Not the mind probe!

[pontisbright]

This morning, Mr Postman brought me The Five Doctors, Serenity, and THREE bars of Green & Blacks. My siblings, they are good people. All Mondays should be like this.

Have seen The Five Doctors a thousand million times and it never fails to make me flail with glee. Things which especially popped out on this viewing:



* Putting Five and One together for so much of it was a bloody masterstroke.

* I still really like the Raston Warrior Robot and its enthusiastic gay jumping.

* If anyone ever tries to suggest that the Master does not want to shag the Doctor, show them the scene where the High Council explain their 'plan'. The man is drooling, I tell you, drooling! (Though he has naff all chemistry with Three: suppose Fancy Pants only goes for Delgado!Master.)

* Special edition = teh suXXor. The extra doomy ceiling in Rassilon's chamber is quite good. The swirly cone thing is not. And I swear, according to my 8-year-old brain, that at the end, in the One True Version, the TARDIS did a repeated dematerialisation thing which was awesome. (I may be wrong about this: when I was 8 I liked Roland Rat and therefore am an unreliable witness.)

* Zoe's dress doesn't look like bubble-wrap. It is bubble-wrap. Did she wear bubble-wrap in the original series?

* The minute he gets to Gallifrey, Fivey puts on a phenomenal amount of eyeliner. He clearly ran away to escape his inner tranny.

* That bit where there are loads of Cybermen on a hill and no one notices them for ages is arse.

* I slightly hate Sarah. *ducks*

* One appears to not even slightly recognise the Master, which buggers up all thoughts that Koschei resembles the beardy velvety-gloved one. Poop.

* OMG so much hand!porn at the beginning. And how unspeakably brilliant is the bit where One orders Tegan off to make tea, and Fivey sends Turlough too?

* Green & Black's Hazelnut and Currant Dark Chocolate is rather wonderful. (Not technically part of the viewing experience, but highly recommended.)


Think Captain Tight-Pants might have to wait till tomorrow: I have an urge to iconify some high-res handporn.

Is the FUF masterlist up to date? People are pestering me to make polls!

[pontisbright.livejournal.com]

Heh, good question. I was having an angst earlier about what qualified as FUF, and managed to persuade myself that since Master/Turlough and Master/Five was so very plausible that it didn't count. I think I may have broken my brain and lost track of what is text and what is subtext.

Should I put the new Benton/Yates on there? Again - it's practically canon! (This is apparently my new catchphrase, to replace the Black Guardian.)

I think otherwise it's up to date. Will happily make 'prize' icons if that's the sort of think people might like.

[spiritedchaos.livejournal.com]

Master/Turlough does count - you're not fooling anyone my dear! At the very least the premise of Evil!Turough is f*cked up.

I think any post that starts/ends "the Black Guardian made me do it" is a good bet - Benton/Yates is genuine sensible fic.

Prize icons are a good idea. Should I feel vaugely guilty about posting these things and horning in on the mod's action? Maybe I should ask.

[pontisbright.livejournal.com]

Heh, cheers: have lost all sense of logic. Will update the masterlist now.

Don't worry about moddage - Tabi emailed back (eventually) to say she was chuffed with how much attention the comm was getting and that she was a bit busy but to go ahead with FUF, so doubt she'll mind at all.

[spiritedchaos.livejournal.com]

Is it worth gauging response for a challenge for next month then?

[pontisbright.livejournal.com]

From Tabi, you mean? Don't think she would mind, but maybe chuck her an email anyway?

[spiritedchaos.livejournal.com]

Well from the comm, but that's a good idea.

[pontisbright.livejournal.com]

Oh, actually, that's a good plan.

Poll: would you like March to be the month of:

* Master/Doctor
* Doctor/Master
* Koschei/Theta
* all of the above?

:D

I like the way you're thinking there!
That icon never used to say that right?

[pontisbright.livejournal.com]

I made several:)

I like the way you're thinking there! - there's a surprise.

I quite like the idea of a good/evil challenge, myself: has scope for more evil!Doctor weirdness. But straightforward (!) bondage is also fine...

[spiritedchaos.livejournal.com]

We need to insinuate Evil!Doctor into the collective group psyche first I think, then set the good/evil challenge - April maybe? I've mailed Tabi so we'll see what she says but bondage is popular, and that way we can have a new mascot too!

I'm edging towards preferring a bondage challenge anyway because or all the er...dramatic potential in the er...

I want to draw more tie!pr0n.

[pontisbright.livejournal.com]

I want you to draw more tiepr0n. So that should work out well for everyone.

Also, bondage = Turlough.
