It's weird having classes again - and January term at Ottawa U law school is especially weird since I only have one class every day for three weeks. I also do not have the course book yet, so I'm slightly bored.

Look, a meme from pretty much everyone on my flist:

Ask me one fandom-related question in the comments. This can be fandom specific, general, or about fandom/lj stuff/fic writing/etc. in general. Favourite character, favourite moment, unpopular opinion, something about a fic of mine... whatever. Wackiness encouraged.

For the train ride back to Ottawa, I put on Doctor Who Confidential which made me CRY ALL OVER AGAIN. And I watched the whole thing, which is unusual for me since usually I get impatient when they spend 20 minutes explaining some CGI affect they did. But... woe.

Anyway, at some point a woman considered sitting down next to me, but after one look at me evidently decided that sitting next to the crazy person weeping to herself was not a good plan and sat next to someone else instead. OKAY, FINE. I mean, I was grieving okay.

So on a Crazy Scale of 1 - 10 in terms of dealing with the death of a fictional character, I would say that I'm at about 6. Clearly this is good progress.

Some bits from the Confidential )

In non-Doctor Who related news:

-It has been snowing for three days. I am eyeing the sky suspiciously. Humph.

-Jean Chretien the Fish survived two weeks on his own, hoorah! At first I was baffled because it didn't look like he'd eaten any of the food block I left for him but then I finally found some fish shaped teeth marks on the bottom of it, which... okay, he is a pretty small fish. I knew Jean Chretien could last through anything.

-I'm hopefully meeting up with my BFF [info]_thirty2flavors some time tomorrow so we can cry on each other. IT WILL BE FUN. I bet you're all jealous.

-I guess school starts tomorrow or something. Humph.

I totally slept fitfully last night. DAMNIT, SHOW. You have this not entirely pleasant way of getting inside of me.

One thing niggling at me from EoTii )

There was even a write up in the Montreal Gazette today about the Death of Tennant. Not a very long write-up, mind you, but it still validated me in this odd way. I am not alone!

I found some chocolate I had stashed away in my suitcase and now I am pretty much stuffing my face and crying at weird intervals. THIS IS PERFECTLY NORMAL.

End of Tennant Part II – Um, this got a little image heavy on me *COUGHS* )

There is some D/R content if you want to link, [info]the_spdn.

Apparently going one day without posting about Doctor Who is not acceptable.

Christmas episodes in order of preference. Apparently there have been five of them! Who knew? (Spoilers for End of Time Part 1) )

Thanks to [info]mrv3000 whose End of Time and Voyage of the Damned caps I stole. I really need to get myself some more Voyage of the Damned screencaps. Humph. Bad fangirl.

Title: Stolen Kisses
Pairing: Ten/Rose
Summary: What’s crossing universes after breaking the most fundamental rule of time travel? Nothing.
Spoilers: Waters of Mars
Rating: PG13
A/N: Not betaed so I apologize in advance for any typos that got by me.
Excerpt: She gives him a long, inquisitive look and he shifts uncomfortably, feeling like his ruse is plain as day. Maybe his other self doesn’t wear the blue suit anymore. Maybe he hates ties. Maybe he picked the wrong pair of trainers. Maybe they’re not even together—no, that’s not a thought he likes to dwell on. Of course they are.

(The sleeves of his blue suit feel too starched and his tie too tight.)

When you see this, post a quote some quotes from the Tenth Doctor:

Doctor: It is! It's the City of New New York! Strictly speaking, it's the fifteenth New York since the original. So that makes it New New New New New New New New New New New New New New York. …what?
Rose: You’re so different.
Doctor: New, new Doctor!
-(that sound you heard back in 2006 was hundreds of fangirls going “guh” and falling on the floor), New Earth

Doctor: It's weird, I mean -- you're not special, you're not powerful, you're not connected, you're not clever, you're not important...
Donna: This friend of yours, just before she left, did she punch you in the face? Stop bleeping me!
-The Runaway Bride

Lilith: And as for you, Sir Doctor!... Fascinating. There is no name. Why would a man hide his title in such despair? Oh, but look. There’s still one word with the power that aches.
Doctor: Your naming won’t work on me.
Lilith: But your heart grows cold. The north wind blows and carries down the distant... Rose.
Doctor: Oh, BIG mistake ‘cos that name keeps me fighting!
-(yeah, definitely another 'GUH' moment for me), The Shakespeare Code

You see? Used the regeneration energy to heal myself, but as soon as that was done, I didn't need to change. I didn't want to, why would I? Look at me!

