King of the Office
1) If you have not seen these adorable pictures of David Tennant and Freema Agyeman you really need to. If you have already seen them, maybe you want to look again (especially at the shot where he is totally staring down her dress). He looks disheveled and she looks gorgeous and they are both so expressive and interactive. It's really rekindling my Martha love and making me want to write sappy fluffy Martha/Ten. Also it makes me want to be Freema because she is so radiant and gorgeous. Basically squee.
2)And then just when I thought that nothing could make be feel more bubbly and happy than those pics: Joss is coming back to Television and it's with Eliza Dushku! There are obviously concerns about the fact that it is Fox (which as![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
sophia_helix pointed out it means it is sort of like watching someone you care about get back together with their crazy ex again). But they do seem reformed somewhat (like the whole not having canceled Bones thing) and they've committed to 7 episodes, not just a pilot. Mainly it is Joss Whedon making a show with Eliza Dushku and I cannot see any possible way that could not be for the win.
3) Also yesterday I went to a class on preparing Grant Proposal Budgets and Budget Justifications and for the first time I could see a part of my job as sort of like constructing an essay, what with the gathering evidence and such. It was so refreshing and made me actually want to do something for work.
4)Overall this is putting me in such a good mood that I am offering drabble/ficlets to everyone. Please put in requests while the cheerful outlook stays with me. Any canon I am familiar with, any pairing or genfic.

Fine, write me a story about Faith and her rocking out to music like in that one episode, because I forgot my iPod headphones and am very sad about this. Points for slayage with headphones, especially if Buffy is horrified, especially if Buffy's own musical taste is awful.

because I am shameless and can never pass up free fic

If you are still taking requests for ficlets, I would love a DW one, maybe something about Ten and Donna?
no subject
I still haven't seen the Christmas thing so I can't write that request but feel free to ask for another (I know I still owe you Ten/Rose fluff but I am having a Martha sort of day so it will have to wait)
Anyways so excited.

Um, hmmm...... How about fluff, about Martha finally calling the cellphone?
no subject
I could definitely write that.

Yay ^___^

Wouldn't it be great if people just paid you to watch Bones and Dr. Who, and right stories ^__^ Though I guess if you were paid to write them they might become a chore and then you might lose your inspiration

At the moment I am looking for income, and I have filled out a bunch of applications, and I am seriously hoping to hear back from one of them, but right now hearing back from any of them would be great.

Which is why I won't leave here even though I am fairly unhappy with it.

Anyway, what do you think of the premise? It sounds a little Aliasy and a lot Dark Angely.
no subject
It is a premise I wouldn't be into if it wasn't being done by Joss and Eliza but I think will work really well for them. It's a fucking brilliant idea for both getting Eliza out of the bad girl box and at the same time capitalizing on how hot and good at being badass she is. It will allow Joss to work with some of his favorite motifs (like gender issue, well meaning but evil big brother type organizations, emerging identity, etc.) and allow for some episodes to be really light and some to be really dark without seeming inconsistent.
I've still never really watched either of the shows you are referring to, but everyone seems to feel that it is similar to them. My first thought, of course was the Matrix, but more so Neuromancer, which is the founding novel of the cyberpunk genre and the Matrix borrowed heavily from. The main female character in it is sort of this badass assassin/bodyguard/whatever, but she got the money for all the surgery to upgrade her body so she could do this by being in a "meat house" which is totally what Dollhouse sounds like, they load you with whatever program, you service the customer, and then you wake up and don't remember it, and the same thing happened to her where she started remembering.
