A conversation with my characters.

From [livejournal.com profile] cedarlibrarian: Dr. Who fans: Put away those knitting needles or else.

I still have the entire first and second season of Dr. Who sitting here, waiting to be watched. But you have to have respect a fandom that knits its favorite characters.

I have Stargate Atlantis chevron socks (thank you, [livejournal.com profile] wyomingnot!) but a whole character? Not even needlepoint.

In the meantime, my Out Of Bounds characters and I need to have a little memorial day chat.

Now, John. I realize you just got the pressure taken off you. But that doesn't mean you just get to lay around. There's plot! You have a competition to win. Maybe several. There is much work to be done in between here and there.

Rodney. I recognize that you've just put a lot of effort into convincing John to quit that ball-busting job. I respect that. I also realize that you have students, and a busy schedule. But you can't let him fall flat on his face. Yes, yes, I realize he's exhausted himself and you want him to take a break. But you're going soft. You'd never have put up with this in January.

Sonja. Please, show up soon. I think these guys need your unique brand of self-absorbed cynicism.

*kicks characters' tails*

I can top that! When I was at PegCon3 the girls on our table for the meet'n'greet had a Regalice puddlejumper with a sponge centre-and a Regalice Stargate for someone's birthday!
Yes, I have eaten a puddle jumper!
But for the most adorable plushy!John and plushy!Rodney, go here (http://www.setsunakou.com/ufo/stargatesg1.html)
...the Daniel's not bad, either.
Sadly, I am totally c*** at knitting. Something about the tension eludes me and even blanket squares come out as wonky parallelograms. Heaven alone knows how a dalek would come out ...Jabba the Hutt anyone?

Oh, I love the John plushie. (Someone has to bring these to a signing, just to see if they're weirded out. *g*)

They've already seen My Little Pony versions of their character from a con last year. I imagine people get used to fandom in all its crazy glory quickly or flee to the relative safety of guest star work on Law & Order type shows.
