No updates on the actual real life stuff, though I need to redouble my getting-a-job efforts; poorness encroaches ( Read more... )

Man, sometimes I am glad I don't hang out in Who-fandom. Are people SERIOUSLY that dense? My first complaint about Amy (other than "she has the same name as me and thus makes me feel weird") was "Oh god, yet another female companion who is using the Doctor to escape adult responsibilities/is clearly sweet on the Doctor ( ... )

Thanks! And yeah, I'm on the same page there, hoo boy. It does seem like they half-heartedly tried, with Mickey, and with that guy I can't remember cause he sucked... but it would be crazy fun to have a Tiger Beat-worthy male companion for the young ladyfans, to take the sexy tension spotlight off the poor Doctor. We've had freaking tons of 'omfg I must leave my sweetie for sexy Doctor' so I'd get a kick out of the OPPOSITE for once - 'omfg I must leave the Doctor for sexy companion!' and oh how fun it would be to have the Doctor ARGHing at lovey-dovey companion team (instead of secretly knowing She Likes Me Better You Poor Sod like when Mickey/Rose came along).

Seriously, I think Jamie was the last companion who had A Thing for a fellow companion (Victoria) to the point of having anything like an issue with having to decide what to do when she left the TARDIS.

Although I sometimes joke about the giant posse that the Fifth Doctor had (although I guess technically speaking the First Doctor had a pretty big group too), I really miss companions interacting with each other, and actually caring about each other. It's funny, the closest thing we have to that is Sarah Jane Adventures! (I guess the K-9 show also has a trio of teens, but I'm not sure they have the same rapport of the SJA crew.)

You are such a Who-geek, Lith. Don't change.

I swear, this summer I'll sit on my ass and watch all that Who stuff you gave me so I'll start knowing what you're talking about. &hearts

I need to get back into BF: seem to have stopped doing the things which it was the habitual soundtrack to, so need to find new audiofriendly activities. I've missed a few Hex ones, after being v meh about the Florence Nightingale one, and I love the sound of the Six/Jamie stuff soooo much. And Five plus the whole gang, wheee! Cannot wait for some new Turlough v Tegan snark (though sincerely hope they remember to Give Nyssa Stuff To Do).

I love having Who back. That year of specials was miserable. Now it feels like 'what, we get a whole new one NEXT WEEK! EEEEE!'

I'm too lazy to sign in. I like the new Doctor Who and I like Matt Smith but for some reason, I don't like his companion. I just hope that we see John Barrowman again during DW and hopefully Torchwood 4 coming out soon! Smith's new companion somewhat irritates me and sometimes annoys me. I like it better when it was Donna who was his last companion during the season. Even Donna's own granddad would have been better. I think it would have been better if the Eleventh Doctor had taken Amy Pond when she was 7. That would been awesome as we hadn't seen a child as his companion yet.

BTW, when are you going to update "Building Coincidence?" It's been like months! I've been checking every time and haven't updated!

Please PM me once you reply to this!
