Vote For Your Favorite OTP! Or, rather, MY favorite.

Vote The Doctor and Rose!

They are under "T" at the bottom of this list...

...and they are doing quite well. But they should do even better, in my opinion. So, I urge you to vote. Give them some love and I will give you more fic. Okay, that's not fair, I will give you more fic either way.

Well, they didn't have my all time OTP on that list, but Doctor/Rose is a close second, so I had no trouble voting for them.

Tries to figure out from your icon who your OTP is. Fails. You must tell me.

And, if you look down the page, you will see that there is new Doctor/Rose fic for you. Many things will be explained in it.

Lol! :)

It's Lois & Clark (from the 1990s TV show (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lois_and_clark). I. Was. Obsessed. with that show, those characters, and the actors. Definitely my first and most treasured fandom). And yet I only have one icon from it; it's hard to find icons (that I like) for that show, since it ended before a lot of LJ users would have been into it or when LJ even was around, so the good icon makers never really work with that show.

you will see that there is new Doctor/Rose fic for you. Many things will be explained in it.

Sweet! I look forward to reading it.

Oh, neat! I did think it was Lois and Clark. I used to adore that show, too. But it has been so long that I couldn't be sure in the small icon shot if that was them.

And I know what you mean about older shows, because there are many I wish had vids and icons galore. Someone made a lovely Scarecrow and Mrs. King vid a year or so ago and it delighted me.

That was easy: there wasn't anyone else even in the ballpark for me. (Maybe they'd already'd been eliminated in the earlier round of polling, but still the current list was surprisingly non-compelling.)

As they didn't specify which Doctor, I could imagine that I was voting for Nine/Rose! (Is that fair? After all, that'd mean that Doctor/Rose OTP is getting double the amount of votes if you vote for Ten while I am voting for Nine under the same header. Hmmm.)

And other people can vote for Eleven. I have high hopes for Twelve as well. LOL.

Yes, we could get many votes from assorted shippers. The lovely thing is we keep Rose in the mix.

But.... wouldn't Eleven be all about River? I've pulled back from the current series, so you'll have to tell me if Rose has been invoked in canon. Specifically, would current (new Matt Smith) fans expect to see them onscreen as a OTP?

There are lots of Rose/Eleven fans coming around. She has appeared, at least once, to him. He asked the TARDIS for comfort and a projection of Rose appeared.

But, yes, I feel OTP quizzes would make it Eleven/River.

mostly voted for Buffy/Spike, but since you can vote for up to ten pairings...

Be consoled. I also voted for Buffy and Spike. Since, you know, we could vote for up to ten pairings.

We Doctor/Rose shippers appreciate your vote. :grin:

Little bit off topic, but just wanted to make you aware of that this year's DW-based CIN special is a "minisode" (gods, they just make up words now) "prequel" (clearly a trailer or teaser) to the Xmas episode and can be viewed here.

In Brief: Emo-Doc (again) is in Victorian-England-for-Christmas (again), with the very same aliens from previous seasons.

:yawn:

Yeah, that's compelling. That's exactly why I'm distanced. Just can't work up enough interest in ... suffering. Mine, at watching warmed-over costumes & stories, and theirs, courtesy of the Doctor. (Nu-who has been brought to us by fans of Jonathan Smith: "The pain, oh the pain!")

[identity profile] rabid1st.livejournal.com 2012-11-17 04:21 pm (UTC)(link)
Actually, I wish he would suffer a bit more, myself.

The reason I'm distancing is that I can't stand the Matt/Moff Doctor's woeful insincerity. He's too childishly fake to me. But, as you see from Idle & Blessed, I have an explanation for that. And I feel I will stick to my explanation until Moff snatches it from me at the 50th Anniversary.

I definitely get a Lost in Space vibe from New Who Two. That's the exact level of writing and acting they seem to be shooting for, in my opinion.

I voted for Doctor/Rose (along with Emma/Graham and Snow/Charming. I didn't vote for any of the other couples on the list).

[identity profile] rabid1st.livejournal.com 2012-11-22 03:59 am (UTC)(link)
And they didn't have House/Wilson. For shame!

But I'm happy that you voted for the Doctor and Rose. YAY! How are they doing? Still in the top ten? I can't get the list to load for me anymore. And I didn't even over vote or anything. I just can't get it to load at all, perhaps because I already voted.

[identity profile] soophelia.livejournal.com 2012-11-25 01:47 am (UTC)(link)
I was disappointed that they didn't have House/Wilson too.

Tony/Ziva are winning the poll by 33%.

Doctor/Rose is at 14% (#5 on the list, below Tony/Ziva, Castle/Beckett, Scully/Mulder and Elena/Damon)
