Tosh, That Thing's Glaring At Me Again.

reipan and hippyjolteon invited me to join them for a just-for-fun readthrough of A Midsummer Night's Dream in Finsbury Park. Actually, that's not entirely accurate: they invited me to watch a just-for-fun readthrough of A Midsummer Night's Dream in which they would be participating. This was, it transpired, a trap, and I ended up playing Philostrate.
It was fun, though! Everyone involved was brilliant, and the play was so enjoyable that I didn't really care about the 'in a park in the pouring rain' aspect of it. I met many delightful, intelligent, witty people, over whom, because I am me, I was later to knock half a pint of lager. To the actors of Bottom and Helena, should you somehow come across this entry: I am very, very sorry.
Assuming my hopeless clumsiness has not rendered me No Longer Welcome amongst the readthrough group, I'd love to go to another of their performances!
Unrelatedly,zeitheist has come up with the idea of Misha Collins/Jack Harkness, and it is such a beautiful concept that I felt compelled to share it with you. Misha would make such a good Torchwood agent! He worked in the White House; his wife wrote a book on threesomes; he is a lunatic. He winks inappropriately at people who ask him questions at conventions. You can't say Torchwood have never even approached him.
Hang on, have I ever assigned a Pokémon to Captain Jack Harkness? What a horrible oversight. I bet he'd have a Houndoom.
(What would the rest of the Torchwood team have?
...this is actually extremely difficult. Er, Gwen can have an Eevee. It eventually evolves into a Flareon. Tosh has a Porygon that lives in the Torchwood computer system and pops up on Owen's screen to give him disapproving looks if his e-mails to Tosh aren't polite enough. I have no idea about Owen or Ianto, though.)
