OH MY GOD @ Tennant/Barrowman kiss. I bit my hand so I wouldn't scream at 12:20 a.m., and I definitely left teeth marks.
As for Archie, I had no idea what was going on, even when he tweeted, and I had to extrapolate what happened from people's comments and that Advocate article, &c., but overall I'm pretty apathetic about it. As someone said in the comments here, whether it was a gay or straight club, I'm sure it wouldn't have been his scene, and I certainly can't judge him for being uncomfortable. As I said on Twitter, the whole thing kind of makes me uncomfortable, tbh, and I'm staying away from it.
I think it's a little too real, y'know? I'm more sensitive about those kinds of things when it comes to RPF because these are real people, and when you remove yourself from being immersed in fandom, it's really weird that we slash them, which is why I'm a huge proponent of keeping the slash as far away from those involved as possible, and sometimes that means separating the person from the character in your mind.
Ugh, sorry, I'm totally rambling on your LJ. I just had my first coffee in almost two weeks, and...*hands.*
