Extracts from LMNOPeration, the REAL origin of the Crossoververse
From Lapdog:
Tessa:
Alice Guppy
Moment:
wow, random theme shift
Sure. Although, being a Ginger and knowing that in the Whoniverse all Gingers come from space, I do worry a bit. . .
Emily Holroyd
Min:
Sure. *sticks tongue out at you* As a person with normal coloured hair, I will be allowed to zap you with things.
You people and your going for old!Torchwood. . .well, fine, I'm going for Classic Who. Nyah!
Harry Sullivan
Moment:
Ah, Classic Who. Like NuWho, but with fail!costumes and the inability to act. *le sigh*
I love Harry. Harry and Sarah Jane are my Fourth Doctor OTP, btw.
Leela
Min:
Firstly, Harry/Sarah Jane? YES! Almost as canon as Barbara and Ian.
Secondly, Leela? Does not understand appropriate clothing. Therefore, yes.
Jo
Moment:
But still not quite as canon as Nyssa and Tegan. *grin*
Sure
Romana (either)
Tate:
Clary, for that comment and the one about Classic Who, I love you. Just so you know.
Yes to Romana. (been watching the Key to Time serial/series. Romana rocks.)
K-9
Moment:
What are you still doing up? It's nearly 4am there! Go to sleep!
Mr. Smith
Tate:
You can't tell me what to do.
Sure. Bit of an SJA theme going now?
Luke
Moment:
Can. Did. Will again.
Go. To. Sleep.
Sure.
Rani
Tate:
I was awake for another two hours anyway. Bloody insomnia. . .
Sure, Rani's pretty
Haresh
Moment:
That's what you get for keeping such fucked-up hours.
Gosh, Haresh is pretty, isn't he? I always feel bad, because I think he's prettier than Gita. . .
. . .speaking of whom. . .
Tate:
Don't feel bad about that, he is prettier than Gita. No offense to Gita, cos, y'know, I wouldn't exactly say no. . .what we should be feeling bad about is fancying both Rani and her father. Cos that? Prolly kinda not right. . .
Clyde
Moment:
Yeah, prolly. I think I need to have a long talk with a therapist about the age ranges it's acceptable to fancy at eighteen. Cos I think, and I'm just guessing here, mind, that it's wrong of me to feel like a pedo for fancying people who would be in my age group on Neopets.
Sure.
Maria
Tate:
First, as page starters go, that should win an award. Second, um, yeah, but I get that same feeling. Which bugs me, cos I only feel like a perv when I fancy "younger" people on television. Let's all keep in mind that my actual girlfriend is only fifteen and I don't feel like a pedo fancying her. It's just on television. I blame it on the fact that most of the shows we watch tend to be populated with thirty-odds at the youngest. If you really want to talk to a shrink about it, though, I can call Lilann.
Yes, Maria. Although SJA has ruined me for pronunciation, because I bloody know there is no 'r' on the end of Maria. . .
Alan
Moment:
*holds up "Page Starters Context" award proudly* Eesh, I know. We watch too many "not children's" programmes. I often feel creepy fancying students on Degrassi. Whom I know I am meant to fancy. I am that show's target audience, for heavens sake! (Can I maybe borrow Lilann for a few days?)
Sure.
We've run out of SJA regulars. (However, before I forget and try to find a more appropriate place for this comment, were you by any chance sensing slash vibes between K-9 and Mr. Smith, or am I the only one?)
Peri
Tate:
I know. In your defense, there are some pretty cute girls on Degrassi. (You may. *pushes Lilann your way* I'm certainly not in need of muses at the moment. They're sort of. . .I think they're actually scaring off my ideas.)
Peri is awesome. Yes.
Alex from Modern Family
Moment:
(*catches Lilann* Thanks. That's not a very helpful thing for muses to do.)
Ye Gods woman! Immediately after a conversation about acceptable age ranges you send me that? Alex can't be more than eleven, you bastard!
Gloria from Modern Family
Tate:
*smug* You aren't the only one who can be a smart-arse, Clary-kun. Tell me honestly that you weren't thinking about doing the exact same thing.
(No, it's not. Although Indigo has retired from being a muse completely and has taken a job as the little devil that sits on my shoulder and makes lewd comments.)
Sure, Gloria's pretty.
Adelaide Brooke
Moment:
I was thinking about it...*grumble* I understand why you find this internets telepathy thing so annoying.
(Nice. Who's the little angel sitting on the other shoulder?)
Have we come around to The Waters of Mars already? Curses.
Yes to Adelaide. Because, damn.
Pretty girl whose age mattered and whose name I do not remember
Tate:
(I don't have one yet. I prolly would if any of the ones who hung around for more than ten minutes a day were actually decent people. I'm thinking about hiring Nata, because even though I'm not sure I trust her morals to be a hundred percent unskewered, I think she'll just disagree with everything Indy-chan says on principle alone.)
We have. And how disturbing is the Doctor's decent into actual madness?
I know. I know.
Would. Pretty girl is pretty.
Boy who survived, whose name I don't know
Moment:
(That sounds good enough for me. You should do that, because do you really want Indigo to go unchecked for long?)
VERY disturbing. Nothing so much as this: "There are laws of time, and once upon a time, there were people in charge of those laws, but they died. They all died. Do you know who that leaves? Me! It's taken me all these years to realise the laws of time are mine, and they will obey me!"
Sure. I'm leaving tWom because I don't know any other characters names.
young!Prof Lazarus
Tate:
(I do not.)
I know. I know.
Um, no. Because he's creepy. (Wanna know what else is creepy? They're using the Doctor's speech from tLE as thier End of Time ad monolog. I recognized it about five words in, by the scenery behind the Doctor's head.)
