Wishing a Happy Birthday to ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
chloris67! You get a Doctor icon, rather than my usual Spike one, since I seem to remember that you like DT?
*clears throat*
Also, I thought this might be a neat opportunity to share this vid (not that it has anything to do with birthdays, it's just funny). I give you, from Horrible Histories, 'The 4 Georges' with 'Born 2 Rule':
Genius, that's what that show it. Pure, unadulterated, genius!

And I'm home sick and feeling sorry for myself, but that video made me laugh! Granted it also made me cough, but I'll take the laugh. :D I may have to rent "The madness of King George" again!

Indeed.

Well they say that laughter is the best medicine, so... ;)

I don't know what your icon means so I'm all thrown by your comment!
no subject
(My keyword for the icon is 'headbook' - I use it like I would 'headdesk'. The quote just gives it that added something. *g*)
no subject
Tbh, I didn't catch it as *headdesk* because it looked more like the Doctor was so in love with the book that he'd pressed it lovingly to his forehead. You know, 'cause of the slow mo' shift and my being a bibliophile.
And come now, Beer Good isn't the only one who gets to make the bad jokes!

Oh good! I did wonder - it seems like a pre-requisite for joining any fandom. :)

*groans* Although I think on the show he does smell it... the editing of the icon just works rather well to make it look like he's hitting himself in the face.
ETA: Wondered why bibliophile rang a bell, and just realised it was from my 'Immortal' fic. I shall quote it, because it amuses me. Sorry. *g* Background: The Immortal is picking up Buffy for their first proper date (this is after all kinds of stuff which has led Buffy to decide that she rather likes and trusts him). Dawn and Andrew are there too...
~~~~
But then Andrew pushed himself forwards again.
"I'm so sorry, but do you think you could sign my book. I mean, your book. I mean, my copy of your book. I sleep with it."
The Immortal - for the first time Buffy had seen - looked genuinely worried and concerned, and Buffy sighed deeply. "This is Andrew. He's my... he's the local Watcher. Sort of. He used to be an annoying nerd with evil pretensions, now he's a reformed annoying nerd with watcherly pretensions. But he does know a lot about demons, which is why I haven't kicked him back to London. Yet."
Andrew however ignored her completely and, with mute adoration in his eyes, held out the book and a pen.
After a moment The Immortal took both, and - clearly trying to curb a grin - wrote on the front page of the book. He handed it back and then turned to Buffy, holding out his arm. "Shall we?"
Grabbing a coat she grinned back. "I think we shall!"
"Wait - where are you taking her? And when will you be bringing her back? And... what exactly are your intentions?"
Dawn was doing her best mom-impersonation, but The Immortal was utterly unfazed.
"Considering how late it is, I was thinking of taking her out stargazing - which would probably take all night. And as for my intentions... Well, I'm open to suggestions!"
Buffy laughed, then suddenly had a thought. "Oh - by the way, if you ever have some spare time, do you think you could check out some guy called Marco? Usually spotted in the vicinity of my sister, or a Harley, and covered in leather. I think he's evil - or possibly gay - and would like to know for sure."
"Sounds like something I'd be very happy to do!" The Immortal smirked, and Dawn scowled.
"You know she's evil, right?" she said, pointing to Buffy, but The Immortal just grinned and wrapped an arm around Buffy's waist.
"Excellent! I like my women evil."
Shooting Andrew a swift look, Buffy couldn't help proving her wickedness by asking: "How do you like your men?"
Following her gaze, The Immortal's smiled deepened.
"Naked!" he replied, catching Andrew's eyes and holding them until the other turned a new and very interesting shade of scarlet.
Buffy thought that her sources had only been a little wrong. He wasn’t perfect perfect - just perfect for her!
In the car, she - curious - asked what he'd written in Andrew's book.
The Immortal smirked. "Just a little advice. If he's sleeping with the book, he's been reading it wrong. Unless there's a chapter on bibliophilia at the back, which I doubt. Although I've never actually read through the whole thing, so I could be wrong."
Buffy stared. "You've not read your own book?"
He shot her a surprised look. "I know what it says. Why would I read it?"
She blinked, trying to wrap her head around his words. "That's- I'm confused. You are confusing. 'Splainy?"
He chuckled. “Well, I know what it says because it’s about my life philosophy or whatever it’s called these days. And I haven’t read it because I didn’t write it. Which - by the way - is a secret, so don’t go mentioning it, okay?”
“Sure,” she replied, slowly nodding. “So... you hired a ghost writer?”
A sideways smile and a slight shake of the head. “Not exactly... First of all I didn’t hire him, he came to me, and second he was an actual writer ghost.”
And the weirdness just kept coming. “Writer ghost? As in... a ghost that writes?”
