this is entirely ria_oaks' fault

Jan 27, 2011 17:20

I was supposed to be doing word sprints today for my big bang fic. Instead I became mildly obsessed with this piece of art done by the amazing ria_oaks for the ds_c6d_bigbang reverse mini-bang. And then I wrote a 3200 word Doctor Who/Due South crossover fic.

It's an F/K rewrite of Rose (with Fraser as the Doctor and Ray as Rose), rated PG (for cussing and hand-holding), ( Read more... )

due south, fic, doctor who

*flails incoherently* DUDE. Thank you!! This is awesome! I love how you rejigged the pilot, keeping some parts and changing others. The rewrite of the classic "Nice you meet you Rose. Run for your life" line made me LOL because of how you added Fraser's 'ah' in (and of course he'd say 'lovely to meet you', heh). XD I pulled up a transcript of the ep to check a few things and I also loved how you had Ray insist on following Fraser/the Doctor up to the roof, whereas Rose just went home ( ... )

Haha, I'm so glad you liked it!! =) This thing took me over this afternoon. I just couldn't stop thinking about Ray standing in front of the TARDIS looking at Fraser like that.

I'm glad you liked the Mountie bit. It was either call him a Mountie and be done, or let him explain, "I first came to this galaxy on the trail of the killers of my whole planet..." and that seemed a little too flip for the sadness the Doctor carries around.

Glad you liked the vendor. Alien, Canadian, same diff... ;)

Of course his pockets are bigger on the inside! And I'd like to think Turtle goes with them.

Oooh, that's an awesome bunny. You should totally FEED THE BUNNY. Fraser would be so duty-bound to resume his Time Lord position, even though he misses being just a good man. And Ray, poor Ray! Would he be a companion already, suffering as he watches the Doctor pretend (or, alternately, gamely going along with the Doctor's "we're lovers" cover), or would he have met the Doctor as Fraser and be heart-broken to discover who he really is?

Heh, sorry to take over your afternoon. ;) But I'm glad that my drawing inspired that!

LOL at "I first came to this galaxy on the trail of the killers of my whole planet..." Yeah, it does seem a bit flip for the Doctor's pain, but it'd be pretty funny. ^^

Turtle has to go with him! And and Dief can keep each other company.

Heh, I wouldn't even know where to begin to write it... I'm not much of a writer usually, as I said. Sometimes I can write short-ish things that don't require much planning or plot, but this would be much more involved. And my thought was that Ray woulnd't know who Fraser is beforehand, though the other way could work too. Except, the way you desrcibe it makes it sound so sad. :( dS is my happy place!fandom and I don't know if I torture the boys that much. XD Well, as long as there's a happy ending... because at the end Ray could be all "I want an adventure!" and take off with Fraser, like in your fic. :)

It was awesome to spend an afternoon writing that. I'd never have thought of it, and I just fell in love with the idea after seeing your drawing. =)

Your Maple Syrup story was awesome - funny and sweet and very them. You should totally give the Who thing a try. I can tell you from first hand experience it's unbelievably fast to write when you already have an idea of the general structure and all your scenes and you just have to fill in character stuff. ;) dS is my happy fandom too, so I don't blame you for wanting to avoid the angst of Family of Blood. You could make it post-COTW and have Ray finds the watch in Fraser's cabin, and then Fraser could see just how big an adventure Ray really wants to have. *lures bunnies with nice yummy carrots*

Glad you liked it. It was such a fun, cracky, little thing to write.

Imaging Fraser as The Doctor is actually quite plausible as they both do share a lot in common and are out of this world. One literally, the other mentally.

And I loved how Ray decided to change his mind. Being with Fraser is nuts but it beats being alone.

I agree completely! Fraser and the Doctor are disturbingly similar. And don't even get me started on the whole Dief/K9 thing.

Ray and Fraser belong together, in any universe. =)

Thanks for reading and for commenting!

oh my. this is. *flails and babble incoherently*

Seriously, HOW DID I NOT SEE THIS BEFORE???

I love this so incredibly much I can't even talk about it! PERECT FUSION. Perfect. Perfect.

The dislike of guns! The wacky clothes! The techno-babble! The LICKING (which is omg canon for both shows too)! The jump off the building! The EVERYTHING.

This. this has made me sooooooo happy!

You, my dear, are a freaking GENIUS. That is all.

Awwwwwww, warm fuzzies! Thanks Miz!

You've never seen it because I wrote it before bb chats started and we became friends, I haven't put this one on AO3 because it was never beta'd, and I never ever post to ds_noticeboard or anything? I do like this one though, and I'd love to get it to AO3 if I can find time and a beta to work on it.

Haha, I thought the same stuff when I saw Ria_Oaks's picture. OMG, PERFECT! With the licking and the crazy and the awesome and the everything. And it was so much fun changing Rose into Ray - skateboards (or sleds) instead of gymnastics, not leaving when he's told to, etc. And the hand-holding was super fun. =)

I'm so glad I could make you happy!
