Title: Highly Illogical
Fandom: Torchwood

Disclaimer: Torchwood isn't mine. Neither is Star Trek. Sigh.
Spoilers: None that I can think of, although in my mind it is set in early s2.
Summary: Ianto took Jack to see Star Trek 2009. He's beginning to wish he hadn't.

*giggles* no, see, the reason there's no good character for Gwen is that there's no such thing as an annoying Gwen-character on Trek...

[etmuse]

There really isn't.

An evil part of me almost had Ianto suggest she was a redshirt...

[gingerlr]

Hey! Gwen is no redshirt! I was classified as a redshirt in that last lj thingie going around and I don't want to be in the same class as Gwen.

She could be the ship's counselor that nobody wants to go talk to. *grins*

[etmuse]

Yeah, I was a redshirt too...

She's indefinable, as far as actually giving her a 'recognisable' character...

I think if we chose a canon-esque character for Gwen from the new movie (and I'm proud to say I got to see it for the first time just this week!) I'd have Gwen as that Operations/Security friend of Uhura's that was not only in the bar in Iowa, but on the Enterprise. Y'know, "Cupcake"? Even with the mustache. >:)

Or, she could be Pike's #1 (played brilliantly by the dearly departed Majel Barrett-Roddenberry in "The Cage")... y'know cool under fire, but dies horribly to allow others advancement.

No! I should stop the Gwen bashing. I should.

Good story! Thank you for sharing it.

[etmuse]

I saw the new movie twice. Within 3 days...

I wracked my brain for a suitable 'Gwen' but... yeah, just couldn't really come up with a good one.

[twinsarein]

Sorry if I'm butting in: I could go one of two ways with Gwen - as someone who comes between the main pairing, she might be good as Uhura

OR

as someone who disturbs the natural order just by showing up and often creates disaster, then she might be good as Nero.

[estarcollector]

Nero! Puh-leeze don't insult Uhura that way. :)

[hab318princess]

loved that! *giggles*

[etmuse]

Thanks :)

***grins and laughs***

Oh, I was just WAITING for someone to draw those parallels!!!

But Chekov was too sweet to be compared to Gwen! OH, I KNOW! Gwen can be the myterious-never-before-seen-officer-in-red-who-always-dies-on-missions character!!

argh, fabulous =] Ianto is blatantly Spock...

[etmuse]

When I started thinking about it, various parallels started jumping out at me...

I rather giggled while writing it at making Ianto a K/S slash fan...

[butterflycell]

oh how I laughed when I discovered one of the fandom's names is 'Kock'

along with Josh/Sam from West Wing, I've been thinking of "Servings of Kock with some Jam on the side" for the last couple of days =P

[seether_79]

Lol, brilliant!