Prof Lazarus' Ice Queen
Moment:
Um, no.
That is kinda creepy. Didn't you only ever watch tLE once?
Tish
Tate:
Yup, just the once. Which was why it so creeped me out.
Sure.
Leo
Moment:
Sure, Leo.
Francine
Tate:
Um, no. Francine scares me a little bit.
Sylvia
Moment:
No. I want to punch Sylvia about 98% of the time.
Wilf
Tessa:
Wilf! I love Wilf! Yes.
Martha's Dad's ex-girlfriend whose name I can't remember
Moment:
Annalise. Pretty. Sure.
Martha's husband Tom
Tate:
No, and here's why: I have a thing about Tom. He and Martha had some cute chemistry during TYTNW. They had chemistry, in what was quite clearly a post-apocalyptic world. That Martha would continue to feel that after time reset I can buy. That she could manage to begin a relationship with him and progressed to to a happy marriage, I can't. Because nothing about that relationship could ever be normal. She has memories of him, of their first meeting, that are different than his and that she can't tell him about. And that makes for a damn fucked-up dynamic that I cannot buy until I see it progressing on the screen in front of me. Sorry.
Moving away from Doctor Who. . .
Bridget of Brunch With Bridget
Moment:
Dammit, you've given me a thing about Tom, too.
Aw, Bridget. I love Bridget. Yes.
Dara of Dara & Karman's Hit List
Tate:
I've given you a thing? I didn't realize it was contagious. Darned STDs.
Yes. (Am I alone in thinking she could be Tosh's cousin?)
Karman
Moment:
Yeah, you should really get that checked out.
You are not alone. She totally looks like she could be related to Tosh.
Karman is cute. Sure
Daniel of Mores For Gays
Tessa:
Sure.
INTERNET. GUESS WHO HAS IT BACK.
Mike Rowe.
Moment:
Dunno who that is.
Congrats!
The Weeping Lady
Min:
Yes. I liked the Weeping Lady.
Rassilon (as of tEoT, not tFD)
Moment:
Um, no. I loved Rassilon in tFD, tho.
Minnie the menace
Tate:
So did I. That version of Rassilon was awesome. I really want to believe that tEoT's Rassilon just shared the same name, but knowing Rusty. . .
Minnie was fabulous. So yes.
Abigail Naismith
Moment:
Mm. I'm not sure there ever were any Time Lords who shared a name. In all of Gallifrean history. I mean, if you're going to be pretentious enough to call yourselves Time Lords, you don't want people mixing you up.
(Okay, it's nearly six here. I'm awake because I have a class at eight. What's your excuse?)
No. She gave me the Creepies.
Joshua Naismith
Tate:
That's a spectacular point. Thank you.
(I keep weird hours.)
He gave me the Creepies.
the Time Lady Rassilon evaporated
Moment:
Sure. She struck me as being. . .decent. And I can count the number of Time Lords I've thought were actually decent people on one hand, counting Classic and New Who.
Cactus!alien girl
Tate:
That's a horrible statement. Let me guess: the Doctor, Romana, old!Rassilon, the Weeping Lady, evaporated!Lady. All the rest that I can recall were annoying politicians or murderous psychopaths.
She was CUTE. So yeah.
And their species had a name. Which I cannot recall and can't be bothered to look up.
the boy
Moment:
Got them all, yeah. I mean, I'm sure there ARE other decent Time Lords, I just don't recall ever seeing any. . .
It's Vinvocci. I just prefer to call them Cacti. And sure.
Shaun Temple
Tate:
Eh. . .I'm less than thrilled at Donna's taste in men to be honest. He's not bad, I just can't bring myself to care one way or the other about him. Sorry.
Verity Newman
Moment:
YES. Have I mentioned yet that I love that scene?
not-insane!Lucy Saxon
Tate:
You have.
Yes. So very yes. I fell in love with Lucy, a little, for that ending.
Galvin from Demons (TELL me you've been watching.)
Moment:
Oh, so did I.
(I have. It's decent. And the people in it, I recognize. How sad is that?) Sure.
Blind Mina
Tate:
I like Mina. Absolutely.
Ruby
(Going to sleep now. Have fun in class. G'night.)
Moment:
Eh, sure. Why not. Ruby's alright.
Luke
Tate:
I dunno yet. I guess.
Sam Tyler (Why am I rewatching Life On Mars you ask? Because I can't get my hands on State Of Play.)
Min:
(Oh, State Of Play. All I can find online is the American version. Ugh.)
Oh yes. Pretty, pretty man.
Annie Cartwright
Tate:
Sure. (Back on the subject of decent Time Lords: Iris Wildthyme wasn't bad, I don't think.)
Maya
Moment:
Sure. (She's not exactly what you'd call "canon", though.)
Chris
Min:
Sure. (Most of the Time War proper isn't exactly cannon, either.)
Ray
Moment:
No.
(Reasons the Whoniverse NEEDS to cross with LoM:
1) John Simm,
2) Sam is a Tyler, and it's not even a coincidence. "[Williams] was originally to be Sam's surname, but Kudos felt that 'Sam Williams' was not striking enough. Co-creator Matthew Graham consulted his daughter and she suggested Tyler after Rose Tyler, from Doctor Who.",
3) THIS dialogue, from S1E5:
Annie: Mind you, he wears the same aftershave as you.
Sam:: [looking confused] I don't wear aftershave.
Because, really? Really? Regardless of the actual circumstances. . .that's brilliant.)
Alex Drake
Min:
Sure. But you're skipping shows there. Seven years plot difference, too, damn you.
(Can I add:
4) CHIBNALL,
to that list?)
Phyllis
Moment:
Heh, Phyllis. Phyllis is cool, sure.
