Okay, so Captain Jack is obviously the personification of the lust motivation, let's see everybody get it on; and the Doctor I'd put as the exploration ficcer, wanting to play with strange new life and new civilizations - but does the Master represent delight in torturing the objects of one's obsession, or the desire to rip apart the system and rebuild it to one's own ideal specs?
The Doctor represents the Crossover motivation, wanting to put all of you favorite people in one story. And Jack represents the Crack motivation, wanting to have fun with a setting by wrecking havoc on it. Something like that? Ditto what xparrot said about The Master.
Doctor: tinkering w/ canon and making it better (for var. def. of better) Master: canon is mere raw material for my own (intricate and frequently disturbing) constructs Captain: nakama and boykissing
But really the fun of these exercises is seeing what other ppl come up with. XD Delight in torturing objects of obsession certainly works...
I lost my nominating ballot for last year, so I kind of know how you feel. If you do need some sort of list of novels to nominate, I can always forward you mine (I was going to go to Melbourne for Worldcon this year, but, you know. *kicks vehicle*)
Inorite my friends were like "blahblahblah campus tour" and I was like wait what? can I go in there? well can I at least stand outside and touch it and stare at it for a while?
