You can't spell fannish divergence without 'fun'! Except you totally can.

March-ish 2005: doyle_sb4 is persuaded, very reluctantly, to watch Rose, first episode of the new Doctor Who series; she whines that she's not at all interested in DW but is swayed by the fact that the episode's written by Russell T Davies, creator of (the original) Queer as Folk.
Three viewings of same episode later: connorbeast asks "so, do you want to just write Buffy fandom that Dear John letter now?"
March 2006: doyle_sb4 looks at her floor-to-ceiling bookcase full of DW books, videos and DVDs and thinks "you know, I must get onto that."

God, I hate it when I go third-person. Anyhoo, I'm just dropping a note here to say that if any of you guys have me friended purely for Buffyverse fic/stuff and are liable to be very annoyed if I start talking even more about Doctor Who than I have been doing - and I want to, it's my exclusive shiny lovely One True Fandom and I want to do the squeeing and reviewing thing and have been holding back for fear of annoying people, which is kind of insane - like it says on my userinfo, every day's defriending amnesty day and I understand completely if you want to take me off your reading list. (I'll probably reciprocate, since I'm rapidly approaching LJ's mythic 750 friends limit). I promise I will neither hunt you down like a wild dog nor shed an emo tear as I wonder where it all went wrong.
