#im not about episodes where the docs team up
Text
audio commentary of potd pt 1:
the bullet train bit at the start initially was the idea for a new years episode but they couldnt get like the sets in time so they had to rethink. the scene we see in potd was basically like the climax of that would-have-been episode
jodie: the really handy thing about these is that the masks steamed up within seconds of putting them on. fgkjhgkjgh
it's the first time mandip is seeing the episode this is like a month before they aired it? chris asks if it's like she imagined and shes like no it's way quicker (thatd be because they cut out hALF THE LINES no im kidding im kidding fghkjhh)
this episode wasnt even gonna exist? they were gonna do six episodes of flux and two specials and then when they'd just started filming flux (start of 2021?) they got asked to do another one for the centennary/to give the next team a bit more time
calling up sophie and janet to ask them to come back they both said like "i think tegan would be big friends with ace" "i think ace would be massive friends with tegan" like separately <3
about ace's costume: mandip: we both had doc martens on! so, yaz is cool, as well jodie: (just making it about you.) (youre not in this scene this isnt about you)
jodie stole the little ashad from timeless children
jodie asks if chris had ever any ideas to kill of any of the companions and he says no but both john bishop and bradley walsh asked if they could be killed off?? and he was like no guys this is about yaz and the doctor
"this lovely street in wales that is not liverpool" <3
during that reunion scene with ace and tegan, chris talks about how in 70s 80s doctor who and unit and how he hadnt really realised while doing it that what theyve ended up with here is that like every leading character in unit is a woman now? he talks about how like the doctor becomes a woman and you can then sort of see the full effect of that in the reunion scene here where it's just like all women
jodie about the reunion scene: i always wanted to react as 13, but then only in this episode i was met with people who had interacted with other doctors. so do you try and react in a way appropriate for them and their doctor? but i always wanted to do 13. it was always a bit complicated especially later on with the ai.
chris asked who were their favourite guest stars to work with and the entire conversation derails into just listing everyone and saying how much fun they had
jodie obviously has seen the full episode before this and she keeps teasing mandip abt it like going "oh we talked over half that scene now you have no any idea of whats going on" and then at the scene where the master talks to ace and tegan from the unit jail she slaps her like "watch this watch this watch this this is a good bit watch this!" and they watch a bit in silence and then chris goes "you just shushed her in a commentary to go 'watch this this is a really good bit'" it's specifically the bit where ashad grows and all the cybermen come out and mandip goes "oh that is good" and then she goes "you know like those russian dolls you get where they all fit inside each other" and jodie goes "thats what it is" and chris goes "thats the plot" im looosing it
jodie slapping mandip again about the rasputin scene "watch this" they watch a bit of the scene and then chris giggles and mandip goes "whens his bit coming on" chris: youre just pointing at the screen, jodie. it's at the end of the scene jodie: oh. chris: hes explaining the plot jodie: oh hes explaining the plot chris: and then hes gonna play the music thats how it works

Band of Brothers 20th Anniversary Symposium - From Toccoa to Europe: On the Ground with Easy Company (a brief summary)
no one wanted to write episode 6 apparently
“Put the clock on Ross” 😂
Shane always gravitated towards Roe throughout the audition process, but didn’t know if that’s who he would end up being
Shane said everyone really wanted to go to boot camp
Rick said most of his used source material was him talking to the actual people/George’s wife and people who knew George
“GET THIS GOD DAMN PLATOON ON THE MOVE” 😂
Rick said he just felt really supported by his fellow cast and the team making the show 🥺
“This isn’t about you this is about easy company.” - Ross about how the actors felt as a team doing the show
Matthew said he grew up watching war movies and his dad was a marine, so he grew up with the shows material
Matthew didn’t get to talk to Spiers but he said he “got to stare at his picture, and if you stare at it long enough something happens”
“We we’re all scared of you. We’re still scared of you” - everyone on stage @ Matthew bc of how mysterious spiers was 😂
“Ross is my handler” - Matthew “that’s the worst handler in the world!” 😂
The writers said they were all cocky after they got out of boot camp but it meant they had a show bc it showed how much they bonded
Ross said they all had to earn the right to wear their uniforms bc they wanted to make sure there was respect 🥺
RICK IMMITATED DONNIES NEW KIDS MOVES IM HAHAHAHA
Donnie whalberg took the marches very seriously bc Rick said “he has so much swagger”
ROSS CALLED THEM A BOYBAND “we were basically a boyband” 😂
Episode 6: all of the real life men said that Doc Roe was an “angel” 🥺
Episode 7: there was a moment where Buck was supposed to run out of the trees and be tackled by Luz who would save his life but they decided not to show that part to show respect
Ross said the scene in the church was just so serene for them bc of the impact it had
Episode 7 was one of the last episodes they shot
They shot them In this order: 1, 2, 3, 5, 4, 9, 10, 6, 7, and filmed 8 last
Dick Winters was one of the only people who would talk about the subject matter of episode 9. He kept saying “I was there I saw it you have to tell this story”
Writer wanted to make episode 9 about Nixon and dick was so excited
When winters goes into the widows house he’s so uncomfortable and he feels guilty really did happen to winters
Winters said it was okay thar the writer took his story and gave it to Nixon
When there are mistakes in the show, it was usually because of the real life guys remembering something wrong

im basically obsessed with usm (didnt watch season 3 or 4 :/) and i can talk about the usm team all night. im happy i found another me wkhshaksk hi!!