(You can. And you may. And I shall add:
5) Time travel,
which really should have been further up the list than this. . .)
June
Tate:
June's sweet, sure.
(Time travel should have been the beginning of that list. . .I feel like I should keep adding to the list, but it's nearly half six here and I can hardly be bothered to form coherent sentences what with the not!sleeping and the LoM!smut-reading, so I won't.)
Neil
Moment:
Um, no. Neil nearly made Sam jump off a building. In the Not Awesome Shiny Pretty Series Two way.
(Considering a new game. "Plausible Crossovers And Why They Should Exist". Whatcha think?)
(Also, you poor thing. LoM fandom has very brain melting smut. I've always felt I should contribute, but with my To-Do List I've never quite made it that far.)
Litton
Tate:
That? About Neil? Made me giggle so much.
Litton's a jerk and deserves to be shot. Which is to say, no.
(Go for it.)
(Shame. The way your mind works and all, you'd be brilliant. Did you have any specific ideas in mind or was it just your usual "I really SHOULD do this, but. . ."?
DCI Morgan
Moment:
Um, no. I've not even watched that far yet, and I already know I absolutely loathe DCI Morgan.
(Thanks. I had vague ideas centered around episode four. . .you know what I'm talking about.)
Test Card Girl
Tate:
Test Card Girl freaks me right the fuck out, thanks. And despite that, I think she's brilliant. Creepy as fuck, but brilliant. So, yeah. (Can I postulate a theory here? In that crossover universe you were listing on about, is Test Card Girl the newest incarnation of the Rani?)
(I know exactly what you're talking about. And you should write. *feeds plotbunny*)
Shaz
Moment:
Shaz is cute. Sure. (I love you. She is now. Dammit, I might actually have to WRITE this universe. . .)
(Curse you. Don't feed the plotbunnies!)
Ruth Tyler
Tate:
Sure. But I've just gotta mention, CREEPY INCEST VIBES. ALL BLOODY EPISODE. Gah! (Sorry. Sorry. The last time someone cursed me, all the computers in my house shut down...)
Molly Drake
Moment:
Molly's a sweetie. Poor kid. Sure. (*does curse-taking-back dance*)
Caroline Price
Tate:
I don't remember Caroline Price. I mean, I know who she was. I have vague memories of alternately loving and hating her. I don't remember whether I liked her over all or not. Dammit. (Thank you.)
(Getting offline now. SLEEP.)
Evan White
Moment:
Heh. I remember having a bit of a thing for Evan while watching Series 1. (You're welcome.)
(Pleasant dreams.)
Sam Tyler's Mobile Phone (I spend long hours on the internet with nothing better to do. Subcatagorized slash minorities? I know them well.)
Tate:
You're creepy.
Joannie
Moment:
Joannie was pretty. And she turned out okay in the end. And she gave us the very pretty hand-cuffed nekkid John Simm. So, YES, ignoring that dead-in-the-canal thing.
young!Sam
Min:
Aw, young!Sam. . .would be pleased to nanny him.
I refuse to go look at Character Lists, so we're done with the LoM/A2A theme. . .when did the themes thing start, anyway?
Lux from Life Unexpected
Moment:
Sure. But there's that "I feel like a paedophile nao" thing again, dammit.
It started a while back because the universe lends itself to patterns. Science! Maths!
Kate from Life Unexpected
(You're supposed to be in an actual class right now. What are you doing?)
Min:
Sure.
(Skipping, obviously.)
Baze from Life Unexpected
Moment:
Sure.
(Go back to class. NOW.)
Kate's fiance. . .blanking on a name.
Min:
I liked him all the way through the episode, and then in that last scene, he creeped me right out. Geez. Maybe.
(It's not like you never skipped. . .)
Mick St.John
Moment:
Ah, Moonlight, I loved thee so. Yes to Mick.
(And we all know how that affected my ability to do the college scheduling thing. . .Go to class.)
Beth
Min:
Beth pretty. Sure.
(Oh, you're doing fine. Besides, I have better skills than you, anyway.)
Coraline
Moment:
I've a thing for Coraline, yeah.
(Do not make me call your school, Min. Also? That last bit? You wanna rethink your phrasing?)
Logan
Min:
Sure. Logan makes me smile.
(I'm going, I'm going. Geez. Also? That last bit? I don't think I do.)
The boyfriend. . .I want to say Paul but I'm not sure. . .
Moment:
Um, you might be right. I can't be bothered to look it up. He's all right, I guess.
(Good. Heh. *smirk* Whatever you say.)
From I Can See You
Moment:
I'm thinking of commandeering Isis's completely unused livejournal and using it for my fic. Whatcha think?
Tate:
You should do that. And do essays, as well. That "Jack and His Issues" essay I mentioned? I want that for my birthday, understand?
Also? Was talking to my dad about The End of Time. And I mentioned the Master's silly new facial hair. And dad says, "Well maybe he's gone gay." I deserve a fucking MEDAL for the things I didn't say.
Moment:
Oh, fine. But it will most likely be extremely late.
*hands you Self-Restraint Medal* You do. Completely deserve this.
Moment:
I'm just using this as a place to. . .well, not complain so much as "whinge on and on about things I don't really have problem with". Such as. . .
I do the fangirl/stare/drool/ogle thing, right? Such things usually last about a week, maybe two, and then I've switched subjects. However, it's always been just the stare/drool/fangirl thing.
I am going to electrocute myself because I want to lick John Simm. And have next to no Self-Restraint. What's wrong with me?
Min:
<Before you yell at me, I'm actually IN class this time. I swear to God.>
I feel so bad for your computer. Not quite so bad for you; if you get electrocuted it's your own damn fault. (On the other hand, I completely understand the urge to lick John Simm.)
