doyleSo I'm reading another of the Eighth Doctor books, Camera Obscura, which is set in Victorian London. I'd skimmed it, and happened upon a bit where Fitz is fussing at the Doctor, who sarcastically says "yes, Da." Ha, I said to myself, remembering many Spike/Angel fics, I bet this writer's a Spike fan.
Then I get to this bit:
[Anji] was smiling politely at an earnest, puffy-haired young man in a brown suit, William somebody or other, who had been introduced to Chiltern as a poet. He was chattering on at her - probably reciting some of his no doubt ghastly poetry.
*dies of fandom collision*
(Well, vampires do exist in the Who universe, and Dingoes Ate My Baby have already been name-checked in one of the novels, so I suppose anything's possible...)

on 2005-12-30 10:47 pm (UTC)(you could make the case that the series didn't happen until many many many years later than it happens in our world, and, therefore, that's what people are posting on the Internet then.
But that would be astoundingly fanwanky, and would prevent the obvious "Rose watches lots of Buffy and has spent most of her life looking for adventure like that and did a lot of What-Would-Buffy-Do thinking" ties.)
