rusty_armour | Here Come the Drums!

So obviously I've got a problem. It's been over a week now since I finally watched "The Sound of Drums" and "Last of the Time Lords" on DVD (Yes, I'm that far behind) and I'm still obsessing about Simm!Master. I tried to fight it, but I've been searching for Simm!Master fic, watching Simm!Master vids on YouTube, and even downloading Rogue Traders' "Voodoo Child" and Scissor Sisters' "I Can't Decide". Oh, and let's not talk about the computer wallpaper or the EVIL plot bunnies that have been constantly drumming up fic ideas in my head! Fortunately, I usually let ideas incubate in my brain for ages before I start a story, so I should be able to fight off the Simm!Master fic urge for a bit longer -- assuming I don't recover from this fixation before then. By some miracle, I was able to finish the rough draft of the eighth installment of In the Family Way despite John Simm. Now I just have to finish typing out the last three scenes and do some serious revision without succumbing to the need to hunt for more Simm!Master fic. With any luck, the current collection of stories on my hard drive will suffice. I figure that I'll run out of decent (or even half decent) Simm!Master fic pretty soon. Of course, this will probably just mean that I'll start reading Life on Mars stories to get my Simm fix -- even though I've never seen the series.

Hey, remember, Simm-Master slash is in-continuity, thanks to this line in Steven Moffat's mini-episode "Time Crash".

5th Doctor: Does he still have the rubbish beard?

10th: No, no beard this time ... well.... a wife."

Hey, you're right! Awesome! :-) BTW I always loved that exchange between the Fifth and Tenth Doctor. Too funny!

Isn't it agonisingly-great when a New Fandom Hits?

(I completely missed the Life on mars phenomenon, but I'm told it was good.

Yes, "agonisingly-great" is definitely the word for it! *g* I'm not sure how long the Simm!Master obsession will last, but I'll enjoy it while I can.

I've heard really great things about the show -- and this was before I knew John Simm was in it. If I ever get a chance to see it, I'll be sure to let you know what I think.

I love Life on Mars, but I just can't stand John Simm (don't ask me why) - I watched it for Philip Glenister instead. There should be heaps of LoM-slash around. I mean, Glenister's character Gene Hunt often referred to Sam Tyler (Simm) as "Dorothy" so...

I don't understand how anyone couldn't like John Simm. However, I can certainly understand why you like Philip Glenister. Thanks for the bit of trivia about Sam Tyler. If I come across the name "Dorothy" in a fic, it will be a little less confusing. *g*

I'm madly in love with Simm!Master, too, esp atm, because I'm planning to join a RPG as the Tenth Doctor which is all about the Doctor/Master ship, and the Master I'm playing with is just deliciously evil.

So, what I'm trying to say is, the obsession won't get better, lol.

And you should totally watch Life on Mars! It's one of the best shows I know.

t_eyla! Love the icon! :-) It's good to know that I'm not alone in my Simm!Master obsession. That RPG you're planning to join sounds really good. I hope it works out.

So, what I'm trying to say is, the obsession won't get better, lol.

Yes, I fear you could be right. *g*

I really want to! Unfortunately, I don't think it's been shown in Canada -- not on any of the cable channels I get anyway. It doesn't seem to have been released on DVD in North American format either. I'm hoping that it's just a matter of time before it is released because I have a feeling that I'd probably like the series enough to buy it.

Yes, yes, yes. Happy, I will be. Happy, you will make me.

Happy, happy, happy. Joy, joy, joy.

LOL! Yes, it's taken me long enough to finish it! *g* I hope you won't be disappointed by it. At the risk of sounding pretentious or presumptuous, I think you'll like it. :-)

I'm going to finish typing out the remaining scenes tonight and start the revision tomorrow night. As I'd like to go through the rough draft at least three or four times, I'm estimating that it will be posted by Friday night or Saturday morning at the latest.

Nothing wrong with enjoying some Dr Who. We don't have the new season down here yet either. Thanks ABC! Slackers.

However, it shouldn't get in the way of 'In the family way'. It's been ages since we had a new chapter.

I like Rogue Traders. Their album has a couple of good songs on it.

Your wish is my command! You can find the next installment here (http://rusty-armour.livejournal.com/26202.html)! *g*

I love "Voodoo Child," so I should see what other Rogue Traders songs I can download. If I like enough of them, it probably would be worth getting the album.
