apple_pathways: Whatever floats your boat! (Lit Nerd)

It has just occurred to me that, though I am going to a Super Bowl party tomorrow, I have no idea which teams are playing. (Shh, don't tell me! I want to get there and annoy all the men by being completely clueless! Last year I won 30 bucks in a pool, despite having never heard of the player I chose! It was EPIC!)

In other news: QUIT SNOWING, GODDAMMIT! I want to go bowling! :P

I really do hope more people make claims for Doctor Who--it's my favorite fandom to read in, and there aren't more than a couple claims at the moment. I really should have claimed a Who prompt instead of the Hunger Games one, but I promised I was going to 'branch out' for this fest. (Why did I do that?)

I think I have about eight lines of verse at the moment. I've been doing some research, trying to get the hang of dactylic hexameter, and I think I'm finally making headway. I keep wanting to make iambs, though, and am finding it very hard to begin each line with a stressed syllable.

Oh yeah! THAT GUY was Rassilon! I don't wanna him sexing anybody, personally: I think it's the funny costumes that seem to rob the Time Lords of any sex appeal. (I'm doing my best here not to start ranting about that disastrous return. What a waste of a plot line! "OMG, the Time Lords made it! They're not dead after all! BUT WAIT THE DOCTOR'S GOING TO KILL THEM ALL OVER AGAIN!" Stupid emo bullshit...)

There is far too much 'the Master is evil and sexy' fic floating around out there. There needs to be more, 'the Master is just evil' fic. (Evil, and psychologically complex: we know dude's got issues.)

Doctor Who is my favorite fandom to write in... though you wouldn't guess it, really, since I've only written about one fic for it.

The compulsion to "branch out" is evil. (-; So far I've managed to channel mine into working in different genres, but it still doesn't completely shut up.

I've been doing some research, trying to get the hang of dactylic hexameter, and I think I'm finally making headway.

I love you. That is all.

Back when I was rping Simm!Master I had a hugely hard time playing him because of how very sexual he is (no doubt meant as a contrast to the Doctor's general (quasi-)asexuality). So I get nervous about writing him in a context that might require exercising that characteristic. But, I mean... revenge!fic. If there's any slashiness, it's going to be in the form of past hero-worship and the Master getting off a bit on being bloody evil, not... well, okay I guess I can see it in that context now that I think about it. But I don't see him going through with it. (I should probably spend some time writing tonight so I'm not sitting around entertaining ideas for these two prompts, the space opera, and my fic for the game is on all at the same time.)
