and so, it begins

I can't beat IO9's headline for this story: The Folks Who Made The Robot 'Big Dog' Are Building a Real Cylon.

...Is it too early to say that I, for one, welcome our new Toaster overlords? ♥

Also, snagged from deborah_judge:

In honor of All Hallow's Eve, I'm inviting trick-or-treaters to my 'door'.

Comment "trick-or-treat" to this post and I'll give you a treat. Treats can be anything that strikes my fancy (pics of fave actors or pairings, one sentence fics, graphics, a few words why I'm glad to have you on my flist, etc. etc.). The more "houses" to visit the more fun it'll be, so go ahead, open your journal and help spread the fun!

Can't promise I'll be prompt (y'all know usually happens when I do, after all... and I am actually at work, alas), but I'll try to get everybody!

Well, as long as they don't start building Daleks....

Also? Trick or treat!

The Doctor had never thought much of Halloween - too much of an American import, too much possibility for real weird things to hide around the corners pretending to be normal kids in masks. It was fun, but also a little bit... something, somehow just not quite right.

But on the third visit to New New York - the with Martha, to make up for her getting kidnapped on her first visit, and with plans of going back and finally figuring out what was going on with the Face of Boe, he... well, the time rotor slipped and they ended up right smack on Halloween. Or, rather, Halloween week, because someone high up on New New York's list of glitterati had decided that the holiday would run a whole week, apparently, and the whole city was glittering orange, purple and pale green, with big plasticy pumpkins floating in the air. Sweets literally rained from the sky.

"It seems a bit much," Martha commented, even as the corners of her lips struggled against a smile. "Bit tawdry, y'know?"

"Nahhh." The Doctor reached out and snagged one of the pumpkins. It was, as he'd suspected, full of candy.

I have a big, silly grin on my face right now. That was the perfect cap to my Halloween. Thank you. :D