Tate:
<It's okay, Min. She got offline a couple minutes ago. Had a class of her own to get to.>
. . .pretty sure you shouldn't get electrocuted by licking a computer screen. . .I mean, unless you've hotwired your computer very poorly or some such. (Gods, yes.)
Min:
It occurs to me that we've neglected to tell my dearest sister what's wrong with her. She did ask, after all.
Tate:
Dear lord, we'll be here for hours. I don't have that kind of time. . .
<You realize that if Isis reads this, you're dead, ne? "My dearest sister"? Smart phrasing, that was.>
Min:
Nor I. Guess we'll skip that bit, then.
<Shit.>
Tate:
Probably for the best, that.
Getting offline now, but if you want to discuss Moment's flaws later, I will be online again.
Min:
She's gonna kill us.
Moment:
I'm going to kill you. Both of you. Twice.
Tate:
Okay, but first I'm going to tell you about my Scrabble game. Cos I was playing Scrabble with mum, right? And I pull out my first seven letters, in this order: IATEFAG
I think I deserve another of those Self-Restraint Medals.
Moment:
. . .that? That is FABULOUS. And you really do. Um. . .*finishes gluing macaroni onto hand-made medal and hands it over* Here you go.
Tate:
You had to glue macaroni to it? Really? Now my hands are all sticky!
Moment:
. . .*opens mouth, closes mouth, takes Self-Restraint Medal and hangs it on wall*
Tate:
Why do I get the feeling you planned that?
Moment:
Because you know me so well. *grin?*
Min:
*sing-song* Someone screwed up their punctuation.
Moment:
Shut up.
From Doctor Who Word Association
Moment:
policewomen
(srsly, the new companion, she is a pretty young ginger in a police uniform. despite the lack of ten and donna, and despite Rusty's "well, you can have the sandbox but I'm taking all the toys with me" attitude, this i am actually looking forward to.)
Tessa:
Gwen
(I'm looking forward as well. All I can think is that it's not possible for me to be more disappointed by this than I was by CoE. Anything is a step up. And what little we saw of Eleven--he looks fun. Ten didn't seem as emo at the end of SE1 as he was for the rest of the fucking serious, though, so...)
Moment:
Rhys
(Let's all keep in mind that most of the episodes Rusty wrote had a theme of "what more can I possibly take away from the Doctor?" and most of the episodes Mr. Moffat wrote had a theme of "sometimes, everybody lives". I think that's a good sign.)
Tessa:
Awesome.
(Yes, yes he did. This is why I still have hope.)
Moment:
Erisa Magumbo
(On the other hand, Mr. Moffat has admitted that he believes time travel is a get out of jail free card. . .)
Tessa:
Confusion
(Do you honestly believe that Rusty doesn't think that, too?)
Moment:
that would be the premise of this show
(Well, no, but he also didn't tell us so to our faces.)
Tessa:
Indeed.
(Yes, but at least Mr Moffat has the decency to be honest about it.)
Moment:
Teal'c has nothing to do with Doctor Who, dammit.
(Mm, and his stories do tend to have more internal continuity than Rusty's.)
Tate:
You're right. That's because a crossover of that sort has been taken out of the realm of even Science Fantasy by Rusty's poor treatment of parallel worlds.
(Moment, even your crackiest crackfic has more internal continuity than most of Rusty's episodes.)
Min:
"Rusty's poor treatment of". . .you could have ended that sentence with ANYTHING and it would have been true.
Moment:
Even "Marmalade"?
(That, my dear Tatey-chan, is because I am WAY more awesome than Rusty.)
Min:
Y'know what? We are so not going there.
Tate:
. . .I was going to ask how it's possible to mistreat marmalade, but then I thought about it and decided that Min is right. Going there is a Bad Idea.
Moment:
*grin*
As it turns out, Marmalade has been quite well treated by the Whoniverse. The only time it was featured, that I can recall, was in Fear Her. And Ten licked it. That does not constitute mistreatment in my book.
(Also, Fear Her was written by the "Matt" half of LoM's Matt'n'Ash. Just one more reason LoM and the Whoniverse NEED to cross.)
Min:
Nor mine. But, really, bringing up marmalade was really just an excuse for you to draw attention to Ten's oral fixation, wasn't it?
(Hey, I was already convinced. The compatibility of the shows you choose to cross doesn't need to proved anywhere near as emphatically as they are.)
Moment:
Well, I figured it needed to be brought up. You know, what with John Simm's inherent lickability and all.
(It's hardly my fault the connections EXIST.)
(Where did Tatey-chan go?)
Min:
First, I'm pretty sure "lickability" isn't actually a word.
Second, you are just TRYING to kill me with internets telepathy visuals, aren't you?
(I have no idea. Maybe she has schoolwork.)
Moment:
First, you knew what I meant, so shut up.
Second, the fact that you got porn visuals has nothing to do with internets telepathy and everything to do with mum bribing you to do your chores.
Min:
Mum's been bribing me with porn since I discovered it existed. (Your fault, by the way, miss I-don't-think-I'll-wipe-the-history-today.) YOU'RE the one who put Ten's oral fixation and the fact that we want to lick John Simm in the same sentence.
Moment:
Like you really mind the visual. *scoffs*
(Also? That is a SPECTACULAR page starter.)
Tate:
I leave for twenty minutes and come back to discover that the game has been replaced with a discussion of porn. And the worst part of this story? I can't even pretend to be surprised.
Moment:
THAT would be the work of internets telepathy. *smug*
Min:
re: that post a few posts ago
I never said I MINDED. I said you were trying to kill me. Those are such COMPLETELY different concepts.
Moment:
Heh.
