Which group contains the strongest competitor

[capybaraonabicycle]

4. who’s wardrobe would you steal?

9. which villain can you not take seriously at all?

12. what’s a headcanon that’s you forget isn’t actually canon?

– @poppies-for-thirteen 🥀✨

Thank you for the ask <3

4. who’s wardrobe would you steal?

Bill's! No doubt. I mean look at her:

I am a huge fan of Clara's and Rose's wardrobe, too and I would so steal 9's jacket and 12's hoodies ❤ And Ace's jacket!!

9. which villain can you not take seriously at all?

I don't know...The Slitheen, maybe? Generally, I can take anyone seriously, because (speaking of Bill) I know this show can make the most unimportant side character shoot my love.

I tend to not take the Master seriously enough though, because I am too busy swooning over them.

12. what’s a headcanon that’s you forget isn’t actually canon?

That the Doctor doesn't sleep nearly enough. I mean, I think it is heavily implied in the show but I don't think it is explicitely said? But I am 100% convinced of that.

Also not as clearly canon but I want to drop some more:

Mels and Rory were really close in school

13 still plays 12's guitar

13 has the photo of River and the painting of Clara in her room and regularly talks to them - they give her girl advice about Yaz mostly

The Doctor would enjoy pear cake but none of the regenerations like fresh pears

Martha and Donna are still friends or at least Martha visits Wilf regularly to check in on her

The Doctor, Lee, Gat and Karvanista were extremely close before the split. Lee was the one organising running away, but the Doctor was in on it. They decided not to take Gat along because of her stronger loyalty to Division but Karvanista was left behind on accident

Yaz is the TARDIS's favourite companion out of all of them so far (from Nuwho), closely followed by Ryan

She Dreams

Disclaimer: I’ve only seen the first four episodes of S11 plus Kerblam!, so sorry if my characterization of the Doctor is off.

AO3

She remembers.  After all this time, after all these millennia have passed, she remembers.  Not all of the time, of course, but they all had shaped the person she had become in some form or another.  Especially her.  Some nights, when she manages to sleep without the nightmares or emptiness, she dreams of a young woman with wanderlust in her eyes and so much compassion in her heart that she could teach empathy to a Dalek.  And occasionally, the dream ends without the nightmare finale, only for the Doctor to reach out and feel an empty bed beside her. She’s gone, hopefully happy in that other world, with her other self.

Other nights she dreams of another young woman, with a desire to escape their homeworld and explore the universe that matched her own.  She dreams of a granddaughter rebuilding a planet, living her own life, and being with the love of her life.  She dreams of a promise that as of yet goes unfulfilled, the time having passed being unmeasurable, even by a Time Lord.

She dreams of them all, at one point or another.  Some had died, but most lived.  Perhaps most importantly, she remembers the ones who can’t.  The ones whose memories were gone, who had lost more than just their knowledge of her.  They had travelled the universe, and there were people who were safe because of them.  She remembers for them, the ones who can’t, because someone has to.

Faces swirl together, names are occasionally mixed up, but she never forgets. Not completely.  She remembers what it was like to forget, temporarily, and swears never again.  No one deserves to be forgotten and so she goes through as many people as she can remember, starting with her current companions.  Yaz, Ryan, and Graham.  Grace. Bill.  Nardole.  Clara. River.  Vastra and Jenny.  Amy and Rory. Wilf.  Adelaide.  Christina. Jackson.  Astrid.  Martha. Donna.  Mickey.  Jack. Rose.

Helen. C’rizz.  Lucie.  Molly. Mary.  Grace.  Hex.  Hector.  Ace. Mel.  Peri.  Evelyn. Erimem.  Charley.  Liv.  Jason.  Crys. Constance.  Kamelion.  Turlough.  Flip.  Thomas. Tegan. Hannah.  Nyssa.  Adric. Ann.  Romana.  K-9. Leela.  Harry.  Sarah. Yates.  Benton.  The Brigadier.  Jo. Liz.  Zoe.  Victoria. Jamie.  Ben and Polly.  Dodo. Sara.  Katarina.  Oliver. Steven.  Vicki.  Ian and Barbara.  And her dear granddaughter, Susan.

She hopes she remembers them all.  She hopes there doesn’t come a day when she can’t remember a single name or face that isn’t currently in the TARDIS.

I carry them with me. What they would've thought and said and done. I make them a part of who I am. So even though they're gone from the world, they're never gone from me.

A Doctor Who Companion Bracket

Yes, that's right, I'm jumping on the trend late and making one of these, but with one key difference: I'm making it more complicated. Not that much more complicated, you still just click on your favourite whenever you see a poll, but I'm going to be starting with an elimination round featuring every single TV companion, a few EU companions, and some extras that I like just to round the numbers out properly.

The first round will have 11 groups, divided up by era. The top half (rounding up) of compnions in each the group will then go through to the brackets, and from there it'll be business as usual and exactly the same as these have all been run.

The first polls (the group stage) will go live on Sunday, and then after those have been inputted the brackets will go out every day until we reach the final. I'll also make a masterpost of every poll

Breakdowns of the groups under the cut!

First Doctor Companions

Four will be chosen from Ian, Barbara, Susan, Vicki, Steven, Katarina, Sara, and Dodo!

Second Doctor Companions

Three will be chosen from Ben, Polly, Jamie, Victoria, and Zoe!

Third Doctor Companions

Three will be chosen from the Brigadier, Liz, Benton, Yates, and Jo!

Fourth Doctor Companions

Three will be chosen from Sarah Jane, Harry, Leela, K-9, Romana I, and Romana II!

Fifth Doctor Companions

Three will be chosen from Adric, Nyssa, Tegan, Turlough, and Kamelion!

Sixth, Seventh, and Eighth Doctor TV Companions

Two will be chosen from Peri, Mel, Ace, and Grace!

Big Finish Companions

Two will be chosen from Frobisher, Evelyn, Charley, and Lucie!

Ninth and Tenth Doctor Companions

Four will be chosen from Rose, Adam, Jack, Mickey, Martha, Donna, and Wilf!

Eleventh Doctor Companions

Three will be chosen from Amy, Rory, River, Vastra, Strax, and Jenny!

Twelfth Doctor Companions

Three will be chosen from Clara, Nardole, Bill, Kate, Osgood, and Missy!

Thirteenth Doctor Companions

Two will be chosen from Graham, Ryan, Yaz, and Dan!

May the best companion win (or at the very least not get knocked out immediately)
