Fic rec: XMFC

"From Westminster With Love" by thehoyden | Charles/Erik | NATO intelligence says there’s an omega-class telepath who sleeps under Westminster. Major Erik Lehnsherr is about to find out the truth for himself. | ~16.000 words

“You’d better have something to tell me about Charles,” Erik growled into the phone.

“Oh, it’s Charles now, is it?” Janos said.

“Do you want to spend the next six months quartered in an igloo?” Erik snapped.

You could say this is a slight Xover with Sherlock because Mycroft appears here as "M", the one taking care of Charles. What a lovely story! :)

Woohoo!

Got my hands on Pitch Black and The Chronicles of Riddick for Kc 198 both! That's like $11 for two movies I really wanted to see - yes, yes, I haven't seen them yet, don't kick me! And the covers are so lovely, very comic book like:





I need to have a movie night soon. The DVDs I keep buying cheap are starting to multiply like bunnies right there, on my table! O.o

Doctor Who 510-513

I finished DW S5 today! Woohoo! I really like the episodes written by Steven Moffat, they are so twisty-turvy!

My favorite scene? )

Lovely, lovely stuff! That scene - and the Weeping Angels one, the one with Amy and the screen - must be my favorite of the whole show!

Though I think that DW is another show best viewed in big chunks, in a marathon, if possible. If I watched it week for week, I think I would be disappointed by the bad episodes. A 13 ep long shows just can't afford really bad episodes, IMHO.

For me personally, the best thing about the show is Matt Smith. He's such a wonderful actor and his Doctor is so... so sweet and brilliant yet a bit bumbling, so he's not really omnipotent. And he's so lovable! Excellent!
