MEME!

[foreverrhapsody]

Name a character and I'll tell you three (or more) facts about them from my own personal headcanon.

Current fandoms are: BSG, Doctor Who (though I haven't seen any of the new season), Torchwood, any of the comics listed in my tags, Gundam Wing, Star Wars, and anything else you remember me mentioning even just once here.

PLEASE DISTRACT ME FROM THE MASSIVE PILES OF HOMEWORK I HAVE TO DO. THE SOONER, THE BETTER.

Dear Flist,

I love you.

Much love, foreverrhapsody 

How are you all doing on this lovely Sunday night?

I LOVE YOU. No, seriously. I totally used that icon in hopes that someone would ask about Jake (and/or Mickey). ANYWAY, have a lot of text.

Jake and Mickey totally got together between Age of Steel and Army of Ghosts/Doomsday, once they both got over the whole Mickey/Ricky thing, and Mickey realized he wasn't exactly gay but he was gay-for-Jake. And they were pretty much BFFS and BFs and an awesome bickering two-man-team first working on their own and then later with Torchwood, at least until Rose came back. Then things were awkward for a bit, because Mickey and Rose were figuring out exactly where they stood with each other and Jake was impatient and got jealous easily, but finally things worked out and they became the Wonder Trio of Pete's World Torchwood. However, as we all know, people who work for Torchwood very long tend not to live long, and so Jake was killed doing something heroic. Probably in some of the battles or whatever that lead up to the events of the fourth season epic finale, which was why Mickey was like, "There's nothing for me there." (P.S. MICKEY AND MARTHA NEVER MARRIED. WTF WAS THAT?!)

Jake was the kid in high school (Ok, so the UK version of high school) who sat in the back of the classroom, goofed off, and never really listened to what the teacher said. He ended up dropping out at the earliest possible point, and somehow found his way to the mechanics where conveniently Ricky was working. They bonded, first off because Ricky was a prickly sort and Jake was the only one who could put up with him, second because they both disliked how Lumic was taking over, and last because they thought the other was hot. BUTTSEX andhijinx ensued. He was very tech smart, and usually played the part of the techie/backup in whatever team he, Mickey (Who lead the group), and eventually Rose played together.

Jake was kinda/sorta/maybe the AU!Pete's World!version of Rose. Can I add sort of again, because it's pretty much just swirling inside my head as a something I giggle about and vow to write fic on every once in a while.

UM OBI WAN COMES IN PART TWO BECAUSE IDK HOW MUCH ROOM I HAVE LEFT IN THIS COMMENT.

THEY TOTES RETCONNED MARTHA AND TOM ALL OF A SUDDEN TOO. WTF I DON'T GET IIIIIT.

I KNOOWWWWWWWW WTF. Even though we never saw Tom again, I LOVED HIM. I hated that RTD stuck Martha and Mickey together, even more then anything else he's done.

Where on Earth is your icon from? You use it all the time, but I still have no clue where it's from.

That episode was lazy and I deal with it by covering my ears and going LALALALALA very loudly. Like randomly putting Alonso with Jack there, you just know the wheels in his brain were going, 'well, they're both queer and all, so what the hell we'll give it a go'. LAZY.

Icon is Francesca (Ray V's sister) from Due South. She is adorably cute, and in this episode she was looking very very pink, and had this amazing hot pink mobile which I suspect may not have actually existed in the early-to-mid nineties. At least I never saw one anywhere else. GIANT OLD SCHOOL HOT PINK PHONE HOMG.

I... kind of liked the Alonso/Jack scene, but it was really really random and I suspect I really just like it because I like Alonso and was glad to see more of him.

AWWW. Due South is one of those shows I always mean to watch but haven't actually gotten down to doing so. I TTLY agree with your HOT PINK PHONE love, though. Pink is my favorite color.

I did like that scene actually because you can get away with random anyone when it comes to Jack, but.. on the whole, lazy. Trying to abruptly tie up all your loose character ends in 15 minutes, whether they really need it or not, is not going to end well and it was done pretty superficially IMO.

The world needs more pink. That icon was a tradeoff because some people's eyes might start bleeding if I coloured my LJ the way I like.

Oh and sorry for the random but you know that phone Amy had in the first episode with the hot pink/black panels? I have the same one. Totally went nutty squeeing after seeing that.
