Ah sweet obsession...

[elisi]

'Children in Need' is on in less than 15 minutes, and I've got a tape all ready to record the teeny tiny little Doctor Who snippet we'll be treated to... Oh and I'm recording John Barrowman's piece as well, of course, whatever it might be. *is impatient*

Speaking of obsession, awmp has a poll. Which was ridiculously easy for me, cause I don't even watch SPN. But, it prompted me to write down what it is about certain characters that makes me fall for them. This is my rudimentary list that all my fannish crushes fulfill:

a) Not human.
b) At least a hundred years old (/immortal)
c) Must preferably have died a few times...
d) Oh and if he's flirted with (or crossed) the good/evil line, or ruthlessly killed people/creatures/whatever [insert varying circumstances] - I'm there!

Or, in other words, I love vampires with souls and Timelords with brown eyes... ;)

I still love the fact, that one of your requirements is "ruthlessly killed people/creatures/whatever"
*chuckles*

It's a thing... *g* (Not a 'Bad Boy' thing, 'cause I don't think you could ever put The Doctor in *that* particular box, but a willingness to do whatever it takes.)

Right there with you on the vampire thing.

Would be with you on the DW thing too (or more likely to be) if Chris Eccleston had stayed in the role.

Who doesn't?

Well, to be honest I loved soulless Spike too...and Giles and Ethan so I guess I should add a few parameters to my list. ;- )

Can't wait to see David Tennant in DW again!

Oh I loved him too - but I didn't obsess (funny what tips people over the edge). But - I remember watching 'Bad Wolf' (the one before 'The Parting of the Ways') just after coming home from seeing Star Wars 3, and Eccleston just knocked me out with how brilliant and understated he was, compared to the ridiculous OTT acting of SW!

Oh I'm sure there's *someone* who's immune... *g*

And of course I love soulless Spike too - he's kinda included in the package. ;)

Christmas can't come soon enough!!!

In all fairness I love timeords with blue eyes just as much, and my patheticness is easily shown in the fact that instead of eating or doing laundry before work I'm trying to find the children in need clip on-line!

And the world clearly needs more DW/BtVS crossovers!

[elisi]

Timelords generally are made of pure win, I find! :)

And yes, the world needs a LOT more DW/BtVS crossovers. And not just because I have a cross-over kink...
