oddeggI love this place but it weird’s me out sometimes.
Last month, just after commenting on the slashability of the Petrelli brothers from Heroes, I saw two guys on the tube that looked quite like them. Not dead on but enough that because they were sitting next to each other you noticed it.
Today on my way to work on the tube, right after posting the Ryan/Connor fic last night, I saw their doppelgangers!
And yes, these guys were again sat right next to each other and a pre-disposition of the sub-conscious towards the archetype could mean even a slight resemblance would do, but really, this time the likeness was uncanny.
The Connor wasn’t quite as accurate – short hair and face a bit thinner, but the Ryan? My hand to god – Exact. Double.
Mouth, eyes, hair, jaw – everything the same. I think I freaked the guy out staring. The only reason I decided it wasn’t actually Mark Wakeling was because as far as I know he’s not got body-modification ear plugs in both ears.
Well, I have thought long and hard about these two occurrences and have decided there is only one rational explanation.
I am developing the psychic power to manifest my slash characters physically.
And I’m getting more accurate at it.
The next logical step hit me at once. I must now spend all my time chanting ‘Don and Charlie, Don and Charlie’ until those two turn up, whereupon I will lock them somewhere secure for closer study.
Because, of course, I could only ever use my new superhuman talent for good. ::smirk::
- and don’t worry, I’ll take pictures for you guys : )

Date: 2007-10-10 12:20 pm (UTC)well, I suppose it would be sensible to have someone else on hand to share feeding, cleaning, restraint checking duties. I have, after all, only 1 pair of hands.
(and they're fully occupied with doing something filthy to Don at the moment! Ha-ha! Mine is an evil laugh...)
no subject
Date: 2007-10-10 12:26 pm (UTC)Mind you, I'm really bad at sharing Don... *rethinks situation* I already have a very nasty custody case pending with a self-proclaimed Evil Overlady of Numb3rs fandom...
no subject
Date: 2007-10-10 12:48 pm (UTC)As far as the Don situation goes, I think we should get Edgerton or Coop on board. They can *persuade* Ms Evil to drop out of the case and we can then ally ourselves with some fandom who's reality has cloning technology.
Don's for everyone!

Date: 2007-10-10 01:01 pm (UTC)Ummm... milady, the Evil Overlord of Numb3rs fandom, has already thrown me in her dungeon at least twice now for terrorising Dr Rodney McKay into first inventing cloning, and then fitting the toaster out with asgard beaming technology so that I could make a run for it with Don while she was pre-occupied with Coop...
Took me ages to get out, and she banned me from going anywhere near McKay... the lillylivered chicked!
no subject
Date: 2007-10-10 01:24 pm (UTC)Just for that I shall borrow the motor of a certain Doctor acquaintance of mine and make multiple time jumps to collect as many Don's as I can.
OK, this will cause a time paradox and destroy the universe, but I don't play nice when thwarted.

Date: 2007-10-10 01:31 pm (UTC)We'll need a couple of Jack Harkness's, Captain Tom Ryan's, Billy Cooper's, Ian Edgerton's and ... okay, a Charlie or two... while you're out.
Pick them up for me? I'll pay you later.

Date: 2007-10-10 02:04 pm (UTC)Well, ok. But just for you, mind.
And no Remus or Sirius unless you're sure they're housetrained, because I'm not cleaning that up (and any suggestion of using it for a kink prompt is a squick too far for me)

Date: 2007-10-10 01:43 pm (UTC)Just offering some peaceful options....I've had my Max clone for over a year now, and he's shown no problems or major variations from the original. He really enjoys watching himself on tv, but so do I so that's not a problem. :)
Re: Before you collapse the time-space continuum...
Date: 2007-10-10 01:52 pm (UTC)But if it's a peaceful solution, the boys wont need to wear their tac-gear!
Surely you can see my point?

Re: Before you collapse the time-space continuum...
Date: 2007-10-10 01:53 pm (UTC)But I wanna collapse the time continuum!!!!! *Pout*
No-one lets me destroy the world any more... *grumble*

Re: Before you collapse the time-space continuum...
Date: 2007-10-10 02:09 pm (UTC)When I was young, we had to go out, find our own atoms, rub them together until they sparked, and then run like hell - all just to get a good nuclear winter!
And then I had no shoes to warm my feet until the world thawed again. But did I complain?! No! Mama-tyrant would have clipped me about the ear.
I've been considering zombies, lately, but they are remiss in cleaning up after themselves. Body parts everywhere.
selves... elves... hmmm..
Oy! While you're out! Fetch me back Haldir!

Date: 2007-10-10 03:19 pm (UTC)Kids today don't know they're born!!
And I'll still fight for my share of Don and Ryan, and if you put them both in tac vests I will NOT be answerable for my actions because I know that not a jury in the world would convict me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Re: Before you collapse the time-space continuum...
Date: 2007-10-10 03:24 pm (UTC)Sweetie, we don't need a jury! *evil cackle*
Re: Before you collapse the time-space continuum...
Date: 2007-10-10 04:56 pm (UTC)Luxery.
And maybe not a jury, but we do need badges? Could we have badges?

Date: 2007-10-10 07:12 pm (UTC)*points to icon* I have brought thinking Charlie along to the party, because he is very clever with the math, and will therefore help us figure out how build our own clone machine. Also, he has a friend called Larry, who is clever with the physics. We will have the ultimate cloning machine! MWHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
Also, just to refer back to the original topic for a sec, seeing doppelgangers of my favourite slashy boys is one of may favourite daydreams, but it's never actually happened to me *sulks* Maybe I should go hang out in the maths dept or palaeontology dept at the uni I work at...now there's a plan...
