That number/character meme:

9 Faramir
10 Garak

12 Harriet Vane
13 John Watson (Sherlock canon)
14 Hermione Granger
15 Remus Lupin
Liz Shaw is doing a painting. Benjamin January and John Watson are their models. What scene does it depict, and is it any good?
… I am boggling at this, although the easiest part to answer is the last question (it’s not. Liz does not strike me as a painter). I suspect that the Doctor is behind it, though I’m not sure how.
Minerva McGonnagal and Remus Lupin set out to circumnavigate the globe. What mode(s) of transport do they choose? Was it a good choice to employ Spock as fixer and Garak as translator? Will Susan Ivanova win their bet that they won't be able to do it?
Well, obviously they win their bet and Ivanova loses - despite the fact that Garak is absolutely useless as a translator, what with him being a Cardassian. He enjoys making sarcastic comments from the sidelines - until McGonnagal threatens to turn him into a newt. Spock is a perfectly decent, hard-working and competent fixer - but he can’t shake the suspicion they would have managed fine without him. On the other hand, he finds the subject of magic endlessly fascinating.
Modes of transport? Broomsticks, obviously.
Susan Ivanova and John Watson enter a marriage of convenience to escape the evil machinations of Faramir. When they get involved with Kira Nerys and Alastair Lethbridge-Stewart, who falls for who?
I think Ivanova and Watson would probably get on, but in a platonic way that would involve lots of silent drinking and exchanging terrifying stories about messed up things they have seen in the line of duty once they’d got two thirds of the way through the bottle. And I can see Ivanova and Kira having lots in common - and not just the commanding officer with a religious destiny! They might well hit it off romantically, too. Either way, as a team they’d be formidable, and evil! Faramir wouldn’t stand the chance. I suspect Watson and Lethbridge-Stewart would end up bearing respectful witness to their awesomeness - and then retiring to the bar for whisky and an exchange of even more alarming anecdotes.
Benjamin Sisko is the Chosen One of prophecy. With sidekicks Spock and Faramir, do they defeat the Dark Lord John Watson?
Depends. Is Sherlock on John’s side, or is he sitting it out? If the former, probably not (though Spock versus Holmes would be a fascinating spectacle). If not, they’d win. Especially as Sisko is the chosen one of Prophecy, so has a certain amount of experience. I see Faramir as more in the providing logistics and tactful back-up role, incidentally.
Spock and Faramir are captured by the Borg. How do they escape the machinations of the Borg Queen, Alastair Lethbridge-Stewart? And why does Liz Shaw hesitate before trying to rescue them?
Because she’s trying to get her head round the Brig as a cyborg in drag, I expect. Answering the first point, through a combination of telepathic suggestion and computer skills, and appealing to Borg! Lethbridge-Stewart’s hidden but still extant sense of humanity, so that he falls on Faramir’s sword and they escape in the confusion. (Yes, I know, this bears a certain resemblance to that episode where the Cybermen cyberize the dead. Everyone thinks the Brig is that awesome).
Hermione Granger is put in charge of the crew of Serenity. How does that work out?
Initially, laughably badly. Hermione thinks they’re a bunch of flaky crooks (except possibly Simon)- and she _really_ doesn’t like Jayne. Jayne really doesn’t like her, too, and has to be repeatedly told not to ‘accidentally’ space her or drop a barrel on her. Things only improve when Inara (who has, after all, experience dealing with principled/ self-righteous types with sticks up their asses) pulls Hermione aside and tells her about the aftermath of the war, as well as what happened to River, and suddenly Hermione is happy to put her talents in the service of justice. She accidentally ends up leading a second and more successful rebellion.
Kira Nerys and Mary Lamington are thrown together in a whirlwind romance that is also a wacky comedy of errors! What happens?
I have very little idea, but it would involve spyhattery and would end badly for anyone who got in their way….
