Ian: "It died a slow and painful death when those bats came out of the rafters." and
"That is the dematerializing control. And that, over yonder, is the horizontal hold. Up there is the scanner, those are the doors, that is a chair with a panda on it. Sheer poetry, dear boy. Now please stop bothering me." Also from One.

For new!Who, it's definitely Current UNIT Guy: "Latest firing stock; what do you think, Doctor?"

Random Girl: "Yeah, but do you know how to fly a shuttle?"

CJ: "No human skills?"
Danny: "Seems to me..."
CJ: "I should punch you in the face."
Danny: "That's what I'm talking about."
CJ: "Keep going..."
Danny: "So, if I'm gonna jump off the cliff, and you're gonna get pushed off the cliff, why don't we hold hands on the way down?"

White Collar: Either "I'm an internationally known art thief and tonight I am here to rob you - cheers! " or "We know why I am naked - why are you?" Both of which are unsurprisingly Neal.

And I will strive not to get behind again.

Day 14 - Favorite male character
GUYS. Stop making me play favorites. It never ends well.
BSG: Tie between Adama pere and Helo.
Buffy The Vampire Slayer: GILES. <3333333 Giles.
Castle: Actually it's probably Demming. *shifty eyes*
Doctor Who: Far and away the Doctor. All of them. With Six and One leading the pack.
Dresden Files: Morgan. I love him more than Harry and Bob both. Sorry, guys.
Firefly: WASH. <333333 Wash. Serenity didn't happen.
Leverage: Hardison.
Lie to Me: Eli Loker. I seem to find his jerkishness adorable.
MASH: Alan Alda Radar. Radar's adorable.
Middleman: MIDDLEMAN WOOT WOOT.
Pushing Daisies: Probably Emerson. He's funnier and less morose than Ned.
Sarah Jane Adventures: If you frequent my journal, you know by now that I'm a pervy Luke fancier.
Stargate: DANIEL. I go for the geeky guys, clearly.
Xena: Cupid. What can I say, I'm a sucker for itty-bitty baby Karl Urban.
X-files: FROHIKE. Well, actually, Byers, but I just love shouting "FROHIKE" at unexpected moments.
West Wing: Either Toby or President Bartlett. It's a close call.
White Collar: Peter. Neil may be hot, but Peter has my heart.


Day 15 - Favorite female character
BSG: Laura Roslin. No contest. Everyone please act surprised for a moment.
Buffy The Vampire Slayer: Joyce Summers, with Dru a close second.
Castle: Alexis Castle. She reminds me of me. I probably flatter myself, though.
Doctor Who: Sarah Jane Smith. I want to BE her.
Dresden Files: Murphy. Duh.
Firefly: Kaylee in terms of who I'd like to hang with, River in terms of most-interesting.
Leverage: Parker. She's awesome, and it's really nice to see someone with Asperger's properly portrayed.
Lie to Me: Emily Lightman. Sensing a "daughters" theme?
MASH: MARGARET HOULIHAN FUCK YEAH. I mean, I realize she's basically the only recurring female character, but she is also badass as all-get-out and everyone should just bow to her awesome. Once she realizes how badass she is and dumps Frank, I expect to be much happier with the show. Seriously, Margaret, DUMP FRANK.
Middleman: Wendy. Though this one's a tough call.
Pushing Daisies: Probably Olive, but it's a narrow squeak and mostly because she is Kristen Chenoweth.
Sarah Jane Adventures: Once again, Sarah Jane Smith.
Stargate: Dr. Janet Fraiser.
Xena: Gabrielle.
X-files: SCULLY FUCK YEAH. Ahem.
West Wing: CJ FUCK YEAH. Ahem.
White Collar: Elizabeth Burke is made of win. You know this to be true.

Day 16 - Your guilty pleasure show
Glee. I hate the characters (except Sue) and I hate the plots, but god, those musical numbers keep sucking me back in.

Day 17 - Favorite mini series
JOHN ADAMS. Okay, this was a given because I'm a major John Adams fangirl, but it's also well-acted and well-directed and I just. I love it so much.

Day 02 - A show that you wish more people were watching

The Sarah Jane Adventures, definitely. I love SJA. I love it hardcore. It's basically Doctor Who, but with Sarah Jane (who is incredible) and her gang of preteens, one of whom is her adopted son and the other three are sort of tagalongs but we love them anyway, and her alien computer (named Mr. Smith, but we won't examine her reasons for calling him that too closely) and her robot dog (K9! We love you, K9!). The writing is pretty consistently excellent (except for The Gift, but whatevs, that hit my protective-mama kink pretty hard so I forgive it). Like Stargate SG-1, the group's damsel in distress is not in fact a woman (hi there, Luke). I have a fairly massive crush on Luke (because I am a pervy Luke fancier) and Sarah Jane (because how can you not), and I am told that Maria, Rani and Clyde (and Maria's dad) have similarly pervy followings. The show is also quite friendly to LGBT subtext (not text, because it's a children's show) and is basically Doctor Who with fewer deaths (because it's a children's show). I love it because it's happy, because it hits a bunch of my kinks, because I adore Sarah Jane and Luke and Clyde and Maria and Rani and well, everyone, because I just love watching it, and because it's a wonderful, joyous show that's all about how awesome life on earth can be.

Everyone should be watching the Sarah Jane Adventures. If only for Mr. Smith and K9 bickering.

O HAI THAR OPPORTUNITY TO GET (SORTA) PAID FOR FANFICTION. Why, you are also an excuse to watch my brand-new season 1 DVDs of SJA over and over and over again and drool over Luke more than is healthy! You are looking just so bright and friendly, yes you are.

*happy Kat is happy*

Post one or more sentences from each of your WIP's because if you do you might be magically inspired to finish them.

( Hoo boy. )

( There turned out to be so many that I ended up splitting them into fanfiction and original fiction. )

11 and 17 may actually end up being the same story. I'm still percolating that one.

Also, if you can guess the fandom for the fanfics, I will... I don't know, do something nice for you. Maybe write you a drabble. Be careful: some of the obvious ones are less obvious than they look. :D

Anyway, which ones intrigue? Any of them look like I'm wasting my time?

In the Sarah Jane Adventures vein, eponymous_rose and I are forming the "Pervy Luke Fanciers" club. Want to join? Make me a Luke icon. :D
