The Answer Is kadrin/George Carruthers.

I keep wanting to make a poll with questions like 'WHAT IS THE TRUE LIVEJOURNAL OTP? thebaconfat/squeemu, ladybella/tick_, jantalaimon/evil/draegonhawke, rionaleonhart/crack/dracothelizard, etc.' and 'WRITE A 250-CHARACTER REAL-PERSON FANFIC ABOUT SOMEONE ON YOUR FRIENDSLIST', but I fear that it would be far too creepy. Also, I don't want to give you frightening frightening people any excuse to send me into Silent Hill.

So, instead, I am going to wonder aloud why on Earth I haven't written a Top Gear/Silent Hill crossover involving Zombie Piers Morgan yet. I mean, honestly.

Actually, I have a question for you all. There are two 'fandom injokes' I know of in the Top Gear fandom: Zombie Piers Morgan, and the idea of Jonathan Ross writing terrible Top Gear fanfiction. These are recurring concepts in the fandom, despite the fact that they never appear in 'canon' (which is, of course, real life): Zombie Piers Morgan will pop up in fanfics and discussions; people will write hilariously dreadful fanfiction 'by' Jonathan Ross (in fact, he now has his own journal: wossy60).

Do any of your fandoms have injokes shared by the entire community? What are they? Do you know the origins?

I'd imagine that they might be more likely to develop in fairly smallish fandoms, but I could be wrong.

If you were going to do one, would it be serious or cracky? Because James's Silent Hill damn near broke me (in the good way).

(Awww Jeez :D)

Well, er, you never can tell with Silent Hill, but I am having quite a lot of trouble trying to imagine a non-silly fanfic involving Zombie Piers Morgan.

Well, that's a good point... I should dare you to write non-cracky Z!PM fic, but a) I'm not that evil, and b) I would love to see him crack Silent Hill up to all hell... so to speak ;)

non-cracky Z!PM fic

I saw the 'PM' before the 'Z' here and so ended up with the rather alarming idea of 'Zombie Prime Minister'.

Oh, dear.

WE ARE NOT HAVING ZOMBIE GORDON BROWN OR ZOMBIE HARRY SAXON!

Also, you could Zombie Piers Morgan be highly uncooperative with the town. "The town wants me to screech at you a lot, but I don't feel like it. Instead, I have composed a list of all the reasons you are a despicable human being. Clarkson, where are you going?"

ZOMBIE HARRY SAXON OMG

No but really
really
okay

The Master blatantly has to turn up as a zombie. COME ON HOW COOL WOULD THAT BE. Lol, all charred. What would the Doctor do? I must know!

ZOMBIE SAXON PLEASE.

Ahahaha.

...Actually, that explains a lot. Ever noticed the way Brown's mouth tends to drop open a lot? He's got some complicated invisible wire pulley system going on and some poor wee back bencher has to stand behind him at all times, yanking on the wire so his decayed jaw closes properly...

Thanks for that thought. I've now got this random idea that Gordon is actually a zombie hand-puppet being operated by Neil Kinnock. It explains everything (including that really slack grin)

[littlemoose.livejournal.com]

*howls* That's a fabulous mental image!

[m31andy.livejournal.com]

Just be very, very glad I suggested Neil Kinnock and not Arthur Scargill.

(Yeah, my brain went there first so yours doesn't have to!)
