Doctor Who/Torchwood Fic: I Bring Life

[moowithme113]

So I had a long, frantic rant posted about Torchwood Children of Earth Day Four. But it's nearly 2 in the morning, and the rant was not helping me calm down. So instead I wrote fic. Denial!fic in which I make it all better. Seriously, this is just the only way I could get some sleep. This is one of the fastest things I have ever written. It is

If only it were so! I just finished Day 5 and am still is so much shock. How could they do that? How is this supposed to make Janto fans happy? What is wrong with RTD and John Frey (that's the other writer's name, right?)

I have the overwhelming feeling to go buy seasons one and two and just wallow in my denial for the rest of the day.

Brilliant fic, in case I haven't said that already.

It is so! What are you talking about? Clearly this is what Rose did.

I'm in the middle of Day 5 right now. I cannot see how this is going to get better. And based on reactions, I don't think it will. I'm waiting for the news that RTD was stoned to death at Comic Con or something.

I am doing just that! I refuse to believe it. I am rewriting it where the aliens take the news that the world will fight for the children, and they leave, and everyone rejoices. And I'd even settle for Lois going to work for Torchwood if that's what it takes. As long as Ianto's sister gets to go too. Because I really like her. Please don't let her die!

Thank you! I really just wrote it for me, but if other people want to adopt it as their personal canon, I am not one to say no.

And now I've finished it.

....

They can't continue the series after this. They can't. It's all over.

I'm officially filing Torchwood season 3 in with the Serenity movie under anti-canon. It did. not. happen.

In an article RTD said he wanted to continue it for another 6-10 years. How the hell is he going to do that when he's ruined the fandom? He makes Joss Wheadon's stunts look like nothing. My problem with the fifth episode is it was just hit after hit after hit. There was no breathing room and I almost couldn't finish it.

I already have a denial!fic in my head where the Doctor helps Jack fix everything. Because that's how it should go.

I am so not buying the season 3 DVD. I hope the fans mob RTD at Comic Con so he can see that he was the only one who enjoyed it.

[moowithme113]

He DOES?! I assumed he did that so that the series could end. What kind of show would it be? Gwen creates a nursery that also serves as Torchwood? We can't even use Janet the Weevil as a nanny because she got freakin blown up. I'm still holding on to hope that Myfanwy the Pterodactyl was away at the time and is now flying over Cardiff scaring the natives.

My problem with the fifth episode is it was just hit after hit after hitEXACTLY! There was just NOTHING good happening. Except for maybe that little bit of Bridget the Secretary having her little crowning moment of awesome. But even that was just not worth it

Yeah, according to whatever article it was, season four is ready to go. The whole point of this was to kick off Torchwood being moved to BBC 1.

I'm writing it as soon as I get back from running errands. I need to write it to cope with this. I feel ridiculous for being so distraught over this, like it happened to someone I know, and yet I feel totally justified.

I did see that there was a drop in viewing numbers between day 4 and 5, which makes me happy in the fact that the "powers that be" can see that not everyone is pleased.

I like that idea. Basically what it comes down to is the Doctor just needs to fix season 3. Right now I'm pretending that the last 10 minutes of day 4 and all of day 5 haven't happened. Because they haven't.

Also, I need that icon!

That is complete crap! Unless they do Torchwood: The Show With Brand New People That We Do Not Know (and Maybe Martha if we can get her)

Sometimes you have to write denial!fic in order to ease your mind.

There was? That is so good to hear. I can't imagine RTD thinking that this would be received well. He's got to be smarter than that. I'm hoping this is all a ploy to get everyone all riled up, and then if/when season 4 comes around he'll pull a spectacular save, revive everyone (include Owen and Tosh) and the world will go back to normal.

I am with you on that belief. Did not happen. Tosh's little timefreezer thing is in effect.

Take it! It's made by driftedfar
