As was to be expected, the recent Doctor Who episode has already inspired fanfic. Two lovely episode tags, celebrating that most Whovian of 'ships the episode deals with:

Wonderfully and fearfully made

The conjugal bed

And a meta love declaration for that same ship: Bigger on the inside.

Neil Gaiman blogged about writing the episode: Read more... )

Thanks for sharing those wonderful links.

I was inspired to write a "prequel" for the episode:

Aw, that's a delightful imagining of the original mutual "theft". :)

Yep, Moffat edits. He's mentioned his love of the rainbow candy Dalek idea.

Ooh, I'll be reading that blog entry. Neil's blog is fun.

Neil Gaiman strikes me as an all-round nice bloke as well as a genius. I'm rather proud he's British, even if he does live in the US.

He returns often enough to British shores to strike one as not completely an ex pat. :) (Also, isn't it a fine British tradition to claim your own emigrés to the US like Isherwood while also claiming the Americans who moved to Britain like T.S. Eliot? We do the same thing! Laying claim to Ernst Lubitsch, Marlene Dietrich, Billy Wilder et al, I mean.)

I loved the story and being a fan of your AtS stories ages ago was delighted when you started with the Whoverse!

:) I have a lot of those. Connor and Darla were my favourite AtS characters, and I wrote the Connor essay at idol_reflection.
