"I'm going home to where stuff make sense."

[starsthatshine]

Welcome jenniferkaos to my flist. I hope you'll have a good time here.

I survived first day at work, and to be honest, I think that the people that work there kind of adore me. Sort of. Wow, that came out as self-centered. Anyway, the reason I'm saying that is because they kept talking to me, joking and generally it felt like they were paying more attention to me (in a good way) than the other three that are working there with me. Might be because I was there last summer too, but still... it's good.

I wouldn't say that I'm stuck with my Molly/Micah series. I'm just... deadly terrified of not writing it well enough. Words seem to sort of come out sort of forced and not very emotional. But I'm not gonna force it and show you guys something I'm half-pleased with because... I write this generally to get the plot bunnies out of my system but also for my own enjoyment.

I also wish that I could be a one-fandom girl. Like have mood themes, layouts and everything about my LJ about one single fandom instead of spreading it out, growing in and out of fandoms etc. Like some Supernatural fans on my flist. I really admire your devotion that you have for a show. I wish I could have that. I can have moments when I am like that, but it doesn't last as long as it has for some of you guys. Heroes and Doctor Who is the two fandoms that are growing close to becoming that, DW is catching up with Heroes because of the awesomeness last episode, but I have a feeling that it won't last. I don't know when Doctor Who became a fandom that's letting me down. Don't think it was because of Doomsday (even though it might appear so), because I know at least five people who gets that kind of grief every time they say the show isn't what it used to be. Doctor Who seems to be more about the monsters, arcs etc. than the characters and that bothers me. I don't like two-dimentional characters, half-finished character development and actions that makes no sense.

Heroes then? Don't worry, I'm not letting go of this baby for a loooooooong time. I just think the reason why I'm not squeeing so much about it at the moment is the following:

• Lack of news


• Not rewatching episodes


• It's on hiatus

But don't worry... I bet my Heroes squee will come back with a fury.

psh. being one fandom is just silly.
once again, i'll agree with you that there's been some half assed character development this season of DW. i've developed a giant fanfic addiction to try to make up for it. :)

Yeah, fan fics are good, but the thing is that I really want to like Martha/Doctor, like you do, for example, but canon makes it impossible. I wonder what kind of drug the writers have started. Doctor Who used to be about two leads - The Doctor and Rose - they both had their emotional moments, messing things up, background etc. but now it's one lead and its sidekick. I wanna like Martha, but it just makes it difficult because well... she has like three facial expressions and there's not much more I've seen from her.

mm. it is a tricky sort of situation. i mean, a lot of it exists in my head. and then i rewatch smith and jones and get kind of mushy when he carries her to the door and is just praying for the judoon to return them to earth. a lot of the fandom thinks that martha's gearing up for something big in the finale, which i'm not entirely sure i see, but that's because i thought the use of martha and freema's acting was rather subpar last week and i was rather disappointed with that aspect. but we'll see. as you know (since we've had this conversatoin, oh, five million times. :D ) i am totally with you on missing martha development. hopefully RTD will use her better next season.

We might have it five million times but it's fun nonetheless, no? ;)

If she's back next season ;) Although, I must say, if she wouldn't return, her depature might be a bit sudden. Also, do you remember all that talk there was before the show started about Martha having a love interest? I'm still waiting on that ;)

[anythingbutgrey.livejournal.com]

haha, yes. :-D

i choose to ignore the sun. freema says she's back next season, as does everyone else, so i'm on the boat.

i feel like martha's love interest was the doctor. i didn't read that, but her having a love interest doesn't mean she has to BE a love interest.

If I remember correctly she said something along the lines of: "And towards the end of the season, she'll get a love interest." or something like that. I interpreted it like it wasn't the Doctor, but someone else.
