I'm really in it now ... Two nights ago I dreamed I was scrolling Tumblr and someone had posted pictures that Anna and Michael had gotten married in a very small garden wedding (Anna was wearing a lovely white slip dress and has flowers in her hair, and Michael had a grey suit) and everyone was outraged because the Tennants weren't there.

Then last night I had a dream with David (young David... His hair was awful!!) as the doctor and having a big confrontation with the villain (I don't know how we got to this point) and anyway David's doctor said something to talk the villain down and I think it was James Marsters, and then the villian says, "I know! I was you" and everyone laughed because apparently the villain was the doctor from the future and the audience already knew that...

So anyway, even though I rarely have dreams about them (the last time I dreamed about David Tennant, it was pre Good Omens 2 and he was at a convention and I won a short exclusive limo ride with him and he was upset he wasn't my favorite doctor but very happy when I told him I loved his Scrooge McDuck) I guess they are on my mind right now... For absolutely no reason...

@theundertakeriscoming asked and so I shall answer!

The 52nd sentence in my current fic runs thus:

“It can be done but it can also be risky - only needs one person to spot it happening and call the police; next thing they’ve got a BOLO on the truck and you’re looking at a whole bunch of admin.”

First online fic… I think the first one that I actually published (AO3) is called The Captain & His Favourite Toy. It’s still not finished because I ran out of steam on it and also I had the ‘bright idea’ of writing a Character x Reader fic where it wasn’t revealed whether the reader was male or female. Fucking nightmare. Stupid idea. But I still love Captain John Hart.

My first fandom was Buffy the Vampire Slayer - mainly because of Spike (of course).

I do not remember my first email address but I do know that it was Hotmail.

Have I ever been to a Con? Oh, goodness SO MANY. Mostly UK but have also been to one in Amsterdam and fun fact - my first EVER con… I flew over to Louisville, KY for that. I’ve been to regular signing cons - including the hell that is London Film & Comic Con (I only do that one if they have someone I’m desperate to meet and that doesn’t happen often), right through to tiny little affairs in small villages. I’ve also done cons where the event is dedicated to one particular show - the most off the hook one of those I ever attended was Starfury’s Miracle Day 2 where the organiser had basically the entire main cast of Torchwood, plus James Marsters. I would try and explain the things that took place that weekend but I’d only fail to convey it properly and you probably wouldn’t believe me anyway. The most recent convention I attended was Monopoly Events ‘For The Love of Wrestling’ back in April - they had a lovely mix of guests there and already looking forward to their March 2024 event - they have pretty much said that they are trying to bring Takes over (they are the only UK event organiser to have ever brought him to the UK).

One trope I hate… probably good vs evil. Guaranteed to make me tune out.

Favourite season - Autumn, without a doubt. Cooler temperatures, pretty colours, the smell of fresh, damp soil and bonfire smoke in the air - I adore it!

7 August 2006 , by Junie[quote] Perhaps he does have a proclivity for younger women however I doubt that his obvious intelligence would allow him to voice any disdain of "older" women in public.[/quote] As intelligent as James is, he did indeed give an entire audience of middle-aged women a lecture on the male biological imperative. Not only saying that he found women over 30 unattractive, but that it is instinctive in ALL men to find women over 30 unattractive, and that they will always go after the younger woman. He did this at a private Q & A, at the Houston Vulkon in 2005. Personally, I think he was trying to justify his own behavior; since his divorce he has consistently dated women half or more than half his age. Patricia was 17 years old when they met, backstage at a GotR gig; I believe he was 41 at the time. Some guy named "Mike" posted above—I thought it was brilliant! You go Mike! 7 August 2006 , by Junie"Perhaps he does have a proclivity for younger women however I doubt that his obvious intelligence would allow him to voice any disdain of "older" women in public." As intelligent as James is, he did indeed make, somewhat, negative comments about older women in public. It was at a private Q & A, at the Houston Vulkon in 2005. In a room filled with about 100 middle-aged women, he proceeded to give us a lecture on the male biological imperative. Stating that not only he found women over 30 unattractie, but that ALL men found women over 30 unattractive, and would always be attracted to the younger women. James lost a number of fans that night. Personally, I believe he was trying to justify his own behavior as, since his divorce, he has consistently dated women who are half, or more then half his age. Patricia was 17 when they first hooked up; I believe he was 41 at the time. 13 August 2006 , by LJEThank you so much for the back-up JUNIE. I was at the same convention in Houston when I heard the comment and was fairly certain I didn’t misinterpret his meaning. And yes, he did lose fans from that careless comment. In fact the whole diatribe on biological propensities of "all men" was insulting to his gender and was rather bizarre.

