I have just completed by last paper for my second year, and I thought I would celebrate by spamming your flists with more Very Important Polls.

[Poll #1380490]

I used a highly scientific method to determine the options you see before you. If you would like an option explained or would like to suggest one, you may say so. ENJOY.

Smeyer is like rule34 for fandoms only instead of porn there's destruction and general fail.

height of the ~storm approaching~ angst that is so overblown in fandom
I haven't encountered this tbh but I can see why it bothers you. Besides Ten and Rose were always too reckless and happy in each other's presence to think about any kind of consequence, it's more likely they'd think about it in silence and then distract each other with something silly.

Donna even SAYS that the reason neither of them thought of spinning the Daleks arund (LIRL) is because they lack that bit of human gut-instinct that she has.
TOTALLY. OH SO MUCH YES. I am quite disappointed that the major part of shipper-fandom has totally neglected to grasp this. It's almost as annoying as reading about a Ten2 who has forgotten how to speak anything but Gallifreyan and/or what his proper name is. WUT?

Hahahah oh god the Jack/Ten fics. The "best" ones are about how a depressed Ten comes onto Jack because he needs someone who can make him ~feel~ again. Like he ever cared about Jack in that way? It's more like he thinks of Jack as a stray dog who's had a rough life and he feels sympathy for it.

I am sure I'm going to miss most of the nuances of the fic because linguistics were never my forte, but thanks! I'm actually glad it's not slashy, IDK it just doesn't do it for me. I'm just on a hunt for more Master/Ten interaction like the phone-scene in tSoD

OMFG WHAT THE HELL DID I JUST WATCH? :D :D :D It makes me feel a deep spiritual satisfaction, and I also want to dress in drag if it can make me as fabulous as that.
Would the Doctor be Rudolph?

I dunno in those fics they're usually already sleeping together anyway, so they've already fallen down on my canon-compliant credibility scale. I can see the Doctor angsting about it in the same distant way I imagine him angsting about anything in s2, which is to say some part of him is always stuck on the "WITHER AND DIE" thing but then he probably just giggles and has pillow fights with Rose to ignore it.

Yeah idk. I don't think Ten2 is just Doctor's memories + a human body, I prefer to think of him as some sort of genetic mutt. But that might be because that way I can just make crap up about his phsyiology as I go along. Like, "yeah he totally sleeps like a human but he's still telepathic, what of it?"

I am totally fascinated by Gallifreyan but the use of it in fics sometimes makes me cringe. It depends, I am picky. I really like how it's used in that fic I just linked you to and I like how the_tenzo described it, but sometimes it's just awkwardly done. I don't know, I am picky. I might write fic dealing with it eventually because I am intrigued, though, so I could just be a huge hypocrite. And the Doctor's name I am choosing to ignore beyond its basic existence. F u, River Song.

Ten totally only has a passing interest in Jack. Jack would be up for it, but Ten so wouldn't be, LIRL. Omg, and Jack meeting Eleven gives me total lulz.

I'm not big on slash either, mostly becaues I'm such a canon whore, and while I see that obviously there was some kind of bizarre tension going on in SOD/LoTL, I don't think it's the kind of tension that translates into anal sex. I think it was more complicated than that. But maybe that's just me.

Having said that, THIS IS MY FAVOURITE THING EVER. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GHU2R18MMEQ)

That's the beauty of Ten2, he bloody grew out of a HAND, pretty much anything goes regarding his physiology. Even if there are some limits I suppose.

Jack is forever bitter that he'll end up a gigantic face with tentacle-dreads while the Doctor just keeps on getting younger the older he is, that bastard!

I'm a canon-lover as well, especially when it comes to shows that really do have good canon. Sometimes other stuff can be fun as well, but generally I'm satisfied with canon.

That vid is beautiful, the fact that twirling tutu-clad teletubbies really were in the episode makes it SO MUCH BETTER

It's kind of like the TARDIS. No one really gets it so you just make shit up.

My favourite part of Jack being Boe is thinking about how much eh must've been lolling when Cassandra kissed the Doctor. I choose to believe this was in his line of sight.

AUs in this show make more sense than AUs for other shows, but still, I generally feel the need to comply wiht canon.

YES. The teletubbies have to be the greatest thign in that epiosde because omfg.
