My icon? Yeah, I think I'm sort of shipping them a little. Nothing spoily for the flist that hasn't seen tonight's eppy yet, but I've been picking up a vibe. Of course I'm guilty of the Strictly Professional UST vibe being one of my most. favorite. things. ever, especially when it's done right (Mmmmm Sapphire/Steel and Steed/Peel). They seem to be making teeny hints towards that sort of thing, but with lots more goofy, snark and pop-culty refs (the partners thing, Avengers homaging, Batman/Robin the amiguously gay duo, etc). They're sort of like Four/Romana with more nerdy name-dropping, but if the Doctor was less ADD and more Captain America. I'm surprisingly shipping several pairs in this goofy, pop-culty show, which surprises me a bit. Although not invested in any one of them in particular, I'm just rolling with that stuff and absorbing the massive nerdiness and writing/acting awesome. Mmmmm pop-culty, quirky MiB goodness.

I also wonder where all the fic is or is that a bit of a faux pas in Middlefandom I'm unaware of (I know Javier Grillo-Marxuach does have an LJ, perhaps he frowns upon the fic)?

I can get behind shipping everybody. I love shows that let you do that. The Dubbie and Noser scenes are some of my favorites.

The dialogue is a bit intimidating. Are there any communities for fic? Maybe it's the classic if you build it they will come scenario? I think as long as you actually pay attention to the dialogue then fic could be written.

Partner in a pretty dress + secret agents + tango? Dude. That's like classic partners with UST ritual that is.

Indeed.
