Five Favourite Episodes Meme

By way of penknife and dbalthasar.

Name five favourite episodes of five favourite series.

( Cut for spoilers. Doctor Who, A-Team, Highlander, Alias Smith & Jones, Incredible Hulk )

Meta-ish prompts?

Story-wise, the muse isn't coming right now. Given current climate at home, I'm not particularly surprised, but it's somewhat frustrating :(

However, in lieu of fic, does anyone have any meta or thoughts they'd like to see from me? I've been hanging on the outskirts of some fandom discussions lately, so I'm in the mood, I think.

Anything relating to stories or fandom is fair game (though to warn you, I'm probably too insular to make community judgements, is the only thing). Anyone have something they want to see?

Meta Meme 1 - Tony Stark

Short Tony Stark meta for nihstel, who asked me the following question:

When Tony Stark looks at things, what does he see?

Okay. Firstly, I am not an authority on this. And second, I'm presuming you mean what he sees that makes him act the way he does, what he sees that makes him Tony Stark and not someone else. Because he sees the normal things, he does, a car is a car and a person is a person, he sees that part of them. Everyone does, to an extent. But what Tony sees that makes him different, that makes him Tony ...

( Short answer? He sees potential. )

Meta Meme 2 - Enemy Mine

Short ... random burble, really, for oneiriad, who asked the following:

You mentioned in your previous post, how enemy mine hits you right in the gut. Care to elaborate on that?

Enemy mine, for those that don't know, is the TV tropes name for situations in fiction where enemies are forced to work together for a common goal, usually survival, sometimes to defeat common enemies (it's also a fabulous science fiction book and film, look it up, I love it). And, um, this seriously gets me in the id-place, so possibly this will not be very coherent -_-;

( Essentially, enemy mine is about hope for me. A fantasy about the better elements of human nature. )
