I need a new fandom like a need a hole in the head.

Doctor Who, episodes 3 & 4

1. How can I be expected to read my textbook on the National Security Agency when I am tempted with these episodes of some alien doctor fighting zombies with Charles Dickens and saving the world from alien pigs?! How, I ask you?

2. WHAT? How can it end on a cliffhanger like that? EPISODE FIVE. NOW!

3. They are so shippy. So he's an alien and probably asexual or christmas-tree-sexual or something.

Who cares?

I watched 4 seasons of Farscape, yo. Inter-species alien lovin' and black leather jackets is what TV is all about.

memlu was sweet and provided me a link with the nice version earlier.

I love it! I love that the unknown representative Ms. Jones later becomes a famous Prime Minister.

And oh my gosh, the shippyness! "I could save the world and lose you."

Even if it's just platonic, the actor gives it this passionate delivery.


the snark and fast-moving plotlines have totally sucked me in.

Yes. It's just pure fun. Fast-moving fun and good dialogue. "Lots of planet have a North!"

Did you *find* any fic? I'd love some

Here's Ivory and Horn (http://www.livejournal.com/users/taraljc/739644.html) to start you off, while I'm tracking down the other links I found. Enjoy!

Okay, the rest (and this is kind of a cop-out, since I'm going to be linking lists of links and lists of recs 'cause I'm lazy):

Recs. (http://www.livejournal.com/users/taraljc/741492.html)
More recs. (http://www.livejournal.com/users/carmen_lj/148821.html)
Doctor/Rose fics site. (http://www.loony-archivist.com/who/)
And a memories category. (http://www.livejournal.com/tools/memories.bml?user=taraljc&keyword=doctor+who+fic&filter=all)

Man, I so can't wait for more of this show. (What was that I was saying about new fandoms and holes in the head? *g*)

taraljc who is my new hero yes indeed (and wrote aforementioned Ivory and Horn) also has Ten Seconds (follows World War Three) and Wooly Jumpers, Choices, and Lemonade (follows The End of the World).
mireille719 has Five Planets Rose Tyler Never Visited.
doyle_sb4 has And I Feel Fine (follows The End of the World).
And niav has She Loves You which is cute and short and I unrepentantly adore it for being such. Also, Britpop joke! (XD)

(I'm not stalking you, I'm really not. Swear it.)

I feel kind of sheepish saying that I read all of those last night.

And almost all the ones on the other links I've been given.

[memlu.livejournal.com]

Why feel sheepish? Just means you've got good taste. *g*

(Ahaha, I tore through the fic in a frenzy a week ago and am waiting, twitchy, for more.)

When I have a new fandom, I watch/read/injest all that's out so far, then I hit the fanfiction circuits like mad. FF.net. LJ. Rec lists. Pairing lists. Everything.