i didn't watch other seasons bc it really made me mad how they just forgot about shield team. sorry but,,, they were petes original team and he would NEVER forget about them. there were SO MANY CHARACTERS and and at some point i couldn't understand what's happening anymore
ugh i wish other seasons was like s1-2 too:( they were family
UGH YES EXACTLY i know i basically said all of this in this post but i’m gonna say it again because YOURE SO RIGHT. like the beginning of s3 there’s that 2 episode mini arc about how even though the avengers are a great team with good people, they’re just not where spidey belongs. he belongs with his shield team, his friends and family. every season finale up to this point has been like “we’re a team and we stick together and we can’t give up on that no matter what.” like with the goblin arc that JUST finished up as the s2 finale?? and then s3 is all about spidey putting together a new team of kids and we hardly see any of the og shield team and it’s just!! i don’t understand!! if they were so important to peter and staying with them mattered so much to him that he left the avengers then WHY does it seem like he hardly cares to spend time with them any more?? i mean we see some of that towards harry in the vulture episode, we know peter feels bad when he doesn’t get to spend quality time with his friends, and we know he cares very deeply for his team because HE LEFT THE FUCKING AVENGERS to be with them again?? so WHY is there so little of them in the recent season? i just. i feel like i can’t say this enough but peter gave up BEING AN AVENGER in order to rejoin HIS TEAM and then he just sort of abandons them to put together an entirely new team???? it just does not make sense.
like there are parts of s3&4 that i do like. the redemption arcs, for one. i love a good redemption arc. i absolutely adore how dedicated spidey is to helping people be better than they were yesterday, to believing in them when everyone else has given up. flash, norman, sandman, hell even doc ock pulled through in the eleventh hour (that one did feel pretty rushed, especially considering how well-paced flint marco’s arc was but you can’t win ‘em all i suppose) and i do really enjoy the ben reilly & the synthoids (still not sure that’s the right word) arc but yeah. danny and sam and ava and luke got sidelined SO hard and it’s just. it’s out of character for peter and it’s disappointing from a narrative standpoint.
ANYWAYS that was a lot of words to say that basically i completely agree, they were family and s1&2 were PEAK

Team MLV vs the Ultra Brothers: Who will win?
Either way, let’s also set up 3 basic rules. The first concerns both sides, the second concerns only the Ultra Brothers, and the last only concerns only Team MLV, because if they have this, they WILL win.
—1: No enhanced forms or fusions.
—2: No reality manipulation or dimensional manipulation or whatever you were talking about in my last qn. I don’t know where Taro and Ace showcased this, but even if it was in their shows, it’s clearly considered non-canon now. I mean, why wouldn’t they have just used that to find the Kingdom in UGF3 if it was canon? 
—3: No elemental abilities, ‘cause if Team MLV has this, even if Vylcan’s the only one using them, the Ultra Brothers have no shot, especially given the other rules. I mean it, if their elemental abilities were allowed, Vylcan could probably just amplify himself enough to destroy any one of the Ultra Brothers with only a few punches.
Anyway, I’ve sent you a doc with all of the abilities of each member of Team MLV. (Btw, recall that Ultraman Adam is my name for the OG Ultraman).
Point 2 is gonna rub some feathers tbh cause the reason why they dont use those abilities anymore is the same reason why main series ultras dont just show up and instantly annihilate Tier 2 kaiju even tho theyve shown very clearly that they could, same reason why Tartarus dosent also instantly destroy US Zero since it was clearly shown in UGF3 ep 10 that even the upgraded US Zero barely makes him flinch (recall that Seven was also involved in that fight thus I can say that AT's damage was due to Seven rather than him, consistent with the fact that he took a hit from Shining Ultimate Zero and was still standing AFTER getting a beatdown from the Leo brothers), same reason why PI Belial didnt also instantly dissipate Geed and Z as well despite the vast difference in power and why can Deathcium Ray Burst knock down PI Belial as well
Its all to make a good show, otherwise fights would end in under a few seconds, and the entire displayed conflict between the Ultras and the Absolutians would also end in a single ep since I pointed out that there simply isnt enough Elite Absolutians to handle even the entire cast of UB-level Ultras
Otherwise by your rationale, the infamous Ginga S episode 12 meme where the Zoa Muruchi that solo'ed both Ginga and Victory would be universal level
There are fans that are for and against those feats still being considered canon or nah. Personally, considering the other ridiculous feats of power we've seen beings other than Ultras have protrayed, as well as how powerful Ultras get as they grow older, Im of the opinion that those hax are canon, and they only reason why they dont showcase those abilities anymore is as said, to have a more interesting fight sequence
(Additionally as I also answered before, TsuPro wouldnt want to have to address a situation of "Hax vs Hax" regularly cause it inevitably introduces an extremely convoluted system, iirc i talked in depth about this in the Chaos Darkness vs Sphere ask)
And with good reason too, as the franchise has tried its best to shift away from delving into higher and higher powerscales beyond New Gen Ultras (Movie form++ like US Zero is the current cap) or else theyll eventually encounter the same problem like Dragonball by writing themselves into a hole whereby the in-universe/multiverse/omniverse scaling cannot keep up with its inhabitants (unless they would have a do a metaversal level of retconning every few years just to avoid this issue, which is an absolute pain in the ass to do due to its implications like what Marvel and DC comics do from what I can understand), which was something they alr did up till Taro which was why u saw that they toned it down so much up till now, with the exception of rare occurences of Legendary Ultras and High Tier fusions obviously
(Note that we're currently not even vibing at Multiversal scales mind you, low multi-universal at best with the current UGF plot, expect things to stay this way for the foreseeable future until TsuPro decides to shift their target audiences to young adults)
Thus Im vibin with this canon, and by removing those abilities, youre bascially nerfing them as far as Im concerned
But again, this has too many characters in a single ask, recall I told u max 2v2 yo, unless u can generalize 2 groups in a short summary via numbers or sth within the ask itself (or summarize and highlight the main attributes like base power, multipliers or sth, not just a reference scale to yet another OC which we dk the scaling for) cause I sure as hell aint gonna read all that in the link u sent just for an AU ask

why there was never an episode of doctor who where the doc and his new companion/s on their first adventure together accidentally go to the same place and time one of the previous doctors were in, saving the place and people from some historical disaster... it would be so much fun the new companions trying to save the same people, not listening to doctor and doctor not wanting to ruin their first adventure together, not telling them there’s actually old him/her here so they don’t have to explain about regenerations but still trying to stop the new companion from actually making it harder for the old doc and companion to save the day...