Title: Awake and Dreaming
Characters/Pairings: Ten + companions (Donna, Sarah Jane, Rose, the Master, Martha, Jack); some Ten/Rose
Summary: The Tenth Doctor spends his last moments with some old friends.
Spoilers: Some references to ‘The Wedding of Sarah Jane Smith’ and ‘Children of Earth;’ NO spoilers for the finale/specials.
Rating: PG
A/N: I started working on this aaages ago before any of the casting spoilers for End of Time were out, but I was inspired to finish and post it before David Tennant bows out. The idea borrows heavily from a Firefly fic I wrote a number of years back: Mirage. But, hey, it’s not stealing if you take from yourself, right? Right.
Excerpt: It’s Donna and it can’t be Donna because he wiped all her memories and left her behind on Earth and remembering him would kill her and anyway he’s alone, he knows he’s alone.

“Right,” he declares to nothing in particular, falling over his own feet as he stumbles into the TARDIS.

Evidence shows that writing regeneration fic helps one cope with the inevitable. *WIBBLES*

Prompts were here.

Um, I ended up kind of writing these as all part of the same canon. I mean, some definitely relate more to each other than others, and I think they can probably be read as standalones, but I think it works better as one fic starting from the beginning. Also, some prompts were definitely followed more closely than others. XD

Pairing: Jack & Rose, friendship, post-The Doctor Dances
For [info]demosthenes91

Jack’s got a good grip around her waist, which she reckons is good since she’s listing heavily to one side and staying upright feels like more of a challenge than hanging onto a barrage balloon during the London blitz. )

****

Pairing: Nine/Rose, Jack
Prompt: Birds
For [info]alex_caligari

Rose sits on the pilot chair, swinging her legs back and forth and trying not to be sick all over the console room floor. )

****

Pairing: Ten/Rose, post-TCI and post-GiF
Prompt: Locked in a room on the TARDIS
For [info]robynadele0406

Rose thumps her fists against the door before sagging and leaning heavily against it. )

****

Pairing: Ten/Rose
Prompts: (1) The Doctor lost a bet and Rose can do with him anything she wants, (2) Breakfast, and (3) The Doctor needing to be distracted from rambling about Time Lord science
For [info]teruel_a_witch, [info]scornedsaint, and [info]thegirlwhoflies

The Doctor’s voice sounds high and panicked and it’s enough to rouse her. )

****

Pairing: Doctor/Rose
Prompt: "Tie your heart at night to mine love, and both will defeat the darkness.” Yeah, I have no idea how I got this out of that prompt.
For [info]johnmayergirl23

Her fingers are cold, but she keeps them curled around the yellow disk. )

****

Pairing: Ten II/Rose
Prompt: Your song is ending soon.
For [info]helygen

Your song is ending soon. )

[info]_thirty2flavors painstakingly put together a post that details the 10 Steps to Crazy Ten, which is both hilarious and kind of heartbreaking. But mostly hilarious. :D :D :D

I feel stressed about this for the following reasons:

I. My last exam is on Monday and basically I am feeling like this about it: Remember how I took Competition law this semester? Remember how I didn't really understand any of it or pay much attention during lectures? ...yeah.

Also, since school starts again on Monday January 4, my holidays do not even span two weeks. I am justified in feeling slightly irritated about this, right? HUMPH.

II. The Doctor Who Christmas Special airs in a week. AND GODDAMNIT I HAVE SO MUCH FIC TO EDIT AND POST BEFORE I GET JOSSED. D: D: D: Crazy Ten, you were not with us long enough for me to play with.

I've finished a number of holiday drabbles, but... um.... they're not very good. And I really don't mean that in a "please stroke my ego" kind of way. They could probably use a lot of editing, but I really don't have time. So I'm debating whether or not it would be too embarrassing to post them as is.

III. I should probably start Christmas shopping.

IV. I think I need to go look at youtube videos of puppies to calm myself or something. *breathes*

I've been trying to figure out how I should spend New Year's. Basically, I think my options look somewhat like this:

A). Stay in Vermont with my parents. Probably go out with my dad & stepmum like I did last year. Drinking will likely be a must.

B). Head up to Montreal - a place where I feel happy. This will be particularly problematic and confusing.

C).



Suggestions? Recommendations? A hand to hold?

I stumbled across this video on Youtube last night and it basically made me go :D :D :D, so here it is:



Spoilers through to Waters of Mars. It is very important to note that Crazy destroying-the-universe-by-changing-the-fixed-point-in-time-that-is-Firefly's-cancellation Ten is also crazy hot. Yes.


I had to be up early for a thing on campus today, and winter is wearing me out. So much slush and ice and uncleared sidewalks. Ottawa, your snow clearing is worse than it ever was in Montreal, and you don't even have a mafia so I dunno WTF the excuse is. Basically, I am ready for an afternoon nap, but instead I have to head out and take another exam. *FLOPS*
