marcus aurelius, roman emperor. last one of the five good and stoic philosopher. the only pin-up i ever had on my wall when i was fifteen. the only one i ever had. i am not sure who you think you’re talking to right now, madame vastra, but i have never had the slightest interest in pretty young men. and for the record if there was anybody who could flirt with a mountain range she’s probably standing in front of you right now! just because my pretty face has turned your head do not assume i am so easily distracted.

#YES7ERDAYS, an independent, mutuals-only portrayal of 𝘊𝘓𝘈𝘙𝘈 𝘖𝘚𝘞𝘈𝘓𝘋 from bbc’s doctor who (2005) , as lovingly told by odette (27, she/her, timezones are fake). A CHAPTER IN : fear as a superweapon, loyalty to an eldritch horror, becoming the horror yourself, rebirth && destruction, the deconstruction of the manic pixie girl, the driving force of the universe being love, and how selfishness and selflessness are two sides of the same coin. headcanon based with show influences, anti-moffat && anti-gatiss, with a heavy-focus on aus and original universes, a sad tale about life holding hands with death.

here just to yell about the softness of her expression, the absolute adoring, fond expression on her face, the fact that in every single form, and in every single way, she loves and knows the doctor.

My Lady Jane, everyone.

[yes7erdays-archive]

not around but i had the funniest insane thought and i need to share it with the class (the dash)

time lady clara verse, but all her fcs sort of look-alike because clara was like: i'm hot and perfect like this, why would i want to change anything?? neurotic freak who knows she is hot, times a hundred

first regen, hottest woman alive

second regen, she 100% rocks the bangs for most of her life

third regen, who has sort of a cowboy vibe throughout her entire life, but dies in space, staying out of an airlock for too long to save a friend (marty can i bully you into it being balfour?)

fourth regen, beloved little gremlin girl, clara lives roughly 200 hundred years in this body, and she was annoyed all of those years. why?? because her last death was traumatic, and since her control slipped her eyes this time are slightly green instead of her usual brown.

HIATUS ANNOUNCEMENT - end of june until august 15th. okay, so i got a lot coming up in the next month or so, and while i was originally going to extend my queue only until the end of my trip, i think i'm going to push it to the delivery date of my thesis. i'm really tired, and not feeling the creative juices right now. christine's blog has only been active because i was randomly inspired a month ago and cracked out a bunch of replies and put them in the queue. i will be back on august 15th (which is also my birthday!! hello!!) and annoy you guys again.

speaking of annoying, i'm going to post this across all my blogs so i can pin it with specific blog links, so... sorry.

OLD PINNED POST WITH INFO / CARRD / discord: available upon request, ask for it at nursc as that’s connected to my phone <3

❛⠀ ah, i see it now. how did i miss it before...⠀ ❜ frame tilts back, head tilting to the side as her eyes once again sweep the doctor up and down. ❛⠀ it was the alien. very distracting, but you're just like miss harlow from down the block, she also pulled off some distracting outfits due to her singular personality.⠀ ❜

the neighborhood's own knock-off queen, i say! dad used to say, before mom shushed him. white curls. strange hats. vibrant pops of color that hurt her eyes in the morning. not one look veered on fashionable, not even accidentally, but somehow, it worked. sort of like the fez.

❛⠀ eyebrows,⠀ ❜ she says, not impressed. ❛⠀ we just visited medieval france.⠀ ❜

"--Why my singular and delectable personality, of course." She finishes her sentence for her, staring the spectre of the celery dead in the eyes and deciding to wave it goodbye.

Embarrassment, after all, was a concept for other people.

" So, when are we?" Her arms cross as well, her stance a close mirror of Clara's, " I want to know if I should be on the lookout for a chin or a pair of eyebrows."

if not for the fact she desperately requires chloe to change her mind, clara might have tried to test the waters, and see if her spine of steel has some bend to it. it would certainly be fun to see her squirm. but no, sometimes, duty proceeds play. she does, however, make a mental note to revisit this matter latter: nothing in this world should be immune to her charms!