Warnings; smut, oral (male receiving), sub!spencer, praise, slight degradation 
a/n; LMAO im so sorry for disappearing again life has been actually kicking my ass but anyways lately i’ve been thinking about subby early season spence so here we go,, hope you enjoy!
Tumblr media
***
Another Friday night and the team was out bar crawling after an easy case. But this time all members were there as it reached 11pm which was rare. Usually Hotch and JJ would have been home by 10:30 and Spencer wouldn’t have been there at all. But there was something light in the air which had all parties concerned sitting packed in a booth, laughing after each sip of their drinks. 
Since it wasn’t your first rodeo together you knew how the night went. It started off with Rossi offering to buy the first few rounds, always whiskey but he made an exception for Penelope. Then again who would deny her anything. 
Once the drinks were flowing and lips got a little loose, the questions would start popping in at the top of your heads. However these were not your run of the mill, ‘hows so and so doing?’ ‘done your taxes yet?’ oh no. The name of the game was discuss where you would all think of a question which would help you dig just a tiny bit deeper into your coworkers sex lives. 
Maybe if you were all sober then you’d avoid thinking of each other in such positions, pun intended, yet in this state your prying minds were open and your stomachs were ready to grow abs from bending over in laughter. 
You raised the margarita glass up clinking it with a fork to get the tables attention. Everyone including Aaron had a smile on their face, ready to hear the intrusive question for the night. 
“Ok my fellow profilers, doctor, and tech genius,” you added pointing at Spencer then Pen, “Do you kiss your partner after they give you head? Discuss!” you finished in your most formal voice. 
Right as you took a swig of your drink the mixed responses of yes and no filled your small space. 
“Why wouldn’t you? You guys especially, if someones willingly trying to swallow then you damn well owe them a kiss,” Emily finished earning nods and ‘exactly’s from JJ, Pen, and yourself. 
“Ok but thats weird. I just can’t explain it but its a no go for me,” Morgan finished. This only gained him a scoff and raised voices, “Hotch man help me out here,” he said looking over to the man hiding his smirk behind the amber liquid. 
“I have to agree with the ladies here Derek,” he said curtly. 
The girls yelped and hooted at Hotch for siding with them while Morgan sat with his arms crossed being the singular person left out as even Rossi agreed. Meanwhile you noticed the presence next to you had shrunk back and wasn’t too active in the conversation. 
“So Spence do you kiss your partner after they,” you trailed off shaking your fist by your cheek and poking your tongue in the side. 
He coughed as he instantly sat up quicker. Even under the dim lights of the bar you could still see the blush creeping up from his neck to his ears and the slightest tint on his cheeks. 
“Oh I uh- I never-” he said looking anywhere but your eyes. 
“You don’t kiss them?” you said raising your brows. 
“No! I-i mean yes. I would I think b-but I haven’t had the chance to actually partake in such.. activities,” he finished finally taking a look into your eyes. 
You could tell he was waiting for you to laugh in his face for being so inexperienced but you felt far from it. If anything you wished you could be the one to show him things. 
That sweet boy had you wrapped around his finger and he didn’t even know it. Maybe it was his naivety considering how exceptionally smart he was. Or maybe it was the cute sweater vests he wore and now he nervously tucked his hair behind his ears. All you knew was that you wanted Spencer Reid and tonight was your night to make it happen. 
You hummed taking in the information, “Well that’s not a bad thing Spence. Everything takes time,” you said putting your hand on his arm for comfort and giving him a smile. 
Going to turn back to face the table you almost didn’t hear Spencer go to speak again, “Do you?” 
Got him.
“Why don’t you find out pretty boy,” you said with a wink as you downed the rest of your marg. In the corner of your eye you could see Spencer shifting in his seat, subtly moving his bag to cover the slowly growing tent in his slacks. 
As the night went by you couldn’t help but really give him a show. You had popped open a button or two on the long sleeve you had on, since it was getting stuffy in the booth. Though when you leaned forward and jutted your chest out, the soft inhale of a breath from the man next to you was just serving as motivation to get bolder. 
