lifeonmartha is...freaking me out, actually. I mean, I assume the creation of it was at least partially tongue-in-cheek, but the fact that there are icons and fanfic up about a character whose name--nothing else, just the name and who would be playing her--was just revealed yesterday is making me take a big step back and go, "Whoa."
I'm starting to think that DW fandom is even more batshit crazy than SG-1 fandom was/is. That's a really horrifying thought.
The existence of the community doesn't surprise me, but the fact that there's content besides discussion and speculation is throwing me for a loop.
I feel like at least some of the "rabid love" has to be people trying to stir the fan brouhaha for their own amusement, rather than actual love for the character.
