To be more accurate, this journal is half-locked. Fanfiction and fandom posts will still be unlocked, so if you're only here for my fics, feel free to friend me anonymously like so many of you have. However, if you're at all interested in getting to know me, drop me a line on this post, tell me why you want in (as in where you know me from) and I'll see what I can do. I'm not too picky, but I like to have some control over who reads what.

a little more on yours truly. )

Title: Revisions Which A Minute Will Reverse (3/4)
Authors: [info]wild_sibyl & [info]_thirty2flavors
Genre: AU, drama, angst
Spoilers: Through season 4, particularly Turn Left
Characters/Pairings: Ten2/Rose(/Ten), Donna Noble, Erisa Magambo
Summary: From a dingy hotel in Norway, the Doctor and Rose realise something has gone wrong. A timey-wimey interpretation of Turn Left.
Excerpt: “Specifically,” the Doctor says, his voice low and muted with self-loathing, “you’ve got to ask her to die for me.” He chuckles morbidly and looks at the ceiling. “Even in a universe where she’s never met me I’m ruining her life.”

Author's notes: We say "AU", but it could maybe be canon if you disregard a line or two in JE and squint a little. The title is a line from T S Eliot's "The Love Song of J Alfred Prufrock", because we're trendy like that, apparently. Much of what you recognize is borrowed from Turn Left, but this is not by any means a simple Turn Left recap. (banner by [info]wild_sibyl)

There's finally a Waters of Mars clip that looks somewhat interesting! I appreciate the way every single one-off companion must be "the Doctor's most ____ companion yet!!!", I enjoy watching them try to come up with new adjectives. Apparently this chick is ~strong-willed~ but previously I heard intelligent. I don't have much to say about it beyond OOO SHINY.

[info]goldy_dollar and I watched the first three episodes of Children of the Earth yesterday, and she has a joint reaction post here. Other things that have occured to me include: )

Lastly, [info]chips_remixed fics went up yesterday and [info]hippiebanana132 remixed my fic right here: Some Sort of Time Lord Code (The Preamble Remix). It is nifty so you should go read it.

Remix Title: I Know (The Maybe Later Remix)
Remix Author: [info]_thirty2flavors
Remixed fic: I Know
Remixed author: [info]melnay13
Characters/Pairings: Ten/Rose
Rating: G
Summary: The Doctor isn't the only one who waited until the last possible second. Set mid-season 2, sometime before The Impossible Planet.
Author's note: Betaed by the lovely [info]wild_sibyl. Written for [info]chips_remixed! This was a lot of fun, though the further I got with this fic, the less it began to resemble the original when it came to plot specifics. We were using the word "plot" loosely, right?

The Doctor was babbling. )

Title: Revisions Which A Minute Will Reverse (2/4)
Authors: [info]wild_sibyl & [info]_thirty2flavors
Genre: AU, drama, angst
Spoilers: Through season 4, particularly Turn Left
Characters/Pairings: Ten2/Rose(/Ten), Donna Noble, Brigadier Lethbridge-Stewart, Captain Jack Harkness
Summary: From a dingy hotel in Norway, the Doctor and Rose realise something has gone wrong. A timey-wimey interpretation of Turn Left.
Excerpt: “I got lost,” she says suddenly. “I fell, through the void and into a parallel world.” She leans forward in her seat to run a hand along the edge of the console, and then lets her flingers slip off the edge. “He couldn’t reach me, couldn’t come for me, and so I came to him. And then there was this war, this terrible war and everything got turned around.” Her lips twitch and she leans back against the seat, staring up into the impossibly vast ceiling. “I told him I’d stay with him forever.”

Author's notes: We say "AU", but it could maybe be canon if you disregard a line or two in JE and squint a little. The title is a line from T S Eliot's "The Love Song of J Alfred Prufrock", because we're trendy like that, apparently.

A few days ago a friend linked me to this list of amazing advice Batman gives to Robin, which got me thinking about how apparently the 1960s Batman was a lot more awesome than I remember it being when I watched it as a kid.

And then I went to youtube.



Omfg this show is the best thing I have ever seen. )

HAPPY CANADA DAY




The weather outside seems to be the appropriate Canada Day mix of sun and cloud that will no doubt rain just before the fireworks in order to make everyone wonder if they just wasted hours of their lives waiting for fireworks that will be washed out. Hurrah!

Title: Revisions Which A Minute Will Reverse (1/4)
Authors: [info]wild_sibyl & [info]_thirty2flavors
Genre: AU, angst, drama
Spoilers: Through season 4, particularly Turn Left
Characters/Pairings: Ten2/Rose(/Ten), Donna, Jackie, altTosh
Summary: From a dingy hotel in Norway, the Doctor and Rose realise something has gone wrong. A timey-wimey interpretation of Turn Left.
Excerpt: "All sorts of things happened because there was no one to stop them from happening, worlds in panic because the stars were going out and they didn’t know why.” She lowers her eyes and addresses the floor. “I couldn’t help any of them."

Author's notes: We say "AU", but it could maybe be canon if you disregard a line or two in JE and squint a little. The title is a line from T S Eliot's "The Love Song of J Alfred Prufrock", because we're trendy like that, apparently. Much of what you recognize is borrowed from Turn Left, and the banner is of course by [info]wild_sibyl, as I do not even have MSPaint.

Dear [info]afterthree,

Wishing you a particularly happy birthday seems somewhat self-serving because you are me. I am going to do it anyway.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY THREE. )

In conclusion, obviously my encyclopedic knowledge of things you love stands as further proof that we are the same person.

Dear World,

[info]lacunaz has written the best post-JE fic anyone has ever written, ever.

It is called "Handy" and you should go read it here because as we all know, how people refer to second!Doctor is Srs Bsnss.

That is all,

Yesterday [info]goldy_dollar and I saw "Up". It was very cute and I cried, which was probably a positive step towards convincing Frances I am not a Cylon. The talking dogs were the best part but I accept that because talking dogs are AWESOME. Whatever, princess movies, 101 Dalmatians ftw. I also took the last possible bus home and during it some creepy drunk old man came on to me. Hurrah! Unfortunately for him he will have to join the queue of creepy old men who want some of this.

I also stole from Frances "The Story of Martha" (self-explanatory) and "Winner Takes All" (Nine and Rose). It occurs to me that the Doctor Who books are kind of very hilarious but only a truly deranged branch of us are brave enough to read them, so I might do some summary/review things for lulz. And for people like [info]lacunaz who want to see Gandhi in the TARDIS but not for the price of $14.50. Also, I just really really like summarising things. I don't know, I have strange passions.

Spoilers?: Set smack-dab in Journey's End, so... yeah.
Summary: On board the TARDIS, Donna and the brand new Doctor consider the odds.
Excerpt: All right, so she’d been locked in the TARDIS and chucked into a fiery pit by angry pepper pots, and the Doctor’s pet hand had grown into a person. It wasn’t like it was the strangest thing she’d experienced.

If you haven't seen the animated Doctor Who special that is The Infinite Quest, you are probably a happier person than I. There is a reason I'm not particularly excited for the next animated adeventure. Allow me to summarise: )

Now that you're caught up, you can help me analyse what would be the only interesting portion of the entire episode... thing, if it had in fact been shown: the Doctor's ~heart's desire~!
