More Torchwood fun

I love you, fandom. You are so entertaining that we might not even need a Series 3*. (BITE YOUR TONGUE.)

After a Dalek was discovered in a Hampshire pond and Torchwood dealt with it in their typically professional, effective and sexy manner, [livejournal.com profile] rm and [livejournal.com profile] kalichan decided to form a community to write about it (or you could create art. Haiku? Macros? Whatev).

Voila. [livejournal.com profile] dalekinthepond

From their instructions: This challenge/ficathon is for fics determining how and why the Dalek made it there.



*or maybe we need it as soon as possible because we're all losing our minds.

I just tried to explain to my 72-year-old Mom why it's so side-splittingly hilarious that someone on the internet created a community for people to write stories based in a television scifi show's universe to explain why a real-life tv show prop ended up in a pond in Hampshire.

*takes a breath*

It didn't work very well. ;)

Some things are best left unexplained.

Just sayin'.




(You didn't tell her that we spend hours reading/writing porn about television characters, did you?)

Oh hell, she already knows all about slash and fanfic, I've been talking to her about it for years. She was a bit confused by my Snarry phase, but with Torchwood, she just pats me on the head and lets me rave. The Moms is cool. *grins*

Really?

Heh. Yes, I'm in the closet barring friends on LJ, and co-workers with equally time-consuming internet hobbies.

Ayush: "LEVEL FUCKING SIX!"

Us: "STFU. Working over here."

Ayush: (abashed) "Oh, shit. sorry, you guys."

*Minutes pass*

Ayush: (muttering) "I fucking rule, though."
