I feel like we never really explored the fact that Amy Pond was lowkey famous in Doctor Who. Like she was a famous enough model that people wanted her autograph?
So in universe, a popular model and her husband just disappeared into thin air one day and were never seen again. The house left like they were expecting to come back to it (because they were) and no bodies were ever found? what does the public think happened? Are there like, buzzfeed unsolved episodes about them? Do they have their own shitty documentary on the history Channel or something?

im really hoping this dsmp season ends in two completly different streams going on simultanously, i want karl to be on the other side, talking to some disembodied voice about corruption, time, and sacrifice, watching as in the other stream, a full on raging war goes off, need against need against need, bonds and bridges and homes burned, stories untold, stories buried under a cacophony of screams, of pleads, of prays and of hatred, legacies burned, legacies forgotten, legacies gone. i want the voice to give karl two options, either keep going as he has been and let them be forgotten like the many before and many after he has encounter, or restart with them, but forget all the lives he lived and never get to live another one. i want karl to look back at the other stream just as hope is losing, and i want him to look at the people he lived with and the places he loved in and i want him to say "we can do better. we will do better."
i want both streams to end in the worst possible cliffhanger and then when the next streams starts up, it's a new seed, a new update, a new world. i want karl to spawn in with a book that has only one page that says "we hope you're right." that he ends up trading for like idk four pork chops or something. i want this to bleed into an arg. it think it'd be fun and also funny

I FOUND IT
Like I get where this person is comming from but when Ryley landed on 4546B Bart would be 29
I think that the game made it very clear that the Degasi crashed a decade before Aurora and Bart was 19 at that time.. which means (in combination of Subnautica lore and math) that IF Bart survived the 10 long years he would obviously age up
Maybe reading the PDAs is something that should be done even if you wouldn't get addicted to the game... just saying🤷🏻♀️
[I just remembered that I saw someone on Instagram ranting about how shipping Ryley and Bart is weird (or 'fucked up', I don't remember exactly what they said) because Ryley is like 25-30 or something like that and Bart is 19 and I was like "do your math pls" So yeah... I ended up laughing for like 5 minutes (Too bad I didn't take a screenshot)]
yeah ok i get the concern here but like yeah as you said!! this isnt like one of those "taking a 15yo and aging them up to 18 to make them legal", bart's already 19, and he's 19 a DECADE before the events of the game, including any possibility of meeting ryley.
assuming ryley is 25-30 - which his age is never mentioned either, so for all we know, ryley could be 19 himself!! - but we're gonna assume he's 22-30 based on his job, general appearance and maturity in a high stress situation. in the ten years that pass between bart and ryley EVER crossing paths, bart would be 26-31, give or take a few years for that mentioned decade to be possibly rounded.
bart could be OLDER than ryley for all we know. worse case, these guys can't have more than like, maybe a 6 year age gap. and that's entirely dependent on someone's personal reading of ryley. his age is NEVER mentioned or hinted at. the youngest he could be is 18. oldest maybe 40. but who's to say?? it's never brought up!
taking the decade jump into account though,, yeah ryley and bart are like the same age. they're probably within 5 years of each other, both in their late twenties by the events of sub1. its just the time skip between the degasi and aurora that creates this weird "Bart's 19, Ryley's 26" mentality.
like an example off the top of my head would be like, saying you cant ship nathan drake with chloe because they show nate as a kid a couple of times. kind of arbitrary.
but on the other hand, yeah, i guess this ship is founded on bart's 19 year old personality. which is weird at face value now that im thinking about it. but even then, ryley doesn't have a personality to begin with, outside survival knowledge. and bart clearly isn't some super naive child; he goes through some massive maturing character development just over the span of the months the degasi were all alive. bart can clearly take care of himself and speak up on problems, and we don't know if he had another birthday after the crash or not. we don't know exactly how long the degasi were there! or how long they had been in space prior! bart could have been 20 when he died, he was definitely an adult by that point. young, but cmon.
if anybody is shipping bart in degasi era, where he's like explicitly 19, ie shipping him with marg, then YEAH thats obviously a problem. but ryley/bart is, in my experience, almost always written in a bart lives story where he spends 10 more years maturing before being introduced to ryley.
they're,,,, they're the same age. almost always, if theres some odd story out there making it not always, expressly written where bart is nearly 30, making him typically older than ryley. the central idea with this person's take is that bart is not, and should not, be written as his Recent Post-Crash self. bart is Post Reaper Incident, and gets added several more years on top of that. i think it's a misconstruction on the lore/fandom ideas of ages, but otherwise not a horrible thing to point out ig??
(some of the bart ships DEFINITELY NEED TO BE LOOKED INTO. ryley is like, the most tame option, and thankfully why its likely the most popular!)

Small update for anyone who cares to read;
I know I have been pretty quiet lately other than the odd post here and there. I've been feeling a bit withdrawn which always happens around winter time (we love seasonal depression on top of the normal depression) and its making me hate anything I make and feel like nothing is good enough. As well as getting my new job sorted and I've been fighting with my last job about getting my final pay and payslip to the point I had to threaten legal action because they owed me £400 and I have BILLS and it's all just been very stressful. Also my Grandma got covid but she's out of the hospital at least, which is good.
So I'm sorry if I've dropped of the face of the earth in regards to reaching out about RP, replying to RP or I'm simply not interacting with people as much as I used too. My brain is on creative hiatus in a ditch somewhere even though I didn't agree to this and I've been trying to get back into it through Febhyury but it's just 👏 not 👏 working.
Thanks for reading if you did and I'm sure I'll shake this bs soon!!