Okay, we really should get back to the game now.
From Lapdog:
Tessa:
Alice Guppy
Moment:
wow, random theme shift
Sure. Although, being a Ginger and knowing that in the Whoniverse all Gingers come from space, I do worry a bit. . .
Emily Holroyd
Min:
Sure. *sticks tongue out at you* As a person with normal coloured hair, I will be allowed to zap you with things.
You people and your going for old!Torchwood. . .well, fine, I'm going for Classic Who. Nyah!
Harry Sullivan
Moment:
Ah, Classic Who. Like NuWho, but with fail!costumes and the inability to act. *le sigh*
I love Harry. Harry and Sarah Jane are my Fourth Doctor OTP, btw.
Leela
Min:
Firstly, Harry/Sarah Jane? YES! Almost as canon as Barbara and Ian.
Secondly, Leela? Does not understand appropriate clothing. Therefore, yes.
Jo
Moment:
But still not quite as canon as Nyssa and Tegan. *grin*
Sure
Romana (either)
Tate:
Clary, for that comment and the one about Classic Who, I love you. Just so you know.
Yes to Romana. (been watching the Key to Time serial/series. Romana rocks.)
K-9
Moment:
What are you still doing up? It's nearly 4am there! Go to sleep!
Mr. Smith
Tate:
You can't tell me what to do.
Sure. Bit of an SJA theme going now?
Luke
Moment:
Can. Did. Will again.
Go. To. Sleep.
Sure.
Rani
Tate:
I was awake for another two hours anyway. Bloody insomnia. . .
Sure, Rani's pretty
Haresh
Moment:
That's what you get for keeping such fucked-up hours.
Gosh, Haresh is pretty, isn't he? I always feel bad, because I think he's prettier than Gita. . .
. . .speaking of whom. . .
Tate:
Don't feel bad about that, he is prettier than Gita. No offense to Gita, cos, y'know, I wouldn't exactly say no. . .what we should be feeling bad about is fancying both Rani and her father. Cos that? Prolly kinda not right. . .
Clyde
Moment:
Yeah, prolly. I think I need to have a long talk with a therapist about the age ranges it's acceptable to fancy at eighteen. Cos I think, and I'm just guessing here, mind, that it's wrong of me to feel like a pedo for fancying people who would be in my age group on Neopets.
Sure.
Maria
Tate:
First, as page starters go, that should win an award. Second, um, yeah, but I get that same feeling. Which bugs me, cos I only feel like a perv when I fancy "younger" people on television. Let's all keep in mind that my actual girlfriend is only fifteen and I don't feel like a pedo fancying her. It's just on television. I blame it on the fact that most of the shows we watch tend to be populated with thirty-odds at the youngest. If you really want to talk to a shrink about it, though, I can call Lilann.
Yes, Maria. Although SJA has ruined me for pronunciation, because I bloody know there is no 'r' on the end of Maria. . .
Alan
Moment:
*holds up "Page Starters Context" award proudly* Eesh, I know. We watch too many "not children's" programmes. I often feel creepy fancying students on Degrassi. Whom I know I am meant to fancy. I am that show's target audience, for heavens sake! (Can I maybe borrow Lilann for a few days?)
Sure.
We've run out of SJA regulars. (However, before I forget and try to find a more appropriate place for this comment, were you by any chance sensing slash vibes between K-9 and Mr. Smith, or am I the only one?)
Peri
Tate:
I know. In your defense, there are some pretty cute girls on Degrassi. (You may. *pushes Lilann your way* I'm certainly not in need of muses at the moment. They're sort of. . .I think they're actually scaring off my ideas.)
Peri is awesome. Yes.
Alex from Modern Family
Moment:
(*catches Lilann* Thanks. That's not a very helpful thing for muses to do.)
Ye Gods woman! Immediately after a conversation about acceptable age ranges you send me that? Alex can't be more than eleven, you bastard!
Gloria from Modern Family
Tate:
*smug* You aren't the only one who can be a smart-arse, Clary-kun. Tell me honestly that you weren't thinking about doing the exact same thing.
(No, it's not. Although Indigo has retired from being a muse completely and has taken a job as the little devil that sits on my shoulder and makes lewd comments.)
Sure, Gloria's pretty.
Adelaide Brooke
Moment:
I was thinking about it...*grumble* I understand why you find this internets telepathy thing so annoying.
(Nice. Who's the little angel sitting on the other shoulder?)
Have we come around to The Waters of Mars already? Curses.
Yes to Adelaide. Because, damn.
Pretty girl whose age mattered and whose name I do not remember
Tate:
(I don't have one yet. I prolly would if any of the ones who hung around for more than ten minutes a day were actually decent people. I'm thinking about hiring Nata, because even though I'm not sure I trust her morals to be a hundred percent unskewered, I think she'll just disagree with everything Indy-chan says on principle alone.)
We have. And how disturbing is the Doctor's decent into actual madness?
I know. I know.
Would. Pretty girl is pretty.
Boy who survived, whose name I don't know
Moment:
(That sounds good enough for me. You should do that, because do you really want Indigo to go unchecked for long?)
VERY disturbing. Nothing so much as this: "There are laws of time, and once upon a time, there were people in charge of those laws, but they died. They all died. Do you know who that leaves? Me! It's taken me all these years to realise the laws of time are mine, and they will obey me!"
Sure. I'm leaving tWom because I don't know any other characters names.
young!Prof Lazarus
Tate:
(I do not.)
I know. I know.
Um, no. Because he's creepy. (Wanna know what else is creepy? They're using the Doctor's speech from tLE as thier End of Time ad monolog. I recognized it about five words in, by the scenery behind the Doctor's head.)