For the last hour you called it quits on the alcohol and drank a few glasses of water before you drove home. Spencer had been uncharacteristically quiet ever since your little interactions. 
The team had all gotten up to say their goodbyes. Rossi going by and giving everyone a kiss on each cheek. Derek having to quite literally rangle Penelope from talking to passing by groups on their way out. Then there were two. 
You turned to the side where Spencer was nursing on his coke, “Hey pretty boy, it’s late, let me give you a ride home,” you said grabbing your belongings. 
“Y-yeah ok. Thanks Y/n,” he said getting up. You’d noticed how he still had the burnt orange bag over his crotch. He couldn’t still be hard could he? Well you’d love to find out. 
As gentlemanly as he was, Spencer opened the door for you to exit the building first. The whip of fresh night air cooling on your exposed chest and legs under your skirt. 
You unlocked your car and stepped in, Spencer waiting to hear the little beep signaling his side was open. As he sat down you heard him let out a little whimper. Your head shot over to look at him, you could tell from the flush on his cheeks he didn’t mean to let the noise out. 
Holding in your chuckle you started the ignition and pulled out of the lot, “Can I put on some music?” 
“Yeah I don’t mind,” he said looking over at you with his lips in a line. If it was anyone else, they’d probably think he was uncomfortable but you loved his tiny awkward smiles. 
The ride to his apartment was mostly silent besides a rare quip from Spencer about paper work or fact about an older building you had passed by. It fascinated you to no end hearing him talk. Spencer was a hand speaker, meaning he always used his hands waving them around and making gestures. The pale digits had you captivated. Probably a driving hazard but you couldn’t help but let your mind wander. 
You pulled up into one of the visitor spots and put the car in park. You looked over to see Spencer almost contemplating something. You’d seen the look on his face before when he was looking over puzzles. 
“Somethin on your mind Doc?” you said with a small smile. As cute as he looked when he was nervous, you’d never want him to feel uncomfortable around you. 
“Would you-,” he cleared his throat, “Wo- Would you maybe want to c-come inside?” 
“Of course Spence I’d love to,” you finished with a reassuring nod. 
As he led you upstairs you were giddy with anticipation. So what if nothing happened. He was your friend first and you were glad he was letting you into his personal space. Even if you wanted nothing more than to have him writhi-
“Y/n?” 
The door closing snapped you out of your thoughts. You didn’t even realize you were in his living room. The dark green walls and shelves bursting with books put a grin on your face, “Sorry Doc, just caught up in my thoughts. What did you say hun?” 
His brows practically raised to his hairline from hearing the pet name. While he was used to the names coming from Garcia they took a whole different light coming from your lips. 
“I was asking if you wanted water or something,” he said fiddling with the keys in his hands. Eyes darting everywhere but your face so you wouldn’t be able to see the flush rising on his cheeks. 
“No I’m fine thanks for asking though,” you said taking a seat on the worn leather couch. 
You reached for the tv remote making a face at Spencer to ask for permission. He nodded and you settled back turning on an old sitcom that played late at night. 
As the episode ended you both sat in silence. Again you didn’t mind but you could practically hear the cogs moving in Spencer’s brain. 
You were about to speak when he cut you off before you could even get a word out, “What did you mean by ‘why don’t you find out’.”
Gaining confidence you moved closer to where he was on the couch, slow enough for him to stop you in case he wanted to back out. 
“Well you have options pretty boy,” you said moving a leg to straddle him. Your hands instinctively going to his brown locks. You could’ve sworn you heard a little moan leave his chapped lips. Noted. 
“W-what are the options,” lust blown eyes looked up to yours. 
“One, you can put that mouth to good use on me,” you said trailing your finger over his bottom lip, “and let me cum over that pretty face.” 
His eyes shut hearing your words and you weren’t having it, “Nuh uh eyes on me honey,” instantly they were back on yours. 
“Or number two. I can suck you off and let you cum down my throat, but,” you paused making sure to roll your hips on his growing length, “ you have to give me a nice big smooch after.” 
The hands on your hips pulled you closer as he bucked his hips into you as you finished the sentence. It was clear which option was preferred. 
You moved to slide down in between his legs. You let your hands trail down his clothed thighs, causing him to jump. 
“Tsk such a needy boy,” you said mockingly, “Am I not going fast enough baby?”
“Please Y/n,” he all but whimpered. It was like music to your ears. 
Your hands went to his belt, looking up in his eyes for a final sign of permission. Once he nodded you quickly undid it and he lifted his hips to help get his pants down. You palmed him over his boxers, feeling the wet patch where he was already leaking pre cum. 
“Is this all for me Spence? Does the thought of my lips around you make you this hard,” you said taking him out of the striped confines. 
“Oh god please just,” he cut himself off. You could see his hands curling fists besides his legs. 
“Please what baby? I can’t give you anything unless you ask.” Your hands continued their task of leisurely stroking his length. 
“Fuck please put your mouth on me,” he rushed out, hips bucking to prove his point. 
The answer was good enough for you so you wasted no time in leaning forward and taking him in your mouth. Both of you let out content sighs as you tried to take him further. 
You looked up to see him with his head leaned back, eyes scrunched closes in pleasure. 
You pulled off with a pop, letting your hand work him over. “Better keep those pretty eyes on me before I decide you can’t finish.”
