twelve spending 4.5 billion years punching through a 20ft thick wall of azbantium, a material apparently 400x harder than diamond, dying repeatedly in the process, all so he could get clara back... like whether you see them as platonic or romantic you cannot deny that he quite literally loved her to death

One day I’ll write the Rose and Clara parallels post, because they’re are truly so many. It’s wonderful symmetry.

But for now I suggest:

[warlenys]

thinking about macden cat in the wall metaphor but for twelveclara. the cat’s stuck in your wall but it wants to be there. we gotta put a second cat in there. they’ll become codependent then the first one will come out with the second. oh wait ok the second one’s not coming out. they’re both stuck now. they like it in the wall too much. they got too codependent. maybe we could get them out with a bird

[camellcat]

hey guys. whouffaldi. what the fuck

[tricksterik]

first post! yaaaaay

my main doctor who otps + live rose reaction. happy valentine's day to them only

[dr-lizortecho]

so who wants to write the Two Weeks Notice Whouffaldi au??? Where the Doctor just can’t function without her and like- they were unknowingly that married couple all along

[personinthepalace]

#there is so much SO MUCH in their body language here#the way they immediately fall back into their usual routine despite the very abnormal situation and the new tension/distance between them#the way this distance is clearly visible in how clara keeps her hands held close to her chest and the doctor's entire posture is kept rigid#the way that despite this distance between them they both still ever-so-slightly-almost-impreceptibly still lean towards each other#and that in that last gif the doctor still seems to be trying to reach out to her...his hand momentarily moving back...#it looks like he's intuitively reaching out for her hand...im not sure hes even aware that hes doing it#anyway i love these repressed bastards#nothing bad happened to them after this right?#they found the tardis and continued traveling together same old same old thats how i remember that episode ending via @bluerthanthetardis

20 Questions for Fic Writers

Tagged by: @just-here-with-my-thoughts (I feel so honored, thank you! And I really am dying to read Welcome to the Outpost.)

These answers will probably involve a range of fandoms.

1. How many works do you have on AO3?

647.

2. What’s your total AO3 word count?

1,850,510

3. What fandoms do you write for?

Primarily The Bad Batch now, maybe Clone Wars here and there. My fandom writing migrates. Used to be Doctor Who, then Supernatural, then The Clone Wars, and Rebels.

4. What are your top 5 fics by kudos?

Apparently my top 5 are fics I don’t even care about anymore. *sigh* Not providing links because of how meh I am about these.

1. Morningstar (Chilling Adventures of Sabrina),

2. Take Me Home (I actually didn’t realize this was in my top 5), it’s a Supernatural fic),

3. Take Me to Church (Supernatural),

4. Deal (I believe this is an Avatar: The Last Airbender crack fic based off of incorrect quotes), and

5. Ineffable (Good Omens).

5. Do you respond to comments?

Most definitely!

6. What is the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending?

Definitely either Bleeding Reality, or In the Dark.

7. What’s the fic you wrote with the happiest ending?

Definitely May I Have This Dance? Oh, how I adore that fic. I wrote it based on art I love so much, and the artist even let me put their art in the fic!!

8. Do you get hate on fics?

Used to years ago, so now I still feel dread in the pit of my stomach when I get an AO3 comment email. The dread thankfully doesn’t show up all the time now.

9. Do you write smut? If so, what kind?

Oh, hell yeah, I do! Not sure about what kind. It’s just, I don’t know, smut.

10. Do you write crossovers? What’s the craziest one you’ve written?

I do not.

11. Which fic are you proud of but wish had gotten a bigger response from your readers?

Maybe The World Goes Cold? But I am maybe releasing chapters too slowly, so I guess it makes sense the response isn’t as big.

12. Have you ever had a fic translated?

I think I’ve had a couple translated into Russian.

13. Have you ever co-written a fic before?

I tried to do so with my brother a couple of times, but we never finished them. I don’t think either of us really understand how the co-writing process works.

14. What’s your all-time favorite ship?

Tbh, I always feel the most when I think about or see anything involving Whoufflé/Whouffaldi from Doctor Who. They were my OTP from 2013 to 2016. Might still be the case!

15. What’s a WIP you want to finish but doubt you ever will?

You know, I had ones I did want to finish, but now, I’m not even sure I want to.

Still, I guess Blackout, and Three Birds, One Stone held a lot of my attention for a few years. But with the fic content now being triggering for me, and with a brain injury, I feel as if I may have moved on.

16. What are your writing strengths?

I have been told my descriptions are incredibly visceral, and I might agree. I’ve been on the edge of my seat or emotional more than a few times during my editing process. I also like to consider the fact that I’m writing at all a strength given I have a brain injury that gives me memory problems and aphasia.

17. What are your writing weaknesses?

Well, I’d say say the memory problems and aphasia cause some weaknesses. I have caught a couple weirdly-worded errors and it’s slightly embarrassing. Does Omega shredding my outline multiple times count as a weakness? lol I suppose another weakess is spelling and forgetting words and struggling to find the right words. I often have to look things up. But as far as things like description, dialogue… I’m not sure I struggle there.

18. Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language?

I’d take a crack at French! I used to be able to read and write in French very easily.

19. First fandom you wrote for?

The Lord of the Rings. I was 8.

20. Favorite fic you’ve written?

Probably Brother, Hold Me Up, and it’s still going!

ough. face the raven. oughhhhhhhhhh.

Twelve saying "stay with me" makes me want to sob for a million years

My second favourite doctor saying "run" to my second favourite companion in their very first moment together and my first favourite doctor saying "don't run" to my first favourite companion in their very last moment together, oh life certainly does feel poetic right now

(I am sobbing)

[randomthunk]

As I sit munching my toast and drinking coffee, looking at my morning rounds of Tumblr tags, I have a moment of peace where I'm so glad Whouffaldi's heyday was 10 years ago, so that I didn't have to deal with some teeny bopper on TikTok trying to lecture me, a grown ass woman, about why my ship is """""toxic""""" and Bad, Actually.

[just-antithings]

In regards to this ask, some of my experiences are:

I stopped interacting with people in the 9-1-1 fandom because quite a few people were sending hate and death threats, suicide-baiting, and being kind of ableist about/to people who don't ship the main pairing (buck/eddie, also known as buddie). I do kind of ship them, I'm not against them as a pairing and it makes sense, but I don't mind their relationship being platonic either and I felt that sharing my opinion would garner hate and kill my love for the fandom. Not everyone is like it and the writers who write 'x reader' stuff are usually cool, but within the main fandom, it was honestly sick.

I recieved hate for writing fics for whouffaldi (aka twelve/clara) when they were a new ship. This was a long time ago, and when I write them now, I see nothing but positivity, but it was so bad in the beginning that just thinking about the pairing made me incredibly anxious. They'd write comments on my other fics, finding 'proof' that I was a completely sick person, and now I only write for the pairing on anon.

I recieved hate for writing disabled OCs in two different fandoms (Harry Potter and Twilight) - the fandoms weren't overly accepting of OCs as it was, but the hate was specifically ableist in nature. Now, ignoring my terrible taste in men, they were along the lines of 'Edward would never touch a disabled person like that, he's got better taste than that' and I even got 'non-disabled people shouldn't write disabled characters', and when I confessed to being disabled it changed to literal slurs and personal attacks like 'cripples can only dream of being with someone like Harry Potter'. And technically, yes because he doesn't exist, but we all know it wasn't meant like that.
