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*

Yes, it does, thank you. So, Christopher Eccleston only got one lousy season? For shame - I liked him a lot. The 10th doctor is a bit too hyper for my taste. But it comes perhaps from getting older - one begins to value the more... mature characters. Plus, for my part, I don't really find David Tennant as pretty as he's declared on various forums.

No, no. It was by his choice. They didn't kick him off. Christopher Eccleston probably read the script for second season and decided he didn't want to get together with Rose! :p Actually, he said it was because he didn't want to get pigeon-holed into being the Doctor, like how Patrick Stewart will always be seen as Jean-Luc Picard. I can really see that happening if he did stay because I honestly like all the episodes with the 9th Doctor whereas I probably only like half of each season from the 10th.

(Wish I had source material to give the episodes to you.)

I can't blame him for having such well-honed survival instincts. ;)
