I ship Doctor/Martha.

Oh my god.

It was that last two-parter that did it; she's so capable, so awesome, so in love and so bound for disappointment (again and again). Her feelings don't make her useless. I wish I could make a thoughtful review, but I don't feel like it and I just really loved it. And Martha's situation just *got* me.

I ship them in the way I shipped Mulder and Scully--I yearn for it but I don't want them together in canon, because that would probably ruin it. I'm content with fannish satisfaction of these urges. But I'm sure I never thought I'd care even that much.

You mean the only ship you care about on the wide ocean of pop culture is H/M? Wow. You are restrained.

I know what you mean about being told what to believe; perhaps it is that I relate to Martha more than Rose, so I feel less imposed-upon. It would be nice to allow the characters to have layers that were not unwrapped and spread out for us, however.

And jump in anytime, anyplace. Welcome!

i do enjoy a few others, but actually care about? not so much. meanwhile, holmes/moriarty is ridiculous so i don't care if other people even know it exists.

dear production staff: please to not be thrusting russell t. davies' completely acceptable and understandable crush onto every other character in the show. many thanks. the prof_

Kind of like me and my Captain Kirk/William Shatner obsession.

Yes. This is a modern-day "Wimsey's golden hair" situation, without the class.
