fandom_stocking roundup of win!

[eponymous_rose]

Okay, so you guys are pretty much the most amazing group of people ever. You know that, right?

Now I must rec! Apart from the spectacular icons that I have linked hereabouts, I received a spectacular assortment of fic:

- tigerkat24 took one of my very favourite eras of Doctor Who (Third Doctor, hurrah, since it features the 70s and a lot of running around!) and determined exactly what comes afterwards, when Liz, Jo, and Sarah Jane get to talking. Awesome.

- amaresu wrote a lovely little Doctor/Cameca piece that made me squee, verily. I love my obscure Doctor Who, I do! (Cameca/Doctor is the original (and canon!) OTP, guys. Accept no substitutes! Monochrome forever!)

- netgirl_y2k brought my two favourite fannish Donnas together, for an exponential increase of AWESOME. Together, they will clearly rule the world.

- lilacsigil wrote The Cacophonic Casket Catastrophe (part two is here), which is an absolutely perfect mini-missing-episode of The Middleman and features the exclamation "Bach's Toccata and Fugue in D minor!" It is spectacular.

- elliptic_eye wrote Three-Voice Canon on the Fourth, which is an inexpressibly silly and clever and wonderful rip-off pastiche of Gödel, Escher, Bach, featuring the Fourth Doctor, Leela, and the Tortoise. And lo, there are puns, and so I am squeeful beyond measure.

- cosmic_celery wrote Excerpts from the Relatively Sequential Diary of Perpugilliam Brown (part two is here), which neatly bridges the gap between the Fifth Doctor's television era and the Erimem audios, and provides a nice glimpse of closure, too (as much as you can ever get with the Doctor, anyway). Really lovely!

- agapi42 took a look at a little moment of melancholy after The Christmas Invasion, and it's absolutely breathtaking. Packs a real punch in very few words - spectacular writing. :D

- imsane_honest wrote Boxes and Shrubbery (part two is here), which is an absolutely hilarious script-formatted crossover between Doctor Who and The Middleman. The voices are just bang-on, and it is amusing and witty, and oh my goodness it's fun!

- primsong put everybody's favourite Scots from Doctor Who and TOS in a (console) room together. It is absolutely, wonderfully hilarious.

Anyway, that was an amazing experience, and I'm definitely looking forward to next year! :D

Now go tell these people how awesome they are!

I want to give imsane_honest flowers, or my firstborn, or something. I've watched exactly one (1) episode of TMM and I think I nearly killed myself laughing at that fic.

[eponymous-rose.livejournal.com]

Ooh, as well you should, for she is awesome! (I think I may have already promised her my firstborn, though, since she was the one who got me into Doctor Who and all. Ahem.)

Totally predictable reply: You should watch more Middeman, also! :D

So about those icons I promised you!




I point out that I just started making icons and I'm not very good.

[scarletsherlock.livejournal.com]

OH my gosh, those are awesome! I began to wish after these started being posted that I had done it, too. What fun!

*ponders* I shall accept this offering of a first born if said child is made out of chocolate or something equally yummy and delicious. *wink*

[imsanehonest.livejournal.com]

*blush*

And then you introduced me to The Middleman, The West Wing, and countless other things of the ultimate win.

I suppose that means you get my first born as well? Or should we skip the baby exchanges and settle with jelly beans instead? *hopeful*

[eponymous-rose.livejournal.com]

Jelly beans >>>> babies. Clearly a matter of priorities! Also, they're much easier to, um, cram into floppy drives and such, for transport across the Intertubes.

(Also, happy birthday! A post of epic awesome is coming up as we speak!)

[eponymous-rose.livejournal.com]

Eeee, awesome! Doctor, nothing, she's the oncoming storm y/y?

[eponymous-rose.livejournal.com]

I think it'll be a smash hit next year - it was a much bigger thing this year than last year, by the looks of things, and I'm betting participation will increase exponentially. I was utterly, totally overwhelmed by it all. :D

Can't wait for next year!

Trufax. The Doctor must have learned to duck.

Also, I had to look at SO MANY pictures of Elisabeth Sladen to find the perfect picture for this icon. And then I had to look at a lot more to be sure it was the perfect icon. How terrible of you, making me look at all those pictures of her. I may never love you more. :D
