aria: ([doctor who] gotcha)

I'd pay more attention to the tardis than to kate

My entire contribution to talking about the royal wedding is, a day late, a link to two photos of the Doctor at the wedding. I'm sure they're photoshopped, but they really charmed me.

And since I missed yesterday's, two meme questions today.

5. [What do you do] when you're not on the computer?

Since I'm interning at a literary agency and write a lot generally, even a lot of my offline time, as it were, is still spent on the computer. I read lots of books (outside, lately, now the weather's turned nice) and go on walks if it's not too humid. I go out with friends on the weekend, usually for drinks (I have not yet been coerced into dancing, even though some of my friends contra dance, because I have zero coordination); sometimes I stay in with friends and we marathon Doctor Who or decide it's spontaneous cosplay time or just snugglepile-for-hours time. My offline life is not staggeringly exciting, but it is quite nice.

6. What do you wish people who read your journal knew about you?

I ... don't really know how to answer this one, actually. I've very likely already covered the things I want people to know, either in my 'about' stickpost or in entries generally. So instead let's just throw out some random factoids that probably don't come up often.

I love fruit but dislike fruit-flavored candy. I am very much a cat person. If I had a superpower, I would want to be able to teleport. I often think it would be fun to have a pet dragon. I like werewolves better than vampires. Without making any particular effort, and sometimes accidentally when I'm tired, I imitate the writing styles of CS Lewis, Diana Wynne Jones, or Susan Cooper. I'm afraid of heights, which doesn't stop me hiking steep places but does stop me climbing trees. And when I played the "Which Doctor would you be suited to travel with?" game, I always had the sneaking suspicion that I'd drive Five up the wall and make Ten very uncomfortable, so I'd better just go with Seven -- I think I love Eleven so much because he's my new answer and we'd probably get on very well.
