Who rant

Have a major craving for Doctor Who fic. Unfortunately trying to find something I want to read is nigh on painful.

I will happily admit Ten was a good Doctor, but then they all were in different ways. He was one of the best though and I do feel he was done a disservice by RTD. Likewise Rose, not my favourite companion, but a good one (though I feel she matched Nine better than Ten) and done a disservice by RTD.

I do not subscribe to Ten/Rose OTP, which I imagine comes as a surprise to precisely no-one. I even have a whole set of theories/reasons behind that whole premise, which may turn into a fic at some point.

But OMFG get over it!!! Move on. Rose has as happy an ending as a companion gets, and doing substantially better than most. Don't get me wrong, I have nothing against the ship per se, but a lot of the shippers... I could be wrong, but it seems many of them are recent Who fans only and even then ignore Nine and often actively dislike Eleven (primarily as far as I can tell, because he replaced Ten) and just... Augh! Ten is not the only Doctor, whether he is the best Doctor is a matter of personal opinion. I could give a long list of arguments against Ten/Rose being twoo wuv foreva, but the sort of fans I'm talking about wouldn't listen anyway. Normally I'm happy for any ship to be successful, but I could do with them being a bit less rabid...

I feel I may have to write Doctor/Master or Doctor/TARDIS (can't help it, I have 2 OTPs here) to get over it. Or better yet the Moff can give us a multi-Doctor story and we can launch the good ship Ten/Eleven.

Finally, I would also like to apologise to any Ten/Rose shippers of the non-rabid variety - this is not aimed at you.
