many people have sacrificed themselves in the name of the Doctor, after being inspired or given strength by the Doctor, but nothing has ever been or will ever be as devastating as the Doctor committing an atrocity against the laws of time of such magnitude, that it drives someone to commit suicide so that they can undo the Doctor's actions and ensure that history isn't changed and the future of humanity is safe.

because this is what happens when the Doctor is on their own for too long, without someone to stop them and a hand to hold. this is what happens when the Doctor is overcome by their despair, grief and sorrow.

i will never stop praising The Waters of Mars and the Time Lord Victorious arc for the masterpieces that they are.

i think his biggest fear is either throwing up or failing, especially academically. he threw up in his mouth once and was just frozen in place for fear of actually being sick . i was gonna say something about the failing but i forgot what i was thinking of

emetophobic scara is such a niche but real headcanon. like the precision with which u nailed this fear down & yet it makes perfect sense. especially if u couple it with a nausea-inducing case of general anxiety and meds tht r hard on the stomach … hmn. vomiting makes him so anxious he wants to vomit… ouroboros loop of turmoil.

Not sure how hot a take this is but Twelve had the best regeneration sequence (at least in NuWho) by a landslide like good fucking god

[allyriadayne]

The Emma/Matt as leads and Olivia as supporting things being so controversial is wild nobody is saying Olivia is not a lead let's think people! Matt was clearly a lead last season as well yet he was campaigned in supporting hmm I wonder why...and don't even get me started on the people who think Tom should actually be in lead instead of Matt. Literally by no metric does that make any sense. Even in the book Daemon was more of a main character than Aegon so you can't even got with "the war is Rhaenyra vs Aegon actually!" excuse.

yeh this fandom suffers from tunnel vision and i get it! but we gotta see the bigger picture sometimes

one way I would describe brad dourif's acting is "screaming crying throwing up" [compliment]

Iuci as a character is basically entirely based on this one single shot from Foundation

[alisaint]

can i be honest. nicholas did well enough and clearly they cast him in rw&rb for a reason but he is just Not giving "gay as a maypole" imo. meanwhile taylor is over here with the tender unconscious bg touches and REAL kissing and hip thrusts and grabbing at him, really serving that bisexual king alex & "i'm just as comfortable kissing male coworkers as i am female coworkers" realness. watch nicholas in the idea of you and then watch rw&rb. he put his whole actorussy in kissing ms hathaway and yet none of that flavor and raw intimacy is found in his gay shit............. so very sad to see. i hope this will not be the case in the sequel :/

Ewen Leslie and Matthew Backer as Dr. Henry Jekyll and Gabriel Utterson in Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde

as a fan of another pl team i think your problem is that your captain is son. he's too emotional and soft and instead of demanding better of your players he goes around comforting them and protecting them from the refs. idk i feel like he's probably let the band get to his head a bit and now he's pushing people like PEH (who have proper authority) away from the refs, it's a bit weird. strange appointment. he's trying too hard

know him do you?

Ok the performance for dub Vash in Stampede is absolutely stellar and the VA’s improvement REALLY SHOWS like holy shit I love it BUT I am absolutely mourning the loss of Vash’s lil accent,,,

/ realized I forgot to put this in my bio and will add it later but

heads up that my Yuri is a combination of JP Yuri and dub Yuri, but primarily JP. there's a whole lot of nuance to Yuri that got left out of the dub (and seeing as he has waaay more content in JP due to the vast amount of crossovers/Tales crossovers/gachas he's in, it's a lot easier to keep Toriumi's take on him (and in depth understanding no less!) in mind). overall you get the same general person, but the dub left out a lot more his casual/playful side in vocal tone, preferring to go for the "edgy cool adult" concept despite, well, the JP version of him intentionally being quite opposite.

(on another note, context I use for Yuri involves nuances found in the drama CDs that are a condensed retelling of the game (before some original stuff) as well as his childhood novel which has voiced dialogue for his child and teen years. this post covers the game, but a lot of (especially internal) stuff for my muse may be heavily affected by his backstory too which is unfortunately completely absent in the actual game itself)

there's also a lot of back and forth between him and other characters that really lost their depth in the dub (ex. Yuri being much more gentle and soft with early game Karol when Karol was convinced nobody would believe him and that he was a failure, or his banter with Flynn being a lot more relaxed and significantly less annoyed with a better understanding of each other). I'll be retaining anything the dub yeeted out for whatever odd reason regarding his relationships.

(one particular grievance of mine is in the Flynn jailbreak scene, where Yuri is basically saying "you're just dying to abandon me" and Flynn starts off with "that's right" before basically saying the same thing - i.e. they both know it's not true and Flynn is going along with it because That's Them, to which Yuri responds with a solid and fully accepting "yeah" (no hesitation, no concern over it, as he prioritizes Flynn's life over his own).

another extremely strong grievance I have is the port scene - oops also with Flynn - where he's basically holding back tears asking for answers in desperation, which was extremely if not outright completely lost in the dub where he only sounds angry and not just utterly hurt. dub Yuri? I could believe he might kill Flynn if it came to that. JP Yuri? forget it, he would hold back at the last second and couldn't go through with it. that's genuinely the level of difference that was present between both audios.

that said, I love Troy Baker's performance itself - I just think he was unfortunately deeply incorrectly directed for several of his major scenes, and also unfortunately, some of those cases were involving some of his most important relationships)

if any of y'all play Vespy any time soon, I fully recommend giving it a shot with its original context at least once (if you're playing the DE version there's an option for JP audio)! even if you don't understand JP, at the very least the tone won't be lost on you! from what I've heard apparently there wasn't much communication between the directors on both sides, so a lot of Yuri got lost in the localization (and Karol's screaming is glorious in JP lbh).

tl;dr Yuri really is just a silly little guy and he's really not that cool or serious. he's a dork. he's a dummy. and he's easily embarrassed about it. get deep enough into his feelings for Flynn when they're not in a life or death situation and he'll completely cave in embarrassment.