He looked down with a flash of worry, that was quickly replaced by a loud moan as you spit down on his cock before taking him in your mouth again. 
For a germaphobe, Spencer loved how nasty it was. He was thanking god or whatever higher being there was for giving him his eidetic memory because the sight below him was something he’d never wanna forget. 
Your eyes were teary and you had spit dribbling down your chin but he wanted nothing more than to give you more than just a kiss after you finished. Or well after he finishes. 
You could tell he was close by the way he was throbbing on your tongue. Again taking him out of your mouth you used both hands to jerk him off. 
“You’re doing such a good job baby. So good for me. You wanna cum in my mouth pretty boy?”
“God Y/n I’m so close please please please,” he whimpered out. 
“Cum for me baby, be my good boy Spence,”  you said before taking him down your throat. He was big, not girthy but long and it was a struggle but you’d be damned if you didn’t try to take him all. 
Hollowing your cheeks you bobbed your head quickly, egging on his release further. His hands finally found a place in the back of your head. Pushing you down further as he came. 
“F-fuck Y/n I’m gonna”
His moans and whines were a symphony of sounds you’d have on repeat in your head forever. 
You swallowed the salty release but before you could even wipe your lips you were being pulled up by Spencer placing his lips on yours. You moaned into the kiss, his hands gripped the sides of your face not wanting to let you go. 
The need for air made you both pull back. You looked at one another, chests heaving and looking like you ran a marathon. 
Then a sad look came across his face. 
“Spencer what’s wrong?” 
“You didn’t get any pleasure,” he said looking like a hurt puppy. Oh your sweet boy. 
“It’s ok baby, I can take care of myself,” you tried to shrug off.
He was quick to push you back on the couch, taking the spot you were previously in. His warm lips trailing down your exposed thighs. 
“I wanna do it, but only if you kiss me after.”

Hiiii maybe LL!Ren for the character headcannon thing?
hey!! yes!! im really glad i get to talk abt ren bc he lives in my head rent free At All Times :) ty very much for requesting him
Realistic: While Ren did want to win, i mean thats kind of the whole point of the game, he never was truly passionate about it? Like, he saw how it was a hollow victory last season and being a natural two lifer, he didn't see his chances as too great. The driving force for making alliances and gearing up was mostly survival instinct. He would try, of course, but he woudn't go as far as betraying allies or doing anything else crazy like that, this game wasn't worth it.
Well, he used to think so. But BigB saying that if they win, a part of his queen wins with them? That stuck with him, for some reason. He is willing to go far futher, now. A far lot futher.
He needs to win, after all.
Funny: He still is very much a werewolf, but he does not transform on full moons (bc server power supression, regulation to make the game more fair etc. etc. whatever, he just naturally is a bit dogboy anyways). Instead, he just kinda,, goes crazy goes stupid? think this post without the transforming basically.
Tumblr media
It is especially incredibly inconvinient as this is Very Likely To Happen during the mysterious and very important meetings with Martyn/the Shadows. Sometimes this just makes him get into their weeb roleplay even more, more likely than not it ends up with furniture being nibbled on and everybody else incredibly tired with how much affection he demands. Usually Martyn has to console him bc he is very embarrassed afterwards. This is a routine they have developed in Dogwards. They Are Used To This.
(And yes, this is the reason he set himself on fire and we didnt see it in his episode. Fuck You if that wasnt even a full moon. It's also why Martyn insists on teaming with him afterwards, he clearly needs somebody)
Sad: He made a grave for his queen. Well, not a grave grave, her body is with the Joel and the other reds, and Ren doesn't think he even has half the claim to it as they do, but as close to closure as he could get. He gathered every trinked and item he could find that felt connected to her (I headcanon time to be much slower for them, so the recordings take a few days and there are days of down time between the recordings. You would be suprised how much Stuff piles up when you live with somebody for a few weeks) and burried it in the ashes of the fairy fort. Despite everything that happens late game, he always makes sure to go there and take care of it a bit, restore parts of the fairy fort maybe. He feels a bit silly, doing so in a death game, but he feels like its part of his duty to her. Like he owes it for not being able to protect her.
Canon who: OK SO this isnt entirely original, but!!!! do u know the post thats like "3rd life happend in a millisecond on the hermitcraft server, and when everybody returned they werent even sure it actually happend? and ren didnt even know if martyn actually exists?"
PLEASE if somebody knows where to find that post send it to me, its a banger and i wanna credit it properly
So take this and extend it to Last Life. Imagine Ren waking up after being killed, having watched first Lizzie, then BigB, then Martyn die, die, die. Imagine him opening his eyes in a panic, ready to scream for help from his allies, only to see... Doc? Looking concerned at him? Asking "Are you alright, man? You blanked out for a second there."
He is in a meeting. Doc looks expectantly at him to explain the new developments of the octagon. His whole life has just changed.
But it has been just a second. And every other second that passes, his memory gets more blurry. Did he really imagine that? Was he going crazy? Did he make them up? Make up three whole new people important to him? After all, most of the other players in that game had been hermits, except the ones closest to him, for some reason.
But no matter how much time passed, he could clearly remember their faces, and you know how they say that you can't make a new face up in a dream? He hung onto that.
