dies mercuri: where heroes die

[firefox1490.livejournal.com]

Back for my third day I'm firefox1490. I feel like I'm posting at a really strange time but I figure someone somewhere is awake. Anyway lets do this.

Today's theme is "Where heros die". Everyone sooner or later dies. Terrible and depressing I know. Todays for our favorite hero and their death, may it be an epic death where they go out in a blaze of glory or a quiet whisper where they simply fade away.

Please forget the rules:
* Three prompts per fandom, and no more than five total. If one of your prompts is filled, you may post another.
* No spoilers for new shows/seasons until at least one week after airing.
* If your fill do contains spoilers, please warn accordingly and leave enough space for people to pass by.

To help the hardworking codemonekys please format your prompts as such:

Format:
Fandom, Character, Prompt
Fandom, Character/Character, Promp

Example
DCU; Tim Drake; One day he simply didn't show up.
The Fast and the Furious Series; Brian O'Conner; For every runner there's a finish line sooner or later
Super Mario Brothers; Mario; It's nice to come home and know the princess is in this castle.

If nothing strikes your fancy feel free to check out the lonely prompts, they always need a bit more love.

I didn't forget all my Spanish

Even though I have my driver's license, I still take the bus. Some of the buses have TV/computer screens and show Transit TV and one of the programs is "Exercise Your Mind" where they have trivia and you can email in the correct answer for prizes.

Wednesday of last week, I entered the Wheel of Fortune like challenge. The correct answer was "on the same page". I got it correct, but didn't win the prize. Last Friday, I entered this challenge where 2 phrases were spoken in 2 different languages and you had to translate 1 (or both) to English. The phrase I translated was "cerrar la puerta". SO FRIGGIN' EASY! Where I live, it's IMPOSSIBLE NOT to pick up on SOME Spanish. Plus, I did take Spanish in high school. The correct answer is "close the door".

Here's the tweet telling everyone I won!

Lizet E, on line127, is the winner of the EYE challenge! Spanish-"Close the Door", Tagalog-"Would you like some Water"! Nice Work!

Prizes. You win prizes if your name is chosen. I don't remember exactly what my prize was, but the possible prizes were: a 7 day TAP pass (bus pass), 2 tickets to the Hollywood Bowl (I think this is what I won), 2 movie tickets or 2 tickets to San Diego Zoo (or Wild Animal Park or the Safari thingy they have). I don't know how long it takes for them to mail out prizes, but when it comes I'll be sure to take a picture.

Also, lesson learned. Play the Tranist TV trivia. You never know when you're going to win! Plus, you might surprise yourself with how much you actually know or learn something new.

IF YOU DON'T WANT TO BE SPOILED, DON'T CLICK THE CUT-TAG!

I'm not getting comments sent to me.

I watched series 1 of Downton Abbey and I really enjoyed it.

If I talk about series 1 outside of a cut tag, that's not spoilers, right? I mean, series 2 just ended last month, right? so I don't have to cut tag, this, right? I know it might sound flippant, but I'm also curious.

( aww hell, I'll cut anyways )

I think that's all the shocking stuff from series 1 I can remember.

I don't know when I'll get to watch series 2, but I'm anxious to start it.
