Thanks to helpful links from [livejournal.com profile] sol_se, I've watched the first episode of the new Torchwood series. Non-spoilery first thoughts: it's not bad. Given how anxious fans have been about the Americanization, it seemed to me to work pretty well on a character level. The plot was full of tripe, but that's nothing new. At least the tripe was put in service of making the characters, by and large, in character. I like the new CIA guy, really don't like the ingenue CIA girl, who is a dolt and for whose presence in the CIA I cannot suspend my disbelief. Don't know why the doctor (to judge from her clothes) seems always to have been called in for some emergency whilst in the middle of a cocktail party. Gwen and Rhys are in good form. Jack actually doesn't get to do much, hopefully more later...?

My favorite bit may well have been the CIA guy's consternation over having to pay a toll to cross the bridge into Wales.

11 – Genre – do you prefer certain genres of fic when you're writing? What kind do you tend to write most?

I write character study, drama, angst-type things. I sometimes write what I think of as crack, though my approach to it is to take what seems a crack idea (ex. Naoe/Haruie) and write it convincingly enough that hopefully it ultimately comes off as serious drama. A fair amount of my fic has h/c elements (well, probably most of it does).

Rest of the Questions )
