Home early, because my work had their annual conference, which for most people meant listening to hours of panels on debt and repossession, and for me meant reading a Doctor Who book at the empty reception desk. My mama didn't raise no fool.

Meme! From everyone on the internets, but most recently melata_fic.

Ask Me My Fandom Opinion

How this works:
1. Ask me one fandom-related question in the comments. This can be fandom specific, general, or about fandom/lj stuff/fic writing/etc. in general. Ask anything...I'm really not bothered.
2. ONE DAMN QUESTION.-- Nah, you can ask more than one, but I might or might not answer it. [I will, because I'm odd like that. Go ahead.]
3. That's it. It can be as normal or odd as you like.

Crossover time... The Doctor's new companion is any character from any other fandom. Who do you pick?

I'm tempted by Jeff from Coupling, JD from Scrubs, and Ginny Weasley... but I'll have to go with Norrington from Pirates of the Carribean. He's so sensible and noble and British and would utterly remind the Doctor of the Brig and calm his zanier tendencies down a bit.

And now I have an absolute craving for the Jeff fic.

[doyle_sb4.livejournal.com]

Ah, but which Doctor? (This is the sort of thing that keeps me up at night...)

[paratti.livejournal.com]

He'd drive Six completely bonkers.

Oh dear, Jeff and Peri together - Jeff wouldn't know where to look (or rather he *would*...)

[paratti.livejournal.com]

He'd speak too.

And now I'm seeing a cpmpletely new version of The Twin Dilemna - with Jeff voiceover.

[melata-fic.livejournal.com]

Hee, someone else thought of Norrington as like the Brig. *loves them*

Mind you, JD in the TARDIS? That would rock. And the Doctor could be his long sought after father figure. Sort of.

JD as the Doctor's companion would be the most amazing thing ever. Wow.

[doyle_sb4.livejournal.com]

"It was at that moment I realised the Doctor was the father figure I had always wanted..." It would be great! And nobody would believe that JD had gone anywhere, since the Doctor would manage to steer the TARDIS right this time and return him before the end of his lunch break.

Late I know, but now you've intrigued me to ask your HP fandom opinions: likes/dislikes?

Most of my fondness for the books stems from the boarding school stories I devoured as a kid. I love Remus and Ginny, I like Ron and Hermione a lot in the books but less so in the movies (though I thought both actors were much better in the most recent movies), I ship pretty any combination of the Trio but prefer them as a threesome, and have a soft spot a mile wide for Maurauders-era Remus/Sirius. I like canon-Draco but he bores me in most fic. I neither love or hate Snape but think it's blatantly obvious he's not one of the bad guys. MacGonagall is awesome. Ever since Half-Blood Prince I've been convinced Ginny/Blaise Zabini would be The Sex, oh yes.