Weeks later, and he doesn't remember why, but he metioned it to Pearl. And she told him about a little server she was on once called Evo, and that she had known Martyn and BigB there. She admits not knowing where they are now, but it is enough to make Ren determined to find them.
She also mentions another server, one she still frequents today, and while it doesn't usually have visitors, she promises to arrange something.
Time passes again, then Ren finds both Gem and Pearl at his front door and they take him on a journey to a world of empires.
It's where he gets to see his queen again, and this time, she is more royal then she has ever been before.

Grif
For the character ask! Sorry this took me a while, I can't copy and paste on mobile, so I waited till I got on desktop tumblr! Thank you so much for asking about him, I could go on forever lol so this is gonna be fucking LONG. Please, anyone, feel free to ask about any other character, too. These are fun.
Why I like them: Grif is, for lack of a better word, complex. On one hand, it's like, okay he's just a funny comedy character. But on the other hand, he's like every all of my favorite archetypes of a character. He's crafty but stupid, selfish but selfless, antisocial but friendly, the straight man but the dramatic guy, he's snarky but oddly caring: the reluctant hero. It's kind of paradoxical, and I feel like not only do I relate to him, but I just really enjoy him overall. Whether it's because he's a good brother, being a complete dickbag because he doesn't know how to handle emotions, being a complete cynic on the battlefield, or being hyperactive and snappy, it's just... ah. He. Everything in his life just happens, and he has to deal with it, and yeah he'll kick and pout and probably eat everything but in the end, he's gonna choose his family and he cares deeply... even when he can't really show it.
Why I don’t: I see this a lot in myself too - the fact that he's impulsive and inherently negative when he speaks specifically. his words don't match his actions. He often doesn't hesitate when it comes to making negative comments because they are easier than saying something nice, but what his intentions are are completely different. in other words, he's a jerk, lol. Especially in season 15. I know people felt bad for him because he was partially right and went insane on Iris, but he lowkey deserved it. He said he hated his friends, and even his closest friend. He didn't want to admit that he was a good person just because he didn't want to help. yeah, it was valid, but he needs to learn how to make a case without fucking everyone emotionally and being so clammed up. >:/ sometimes it feels like he regresses in character, as much as he's matured. i guess that's realistic and just the writers making comedy, but also the way he handles Doc specifically irks me. so mean spirited for no reason, as funny as it is.
Favorite episode (scene if movie): OH MY GOD, okay, literally, every single episode with Grif starring as a main is fucking gold. I think for this I'm going to say, uh, This One Goes to Eleven. Even though it's not Grif-centric, it's the episode that's my favorite overall because it introduced me to RvB and made me like Grif right away, simply because he was attacked so much and I felt so bad for him. Another great one that sticks out right now in my sleep deprived state, is Grif does a Rescue. Augh. And the episode where Grif and Simmons get stuck underground in the caves.
Favorite season/movie: Season 8 (shotgun!!!, hyperactive ai grif), Season 11 (hanging in the canyon with simmons), Season 4 (the tank and blue simmons w/ grif), Season 5/6 (kai and rat's nest), Season 12/13 (the recruits, grif building the snowmen), Season 14 (backstory with simmons, Room Zero), Season 15 (you know why)
Favorite line: OK, don't make me choose. There are SO many that are good!!! I think one of my most favorite things that Grif says is "yoink!" It's so adorable! I also really enjoy "BLUEEE TEAAAAM SUCKKKKKS" with his epsilon double, the whole "invisible nap" scene, "what are we, on a date?"/"I can tell you what we weren't doing", "no one made me, I made me", "WERE GONNA FUCKING DIE" when charging at the meta, "that's a figure of speech?" [when carolina says im so hungry i could eat a horse is a figure of speech], "dexta grif he who shall not be messed with!"... I'm sure I'm missing a lot, he has SO many snarky funny lines, but these are some off the top of my head.
Favorite outfit: LOL THIS IS SUCH A FUNNY QUESTION BECAUSE THIS IS RVB. HAHAHA. Uh. Season 6 probably. I just like Halo 3 Graphics. Also s14 Room Zero because THEY DREW HIM FAT CANONICALLY. THANK YOU.
OTP: I'm with the majority of people in the fandom who like Grimmons! I think Grimmons is the only ship that I really vocally ship with my whole heart besides OC ships. I just very much enjoy their dynamic -- it's very angsty, dialogue full, intimate yet so unspoken. It's just a really good pair to write about and see the development of through canon. And, not to mention... season 15... hrk...
Brotp: I really REALLY want grif/tucker, grif/church, grif/locus BROTP. SO SO SO BAD. I've always seen grif and tucker as bros, grif and church are HILARIOUS together and we were ROBBED of more time together, and grif and locus are fucking adorable.
Head Canon: I have a lot of headcanons about Grif, but one of my favorite ones is that he has half-lidded eyes, like he's always sleepy. I also headcanon him as bisexual, though I think that is a popular headcanon!
Unpopular opinion: I dunno if I have super unpopular opinions about Grif... maybe that I think that his labryinth wasn't as bad as it seems at first? A lot of people seemed to think that though, yknow. Like if you look deeply into it, it's actually kinda fucked. But I feel like we should have gotten the Hawaii scene anyways. Hm. I also didn't like how they altered the canon so that Grif wasn't drafted. I think it does add something to his char that he chose to go, but I always really liked the aspect that Grif didn't control that, and yet he still did this on purpose. He was good on purpose.
