#except I can write fluffy AF when it's Doctor/TARDIS (which even i can see is a weird exception to have yeah)

[nostalgia-tblr]

normal people writing shipfic: *5000 words of emotional openness and eloquent declarations of love and general softness and maybe also some crying because Love*

me writing shipfic: "are people going to think it's overwrought and cloying if one of them begrudgingly admits to the other that they don't actively hate them? is that too sappy? maybe i should take that bit out?"

#it me #i do think of myself as Bad At Writing Fluff And/Or Romance #and i may not read much fluff but i respect them what can actually write it #anyway this is A Problem given that much of what i write is in some way shipfic #except I can write fluffy AF when it's Doctor/TARDIS (which even i can see is a weird exception to have yeah) #though also Ten/Donna a bit? but i suppose i'm devoted to their devotion to each other even when it's gen #(I suppose with that former they can say literally anything to her and know she's not going to tell anyone. because she has no mouth.) #I Have No Mouth And I Must Let Everyone Know That My Thief-Slash-Pilot-Slash-Pet Is Madly In Love With Me - a true classic #also i have that weird rule about the words 'I love you' only being allowed if they make things worse. WTF is with that??? #fic related
