amberfocusWell, both A Sky Without Zeppelins and the next chapter of You're What? are rolling along quite nicely. The first is a little over 1700 words in and the second 1400, so both are about half done. I'm trying to think up something for a sequel to Body Paint, but all I'm getting is grumpy, uncooperative Nine grousing at Rose. Tried to come up with some smutty fluff for ladychi who isn't feeling well and all I've managed is a couple hundred words of hurt/comfort that is far more hurt than comfort and I don't think that will make anyone feel better. *shrugs* I'll likely just save it and insert it into a "the Doctor is being a jerk" chapter of something else.
On a bright note, I ordered my Christmas presents. I am such a child. I am getting the 5 inch characters from Doctor Who. Nine, Rose, K-9, Donna and Ten in his ghost hunting gear from Army of Ghosts because I wanted him in the brown coat and not the space suit. I also got the Talking TARDIS money bank, the one with Rose and Nine on the inside, not the one with Ten and Martha. I think I will be getting the TARDIS playset for my birthday in February. What I did not get was the sonic screwdriver. I read too many reviews on it that it broke too easily. *pouts* Not spending $40 for a glorified flashlight/pen if it's gonna break.
Was there ever a season one Rose produced or is the only option of her in that top from New Earth? Does anyone know if a season four Rose is going to be issued?
I also ordered the remaining Ten/Rose books that I don't yet own and 4 of the Eighth Doctor books I could find. I need to get a handle on Eight better than what is represented in the TV movie of him for my eventual Better with You fic that will include him. Besides the movie all I've to go on is fanfic, namely whochick's stuff, Emery Board's stuff, and the bit of him from Rallalon's Non-Linear Love Story. But since I want to be sure he's as accurate as possible, books. I'll get some more for my birthday, I think. That part of the Better with You series is ages away, though. First I gotta finish Hunger Moon and several more in between.
On a very bright note, I've started plotting out the last seven chapters of Of the Vortex Born. It's slow going but I think it may actually see an end now. If I get time to write it. DH was so lovely in helping me brainstorm it.

I would've liked a s1 Rose to go with Nine, though he's not complaining about New Earth Rose, I have to say. ;) (And I have them dancing right in front of my keyboard. No, seriously, actual dancing. ;) Anything less literal would scandalize mini-Jack Sparrow and mini-Davy Jones, after all... ;) ) Ten is still waiting for his Donna. Awwww, hang in there, Ten! ;) I haven't heard about a s4 Rose one way or the other just yet.
I think that's great that you've got a bunch of DW things for Christmas! And ooo, I'm already envying you that playset! ;) \o/ ♥!

And I know what you mean, I desperately wanted s1 Rose but I never could find her reasonably priced on eBay when it came to adding overseas shipping costs. :( But, like I said, I'm happy with New Earth Rose and Nine has absolutely no complaints! ;)
*hugs!* ♥!
