Shipping PPP and various Doctor Who stuff

[misscam]

In a meeting of minds, longtimegone and I have come to the conclusion we ship PPP - Personal Preference Pairing. No thinking the ship is better or more Canon or what everyone else should ship. It's quite simply the pairings we like.

You're welcome to ship PPP with us.

Meanwhile, I'd really love some PPP icons of my favourite pairings, so is there a bribable member on my flist?

BBC announces the Christmas companion (so to speak). Er. Okay. I guess we'll see how that one goes.

Nearly done with A Saturday After Forever. Hurrah. I'm almost feeling fic productive again. My, my.

And we're having a ficathon over at time_and_chips - Anywhere but Cardiff. For now we want prompts, so join in even if you aren't a writer. Please? *kitty eyes* I'll definitely be writing for it, in any case.

In other corners of fandom, we have things like this. (Posted here.) Er. Can you guess how much Cam eyerolled? Yes, I'm sure you can.

How is life with you lot?

WORD. *clings to you*

I tried to do icons last night but Photoshop kept freezing. *kicks it* I have a holiday tomorrow and a house to clean, so I'm sure I'll try to procrastinate by attempting to bend PS to my will.

Or I might just stare at pictures of David Tennant and John Simm all day.

What?

I have Photoshop too, but I'm just not graphic minded, I think. Boo on me.

Oh yeah, it's the Fourth of July for you lot. I was all "why do they have a holiday?" until I remembered. I so slow.

You luster you.

PPP - good concept, lol acronym. Pipì means "pee" in kiddie talk in Italian. :P

Re: Christmas companion. WTF, Rusty? WTF?

The Anywhaer But Cardiff ficathon sounds interesting. I might post a suggestion for a prompt, I have weird ideas twirling in my head already. But that would mean infringing my "strictly lurking only" code of behaviour in comms. I'm not sure I want to set a precedent.

Everything's really shiny for me at the moment. I finished my exams twelve days earlier than originally planned. Woot!

Now I can go to beach and be lazy and read books without feeling guilty.

*sees horrid typo and headdesks to infinity*

[misscam.livejournal.com]

It's not my fault Italians have a mind in the gutter :P

Issue a prompt, silly woman. You can always lurk back later - and think of it this way, your prompt could end up being written by me. You never know :P

Good at life is grand. Here, it's all bladida and wet.

I have tea and chocolate.

Envy!

I'd thought pretty much everyone shipped PPP by default. Which means I must live in a nice peaceful little fantasy world of my own devising, I think I'll stay there.

pretty much everyone shipped PPP by default

Yup, as far as I can tell. Although I seem to be the only one who wants to see Jack, Ten, and Sarah Jane nekkid. Not a ship so much as a dinghy. Or possibly a canoe.

You'd think in a fandom with a canon like this, no?

I find the PPP thing v. freeing. I like what I like when I like and everyone else can just bite me. *bats eyelashes innocently*

[misscam.livejournal.com]

Oh, it's all about the OTP, dontcha know. It has to be true. And Canon. And bestest. And all that jazz.

[kunenk.livejournal.com]

Learn something new every day. And that sounds like an excellent plan. I think I'll do the same.

[nostalgia-lj.livejournal.com]

Doctor/Master is more canon than my other ships OH NOES

I support any move that allows me to ship everyone ever regardless of whether they've met. Because Martha/Toshiko appeals to my inner lesbian.

[longtimegone]

Mmmmm Martha/Tosh! I like!

I need more Master icons.

I'm just saying.

*joins the PPP bandwangon*

Now, it'd be awesome if Kylie was playing herself. Somehow, I doubt she will be.

P³: It's the way I ship.

Sadly, I couldn't access the deviantart site. Stupid work filters. So I'll have to wait and see what caused the eye-rolling. *SIGH*

And I've submitted prompts over at T&C. Hooray for summer ficathons!

I'm feeling much better today, thanks. And you?

[longtimegone]

Can I tell you that everytime I see your icon, I start to crack up? :D In a good way, of course!

[--kali--.livejournal.com]

*jumps also onto the PPP bandwagon*

Ths is what I like to see, sensible shipping.

[glinda-penguin.livejournal.com]

*looks up from writing Zoe/Martha*

PPP for the win! Sound and sensible policies for a moderate fandom!

Also large parts of fandom scares me... It saddens me that I daren't read anything on time and chips unless I know the author any more...sometimes a girl needs her 9/Rose fix...

*uses own most obscure ship icon defiantly*

[violetisblue.livejournal.com]

Dumb question: Who is the cute lady with the striped shirt in your (obscure ship) icon?

[spockette.livejournal.com]

I love the PPP idea. Most excellent.

Life here is fine, yes. Very, very wet (damn rain!), but fine. =)

[misscam.livejournal.com]

Rain here too. It's been a very poor summer so far. Bring me the sun and summer clothes, dammit!

heh

Hey, she's a quality actress, remember Neighbours?

Oh yeah...

Re: heh

I've worked hard on forgetting it ever since leaving Oz, thanks.

I 'ship 'just for fun' pairings. You know, the 'ships which never get written into Canon, but the 'ficwriter isn't going all rabid about it, works to make the story good, and is often enough just doing it for something fun to do.

Most of my 'on the side' 'fic falls under this heading.

[misscam.livejournal.com]

To each their own favourite, really. I don't tend to go for those as much, but as long as a fic is written so it works in that context, it's all good.

[canadian-kazz.livejournal.com]

Yay for PPP! OTP sounds so... down putting of other ships, doesn't it?

Ug. I'm not keeping my hopes up about that new 'companion.'

I submitted a prompt for that DW fic thingy. :)

And obviously everything Martha did in 'Last of the Time Lords' didn't count. I hate comparing things like that. THEY'RE BOTH JUST AS GOOD AS EACH OTHER!!!

[misscam.livejournal.com]

:) Thanks.

Fandom's not much for equality, I guess.

Life is going rather nicely here at the moment. As for the Beeb giving us a Kylie for Christmas, her acting credits (aside from Neighbours)include the voice of Florence in a recent adaptation of The Magic Roundabout, the Green Fairy in Moulin Rouge and Lieutenant Cammy in Street Fighter with Jean Claude van Damme and Raul Julia.

Her full resume is here: http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001541/

Run David! Run!

[misscam.livejournal.com]

Oh man, I forgot she was in Street Fighter.

[qwercus.livejournal.com]

what means 'pairing'?
any synonyms

[misscam.livejournal.com]

Couple.
