Last of the current batch of fics for my Perimem series! Set after Nekromanteia

[makeawishandskimit]

Ok back to cute ones now. This one is after Three's a Crowd

[makeawishandskimit]

Ok the first couple fics I did in this series were cute and sweet and we will return to that but unfortunately first we must detour to this little thing that hurt me to write. Set after The Bride of Peladon.

Personally on the Bi Peri train technically but like all the ships with her that I actually care about are with women. Erimem however is clearly a lesbian and her dating a man in her book series is obviously a result of The Amnesia That Makes You Bisexual™️

Be a lesbian peri believer in a world of sixperi shippers

Have been working on a series of Perimem fics that are all short codas to their audios and prose stories. Two are currently up, set after The Axis of Insanity and Blood and Hope, and three more are finished and will be posted soon 💙

By the way my absolute favorite autistic Peri moment is in Exotron (which I believe you've done) where she literally just infodumps to the Doctor about plants for a couple minutes

"Peri, why did you tell them that we could hear them?"

"Well... I uh... because I'm autistic eavesdropping seemed rude!"

Mysterious Planet leading and AotC part 1 in last. So glad to see the people of tumblr being correct for once

Classic Companion Outfits - Qualifying Round (top four will advance)

My first fic! Peri takes Erimem to an O's game!

[makeawishandskimit]

Bad Terms confirmed to be Older Peri which is very exciting because I love that arc but also Big Finish please I beg you let Peri have at least one box set that's totally standalone and not tied to that arc because she deserves it and younger Peri and her relationship with Sixie is so wonderful

Hey have you considered maybe not just uncritically believing and sharing tweets with no source from an account that does nothing but complain about how "woke" Doctor Who is now?

So you mean to tell me you made the absolute worst episode of Doctor Who, nostalgia porn for no rhyme or reason, ruined Omega, killed The Rani who was a WOC while the old whitw woman lived, destroyed Belinda's character and fucked over Ncuti and Fifteen.....FOR A PUBLICITY STUNT?????

Michael Grade cancelled Doctor Who because he was a cunt. RTD's incompetence is killing Doctor Who

MY PRINCESS COMING BACK TO ME LET'S FUCKING GOOOOOOOOO

[makeawishandskimit]

IDK man, as someone who actually has quite enjoyed the Davies/Gatwa years to date, there's just something so fucking exhausting about the way people talk about it, and it's really flared up this season. The sheer level of contemptuous glee with which some people seem to welcome the possibility of cancellation is just really, truly getting me down. I'm not even talking about the people who are being tiresomely racist, because they're just an extension of the same people who have been being tiresomely sexist for nearly seven years now.

But just, like... I dunno, man, there's a level of vicious meanness to fandom's present discourse that's really been bad for my mental health all around, and has honestly played a big part in my slowing down my writing, because any time I want to write something earnest and heartfelt about how a given piece of media affected me I end up second-guessing myself because I feel like nobody wants to read anything like that. Instead they'd much rather just pounce on the latest rumour drummed up by vile publications like the Sun, where like... even if the cancellation goes through, do you really want to be on the side of the Sun?

I think the hatred of Wish World broke something in me, because I really liked it, I thought it was a surprisingly barbed little number that picked at nostalgia and conservatism. Plus, like a lot of RTD2 its earnest engagement with what it means to be queer genuinely means a lot to me as someone who started realising they were queer right as The Star Beast hit (and eventually ended up realising they were trans) and who has been grappling with a lot of fear and uncertainty as a result.

So, y'know, going online and just seeing everyone be all "Oh it sucks," "It's garbage," "RTD L," "Wow they really betrayed the character integrity of the Rani" (what the fuck are you even talking about with that one, what character integrity did the Rani ever have, for Christ's sake?). My point is never that one should just be a blind, mindless consumer. Far from it. If anything, I would rather people actually pause to think "Hmm maybe this piece of media is trying to say something." And I mean I get if it doesn't resonate with you. I get if you think it's crashingly unsubtle, or if there are aspects of its commentary that you find lacking. I've had some criticisms of the Gatwa Era as well, and I can acknowledge them.

But on the whole, I've had a great time, and I dunno, it just... makes me feel like shit to see so many people so violently disagreeing and dismissing any possibility that any of these stories could have any kind of resonance with people.
