Oh hell. >B

Ganked from katherine_b shamelessly.

Pick a paragraph (or any passage less than 500 words) from any fanfic I've written, and comment to this post with that selection. I will then give you a DVD commentary on that snippet: what I was thinking when I wrote it, why I wrote it in the first place, what's going on in the character's heads, why I ( Read more... )

;D Hee, I love that fic.

The one thing Dead Giveaway always reminds me of is my OCD need to think outside the box when it comes to prompts. Whenever I get a prompt I always let the most obvious thing come to mind, and then don't do that. I try shift perception and perspective about a bit so that the idea is an attempt, at least, at originality. This one was no different, the prompt was lipstick and I came back with, "Wilf!" xD

I do love the idea of Wilf knowing that the Doctor and Donna not only have a relationship but are trying to hide it. I mean, granddads know everything. The entire dad structure comes with knowing every naughty thing you're doing or planning on doing, except dads are strict about it and granddads just think its hilarious. Plus I kind of think he's thinking, "Ohmgod, my granddaughter's dating an alien! Wahay!"

My favorite part though is the imagery. Because I imagine the situation being "we're at Mum's, keep your hands to yourself" (especially if they're trying to hide it) that the Doctor and Donna get so sexually frustrated and impatient that every moment alone becomes hair-grabbing, clothes-pulling, stopping every five seconds snogging. Which is what I was implying in that last bit with the Doctor trying to fix his hair and his clothes. Because Donna totally didn't just throw him up against the wall and ravish him, or anything. ;B

Hee! :D That is totally the reason why I like this so much. We don't get to see *anything*, yet it's really kind of sexy because of what's implied. Very cleverly done, missy! Thanks for the commentary!