Prof Lazarus' Ice Queen
Moment:
Um, no.
That is kinda creepy. Didn't you only ever watch tLE once?
Tish
Tate:
Yup, just the once. Which was why it so creeped me out.
Sure.
Leo
Moment:
Sure, Leo.
Francine
Tate:
Um, no. Francine scares me a little bit.
Sylvia
Moment:
No. I want to punch Sylvia about 98% of the time.
Wilf
Tessa:
Wilf! I love Wilf! Yes.
Martha's Dad's ex-girlfriend whose name I can't remember
Moment:
Annalise. Pretty. Sure.
Martha's husband Tom
Tate:
No, and here's why: I have a thing about Tom. He and Martha had some cute chemistry during TYTNW. They had chemistry, in what was quite clearly a post-apocalyptic world. That Martha would continue to feel that after time reset I can buy. That she could manage to begin a relationship with him and progressed to to a happy marriage, I can't. Because nothing about that relationship could ever be normal. She has memories of him, of their first meeting, that are different than his and that she can't tell him about. And that makes for a damn fucked-up dynamic that I cannot buy until I see it progressing on the screen in front of me. Sorry.
Moving away from Doctor Who. . .
Bridget of Brunch With Bridget
Moment:
Dammit, you've given me a thing about Tom, too.
Aw, Bridget. I love Bridget. Yes.
Dara of Dara & Karman's Hit List
Tate:
I've given you a thing? I didn't realize it was contagious. Darned STDs.
Yes. (Am I alone in thinking she could be Tosh's cousin?)
Karman
Moment:
Yeah, you should really get that checked out.
You are not alone. She totally looks like she could be related to Tosh.
Karman is cute. Sure
Daniel of Mores For Gays
Tessa:
Sure.
INTERNET. GUESS WHO HAS IT BACK.
Mike Rowe.
Moment:
Dunno who that is.
Congrats!
The Weeping Lady
Min:
Yes. I liked the Weeping Lady.
Rassilon (as of tEoT, not tFD)
Moment:
Um, no. I loved Rassilon in tFD, tho.
Minnie the menace
Tate:
So did I. That version of Rassilon was awesome. I really want to believe that tEoT's Rassilon just shared the same name, but knowing Rusty. . .
Minnie was fabulous. So yes.
Abigail Naismith
Moment:
Mm. I'm not sure there ever were any Time Lords who shared a name. In all of Gallifrean history. I mean, if you're going to be pretentious enough to call yourselves Time Lords, you don't want people mixing you up.
(Okay, it's nearly six here. I'm awake because I have a class at eight. What's your excuse?)
No. She gave me the Creepies.
Joshua Naismith
Tate:
That's a spectacular point. Thank you.
(I keep weird hours.)
He gave me the Creepies.
the Time Lady Rassilon evaporated
Moment:
Sure. She struck me as being. . .decent. And I can count the number of Time Lords I've thought were actually decent people on one hand, counting Classic and New Who.
Cactus!alien girl
Tate:
That's a horrible statement. Let me guess: the Doctor, Romana, old!Rassilon, the Weeping Lady, evaporated!Lady. All the rest that I can recall were annoying politicians or murderous psychopaths.
She was CUTE. So yeah.
And their species had a name. Which I cannot recall and can't be bothered to look up.
the boy
Moment:
Got them all, yeah. I mean, I'm sure there ARE other decent Time Lords, I just don't recall ever seeing any. . .
It's Vinvocci. I just prefer to call them Cacti. And sure.
Shaun Temple
Tate:
Eh. . .I'm less than thrilled at Donna's taste in men to be honest. He's not bad, I just can't bring myself to care one way or the other about him. Sorry.
Verity Newman
Moment:
YES. Have I mentioned yet that I love that scene?
not-insane!Lucy Saxon
Tate:
You have.
Yes. So very yes. I fell in love with Lucy, a little, for that ending.
Galvin from Demons (TELL me you've been watching.)
Moment:
Oh, so did I.
(I have. It's decent. And the people in it, I recognize. How sad is that?) Sure.
Blind Mina
Tate:
I like Mina. Absolutely.
Ruby
(Going to sleep now. Have fun in class. G'night.)
Moment:
Eh, sure. Why not. Ruby's alright.
Luke
Tate:
I dunno yet. I guess.
Sam Tyler (Why am I rewatching Life On Mars you ask? Because I can't get my hands on State Of Play.)
Min:
(Oh, State Of Play. All I can find online is the American version. Ugh.)
Oh yes. Pretty, pretty man.
Annie Cartwright
Tate:
Sure. (Back on the subject of decent Time Lords: Iris Wildthyme wasn't bad, I don't think.)
Maya
Moment:
Sure. (She's not exactly what you'd call "canon", though.)
Chris
Min:
Sure. (Most of the Time War proper isn't exactly cannon, either.)
Ray
Moment:
No.
(Reasons the Whoniverse NEEDS to cross with LoM:
1) John Simm,
2) Sam is a Tyler, and it's not even a coincidence. "[Williams] was originally to be Sam's surname, but Kudos felt that 'Sam Williams' was not striking enough. Co-creator Matthew Graham consulted his daughter and she suggested Tyler after Rose Tyler, from Doctor Who.",
3) THIS dialogue, from S1E5:
Annie: Mind you, he wears the same aftershave as you.
Sam:: [looking confused] I don't wear aftershave.
Because, really? Really? Regardless of the actual circumstances. . .that's brilliant.)
Alex Drake
Min:
Sure. But you're skipping shows there. Seven years plot difference, too, damn you.
(Can I add:
4) CHIBNALL,
to that list?)
Phyllis
Moment:
Heh, Phyllis. Phyllis is cool, sure.
