The Two Doctors and other stuff

[wiseheart]

... and still unable to catch up with thigs. Have written an ungodly amount, inclusive a brand new Torchwood/Dr.Who/Special Unit 2 crossover, which is in its seventh chapter, over at otherworlds_lib and will be finished in another two chapters. No, really.

This is the first time I've tried my hands on the Doctor, and I'm a bit unsure about the results, considering that the only episodes I've seen so far were the ones with Jack Harkness in it, given me by the lovely rcfinch. At least I'm now introduced to both Doctors now, Nine and Ten, and I've come to reverse my opinion about Christopher Eccleston (of whose 9th Doctor I've once seen a brief glimpse on Hungarian TV). I've decided that I like him better. Perhaps it's an age thing, but he seems more mature and more responsible to me. The 10th Doctor reminds me a bit too much of my teenaged students in his hyperness.

Oh, and I've realised that Rose is every bit as bad as Gwen - with the only excuse of being an immature young girl.

In any case, I've updated ten old stories during the last less than two months (some of them repeatedly) and started two brand new ones, of which "Special Unit 3" is now almost finished, so I think I've used the time well enough. I hope I'll maange to finish the current part of the Wishverse as well as SU3 before school starts again. After that, writing time will be sparse again. *le sigh*

Yay! Glad you got your hands on it. Cheers for the Ninth Doctor! Much angstier too. Better actor in his own right. Tenth is good looking though, and the episodes with him and Jack were even better than the first time.

Yeah. Rose is RTD's Mary Sue. I hate how she starts interfering with all the other companions too.

Sorry for the belated reaction! I'm glad you liked Christopher Eccleston's 9th doctor, and I believe you'd like the entire first season of the new Dr. Who series. As for the Number 10, Tennant's Doctor is a bit weirder than Eccleston's, but there are a few episodes without Jack Harkness that are really worth watching, too: The Girl in the fireplace (Season 2) and the double episode Human Nature & The Family of Blood and my personal favourite Blink (all Season 3).

Oh drat! I was just in the big bookstore this week and looked for magazines to send you. There were a couple Torchwood things, but I couldn't remember whether or not you liked that one. (We don't have cable TV, so I've seen maybe 10 minutes of an episode at a friend's house. I couldn't figure out what was going on and decided I didn't really care to pursue it further.)

Next time The Belove and I have a bookstore date, I'll know to what to buy!