❛⠀ you drive a hard bargain.⠀ ❜⠀ head tilts, and without another word, she jumps off the table, pressing a much too fleeting kiss in chloe's cheek, before scurrying away, floral perfume lingering as the sound of her heels fades away.

The name only earns her a look through Chloe's eyelashes, a hint of frustration creeping into her features. She enjoys Clara's stubbornness and the slightly rogue side to her, but that doesn't mean it can't get on her nerves sometimes too. "Stop trying to charm me. It isn't going to work no matter how hard you try. Just because you think it might not cost me my job doesn't mean that it wouldn't, and I'm not going to help you if I don't know what it's for. So, if you're not going to tell me, then you'll simply have to find another way."

Let me tell you something. The water pressure in here is really impressive.

❛⠀ at chez clara, we care about the little things. ❜⠀ water pressure was one of the big conversations she had with her tardis, and the first that made her understand the doctor better; arguing with your ship is more than a necessity, it is a way of life, the push and pull, between caring and meddling, and how, in-between trips and when the only human voice echoing in these halls is your own, a five-hour argument about something dumb can be riveting.⠀❛⠀ don't forget to tip your busboy. ❜⠀

[yes7erdays-archive]

Is this for real? Or is this just funny? (from the 12th doctor)

❛⠀ can't it be both? ❜⠀ in their world, one notion rarely disqualified the other; on the contrary, it was typically the sort of thing that made her rush into the tardis without question. only difference was, it was usually the doctor dragging her towards the impossible, yet funny and real thing, prattling on about how this descendant of the elephant developed wings just like dumbo on one of earth's colonies in the 57th century, taunting her to challenge him about the accuracy of the nonsense he was spewing.

her real but funny event was considerably less dramatic.

❛⠀ it'll only take you a few hours, and i left you plenty of reading material, ❜⠀ she says, resting a hand on a pile of novels, fingers drumming against the paperback cover of 'the thorn birds'.⠀❛⠀ sit and wait for the guy to arrive. open the door, let him in and then wait for him to leave. three hours at most ... maybe five. please, doctor. i need the sink fixed and i got class. ❜⠀

the west wing, pilot, sentence starter meme.

Why are we sitting here?

I know he's your friend.

Well, you could call 1-800-BITE-ME.

Okay. You're lying now, aren't you?

I want to thank you for the casual way that you did that just now.

Let me tell you something. The water pressure in here is really impressive.

You're kidding me. It's five thirty in the morning.

I know this doesn't look good.

You know what? I really like you. And if you give me your number, I'd like to call you.

Please call the editor of the New York Times crossword and tell him that 'Khaddafi' is spelled with an h, and two d's, and isn't a seven letter word for anything.

Is this for real? Or is this just funny?

What do you want from me?

[name], while riding a bicycle on his vacation in Jackson Hole, came to a sudden arboreal stop.

Oh, for God's sake. Forget about the journey. Okay? The voyage is not our problem.

Not to mention the fact that it's wrong.

And when was the last time you brought me a cup of coffee? It was never. You've never brought me a cup of coffee.

Well, if you're going to make a big deal out of it...

I'm going to make a suggestion, which might help you out. But I don't want this gesture to be mistaken for an indication that I like you.

You jerk me around on this, and I'm going to get cranky right in your face.

So, I think it's time to play 'What have you done for me lately.'

It was a simple metaphor.

Economists were put on this planet to make astrologers look good.

Are you gonna freak out?

What's my name? My name doesn't matter.

I'm just an ordinary citizen who relies on the Times crossword for stimulation.

Every group has plenty of demons.

Yeah, I'm sorry. I should've told you. I wanted you to like me.

All the girls think you look really hot in this shirt.

Okay. I just want to thank you for all of your help.I should've put two and two together.

And I'm not inclined at this moment to make your life easier.

Well, this is bad on so many levels.

Are you listening to me?

They want you to say something arrogant.

