Random Plunnie of the Day:

What if Doctor Who was a member of the SCA?


"That's not how they did it back then!!"
"Oh, yeah? Where's your documentation?"
".... Okay, everyone into the box, we're going on a road trip."

*Just dies*

Last year at Estrella I had visuals of Methos and Duncan walking around having a very similiar discussion.

I can just picture the event listing in the Estrella Gatebook: "FIRST ANNUAL HIGHLANDER INVITATIONAL-- NO DECAPITATIONS ALLOWED, 3-DEATH MAXIMUM. NO CAMERAS ALLOWED AMONG AUDIENCE. PLEASE BRING YOUR OWN TOWELS FOR BLOOD CLEANUP AFTERWARDS. WINNER GETS ONE YEAR'S WORTH OF FREE BEER AT JOE'S BAR."

... You scare me sometimes, Ysabet. o_O

**halo**

The scary thing is, absolute SCADS of fighters would show up out of pure curiosity to participate. You KNOW they would. And when they saw the actual live steel being used, about two thirds would turn and leave; the remaining third would look at each other... and send friends back to their tents to bring them that nifty repro blade they had bought in the Merchant's Area the day before.

write a drabble?

...I'm trying to figure out if the free beer would be enough to draw Methos out, or whether he figures his never-ending tab already qualifies...

*snickers happily*

Love the idea.

I may just adopt that one, if you wouldn't mind?

Rain on the parade.
Chances are we would be burt at the stake before we really learnt anything.
They say the clothes maketh the man but I really think you'd still stand out like a sore thumb.

[identity profile] ickaimp.livejournal.com 2006-08-14 10:57 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, I don't think our clothing today would blend in the past nearly as well as we might hope. Too even, too regular and all that.
But still, is a fun mental pic. ^____^

I cringe in terror at the idea of what kind of outfit he'd come up with to wear... **4th Doctor fan here** Man, I love the old eps; haven't seen ANY of the new ones yet, but I'm gonna have to get around to dredging 'em up, I suspect. Didja ever see the one with the Loch Ness Monster? It's all you can do to keep from falling over laughing, screaming "SOCK PUPPET! SOCK PUPPET!"

[identity profile] ickaimp.livejournal.com 2006-08-14 11:02 pm (UTC)(link)
You must see the new ones! You'll love them! *bounces* And they do MONSTERS and ALIENS!!! Is WONDERFUL!!!

The quirk and whimsy of Ten is just...special...

And they keep the same fun cheese factor.

Drop me off in California about 1830, then pick me up in about two years later then stop off in the far, far, future for a life prolongation treatment. Then back to 1876 and become the silent backer of a young Nickolai Tesla and J.P. Morgan.

*Warning!* I plan on changing history so hold on to your socks.

No, really, because in the present you'll be able to use them to harness and store static electricity.

Then back to 1972, avoiding myself and getting to know squires William Gates, Monte Davidoff, Steve Jobs, Steve Wozniak and Ronald Wayne.

I figure get them laid and give them money and support for 2% of their net worth when they are 40 years old.

Oh, and I'll buy Wal-Mart Stock and sell it all for cash shortly after Ronald Reagan's 2nd term starts.

Do you See the damage a time-traveler could do?

... should we be afraid that you've got this all planned out? o_O

[identity profile] green-turquoise.livejournal.com 2006-08-15 04:50 am (UTC)(link)
I happen to live in the city where Bill Gates lived when he was a broke student. Like many other broke students he was often seen hanging around the Frontier resturant trying to collect enough change to get one of their cheap meals.
So, I'd like to make a trip to the store now and buy large amounts of spices like black pepper, cloves, and ginger. Then a brief stop in Europe around the late fourteen hundreds to sell the spices. I'll sell the coins and such to a modern collecter and then find Bill Gates a year or two before he becomes succesful and give him some help in return for a IOU to be cashed in after the year 2000. This won't amke very many changes to the timeline and a small percentage of Mr Gates net worth would set me up for life.

*grins* What's weird is I was amusing myself at work last week by trying to figure out what I would do if I had a time machine.

You REALLY wouldn't get on the Doctors good side doing that though.

The first Doctor met a time traveller doing that sort of thing (The Meddling Monk), and he went and marooned him in 1066 - In the middle of a viking invasion!
And all that poor guy wanted to do was shake King Harolds hand.

(Of course he was also going to give King Harold REALLY advanced weapons so that his army could defeat said Viking invasion, so that they wouldn't be quite so tired when William the Conqueror invaded at the other end of the country just 3 weeks later.
Meaning that Harold would then NOT die at the Battle of Hastings, and the Monk [A rogue timelord] could then meet him properly.)

AND I suppose there was also his plan to get fabulously rich by opening a bank account in Victorian times, depositing a penny, travelling 100 years into the future, and making an absolute killing on the interest.

.....xD Dr Who ♥ Tho I like the 4th and the 8th best. xD; *hasn't seen 9 and 10 yet and grew a dislike of Rose first for all the pink and then for the Mary Sue.*

[identity profile] ickaimp.livejournal.com 2006-08-14 11:07 pm (UTC)(link)
Rose... I kinda waver back and forth on. She does feel very Mary Sue-ish.
Still getting used to Nine, but absolutely adore Ten. XD
-we're getting a new companion for next season, see how she goes. ^^

*barges in*

She has Sue tendencies more in S2 than S1, if I recall fandom correctly. But I could be wrong. I personally liked Rose in S1 and in TCI, but I haven't seen much of S2 save for the finale (*tear*) and therefore my opinion is...limited. :D

*snort* That is an amusing mental image. Now I absolutely must order a remote-control Dalek (http://www.whona.com/mm5/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Store_Code=W&Product_Code=rcdalekevil&Category_Code=DWTE) to bring to an SCA event. Might have to wait for Christmas to justify ordering it though...

*Squeee!!!* That is a beautiful idea! *bounces*
But yeah... the price... ow.

[identity profile] avilina.livejournal.com 2006-08-15 03:48 am (UTC)(link)
Fandom ain't a cheap habit.

[identity profile] avilina.livejournal.com 2006-08-15 03:48 am (UTC)(link)
LMAO.

I wonder if "The Doctor said So" could qualify on documentation.

Although, why do I see him in a very period costume except for his breloved white trainers?
