livii is running a ficathon for post-Doomsday Rose-centric gen. It's a 750 word limit and you'll be feeding my desire for alt!Torchwood adventures, which means it's practically a public service.

I need to write my romanathon entry. Well, I need to finish this data inputting stuff for work that's breaking my brain. But I want to be writing my Romanathon story.

Speaking of ficathons, the way lifeonmartha's going, I foresee Martha Jones being the first character to have a ficathon before she's ever appeared onscreen if I have to run it myself, so help me, I will. ETA: I have no self control.

Does Grace count? GINGER GRACE!

I can't believe I forgot Grace!

So if we count the audios and handwave Dr Evelyn Smythe in even though she's not a medical Doctor, all of them except the first two have a thing for medical types or people called 'doctor'. Hmm...

Well, considering Grace killed the Doctor, you had a good reason to forget her, medically speaking! :-)

Also, I am seriously thinking about the Marthathon, or rather a mini-ficathon with a really tiny turnaround time (a week, say) and a minimum word count of 500: do you think it would cause wank? I don't want people to think I'm being a Mean Rose H8er (because I'm not, I just think it'd be funneh).

We'd get a lot of Companion Settling In fic?

[doyle_sb4.livejournal.com]

Unless we banned discouraged it?

What about fic where it turns out she's Rose?

[doyle_sb4.livejournal.com]

*thinks* I wouldn't want to blanket-ban it because then out of fairness I'd have to say "no fic where she turns out to be the Master."

"Martha has to be Martha and not some other character IN DISGUISE"?

[doyle_sb4.livejournal.com]

That works, since the whole point would be the lols challenge of writing a character who hasn't appeared in canon yet, and making her Rose/Romana/Jack is cheating.

[nostalgia-lj.livejournal.com]

Yus for true.

What about fic where the Doctor just angsts about Rose?

[doyle_sb4.livejournal.com]

It would be banned omg. As would Rose-bashing.

Could you ban the word "ministrations"?
