Date: 2009-06-30 12:28 pm (UTC)O, thankyou for the linkies! & after reading all the comments - I'd COMPLETELY forgot that Shannyn Sossamon was your Fourteen! (I'm almost certain you told me once) - I've seen her before & I can't believe I didn't recognise her! (I saw her in this absolutely shitty, godawful, just, ALL AROUND BAD horror movie, but she had a beautiful dress on for pretty much all of it & she has an AMAZING figure - possibly better than Summer Glau, who's my total shape inspiration.) She makes for a perfect Fourteen!
(Also, in that horrid film, her character's name was Victoria. & her sister kept calling her 'Vic'. & THAT MADE ME CRINGE LIKE WHOA.)
Indeed, he was great and fabulous - and, it should be noted, the first official male companion since Jamie. You need to be a special one to follow those footsteps...
You know, I hadn't even realised that about him until you said it. He was indeed! & also a bit off-topic, Harry has the distinction of being my first favourite male companion, with Jamie being second, rather fittingly. :P & I shipped Harry with Sarah
& with Four, as I do Jamie with Victoria. How interesting a pattern . . . ::ponders::I read the original Human Nature novel, with Seven and Bernice Summerfield instead of Ten and Martha, and quite liked it. Seven's John Smith was much more likeable than Ten's - somewhat eccentric, and very absent-minded and adorable. And the Family was much creepier, especially the little girl; she had a balloon that killed people.
Plus there was Verity, who was a human manifestation of the TARDIS that manifested in John Smith's dreams; the girl had quite a sharp tongue, which somewhat influenced my fics, where the TARDIS talks back to Fourteen through shaking and humming.
Ooooo! Now Seven & Benny could make that storyline interesting, but gah, Ten & Martha just . . . nope, didn't do anything for me. Is it an ebook? If so, I AM SO GETTING THAT.
& I like the idea of Verity quite a bit - the relationship between the Doctor & his TARDIS is a really interesting one, I think; one I wish was explored more. I actually can't remember if I read this, heard this, or wrote it, but I always felt that the Doctor has something of a telepathic link with his TARDIS, & that he always has. I remember I DID write something like that in a fic I never actually posted - a Ten/Rose/Reinette smut fic - that Ten had a sort of emotional & telepathic sort of link with the TARDIS, which is how he sort of finds out about the relationship developing between Rose & Reinette. Well, that & Ten's own apparent powers of the mind.
& ARGH, FITZ, WHAT ARE YOU DOING IN A STORY LIKE THAT? ::sighs:: Ah, well . . . I might read it then. & just keep telling myself, 'It's all AU, it's all AU, Fitz is audio now . . . '
