Ooh, I might steal this meme.

Also, I think we've talked about this before, but I also took forever to figure out what "slash" meant, in fic. I think it was because i first encountered it in X-files stuff, and it was all this Mulder/Skinner stuff that started with them beating the crap out of each other, so I thought it was for violence. Ah, youthful naivete. :D

Also, yes, the Doctor is the most fun to write because he can do/be anything.

It is a great meme!

I think it was because i first encountered it in X-files stuff, and it was all this Mulder/Skinner stuff that started with them beating the crap out of each other, so I thought it was for violence. Ah, youthful naivete.

For me it was the warnings and the way it was all Mulder/Krycek so I assumed it had to be AWFUL VIOLENCE like cutting each other up hence the name. Maybe if people had written "Warnings: It's just gay sex"? Though there is that whole subgenre of slash where people have hatesex and sometimes I literally can't find any decent Doctor/Master where they don't do violence upon each other.

Also, yes, the Doctor is the most fun to write because he can do/be anything.

The downside is that sometimes in fic he seems OOC just because of different ideas about how far he can go in one direction or another. Like I find him a bit too romantic in a lot of D/D, but then I don't think of him as especially good at that stuff. (I was pretty surprised when he started flirting with River so openly in S6.)

I remember some nice Mulder/Scully (of course) and some good Scully/Skinner, and Mulder/Skinner and some decent gen fic too. I also remember reading a LOT of really bad and disturbing stuff though. :\

I bet the Doctor wrote Mulder/Krycek.

And Donna finds it and mocks him for his claims that Krycek has two hearts and is deep down good if only he could find the love of a good man.