(You can. And you may. And I shall add:
5) Time travel,
which really should have been further up the list than this. . .)
June
Tate:
June's sweet, sure.
(Time travel should have been the beginning of that list. . .I feel like I should keep adding to the list, but it's nearly half six here and I can hardly be bothered to form coherent sentences what with the not!sleeping and the LoM!smut-reading, so I won't.)
Neil
Moment:
Um, no. Neil nearly made Sam jump off a building. In the Not Awesome Shiny Pretty Series Two way.
(Considering a new game. "Plausible Crossovers And Why They Should Exist". Whatcha think?)
(Also, you poor thing. LoM fandom has very brain melting smut. I've always felt I should contribute, but with my To-Do List I've never quite made it that far.)
Litton
Tate:
That? About Neil? Made me giggle so much.
Litton's a jerk and deserves to be shot. Which is to say, no.
(Go for it.)
(Shame. The way your mind works and all, you'd be brilliant. Did you have any specific ideas in mind or was it just your usual "I really SHOULD do this, but. . ."?
DCI Morgan
Moment:
Um, no. I've not even watched that far yet, and I already know I absolutely loathe DCI Morgan.
(Thanks. I had vague ideas centered around episode four. . .you know what I'm talking about.)
Test Card Girl
Tate:
Test Card Girl freaks me right the fuck out, thanks. And despite that, I think she's brilliant. Creepy as fuck, but brilliant. So, yeah. (Can I postulate a theory here? In that crossover universe you were listing on about, is Test Card Girl the newest incarnation of the Rani?)
(I know exactly what you're talking about. And you should write. *feeds plotbunny*)
Shaz
Moment:
Shaz is cute. Sure. (I love you. She is now. Dammit, I might actually have to WRITE this universe. . .)
(Curse you. Don't feed the plotbunnies!)
Ruth Tyler
Tate:
Sure. But I've just gotta mention, CREEPY INCEST VIBES. ALL BLOODY EPISODE. Gah! (Sorry. Sorry. The last time someone cursed me, all the computers in my house shut down...)
Molly Drake
Moment:
Molly's a sweetie. Poor kid. Sure. (*does curse-taking-back dance*)
Caroline Price
Tate:
I don't remember Caroline Price. I mean, I know who she was. I have vague memories of alternately loving and hating her. I don't remember whether I liked her over all or not. Dammit. (Thank you.)
(Getting offline now. SLEEP.)
Evan White
Moment:
Heh. I remember having a bit of a thing for Evan while watching Series 1. (You're welcome.)
(Pleasant dreams.)
Sam Tyler's Mobile Phone (I spend long hours on the internet with nothing better to do. Subcatagorized slash minorities? I know them well.)
Tate:
You're creepy.
Joannie
Moment:
Joannie was pretty. And she turned out okay in the end. And she gave us the very pretty hand-cuffed nekkid John Simm. So, YES, ignoring that dead-in-the-canal thing.
young!Sam
Min:
Aw, young!Sam. . .would be pleased to nanny him.
I refuse to go look at Character Lists, so we're done with the LoM/A2A theme. . .when did the themes thing start, anyway?
Lux from Life Unexpected
Moment:
Sure. But there's that "I feel like a paedophile nao" thing again, dammit.
It started a while back because the universe lends itself to patterns. Science! Maths!
Kate from Life Unexpected
(You're supposed to be in an actual class right now. What are you doing?)
Min:
Sure.
(Skipping, obviously.)
Baze from Life Unexpected
Moment:
Sure.
(Go back to class. NOW.)
Kate's fiance. . .blanking on a name.
Min:
I liked him all the way through the episode, and then in that last scene, he creeped me right out. Geez. Maybe.
(It's not like you never skipped. . .)
Mick St.John
Moment:
Ah, Moonlight, I loved thee so. Yes to Mick.
(And we all know how that affected my ability to do the college scheduling thing. . .Go to class.)
Beth
Min:
Beth pretty. Sure.
(Oh, you're doing fine. Besides, I have better skills than you, anyway.)
Coraline
Moment:
I've a thing for Coraline, yeah.
(Do not make me call your school, Min. Also? That last bit? You wanna rethink your phrasing?)
Logan
Min:
Sure. Logan makes me smile.
(I'm going, I'm going. Geez. Also? That last bit? I don't think I do.)
The boyfriend. . .I want to say Paul but I'm not sure. . .
Moment:
Um, you might be right. I can't be bothered to look it up. He's all right, I guess.
(Good. Heh. *smirk* Whatever you say.)
From I Can See You
Moment:
I'm thinking of commandeering Isis's completely unused livejournal and using it for my fic. Whatcha think?
Tate:
You should do that. And do essays, as well. That "Jack and His Issues" essay I mentioned? I want that for my birthday, understand?
Also? Was talking to my dad about The End of Time. And I mentioned the Master's silly new facial hair. And dad says, "Well maybe he's gone gay." I deserve a fucking MEDAL for the things I didn't say.
Moment:
Oh, fine. But it will most likely be extremely late.
*hands you Self-Restraint Medal* You do. Completely deserve this.
Moment:
I'm just using this as a place to. . .well, not complain so much as "whinge on and on about things I don't really have problem with". Such as. . .
I do the fangirl/stare/drool/ogle thing, right? Such things usually last about a week, maybe two, and then I've switched subjects. However, it's always been just the stare/drool/fangirl thing.
I am going to electrocute myself because I want to lick John Simm. And have next to no Self-Restraint. What's wrong with me?
Min:
<Before you yell at me, I'm actually IN class this time. I swear to God.>
I feel so bad for your computer. Not quite so bad for you; if you get electrocuted it's your own damn fault. (On the other hand, I completely understand the urge to lick John Simm.)
