Writer's Block: GIP (Gratuitous Icon Post)

[dk323]

[Error: unknown template qotd]Since I don't really post in Doctor/Rose-related comms, I don't have as much of a chance to use this one as I'd like. It's from Series 1's "The Long Game" and though that isn't at the top of my list for favorite Series 1 episodes, I still adore this icon. To me, it's just a nice representation of Nine and Rose's relationship. Rose was always looking for adventure although more often than not getting into trouble because of it (most jeopardy-friendly as Nine said ;-)). But even so, the Doctor would always be at her back, making sure she made it out okay and got home safe (though fear of Jackie probably helped that along a bit! lol).

I like how her bright pink "space" outfit contrasts against the white and blue icy background not to mention the writing texture (and it's not easy to make texture like that work, but it definitely does in this icon). And the icon was made by angelfireeast so the credit goes to her for making this lovely icon. She's awesome. :) I've had it for a while. Even as I had to take out icons over the past year or so to make room for more, that Nine/Rose one has stayed there through all that. The icon just reminds me of why I really love Series 1 of Doctor Who.

You know: I don't think most people get to use their Nine/Rose icons nearly enough. I mostly see Ten/Rose or solo Rose icons floating around.

Me likey. :)

Isn't that a shame? :(
*looks at all the Nine/Rose icons she has* I have a major soft spot for Series 1, so that's why I focus on it more. I have some solo Rose icons too. :) Some Ten/Rose supporters just sort of ruin it for me so I don't use Ten/Rose icons that much (I only have one in my icon space anyway).

Me likey. :)
Thank you! Maybe this is just what I need to start using it more...:)

It's a terrific icon! I think Nine and Rose were fantastic together!

Also, I'm loving your Supernatural animations! LOL!

Thank you! I completely agree, of course. Looking at it makes me want to do a Series 1 marathon (good thing I have the DVD set :)).

Also, I'm loving your Supernatural animations! LOL!

Thanks. :) I just chose some funny moments for the LOLs. Nothing beats that wrestling on the bed moment. And I always like going back to moments in the Pilot episode. For a first episode, there were some awesome now pretty much classic moments. Mostly "brotherly love" ones like in the icon, lol!

Yeah for S1 Rose--so much fun in her, and that spunky jacket is awesome!

Thank you. I know - it's such a fun jacket! I miss the light, happy feeling of Series 1. Even though Jack was abandoned at the end of it (bad Doctor! :\), at least there was no companion loss (whether just by choice or otherwise) that has been the theme of all the finales after Series 1.
