So. A Doctor Who and Sherlock meme.

1) Sherlock or Doctor Who?
Why can't I have both?

2) Moriarty or the Master?
The Master. Totally. No contest. Well, if there were a contest the Master would win. Hmmm. Now I'd love to see a fic where Harold Saxon wipes Moriarty off the face of the earth for sport. AWESOME.

3) Benedict or Martin?
It's guy love between two guys.... Sorry, what?

4) Favorite Doctor Who companion?
Aww, I'm gonna have to say Rose. She always will be. :)

5) Favorite Doctor?
I go back and forth between Nine and Ten, but honestly Ten is who I picture first whenever anyone says "the Doctor."

6) Favorite Sherlock Character?
John! :D He's just so awesome.

7) Favorite Sherlock Episode?
Hmm. My problem is that I've read so many fics that rehash S1 that I've kind of gotten a bit tired of them. My favorite of S2 was Hounds. It wasn't epic or didn't have anything to do with the Moriarty arc (eh, a point in its favor really), but it was the perfect casefic to me. I want 100 episodes of "THEY'RE BEST FRIENDS AND THEY SOLVE CRIME." Forget arc stuff. (Although if you want award-winning material, see the last 10 minutes of Reichenbach.)

8) Favorite Doctor Who Episode?
Oh man. I have quite a few, but I'll say "The Empty Child" since that one genuinely scared the pants off of me the first time I watched it. :D

9) Favorite Doctor Who Monster?
This thing:

10) Least Favorite Sherlock Character
Moriarty.

11) Least Favorite Doctor Who Character?
I don't know. River? Although she did have moments I quite liked, but whenever she was in "sweetie darling" mode it was like nails down a chalkboard to me.

12) The Doctor or Sherlock?
Depends. For a cage match it would make a difference if the Doctor was allowed his screwdriver and if there were any bears in there. For a douche-off...I'm not sure who'd take that one.

13) Rose Tyler or Amy Pond?
Rose. Not that I'm anti-Amy or anything. See Favorite Doctor Who Character.

14) Least favorite companion?
PERI. *wanders off muttering darkly to myself*

15) Thoughts on Mycroft/Lestrade?
Am feeling a bit more tolerant/fond of it ever since the fanservice bit in Hounds, but otherwise it really doesn't make any sense to me.

16) What do you think of Molly Hooper?
Molly is a tiny bunny that I want to keep in my pocket. However she did get some actual characterization in Reichenbach - more than the rest of the episodes combined - and that was pretty cool. Too bad I doubt she'll get much more.

17) Do you believe in Sherlock Holmes?
Since I both watched the episode and am aware of ACD canon, yes. However I really don't have any desire to spray paint anything or errect actual shrines SINCE THIS IS FICTION.

18) 10th Doctor or 11th?
Ten.

19) 9th doctor or 10th?
Both?

20) 11th Doctor or 9th?
Nine.

21) Thoughts on Johnlock?
JESUS CHRIST, QUIT CALLING IT JOHNLOCK.

22) Sherlock or Doctor Who Cast?
Erm, aren't they pretty much the same? (BINGO!)

23) Favorite Sherlock Actor?
Martin Freeman. If I didn't love him before, Reichenbach would have shoved me in that direction.

24) Favorite Doctor Who Actor?
Billie. I think she surprised the hell out of a lot of people with her actual acting chops. Plus can anyone cry as pretty as her? You only wish, DT!

Ooh, stealing this!

I just realised how many of my Sherlock opinions are basically headcanon I made up out of like two fics and a lot of trying to fix Moffat's writing. I do agree with most of your opinions on both shows (except for Moriarty, I still love him).

And I might as well try: do you happen to have any fic recs for Sherlock, preferably not too shippy? I've been having trouble finding stuff that appeals to me and you seem to have read quite a lot :)

XD I see nothing wrong with headcanon based on fic.

And "a lot" might be an understatement. :D I mostly read shipfic now, but when I started I was interested more in gen. Let's see. All of these are Gen.

In Which John Is A Disney Princess (http://soera.livejournal.com/39956.html) John has a special talent.

Driving John Insane (http://arnie1967.livejournal.com/613819.html) A missing scene from Hounds.

Sherlock the Pooh (http://archiveofourown.org/works/290886/chapters/465313) Cuteness. Everyone is a Winnie the Pooh character!

An Education (http://krabapple.livejournal.com/391500.html) An AU where Sherlock is a preschool teacher. REALLY.

Orange Doesn't Suit Me (http://archiveofourown.org/works/248886) John's a BAMF.

Major Pieces (http://archiveofourown.org/works/162152/chapters/235280) Warning: graphic violence. Casefic.

"We call it... The Pit." :D :D :D

Is Johnlock seriously a thing? Can we petition to make it not be? (The name, that is, not the pairing.)

I'd sign! And apparently Shwatsonlock is also a thing.

9) Favorite Doctor Who Monster?
This thing:

THE BUBBLE WRAP MONSTER!!! I love that thing!

I would pay money to see the fic where the Master laughs at Moriarty and swats him like a fly.

I also hate name mashups in the first place, but Johnlock is particularly heinous. It sounds too much like lockjaw to me. I am all, "When did John get tetanus?" :)

XD And the Doctor BONDS with it!

I know, right? :D

HA! I can't help thinking that Sherlock would get all stroppy about it with John's name coming first, as well as half of his name being cut off.

Thank you! I'll check these out ! :D

Aw, fun quiz!

21) Thoughts on Johnlock?
JESUS CHRIST, QUIT CALLING IT JOHNLOCK.

Whuh? John...Locke?

I DIDN'T EVEN THINK OF LOST! ONE MORE REASON IT SHOULDN'T BE USED.
