Yup, Ace *rocks*. My favorite companion ever. (And her Doctor, the 7th, is still my favorite Doc...they're like two of my best friends. *g*)
It seems that Seven is one you either love or hate. Ace is just cool, though, from what I can tell. And insofar as I have a "my Doctor," my feet are firmly planted in the Ten camp. *g*
That is indeed celery. It was a thing. Eventually sort of explained. Sort of.
Uh-huh. Drink a lot of Bloody Marys, did he?
Can't comment on Merry!Six, but I'm amused.
They're not dead ringers for each other, but there's something in the basic facial structure and definitely in the hair that's quite similar. It's like how tarzanic and I wouldn't be mistaken for each other, but people do notice a similarity...only moreso. Merry, Doc.
I actually think the idea of children being woven on genetic looms is quite a cool one for a sci-fi universe, perhaps as a metaphor for artificial genetic selection. Not a fan of how it fits into the whole "the Doctor must be asexual!!111!!eleventy!!!" deal, though, as you say. After 900 years, I'd imagine the Doctor could give multisexual Jack a run for his money. *g*
Bottom line with Who-dom...and with any canon, really, I'd say...take the bits you enjoy, ignore everything else, and have fun with the ride!
Pretty much. I'm certainly not going to get bogged down in Old School canon, 'cause whoa. Ow.
Also, if a second opinion would help your temporal conundrum, I love that sort of thing, so I'd be happy to help. :?)
That? Would be fantastic. I'll definitely be e-mailing you within the next day. :)