A wish: A badass Grif carchase scene for the love of FUCK. We need to have him drive more stuff !!!!!!!!
An oh-god-please-dont-ever-happen: Have him betray the reds -- i think every other red has betrayed the team at some point. please god for the love of god dont do this to grif. it really adds and says something about his character that he doesn't ever betray his team.
5 words to best describe them: (eye roll) eh. fuck it.
My nickname for them: this isn't really my nickname, since I mostly just call him grif -- but 'gif'. It's cute, and my QPP came up with it! I also really like dex. augh

Well that was A LOT
"A Time for Hammers"
I knewww it was gonna be worse later if Carolina didn't tell wash there was something wrong with him
The stuff that Wash said about owning up to your mistakes... that was good. Focusing on what you do in the present instead of what you couldve done better in the past is SO hard sometimes
I loved everyone's introductions this episode, yunno the "im tucker, breaker of head boards!", I also loved how every except caboose got a sword lol
And caboose getting Genkins' golf club was fun 😂
Oh and also when they were suggesting hammer names and even Wash, Lopez and Atlus were joining in 😂😂
And the pink guy Donut did in fact steal the hammer!!
Honestly good for him. He should team up with Doc/omalley, they both deserve to be a little evil imo
Oohh and I wanted to mention...caboose saying "my brains fuzzy and I do good..." gave me feelings 🥺🥺 I hope he gets to talk about stuff with wash later. And if he doesn't I hope someone sends me a fic where he talks about stuff with wash later 😔
Final thought, kai's "yall need therapy" was just too accurate 😭😂

I LOVEH ER SO MUCH -FLAT TEAM STRUCTURE!!!!!!! (they're always lying about that but I love the continuity lol) -lots of the characteristics 13era flux era @blue and golden@ coloring in this one. -that's peggy? -psychic paper i missed you -some set design conventions should maybe be questioned. in this instance it makes it seem like mr. dr. jericho has an obsession with lamps lol -"not unless you play george eliot's rules. she allows them" flash headcanon: maybe the doc isn't just doing the same obnoxious namedropping as always maybe she just -knows that from wikipedia or "historical fan sites". -MADAM EXPLAIN YOURSELF -im flipping between liking eustacius and being very distrustful of eustacius -oh damn angel!clare. that's a cool effect. -vibes to the woman getting possesed by the dalek in that other special? recurrent theme? -shut up cop!yaz :l -"she's a ten year old girl, how much is there to know?" dslkff not inaccurate to how adults were back then. -they should take turns blinking....... -oh shit -too late. -floating canals of pasano -the aesthetics of bel's and vinder's story is so gooodddd. so expanded universe-y. -did-u-know: on neopets there was a special species of pet called lutari that you needed to downlaod a -phone game to buy. mind u this was way before smartphones and even this was before the blackberry. -in the end they released them to the public so they weren't that special anymore lol -climate change meta #29: water feature towns will be the first to go. -"life parthner" .... not to be an nmd but why not just say "husband"  or "partner" dskljf -this episode is so easy to follow compared to the rest so far. cant wait to for things to go batshit again lol -this space venitian guy is not trustworthy either. -haven' you people ever heard of CLOSING THE GODDAMN DOOR -this episode must have been very fun to film lol almost a stop motion film -jericho called her ridiculous but at least he did listen to her lol -not an episode for the frail of  jump-scares thirteen has chemistry with all the women -the tiny ping pong padel dslkfj -21st novemeber. -im noticing now that thirteen is always a lot less mean to temporal companions than her fixed ones. like -all the way to the tesla and ada episodes... i know we used to think it was mostly about her just bonding -with weird characters like her, but now i think it is not only that but also like... maybe something to do -with her only wanting to connect with this kind of, "one night stands", so to speak? and kind of -purposely sabotaging her relationship with the fam to avoid being hurt again (well ok that much is a known fact already dlkf). -who is clare though? where's my character building sdlkjf -oh clare dont worry abotu the dust tha happens to me all the time when i wake up from a long nap. -"when do you think it is?" "and there's a strong possibility that the angels sent her too, so she'll be worried" yaz is so smart!!!! -dan looking at chickens and being like "no dinosaurs" i see what u did there nerds lol -i suspected it as soon as we saw the old woman with the tombstones that she was peggy but now i -strongly suspect it -lol they did well casting this girl. fuck that's a great visual!!!! this is definetly a serial man. -"47 years of pain, Gerald" -it would have been cool if they did the angel more sketchy- the fire effect was f -ok but ldskfjsd ... the more they stretch this dumb ass "the image of an angel becomes an angel" rule the more ridiculous their lore becomes. even if it makes for fire effects is like... ok so like, what constitudes an "image" of an angel? if you take photographs and reproduce them, are they all angels? why havent -they taken over the earth then ksdljf seems very easy to do in the age of social media and viral images. and what if you just "think" about them like clare did??? why isnt the doctor making up angels all the time with how many encounters she's had with them????? -(i may or may not be biased against this... one of my least favorite monsters in the canon.... dlksjf) -why is jericho getting so much development and we still don't know the first thing about clare... i dont like it... -YESSSS OH MY GOD SHE'S GONNA DO THE CONTACT THING!!!! OH MY GODDDD that said i think this is the first time in the doctor's life they've ever asked permission to do it lmao. progress or just a random flux (ey) of common courstesy? -CONTACT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! -damn that's beautiful -... i really love thirteen. i love jodie. she's made some amazing scenes. pls dont let this next comment dispute that love .. ..  