Marsters has another connection in Europe as well: For about a year, he’s been dating a German college student whom he met while on tour with Ghost of the Robot. “I met her backstage and got her phone number, but then my jeans were cleaned out by the crew and they threw it out,” he says. “I’d given her my number, but she took down one digit wrong. It took her six months to call all of the different combinations.” The overseas relationship has been a challenge (“We’re in different time zones, so it’s hard to even connect on the phone regularly”), but, he says, “I hope she has the patience to stick it out just a little while longer so she can get to know me.”

TV Guide: Who is your girlfriend? Marsters: I can tell you that she's Patricia and she's studying design and fashion in Germany now. She's very, very wonderful. We've been together three and a half years. TV Guide: She's living in Germany — and you're not. How is long-distance romance? Marsters: That sucks, especially because, as I say, she's wonderful and so being away from her is very hard. And at the same time, I'm so busy that if I had a girlfriend who thought I would be there for her seven days a week, I'd have a very frustrated girlfriend right now.

‘Supermen’ Routh, Cain, Newbern, ‘Twilight’ Standouts Among Additions to FAN EXPO Portland Lineup

It will truly be a “Super” time for fans of the “Man of Steel” at FAN EXPO Portland, as stars of four iterations of the franchise joined the celebrity lineup at the pop culture extravaganza set for January 24-26 at the Oregon Convention Center. Brandon Routh (Superman Returns), Dean Cain (“Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman”), George Newbern (“Justice League”) and Bitsie Tulloch (“Superman & Lois”) are now part of the standout roster, along with “Twilight” standouts Rachelle Lefevre and Peter Facinelli and “Grimm” headliner David Giuntoli. The four join Tulloch’s fellow “Superman & Lois” star Tyler Hoechlin, previously announced, at the show.

Cain, who brought the Man of Steel back to TV screens in the hit series "Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman," has appeared in more than 200 movies and television series. He has had recurring roles on popular shows like “Supergirl,” “Las Vegas” and “Hope and Faith” and also produced and hosted the revival of "Ripley's Believe it or Not!" Cain has also been a regular on family and holiday TV films and faith-based productions.

Routh portrayed Superman and Clark in the 2006 “Superman Returns” movie and is also well-known for popular roles in “Arrow,” “DC’s Legends of Tomorrow,” “The Flash,” “Scott Pilgrim Takes Off” and many others. This year he starred opposite Mena Suvari in the feature sci-fi film "Ick.”

In addition to voicing Superman/Clark Kent in “Justice League,” “Justice League Unlimited,” “The Batman” and other DC properties, Newbern has had roles in popular films like “Father of the Bride,” “Adventures in Babysitting,” and “Saw VI” as well as popular TV series “Castle,” “Criminal Minds,” “NCIS,” and dozens of other dating back more than four decades.

Tulloch was already familiar to genre fans for appearances as “Lois Lane” in DC hits “Arrow,” “The Flash,” “Batwoman,” “Supergirl” and others, and for her work in “The Artist,” “Concussion” and “Grimm” before vaulting to prominence in the intrepid reporter role alongside Hoechlin in the current series.

Lefevre played “Victoria” in the original “Twilight” film and New Moon, among nearly 80 TV and film credits. She co-stars in the current Hallmark limited holiday series “Holidazed” and starred in the Fox TV series “Proven Innocent.”

Facinelli had already appeared in more than 30 TV shows and movies before his portrayal of “Dr. Carlisle Cullen” in several versions of “The Twilight” Saga”. He later had a six-season run as “Dr. Fitch Cooper” in “Nurse Jackie” and recurring roles in “Supergirl,” “American Odyssey” and “S.W.A.T.”

Most recently the star of “A Million Little Things,” a series which wrapped up a five-year run last year, Giuntoli was cast as the lead "Nick Burkhardt” across the six years of the NBC fantasy drama “Grimm.” He's also made guest appearances in popular series like "Without a Trace," "Cold Case," "Hot in Cleveland," "Private Practice" and many others, as well as an episode of “Superman & Lois” this year, opposite his wife Bitsie Tulloch.

They join a FAN EXPO Portland celebrity lineup headlined by “The Flash” guests Grant Gustin, Tom Cavanagh and Danielle Panabaker; eight “Supernatural” stars including Jared Padalecki, Alexander Calvert and Mark Sheppard; James Marsters (“Buffy the Vampire Slayer”); a strong set of voice acting talent from the worlds of animation and anime; and more.

FAN EXPO Portland features the biggest and best in pop culture: movies, TV, music, artists, writers, exhibitors, and cosplay, with three full days of themed programming to satisfy every fandom.

Adult, Youth and Child Single-Day Tickets, Three-Day Passes, Family passes, and Ultimate and VIP Packages for FAN EXPO Portland are available now at www.fanexpoportland.com. Advance pricing is available until January 9. More guest news will be released in the following weeks, including line-up reveals for additional headline celebrities, comic creator guests, voice actors and cosplayers.
