ericadawn16This summer I was faced with a crisis. This summer should be known as the Debacle of Death!
Between May 1st through July 31, not one, not two but a total of NINE of my favorites characters died from impalement, drowning, spells, a knife and one awful snake from my fandoms of Spider-man, Lost, Pirates and Harry Potter. By the time I finished Harry Potter, I swore I’d never love again.
However, the Fandom Gods had other plans for me. I fell hard for the title character of a show I’d watched casually for over a year: Dr. Who.
It happened so gradually that I didn’t notice what had gone from a show that I could miss if my schedule didn’t work out or I forgot to a show that I now watch every single time that it’s on, both on SciFi and BBC America. I also love Torchwood which is the spin-off.
Now what makes Dr. Who and Captain Jack Harkness, star of Torchwood, so different from my previous favorite characters?
THEY CAN’T DIE!!!
Ever…
(Cackles manically.)
That’s my new plan; I should only fall in love with immortal characters who will never let me down.
Aren't they cute?

I told her how Cici had said that there would be a revelation that changes how we see two characters forever so she suggested that they were gay. I explained how "We already know Jack's bisexual. He's hit on the Doctor several times" so my mom asked, "Has the Doctor hit back?"
Sometimes what my mom says is priceless...
I'll probably end up watching them on Youtube after all.
Thank you for the pic
