Well, it fooled me! Thought it was a bit early, but took it at face value.

This is actually an exceptional fan work - more on how it was made.

fandom, droo

Rory! *flails* Have I mentioned that I'm glad he came back?

Rory is lovely. We've not had a male character like him in Doctor Who since Fitz Kreiner. Who is a book-only guy. So hardly anyone knows his awesomeness.

Yeah, I've not read any of the tie-ins so I've not met him. It's just nice to have a fairly down-to-earth and devoted male character. I suppose there was Mickey, but he was just played as an idiot most of the time.

(As for the fake bit, I really should have guessed - they had a photo on the One Show last week and all it showed was the Doctor, the Tardis and some snow. :P)

How to make Snow sinister. :D

I thought the date might have had something to do with it being an early release - 4 month count down. A teaser every month for the next three didn't seem too far-fetched.

Mickey was played as comic relief / comic book hero far too often. Rory can go that way too easily as well - hopefully the writers don't make that same mistake.

Not really, there were a whole load of camera men in the shot as well...

Hang on, it's 4 months until Christmas? Wagh, where did the year go? ;_;

... yeah that kinda does kill any sense of evil!snow. Although, I actually don't know the plot. I have no idea why I've grabbed hold of evil snow as the plot. If it isn't, I feel another fic coming on...

Yes. 4 months. I think we blinked.

I'll be at Metropolis this evening. For tomorrow with Outcast - what time do you finish work? Did you want to meet straight afterwards for food, or meet us at the cinema instead?

You've listened to Snow Pallet a few too many times? Or maybe that's just me. ;)

Damn. And already I have birthdays and Expos and all kinds of things eating my time up over the next few months.

I can probably finish for about 5.30 if I make an effort to get up early! (Or rather, get up early and not mess about on my laptop.) I think food might be a good idea, did you have anywhere in particular in mind? It takes me 10-15 mins tops to walk down to Leicester Square.

Snow Pallet is a new one on me!

Yus. The calendar is looking creepy-full. No hikkomori ways for me for a while, dammit.

No place in particular. I've just had a look at places near Leicester square where PLB can flash his 50% off card on a Friday night - how does French sound? or Tapas?

...You've totally not looked at those Granrodeo songs, have you? XD

How full is creepy full? I kind of want another Granrodeo afternoon (yes, them again) once my DVD turns up, I just need to figure out numbers. :3

Whichever one I pick is going to turn out to be the wrong choice! XD I kind of fancy the tapas, but it's newer and the French place has better reviews. I'm quite happy with either - do you have any strong preferences?

Not properly. ;_;. I could have listened to my ipod for an hour or so today, but I've been wanting the silence. Blessed silence... PLB is back at work on Tuesday. I'll have headspace then.

The Tapas is a chain, and we've eaten at other versions of it and found it fine! Also, it'll be better for timing, me thinks. So I'll go ahead and book a table for three. We're not expecting anyone else for Outcast, are we?

Oh... Is the holiday time starting to wear on you? :( (And guess that means this is a really bad time to inquire after that beta? >_<)

Ok, cool! :) Nope, shouldn't be anyone else unless you're bringing someone along, and Becky's going to meet me at the cinema for Aliens vs Ninja.

Not really - just today has felt like treadmill and I've not caught up yet.

Oh hell. I got half way through that the night before I left for IOW, and then got distracted by mod duties and trolls. I completely forgot to get back to it. ;_;. Uh, tonight when PLB goes to bed?

Okay. I'll book at table for 5.45. Then we'll know we'll be out in time.

I guess the busy weekend isn't going help? :( How spread out are your films?

Ah! *shakes fist at trolls* Don't worry - I've got something I promised I'd send to ldybastet tonight anyway that I will get done. I will! Barring natural disaster. So I won't be sitting somewhere rocking backwards and forwards. ;)

Sounds good! I'll see if I can get out of work a bit earlier, just to make certain I'm there in time. Meet outside the restaurant?
