Nyah.

There were School Reunion shenanigans on some website yesterday. The usual stuff about how Rose is a horrible horrible person for 1) daring to think she had a special relationship with the Doctor, and 2) getting snitty with Sarah Jane. Of course, what people usually fail to also mention is that 1) Sarah Jane started it and Rose finished it (not that Rose is blameless or that SJ is a horrible horrible person), and 2) the whole damn thing is the Doctor's fault.

So I'll just post this.



    Sarah Jane: Oh, Rose. The Doctor's emotional douchebaggery? Trust me. I've been there.

    Rose: *EYES THE DOCTOR*

This is exactly why there should be an ex-companion club. One that sniffs out new companions and kidnaps them for tea. :D (Liz would organize. Jo would bring healthy snacks. Mickey would bring real snacks. The Brig would be assigned to his chair in the corner for making a comment about women working. Ace would handle pyrotechnics. (As I understand is common at English teas.))

Awww, I love that scene between Rose and Sarah Jane. It ends in laughter and camaraderie, so it's all good!

And seriously? You NEED to write that fic. :D

I think someone has already! [livejournal.com profile] shinyopals maybe? :D

I wrote 800 words or so of it here and it's my new personal canon, but I fail at writing stuff without Rose (and the Doctor) so IDK if any more will ever get written.

Ex-companions would be a great spin-off show...

It would be awesome! :D

One of the few things I don't like about JE; Sarah Jane and Rose end up in different universes. :( Because yes, ex-companion club would be a thing of beauty.

Seriously, why does discussing season two, and Rose and Ten's relationship always bring out the jerks? Rose and Sarah came to the right conclusion-one that does not include Rose not being smart enough or educated enough to appreciate the Doctor's amazingness, fandom- but which targets the real issue, that the Doctor is an emotionally insecure douchebag. Yes, good has been done here!

There's quite a lot of character growth by both Rose and SJ. Basically none at all by the Doctor. Why do people ignore this?

When it comes right down to it, Mickey had it right: Alien or not, the Doctor is still a man. And a typical male. Sugar coating it ain't going to change it, lol.

Seriously? People are still talking about that stuff? They must be bored with new Who. Where was this?

50 years from now Rose will probably still bring out the rage. XD

It was on some site where some guy was watching DW for the first time. I don't read it, but followed the links.

www.markwatches.net

This guy, Mark, had a blog where he read Harry Potter for the first time (without even seeing the movies) and it got a lot of followers. When he finished with HP he spun off to two other blogs, Mark Reads and Mark Watches where he reads or watches something that he hasn't had any prior exposure to. He's been doing Doctor Who recently and it has been... interesting. lol. Lots of Rose haters in the comments.

Not sure I should even look. Does he share in the Rose hate?

[identity profile] fauxkaren.livejournal.com 2011-01-12 12:31 am (UTC)(link)
Nah. Mark doesn't hate Rose. I mean, he's watching it for the first time with no previous exposure to fandom, so it makes sense that he wouldn't. heh.

<3

TY for posting that. haha. IT'S SO TRUE. Oh Doctor, ILU but you are made of such utter fail at times.

LOL. Jo brings the healthy snacks and Mickey brings the real snacks. I will be hanging out next to Mickey, tyvm.

Of course, Martha will be rolling her eyes at the mounds of junk he brings. XD

*Pets Rose and Sarah Jane*

Fighting over the guy is not a trope I like, but Rose and Sarah Jane are adorable and sort things out. And if I had to order the main four in School Reunion by maturity level, Rose would be at the top.

Oh totally. I had someone on that blog say try to tell me that when Ten compared Mickey to a little pigtailed girl, that wasn't mocking/disrespect!! And the foo got rated up for that!! Who are these people lol? Boggles the mind, seriously.
