Pairing: Ten/Rose, late S2
Summary: If Rose hadn’t been on her hands and knees and puking into a toilet, she might have smacked him.

A/N: [info]mylittlepwny requested Ten/Rose, carnival, Italy for the stump the author meme. I'm not really sure how "carnival" led my brain to "vomit" but I'm convinced that if anyone could make throwing up cute, it would be the Doctor and Rose.

Thanks to [info]shinyopals for betaing and not defriending me when I send her weird emails requesting British synonyms for the word "vomit."

Betaed by [info]shinyopals. *smooch*

(Oi, just ‘cos something is different, doesn’t mean it’s bad. Honestly, you lot have a dessert called ‘spotted dick.')

I love Montreal dearly, but January isn't the best time to visit. Really.

-Gmail changed the location of their tags and while I think I approve of this change, it's currently messing with my head.

-The Doctor Who movie speculation is starting to make me a little nutty. It reminds me of all those tabloids who reported that Billie Piper would be returning for S4 for months before there was anything official about it. Ahhh. AHHHHHH. I just want to know. *twitch*

-I think I need to stop posting to LJ and go to bed. Course selection is tomorrow. *twitches again*

So I was up at our lake house last week. While the Rest of Canada was suffering through a blistering heat wave (and while Ontario's liquor board threatened to go on strike), I was lounging by the lake in the sun and working on my tan.

Anyway, as it is Canada Day, and the great Canadian wilderness tends to be a common Canadian theme, I have a couple of pics.

I couldn't find an image that properly summed up my deeply complex feelings for this country. So I used MS Paint to make one instead! How else would you know where I'll be located for tomorrow's today's celeberations? And what our Parliament buildings actually look like?

AND YES, THE PROPORTIONS ARE TOTALLY ACCURATE.

[info]Someone has suggested to [info]Opal that she should come to Canada and sample a corn dog. However, I find this weird and American. Clearly if you're going to kill your arteries, you have to go for the poutine.

[info]_thirty2flavors and I got Chinese food and timbits and spent our Saturday making fun of Torchwood and actually watching Doctor Who. At some point while watching Planet of the Ood, we launched into a pretty intense debate on whether peeling off your skin and turning into an Ood was made out of more WTF than the Doctor growing out of his own severed hand... and into a half-human hybrid.

Naturally, we happily reminisced over all the other WTF moments in the show over the last few years and turned it into a poll: Doctor Who "science." For the sake of your mental health, do not think too deeply on any of the options, and if you feel a headache coming on, stop immediately and go watch Torchwood. It makes everything in Doctor Who seem coherent in comparison.


In other news, I arrived back in Ottawa this afternoon and it is very, very warm here. I dragged my fan up from the basement, but I'm still sitting in the living room and sweating copiously. I'd like to go back to the country now.

Title: Another Family Sunday
Pairing: Ten II/Rose
Summary: “Rose,” he said, in that deadly serious Earth-on-the-brink-of-destruction voice, “the goat is an alien.” The admission probably would have been more convincing if the Doctor wasn’t squatting in the middle of a petting zoo, his nose sunburned and peeling, and the reportedly alien goat eyeing his tie like it would be a tasty afternoon snack.

A/N: [info]_thirty2flavors prompted me with Ten II and Rose at a petting zoo after I failed at the stump the author meme. This is slightly cracky. And by “slightly,” I mean "a lot."

When you see this, post five seven unpopular fandom opinions in your journal.

Lol. I've totally done this meme before, but I love it. :D

Unpopular opinions on Doctor Who, Supernatural, HIMYM, LOST, and Firefly. )

Two other things amusing me this morning:

-Possible spoilers for a Children in Need special? Lol, it sounds too much like some cracky fannish fantasy to be true. But at least there probably will be a CIN Special, yay! Oh, David Tennant, you just can't let go of this character, can you? (mooooviiiiessss pls?).

-24 Things to Love about Quebec. All of those are so true. I <3 that province. I don't know how I'm going to last another three years in Ontario. It's just not the same.

Much as I love hanging out in Doctor/Rose fandom, I sometimes find myself yearning for a little more Martha love. I think there’s this weird thing in this fandom—this unwritten rule that says you’re not allowed to be a huge Rose fan and Martha fan at the same time.

Well, um, that unwritten rule is kind of nutty, and I’m pretty convinced that there has to be other people out there who are like me and love them both fiercely. ([info]shinyopals and I were just talking about this today - SO THAT'S ONE OTHER PERSON.)

Rose and Martha Picspam and Tribute )

ETA: This is really a big post of YAY and SQUEE for me, so while I normally love discussion, I'd appreciate it if comments focused on how Martha and/or Rose = awesome. :D

I haven't written much in a while and it bothers me. Starting with drabbles sounds like a wise plan. (Though they will probably be longer than drabble length. I'm just putting this disclaimer on now before some people get twitchy about it.)

1.) Go to my Doctor Who/Firefly master fic list and pick out a line or two from one of my stories. (Must be a full line, please -- no sentence fragments or speech tags or other such nonsense.)
2.) I will respond with which story of mine I think it's from.
3.) A drabble to anyone who stumps me. If you do stump me, feel free to request a situation and characters.

Anything earlier than my Firefly stuff does not count for the purposes of this meme. *nods*

HELP ME BREAK MY WRITER'S BLOCK? :)

For some reason, I was curious about how many Eleven shipping communities have already been created. I could only find [info]eleven_rose, which made me LOL. Doctor/Rose shippers win again, fandom.

Poll #1408670 'Shipping Eleven
Open to: All, detailed results viewable to: All

In anticipation of Series 5, I'm all ready shipping

View Answers

Eleven/Rose - So what if his hair isn't as good as Ten's? Or that she suddenly seems too old for him? And okay, so she has her own Ten now, but he... could die of metacrisis. Or Rose could be immortal. Yeah.
18 (19.8%)

Eleven/Jack - They totally have a hot fling together even though the Doctor still never returns Jack's phone calls.
16 (17.6%)

Eleven/New Companion - We might not have a name for her yet, but she has pretty hair! And is age appropriate.
11 (12.1%)

Eleven/Romana - Because... because?
7 (7.7%)

Eleven/New Companion As Regenerated Romana - Because that's... cooler than just Romana.
6 (6.6%)

Eleven/River Song - Because it's totally canon! Maybe! And he told her his name. Ooh.
7 (7.7%)

Eleven/Martha - After her marriage to Tom falls through, the Doctor actually notices her existence as Eleven.
1 (1.1%)

Eleven/Master - Pfft, you don't think the Master is *really* dead, do you?
12 (13.2%)

Eleven/Ten/Rose - It seems slightly less awkward and confusing than Ten/Rose/Ten II.
10 (11.0%)

Eleven/New Companion As Young River Song - Um... yes.
3 (3.3%)

Eleven/Donna - She finds him slightly less repulsive now that he's not as skinny.

I tend to veer between complete apathy and terror towards S5. It’s weird.

Anyway, the new S5 companion is A BRITISH ACTRESS NO ONE’S EVER HEARD OF. I could have told you all that. Pfft.

The popular consensus seems to be that she has pretty hair. Er, how… lovely?

Some more thoughts. )
