the reveal about ruby’s mother actually makes perfect sense when you think about it. why else would someone name their baby by pointing at a random sign in the middle of the night and dress in wizard robes while leaving said baby behind on a doorstep in a church if they weren’t a teenager whacked out of their mind on pain medications

There are precisely two flavours of shipping thoschei and they are *extremely long philosophical discussion of morals, ontology and philosophy of mind* and *do you guys think time lords have a special post-coital purr? 🥰*
And those two flavours are usually wonderfully mixed

there is something wrong with me.
there is something ugly following me, it must be, because why else would everyone leave me. something is wrong with me and that's why everybody leaves. and i tried, i tried so hard to make peace with how ugly this part of me is. i tried to keep it at a distance, keep it separate from me. but any time somebody caught even a glimpse of it, it frightened them and then they left.
there is something wrong with me and it makes people leave me and so they can never find out. they can never see that ugly side of me because then they will leave. except i'm hiding it and they still leave. what am i doing wrong? did it slip through somehow and made them leave? or is the ugliness in me still?
i try so hard to hide it because i don't want to be alone, i don't want to be abandoned dammit, but the ugliness won't leave and the ugliness is all i can think about. i think about it more than i think about my partner, my friends, my family. in a way, it's the closest thing to home i have now
and then something happens and i think to myself - this is it. this is what all of this has been for, something is wrong with me and everybody leaves me. but. if i can be useful then maybe this awful ugliness will finally leave me alone. yes i want to be left alone now, please abandon me like everybody else, please prove me right
and then i'm useful and the ugliness stays. i sigh
years pass and people continue to leave me. i don't know if it's because of me or her anymore, it doesn't really matter. everybody left, but she is still here. i can always see her out of the corner of my eye. her presence brings me comfort. she stayed. despite everything she stayed. she is my closest confidant, my best friend, the one that will stand with me when nobody else will
she is me
and i won't abandon myself anymore

HLVRAI fandom loves taking traits from the old men and giving them to Benrey. Raised immorally in a lab? That's just Bubby. Eats nonfoods to get a reaction out of people? Doctor Harold Coomer had his colon replaced so he can no longer acquire dysentery from consuming weird shit. Swallowing an entire military grade radio is only the second worst thing he's eaten in the series
Anyway Benrey learns from the best

saw the new wicked trailer and i hate ar*ana gr*nde and the blandness of it all + haven’t thought about wicked the musical since i saw it live at age thirteen, but i just got blasted with thoschei rays of a magnitude of 10 on the richter scale. childhood friends polar opposites with an inextricable bond studying at some morally questionable Magical Academy one of them is perpetually misunderstood and goes crazyinsane because evil is what is Expected of them. and emerald city in the new movie looks like the gallifrey citadel. do you get me
then i remembered there’s literally a canon doctor who novel (that i’ll get around to reading someday) in which thirteen somehow finds herself stranded in the land of oz and missy is quite literally the wicked witch of the west. and they actually interact. complete with toxic yuri subtext and everything. so i guess i’m not the only one !!

What is your favourite Doctor Who story?
ROUND 3 MASTERPOST
synopses and propaganda under the cut
The Daemons
Synopsis
The Master, posing as a rural vicar, summons a cloven-hoofed demon-like creature named Azal in a church crypt. Seeking to gain the ancient titan's demonic power, he gathers a cult and then corrupts or controls the residents of Devil's End to bow to his will. Dark elemental forces begin to disturb the village on the eve of May Day: unexplained murders, a stone gargoyle come to life, and a nigh-impenetrable infernal energy dome. With the Master fully prepared to destroy the Earth, the Doctor and UNIT — aided by a benevolent practitioner of witchcraft — battle the wicked rites of a secret science wielded by an alien from another world.
Propaganda
what is the most important quality of a good doctor who story, to have a strong plot, something to say, something new to try. all of these are positives, yes, but sometimes the best doctor who stories are just fun. sometimes they feature the master pretending to be the leader of a satanic cult pretending to be an anglican priest, remote control bessie, an alien who's basically the devil, a living gargoyle, a witch, and the doctor escaping being tied to a maypole by pretending to be a wizard. truly, this is the heights of doctor who, it is beyond fun to watch, i love it so much.
If that’s not enough, then surely the fact that this has THE ‘the brigs an alcoholic and mike yates is gay’ moment (anonymous)
An Unearthly Child
Synopsis
Barbara Wright and Ian Chesterton, two humble teachers during 1963, are surprised by a bright student named Susan Foreman. Confused by the contradictions in Susan's knowledge, Barbara had decided to visit her home, only to learn that the address on record is a junkyard. She and Ian decide to wait at the location until Susan or her grandfather show up. There, they discover a junkyard inhabited by her grandfather, simply known as "the Doctor", and he doesn't want them lurking about.
When the teachers refuse to leave, they discover that an ordinary police box is actually bigger on the inside. The Doctor decides they know too much about his and Susan's otherworldly origins and takes them on a journey across space and time in his TARDIS, the place he and Susan now call home.
Propaganda no propaganda submitted
