4 (Cougar) & 6 (Spike) play a game of "Marry, Shag, Cliff" with 5 (Ronon), 11 (Black Hat), and 12 (Charlie) as the options. What are their choices?

Oh, this is interesting! Cougar is probably the easiest, there, I think he'd kill Black Hat, shag Charlie and marry Ronon. Spike is tougher – especially if he's evil or mostly evil Spike. I think he'd probably shag Charlie, too, and have no idea which one of Ronon and Black Hat he would marry or kill – I think, in the end, he'd probably marry with Black Hat just because he's a vampire too and Ronon's probably pretty tasty.

Which person on the list is 15's (Reid) best friend, and who is their worst enemy?

I think enemy is easiest because it's obviously a bad guy. So that leaves Spike (6) or Black Hat (11), and they're both vampires, so I think that's probably not going to end well for Reid. D:

As for his bestie, while I think there are many options (Scully (7) and Reid, FBI besties!), I think it would be Charlie (12).

From recessional:

One (B'Elanna) and nine (Parker) end up with custody of a small child for twenty four hours. How does THAT go?

Ahahaha, wellllllllllll… pre-finale B'Elanna and Parker, it's probably a nightmare (and I think recruitment of other crew and/or team members is likely to happen). After B'Elanna has her own small child, it's probably not so bad… just making sure Parker doesn't get into any trouble or teach the kid things it's best they not know at that age.

From synecdochic:

if 5 (Ronon) and 11 (Black Hat) met for coffee and it wound up with 11 dumping coffee in 5's lap, who would it be and why? Accidental, deliberate, klutziness, etc?

Ahahaha, pretty sure it'd be on purpose, as a getaway maneuver as soon as Ronon discovered Black Hat was a Wraith in disguise. I've often wondered if Ronon and Teyla maybe believe that the vampire legends are based on the Wraith.

6 (Spike) and 9 (Parker) go on a road trip! what happens next?

I'm pretty sure there's a worldwide trail of missing diamonds and dead people and lots and lots of crazy laughter.

what's 3's (Neal Caffrey) favorite type of cookie?

You know? I have no idea. I don't think it's mentioned in canon, but Neal doesn't seem like a big cookie sort of guy. Too lowbrow. I can't think of a highbrow cookie to save my life. But if there is such a thing as a highbrow cookie, I assume that's what Neal likes.

From bethctg:

8 (River) and 12 (Charlie) start a business together. What kind of business is it, and what is the role of each of them in it? Which of the 15 characters would call upon their service?

Oh boy. Well. River and Charlie are kind of polar opposites, really. I think Charlie would be scared of River, tbh. But I could see them working together in the name of good, vaguely like Finch and Reese in POI. So I can see them being problem solvers/protectors of a sort, I guess? And that's a lot like the Burn Notice people, so I can see them working with Fi, maybe, and calling on Neal, maybe, but I don't really see anyone on my list asking them for help, honestly. Though if I was writing fic, I'm pretty sure I could come up with reasons for any of them to require their help. Because fic.

From clavally:

If 1 (B'Elanna), 2 (Fiona), 6 (Spike), 7 (Scully), 10 (Mako), and 15 (Reid) go to an amusement park; who is who's coaster buddy? Also, is there someone that refuses to ride the roller coaster and goes and hangs out in the arcade? Does one of them drag the others to the live shows? Does one of them like the water rides more than the other rides?

Yeah, I'm betting Fi and Spike are off riding the biggest, baddest roller coasters they can find with Mako and B'Elanna, while Scully and Reid figure out how to win all the prize games and end up with giant stuffed animals they make Spike and B'Elanna carry around with them. Pretty sure Reid would insist on going to all the shows, too, especially fireworks, if they had any.

From ilthit:

Monster AU: What kind of supernatural monsters would 2 (Fiona), 5 (Ronon) and 13 (Jeeves) be and how would that change them? (If the character is a monster, reverse this to make them non-supernatural.)

Ohhh, this is fascinating. Good choosing to pick three actual humans! I'm not into werewolves, but the pack dynamics here would be SO interesting. Ronon's clearly a lone wolf type during his running years, and I would love to see Fi be the alpha of a pack (which Ronon joins later, of course), because she's awesome. Jeeves would make sure there was always enough tea, clothes for whenever they shifted out, and keeping them off the local law enforcement's radar.

15 (Reid) is faced with a crime mystery. What do they do?

Hee, this is the easiest one. He calls up the BAU and they investigate! :D

10 (Mako) and 11 (Black Hat) have accidentally got married while drunk. Now what?

Hm. Well, Black Hat's pretty hot. If Mako doesn't try to kill him on principle (assuming the Kaiju has somehow made humanity and the vampires work together), then I think, unless something strange happened that makes them drift-compatible (and really, HOW COOL WOULD THAT BE!?) then they get a nice annulment and say their goodbyes.

1 (B'Elanna), 14 (Toothless), 8 (River) and 3 (Neal) are playing poker for high stakes. Who wins? Did they cheat? How do the others react?

Neal wins, he definitely cheated, and River caught him because mind-reading. And Toothless licked him and stuck all the cards to the table so he couldn't do it again.
