Some vaguely fetishy headshots of K/im and H/arry from D/isco E/lysium. There's a short fic I've written about them that I want to post sometime soon as well...and probably more to come after that 🤡 Never thought I'd get to this point but here I am. So.

Ari wait no that's exactly it. "Extremely graphic hentai w beautiful graphic art" is EXACTLY the vibe your writing gives off and I've been trying to put my finger on it for months I'm not even joking. Bc like I come to u for amazing writing and anime takes. And also bc I have recced some awesome hentai comics. And like I've never been able to verbalize how those r related in my brain lol.

DFJKSFLKSDJ IM ACTUALLY SOOOO HONORED BY THIS... this is my dream.... i want to read like the most filthy hentai doujin with the most gorjus art ever like if ive achieved that through writing its like my final form.... we're so up guys.....

suffered through a rewatch of Power of Three and Dinosaurs on a Spaceship last night and I wanted to scream the entire time. I am nobody and have never run a 60-year-old television show. but. Chris Chibnall does not know how to write. he is bad at it. he is bad at it. who gave him control of the entirety of Doctor Who? why? he had Amy narrate the first and last scenes of Power of Three like she's in some kind of early-2000's romcom because he doesn't know how to write dialogue or how to show-not-tell. the last line of Power of Three sounds like a preteen who has no idea how to end her oneshot fanfic and I know this because I have been one and I would never have let 12-year-old me write a single episode of an actual show on tv. the Silurians are a crutch. the Doctor got sucked into a Wii game? Kate Lethbridge-Stewart has zero personality outside of the Brigadier. Brian is an empty, emotional-exposition robot. who let this man run the entire show for years, I want names and addresses-

I think perhaps. Some media properties should stay dead.

Could it POSSIBLY be the ONLY person liking EVERY p.a. post? A thought...

No that's my bestie who only started liking them after I was talking their ear off about my theories 🥰

[variousqueerthings]

this time when i do my m*ffat era rewatch will make notes of episodes I actually like because there are very good episodes in that era for sure! many of which I don't remember either, because I've only seen capaldi's run once, so that's more than due a rewatch!

thinking a criteria will be rated 0-10, with 10 being best score:

sexism rank objectification (female character is ogled/harassed/turned into a sex joke by the doctor and/or a lead we're supposed to root for and/or the camera)

sexism rank plot-point (lead female character is only there to serve plot, not to have her emotional interiority explored)

interesting complex or pointlessly complex (does the complexity serve the narrative or does it just serve to be confusing as a stand-in for smart)

(if tying into wider narrative) furthers character and/or lore and/or plot development (broader question that ties into the previous ones, at least two of these, ideally three should be fulfilled)

companion matters (the companion doesn't always have to be there, but if the companion is there, do they matter -- and overall per season how often is the companion the focus or POV of the story)

the doctor is more than just "godlike" (examines the doctor's flaws and limitations, doesn't solve a plot by having it revolve entirely around the doctor's existence)

doesn't look down on previous doctor who (by erasing or mocking its importance, by redoing and "bettering" previous beloved plotpoints or characters, etc.)

I'm curious to know what the Children of the Watch are called in Mando'a.....

Lots of people (understandably) assume they must be related to or synonymous with Death Watch because of the word "watch", but Kyr'tsad, the Mando'a name for DW, actually translates to something more like "death society"— kyr: end, tsad: alliance, group, etc.

It would make sense if COTW have a Mando'a title that includes the tsad root, as that's probably a pretty generic descriptor for any sect/group/faction, and not an indicator that they're related to any other group with a name sharing that common root.

Who knows why or how it came to be translated as "watch" in Basic.... that's a speculation topic for another post

I realize this is a reverse of the last doodle I did of these two but.. One day I'll write something to explain it all. Maybe. Hopefully.

[askamnesiamoonjumper]

still up for doing some mun asks! ^^

thegodcomplcx: #like is the plot more ambitious and fantasical than the previous period yeah#but CRUCIALLY i actually do not think this comes at the expense of character driven stories or character development and interiority#and people who claim its somehow emptier than rtd or that the characters become figureheads.....#did you understand amy's story??? did you understand clara????#whatever not everyone can be smart and right all the time i guess

I take that shit so personally when people say moffat's characterization was "empty" or "figureheads" or "just not relatable"

to you maybe. some of us are weird freaks. and we deserve to see ourselves in media too.

i do think that people have different relationships to each doctor depending on what series they began with (i.e. whatever doctor was “their” doctor) but it still boggles my mind that eleven era seems to be consistently the least loved; like how do you not find exceedingly desperate deeply angry struggling old man stuck in a new twenty six year old body dealing with some of the more terrifying ongoing storylines (between the cracks in time and the silence both really got to me) and grappling with his ongoing trauma and emotional issues with virtually everyone he’s able to get close to and thus puts in imminent danger deeply moving how do you NOT find eleven and series five and six compelling

i knew they were an asshole but sometimes they do smth and i'm like. oh. right. you really are an asshole.

friendship ended with ten now fourteen is my best friend

[badgirlcoven-official]

Having RSD in public spaces is the worst bc it's like I need permission to exist too noticeably. Even if everyone is super friendly if I'm even risking being boring or "too much" then I get so scared like oh god everyone's going to get so sick of me as if the worst crime I could ever commit is to be uninteresting