Okay, can I just say that, as it turned out, I was the calmest person in the room?

Way to stay cool.

I thought you were going to take a swing at her there.

I'll be puttin' an end to that.

❛⠀ whatever you need to tell yourself. whatever you need to tell yourself,⠀ ❜ ⠀clara repeats, drawn in by the doctor's antics, nearly matching their ridiculousness as she tuts and shakes her head, arms crossing over her very fashion-forward jacket.

The rule of three was a crutch for the fashion-challenged among them.

❛⠀ and, pray tell, what goes with a fez? or a bow-tie. or, even with a...⠀ ❜ there is no need for her to finish the phrase, the ghost of the celery he used to pin to his eye-wateringly bright jacket haunting the conversation.

She responds with a smile of her own. So wide, so bright, so full of joy and life. A gentle pat to her cheek, and she steps away, the smile shifting to an equally wide, and so obviously pretend, gasp of utter shock.

" You did not!" A twirl, as if that would change her mind, hands easily slipping into her pockets as she takes a second to pose. " Shoes, belt, jacket. The rule of three, Clara Oswald. Some things are never out of style."

[yes7erdays-archive]

❛⠀ i'm supposed to be asking the weird, personal questions.⠀ ❜⠀ it is part of the speech. little jokes for each planet. some were jotted down by her processor, others she came up on the fly, looking at the smiling faces of the few bespectacled tourists who made the trek here. ❛⠀but, well,⠀ ❜⠀ she says, leaning in closer, a conspiratorial air about her. ⠀ ❛⠀who is gonna tell on us?⠀ ❜

overtaking him takes a few long strides. pleated skirt flares as she twirls, walking backwards into the first room. ⠀ ❛⠀almost three years now! started on the back, cataloguing and when they realized there was no way to shut me up, they pushed me out to the front.⠀ ❜

❛⠀and how did you hear about our little corner of heaven, mr.??⠀ ❜

the doctor likes a good museum. it's always a nice little trip down memory lane for him- until he gets annoyed by fakes & misinformation. expression falls as the guide tells him to wait & he's about to tell her what he thinks about waiting until she begins the tour. right then. good.

he's eager; practically striding ahead of her before he reigns himself in. he's got questions to ask, after all. ❝ hello, i'm the doctor. how long have you worked here then, claire ravenwood? ❞

[yes7erdays-archive]

her expression is indulgent as the doctor's fingers tease her cheeks, bursting with life and humor, pink lips curling upwards into a smile, plush lower lip hinting at a pout.⠀ ⠀

❛⠀ wisdom of the ages... yeah, that sounds about right.⠀ ❜ ⠀eyes skim down to her brown shoes before catching the doctor's.⠀ ❛⠀ matching the shoes with the jacket is so last century.⠀ ❜

@yes7erdays gets a thing

" My darling Clara Oswald, dearest." Her hands immediately come up to grasp the sides of her face, a smile most fond upon the lips. " Know that I say this with all the love in my hearts and with the wisdom of the ages-- Those shoes do not go well with that jacket."

[yes7erdays-archive]

❛⠀ chloepenny,⠀ ❜ ⠀she whines, undettered. chloe is no james bond heroine, she'll save the world without help, thank you very much. that red-hot streak of independence was what drew clara to her initially ( well... other than the attributes that did make her very much a bond girl ). ❛⠀ you are too good at your job to be fired. kate is no fool — not when it comes to this, at least. 'sides, all's well that ends well, and you know i got things under control.⠀ ❜

There's a look in Chloe's deep brown eyes that can only be described as a mixture of amusement and disbelief. She tilts her head as she takes her in for a moment, enjoying the sheer audacity Clara has to even say what she has just said.

"I would never have thought you would try to be like James Bond with me. I'm sorry to say that that doesn't work on me either. I'm not your ditzy little darling who is going to let you have your cake and eat it too damn the consequences. No. If you aren't going to tell me exactly what you're wanting me to risk my job for, then you'll have to find a way that doesn't involve me."
