tl;dr writing blather

[mrv3000]

Dear LJ: Please to be emailing me comments. kthxbye.



You know, it's dumb. My little DW fic is so AU. And obviously the sequel I'm writing will also be utterly AU. The Martha I created last year bears no resemblance to canon Martha. Meeting up with the Face of Boe - completely different than what ended up happening in S3. Same goes for meeting up with Jack. But yet I've kinda stalled in writing it, just because of S3 stuff.

Part of it, well, a lot of it is the Doctor. Back when I wrote this, even before Torchwood had aired, I had this whole picture in my mind of what the Doctor would be like without Rose: he'd go on, basically the same as always. Oh, he'd have some "*sniff* Rose" moments, but they'd be very hidden away. He'd mourn in private, with no impact to events around him. I just did not foresee S3. Did not see him becoming just so incredibly wrecked from her loss, driving him to bad, bad places.

I ended the DW fic I did last year with them basically doing that grinning-like-fools thing, reunited and on the way back to the TARDIS. Oh, happy as clams, but... But now with S3, I'm sitting with a hand to my face, realizing I completely underplayed their reunion in my fic. And as S3 went along, I kept shifting towards more romance in the sequel. Like, every episode that went by, my mindset kept changing.

Around 42 I stopped writing on the sequel, just because half of me started thinking that Rose would kick everyone else out of the TARDIS for a month, while she let the Doctor have a good cry in her lap.

Again, this is just SO silly - my fic is AU and there's *nothing* in it that had the Doctor going off to this S3 place. But yet, I can't help being swayed by canon. *mutters*

Hmm. Maybe I need to write a cry-in-her-lap fic (not that *actual* crying in her lap would be involved, naturally) just to get it out of my system. I have the feeling my mini-not-a-fic the other day had a bit to do with this. I needed to get it out of my system. HA! Now I'm writing sequels to not-fics. imadork.

Aww. Yes! The Doctor definitely needs a month of Rose-all-to-himself-cuddle-time. Poor baby. Please write it, because I think we could all use a pick me up like that.

Heh. I know *I* would like to read a sequel with lots of romance in it. XD And most of us ALSO have a S3 mind-frame, so it might even end up working better, you know?

Guh.

Do you accept bribes? Virtual cookies? Flattery?

Send her Disney Dollars! She'll be your slave!

Note to Michelle: I'd read it.

[mrv3000.livejournal.com]

I may have no choice in writing it - I think I might need to before I can get back to the other fic universe. :D

Well, there *is* a bed scene now. *g* Although Rose commits the potentially unforgivable sin of distracting Ten away from sex. Quite easily too. He's such a nerd. Mwah.

You're probably right.

Guh.

Mwah. You probably won't have to do a thing. I think I might need to get this out of my system.

[mrv3000.livejournal.com]

Yeah, you'd read it to MOCK. :P

I hate you a little for taunting me with spoilers like that. *stomps foot*

You're probably right.

I usually am. XD

Hooray!

WITH LOVE.

(Dude, I've totally read more Doctor/Rose fic than you have.)

[mrv3000.livejournal.com]

This is very true.

[aj.livejournal.com]

HAY, remember that one time where Old Rose goes and hangs out with One so she can die and they have sex? Good times. Or, y'know that those times where Rose and the Doctor had weens? Or how there was all that badfic? GOOD TIMES, MAN.

*rubs hands* It's actually a scene I *haven't* thrown on the squee filter as part of the strangest WIP known to man.

I usually am. XD

*bows*

Oh. Well. I just have no response to that.

Or, y'know that those times where Rose and the Doctor had weens?

What the HELL are weens?? Rose was a man?!

[aj.livejournal.com]

Strangely that first one was really good. But it was by calapine, so y'know.

Dude, you suck at picking up Scottish slang. Ween = wee one. You = dork.

[mrv3000.livejournal.com]

Ohhhhhhhhhh. Ween. Yes. *ahem*

[aj.livejournal.com]

*smirks at you*

[mrv3000.livejournal.com]

Well, you never know! I distinctly remember a Jack/Danielle fic.

[aj.livejournal.com]

I THOUGHT WE AGREED WE WEREN'T EVER SUPPOSED TO TALK ABOUT THAT.

[mrv3000.livejournal.com]

:-X

[pixiesio.livejournal.com]

Ya know, I read through this post, read all the comments, and now I bloody well wan to write that head-in-lap scene...*shakes fist @ you*

*SIGH*

[mrv3000.livejournal.com]

Write it! :D

[fiona-conn.livejournal.com]

Being Scottish myself, I thought it was spelled, "wean".

Then again, I always sucked at broad Scots. *Grins*

[mrv3000.livejournal.com]

BWAH!!!

I now feel unjustifiably validated in thinking dirty things.

[pixiesio.livejournal.com]

*muttergrumble*

[beck-liz.livejournal.com]

Yes, get it out of your system, as it were. :-)

[beck-liz.livejournal.com]

Rose was a man?!

... you know, I seem to remember a story somewhere where at the end of TPotW Rose regenerated into Ten's body (the TARDIS stepping in to save her life, or something), and Nine didn't regenerate. Um. That one was pretty weird. Well-written, mind, but I couldn't wrap my mind around it, somehow. Rose certainly had trouble with it.

[beck-liz.livejournal.com]

Around 42 I stopped writing on the sequel, just because half of me started thinking that Rose would kick everyone else out of the TARDIS for a month, while she let the Doctor have a good cry in her lap.

Um, wow. Yes, please. That's soooo what he needs right now.

[mrv3000.livejournal.com]

O_O

That's.... :D

[mrv3000.livejournal.com]

Poor Doctor. :(

[pixiesio.livejournal.com]

*scribbles on scrap paper* *mutters* so totally your fault... ;P

Hold on a sec...(recalls a couple things you've mentioned about your story on other topics, goes to check), yep you are talking about one of my favorite fanfics, somehow I just hadn't realized that that had been you that wrote it. Now I'm all excited about the possibility of a sequel, but I can certainly understand how season 3 makes it hard to continue stories written before we saw it (hell, someday maybe I'll finish one of the stories I've started over the past year, most of which are highly contradictory to canon at this point).

And crying in her lap fic, hell I've been saying he needed that since Gridlock, just never managed to coherently write it.

Awww! *g*

The sequel so far is basically like a S2 episode - bouncy silliness with a bit of monsters and drama thrown in. And so it completely clashes with what's going on now. Oy.

And crying in her lap fic, hell I've been saying he needed that since Gridlock, just never managed to coherently write it.

He *so* needs that, doesn't he?