Tate:
<It's okay, Min. She got offline a couple minutes ago. Had a class of her own to get to.>
. . .pretty sure you shouldn't get electrocuted by licking a computer screen. . .I mean, unless you've hotwired your computer very poorly or some such. (Gods, yes.)
Min:
It occurs to me that we've neglected to tell my dearest sister what's wrong with her. She did ask, after all.
Tate:
Dear lord, we'll be here for hours. I don't have that kind of time. . .
<You realize that if Isis reads this, you're dead, ne? "My dearest sister"? Smart phrasing, that was.>
Min:
Nor I. Guess we'll skip that bit, then.
<Shit.>
Tate:
Probably for the best, that.
Getting offline now, but if you want to discuss Moment's flaws later, I will be online again.
Min:
She's gonna kill us.
Moment:
I'm going to kill you. Both of you. Twice.
Tate:
Okay, but first I'm going to tell you about my Scrabble game. Cos I was playing Scrabble with mum, right? And I pull out my first seven letters, in this order: IATEFAG
I think I deserve another of those Self-Restraint Medals.
Moment:
. . .that? That is FABULOUS. And you really do. Um. . .*finishes gluing macaroni onto hand-made medal and hands it over* Here you go.
Tate:
You had to glue macaroni to it? Really? Now my hands are all sticky!
Moment:
. . .*opens mouth, closes mouth, takes Self-Restraint Medal and hangs it on wall*
Tate:
Why do I get the feeling you planned that?
Moment:
Because you know me so well. *grin?*
Min:
*sing-song* Someone screwed up their punctuation.
Moment:
Shut up.
From Doctor Who Word Association
Moment:
policewomen
(srsly, the new companion, she is a pretty young ginger in a police uniform. despite the lack of ten and donna, and despite Rusty's "well, you can have the sandbox but I'm taking all the toys with me" attitude, this i am actually looking forward to.)
Tessa:
Gwen
(I'm looking forward as well. All I can think is that it's not possible for me to be more disappointed by this than I was by CoE. Anything is a step up. And what little we saw of Eleven--he looks fun. Ten didn't seem as emo at the end of SE1 as he was for the rest of the fucking serious, though, so...)
Moment:
Rhys
(Let's all keep in mind that most of the episodes Rusty wrote had a theme of "what more can I possibly take away from the Doctor?" and most of the episodes Mr. Moffat wrote had a theme of "sometimes, everybody lives". I think that's a good sign.)
Tessa:
Awesome.
(Yes, yes he did. This is why I still have hope.)
Moment:
Erisa Magumbo
(On the other hand, Mr. Moffat has admitted that he believes time travel is a get out of jail free card. . .)
Tessa:
Confusion
(Do you honestly believe that Rusty doesn't think that, too?)
Moment:
that would be the premise of this show
(Well, no, but he also didn't tell us so to our faces.)
Tessa:
Indeed.
(Yes, but at least Mr Moffat has the decency to be honest about it.)
Moment:
Teal'c has nothing to do with Doctor Who, dammit.
(Mm, and his stories do tend to have more internal continuity than Rusty's.)
Tate:
You're right. That's because a crossover of that sort has been taken out of the realm of even Science Fantasy by Rusty's poor treatment of parallel worlds.
(Moment, even your crackiest crackfic has more internal continuity than most of Rusty's episodes.)
Min:
"Rusty's poor treatment of". . .you could have ended that sentence with ANYTHING and it would have been true.
Moment:
Even "Marmalade"?
(That, my dear Tatey-chan, is because I am WAY more awesome than Rusty.)
Min:
Y'know what? We are so not going there.
Tate:
. . .I was going to ask how it's possible to mistreat marmalade, but then I thought about it and decided that Min is right. Going there is a Bad Idea.
Moment:
*grin*
As it turns out, Marmalade has been quite well treated by the Whoniverse. The only time it was featured, that I can recall, was in Fear Her. And Ten licked it. That does not constitute mistreatment in my book.
(Also, Fear Her was written by the "Matt" half of LoM's Matt'n'Ash. Just one more reason LoM and the Whoniverse NEED to cross.)
Min:
Nor mine. But, really, bringing up marmalade was really just an excuse for you to draw attention to Ten's oral fixation, wasn't it?
(Hey, I was already convinced. The compatibility of the shows you choose to cross doesn't need to proved anywhere near as emphatically as they are.)
Moment:
Well, I figured it needed to be brought up. You know, what with John Simm's inherent lickability and all.
(It's hardly my fault the connections EXIST.)
(Where did Tatey-chan go?)
Min:
First, I'm pretty sure "lickability" isn't actually a word.
Second, you are just TRYING to kill me with internets telepathy visuals, aren't you?
(I have no idea. Maybe she has schoolwork.)
Moment:
First, you knew what I meant, so shut up.
Second, the fact that you got porn visuals has nothing to do with internets telepathy and everything to do with mum bribing you to do your chores.
Min:
Mum's been bribing me with porn since I discovered it existed. (Your fault, by the way, miss I-don't-think-I'll-wipe-the-history-today.) YOU'RE the one who put Ten's oral fixation and the fact that we want to lick John Simm in the same sentence.
Moment:
Like you really mind the visual. *scoffs*
(Also? That is a SPECTACULAR page starter.)
Tate:
I leave for twenty minutes and come back to discover that the game has been replaced with a discussion of porn. And the worst part of this story? I can't even pretend to be surprised.
Moment:
THAT would be the work of internets telepathy. *smug*
Min:
re: that post a few posts ago
I never said I MINDED. I said you were trying to kill me. Those are such COMPLETELY different concepts.
Moment:
Heh.
Okay, we really should get back to the game now.
