Why, I think it's time for pointless polling! :D

[eponymous_rose]

It's been a month since I did that crazy New Year's Resolution to write every day, so I guess now's the time to pick up some comments. Love? Hate? Am I absolutely insane for clogging your friendslists so?

[Poll #1130895]

Also, as always, any fic-related prompts would be most welcome. :D

Bonus points: Rec me some fic! Pretty please?

You've probably already read all the fic I've read!! *wails* But I'll try.

"Five Times the Doctor and Martha have sex in 1969" Not quite what it sounds like. Supposed to be crack, and I thought it was pretty funny. The end goes into a bit of R-rated territory, and the last line made me howl.

"You Know My Name" This. Boggled. My. Brain. I loved it.

"Nothing But Flowers" I don't know how you are on "shipping". I'm not really all that into it, but sometimes I will read it if it's good. This one is totally shippy. It's Martha/Ten, and there's a good bit of really hot sex in it, along with some allusions to some squicky previous Doctor actions. I'm not really all that into porn fics, either, when it comes to Holmes or Doctor Who, but this whole story is so good I even enjoyed that. The good part about it, though, is the conversations between the two of them. I was blown away by the last chapter, especially. This is post "Last of the Time Lords" and both of them are hurt and traumatized. They really lay it all out there, and it's painful, heartbreaking, and completely fantastic. And it's something we'll never, ever see on the show.

"18, Goshawk Ave." Another one set in 1969-"Blink" era. I like the Martha-centric stories a lot. This writer actually has a few that are good.

I didn't do the survey :( . Only because I've heard about your Sherlock Holmes/Dr. Who crossover and heard it was sooo good...so I vote with that...even though I haven't read it, because I've read your other stuff which is great and I know the crossover just *has* to be good...Did that make any sense? I'll look forward to you posting that where ever...when ever...

Of course..me Holmesian me want more Holmes.

I've been doing a Holmes/Who/Torchwood crossover in a series of flashes at Letters of Mary. I'm doing the 9th doctor and Rose. SS knows about it...She can give you an honest downlow...I can only do flashes cos that's all I have time for at the moment. You know...dissertation...dissertation..dissertation...dissertation...
Holmes better look out though...Cap't Jack's back!

Nice comment on SS's birthday fic BTW, planting plot bunnies!

Got ur message too and glad you liked that bit of birthday crack at HN! I'm glad you had a great birthday!

I don't know how you do it, but man you are kicking some serious backside in everything. I must follow your model. Man if I could churn out my dissertation that way...:) .

I've henceforth come to the conclusion that you do not have enough music-y ramblings. Or perhaps even musical ramblings. And some way to delay fic so I can catch up on it without nagging afterwards.

Fic recs! I assume you don't want all...ooh, 400 bookmarks, of which I've only recently been building up the classic Who section.
Lets see if I can't choose a few highlights you might not have come across, balanced overall; but I will fail horribly.
These involve Rose but I tried to vary the style:
Ten, Rose- mathbabble: Expectation and Maximization
Post Doomsday (just Rose/altTorchwood) 4 chs: Here There Be
Post Doomsday Fourth and Rose: Roaming Charges (part two, there's a link to part one)
Alt Universe- mainly Ninth, Rose, 12 chs: People Used to Dream About the Future
Parting of the Ways Alt Universe of sorts (long): The Candle That Burns Brightest
Alt Universe- Ninth, Rose, OC 2 chs: The Spy Who Came In with A Cold
Crossover with HHGG- Nine, Rose, Arthur, Ford 3 chs: the people you meet (the things are also people)
Nine, Rose, physics/Cold War history (longish): The Bubble Chamber
Nine, Rose 3 chs: What It Means
Nine, Rose (long): Ivory and Horn
Nine, Rose [apparently inspired by Scientific American, or something along those lines]: Defining Moments
Nine, Rose 3 chs: Ambition
PotW Alt Universe of sorts (long): Song for Rose
Nine, preRose: Perpetual Motion
Ten, Rose, other incarnations (longish): Phoenix
Post Doomsday crossover with Heroes if you're so inclined: Survival
Alt Universe crack with Ten, Rose, Master: Human Women

Martha-era fics (post LotTL), of which I have pitifully few.
Crossover with SGA *cough*: Burning a Hole Right Through
Martha meeting Rose: Coffee and Biscuits
You may have already heard of the strangely (but appropriately) formatted poetry/fic The Frozen Hours.

Master/Lucy, which I find utterly fascinating, but will only rec one:
Destroy All Humans

My first Seven fic read: Concerto for Spoons and time

My first Six and Peri fic read (of which I have a surprising amount...?): Unbirthday
Another one: The Sky Was Good for Flying

And a multi-era of sorts: After Life