damn this "social distancing / greenscreen" acting does no do her favours sometimes dslkjfdkl -the mystery building in this episode has been really weak tbh. -OHHH SHITTT  THATS HER -"oh, praise the stars! ... the non-existent stars..." -ohhhh no.... -the passanger  "soul-feeing" mechanic reminds me of an anime i saw once but i cant pin point which one -sdlkfj -i love she -belle picking up her own companion lol -ENOUGH QUESTIONS, DAN -rip gerald and jan... they had it coming though lol -"i have a friend, and she'll sort this. she always does" oh no, yaz... honey... -this episode is really draining me lksdjf -the most appealing thing about jericho is his name -themes  IRL meta #40: there is something interesting here about he tv and like, attenion econmies, alienation and how it affects the phyche... and also "you are observed and that is my power over you" as the strenght of science... also isnt there something in quantum physics about "observation" literally affecting the thing it obeserves? so not only can they become images but they can create the images as well... ok. ok -did we really need 40 minutes of fluff just to get to the good part (The division questioning) dsklfj division uses "every moment".... hmm... -the way it switches to "division" and "the division" seems like a clue as well. like it's both organization and more like a natural phenomon. -this episode is really showing how under-baked the WA lore is to begin with. like the doctor is being so prejudiced against this rogue angel, but from what we supposedly know... they don't really act out of malice? they're more like animals in the time-savanah that unfortunately have a very painful way of feeding. but they don't have schemes of world domination or genocide or mass-lobotomization so it seems a bit weird that the doctor, on paper, would show no compassion for such creatures. but she has to act like that / be written like that because they're "supposed" to be "the monsters of doctor who(tm)" :/ ... it's all so against science-fiction principles for developing alien cultures / species... -also honestly this set up so silly. like sdlkfj. this weeping angel division-pedia kidnaps clare to blackmail -the doctor so she will help her stop the angels but like... it's the godamn doctor. she was gonna do that anyway dslkjf. the blackmailing was just unecessary. -"including the ones taken from you" another dark!variation of thirteenth's theme! #segunmoments -"sorry, threw a cup at you" -oh! i noticed those floor plans! good chekov's gun. -reverse the polarity of the neutron flow~*~*~ -"i think there  are angels in the walls here" "of course there are, why wouldnt there be"--- this feels like -the entire process for writting this episode (or any WA episode) -i kneeew itttt -that was maybe too obvious lol -ok so they can also transport by stone. sure. why not. let's just keep making hem more broken lol -im so tired of them trying to making us like this guy. is so transparent. -oh so thatt's why the plan was dumb lol. it was trapppp -this confrontation scene is a high time for Teh Scronché (tm) "You are recalled" HOLY SHIT FINALLY!! STUFF HAPPENING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! -AHHH -predictable yaz reaction is predictable sldkfjlskdf -damn, cool transformation sequence.   -omg CREDIT INTERRUPTIONS WHAT. -ok im just gonna say it.... space venetian's guy's acting... .. . not the strongest sdfjlkf -PARALLEL TO YAZ AND THIRTEEN GETTING SEPARATED TO THESE TWO BEING SEPARATED -those two are such nerds
well... it was overall a well-realized, visually stunning episode... but i was kinda bored the whole time :/ ... i think the reasons were that: a) the world of the town and clare didnt feel as "live in" or imainative as other ones we've seen in flux. and b) the lack of doctor o/ companion interactions set it down my stimations too. and c) it didnt really feel like a flux story? besides the little vignette with in space venice,  it could have been inserted any other season. all that said, the last 3 minutes almosssst made up for all of that sdkljf
_______________________________________________________________

AND WE ARE TIME." -I was at first kinda underwhelmed by their plan to use people as a power source bc from all aspects, electrically, chemically, etc. people must be a really shitty power source compared to so many other things. Howeverrr.... maybe this functions like Clara's leaf? you know, using the "potentiality" of teir futures that are taken from them? it's a bit of a watsonian explenation that probably isn't true (compared to the doylist one that was "the writers just wanted something that sounded evil" lol) but y'know, i think it could be cool to interpret it like that, mixing that bit of lore with this... -oh shi they were part of the flox all this time!! - OH THAT'S WHY IT'S CALLED THE DIVISION!!! (I thought it could have been something to do withthe space between atoms but this is super cool too) -THE DOCTOR GETTING DISTRACTED BY THE COOL SCIENCE ADKLJFDS -FUCKING TYPICAL.... i love them T_T -I was wondering about this!!! ever since the first episode it was so suspect that they never mentioned the multiverse when they talked about "the end of the universe". Aghh, I love this serial guys. It's been so clever in hinting things by suspectfully ignoring them. -oh no, the V-word...... -"what sort of virus?" "You"  LMAO SHE LOOKS SO OFFENDED I DIED -"You got out from division, and you couldn't leave the universe alone. You know, I blame myself a little but, mostly, I blame you. I thought you were managable. But I had to admit I what I always knew deep down. You'd never stop if you rediscovered what Division had done. I mean, morality... was always your flaw" "Morality is a strenght" fuck im so into this. peak who. quintessential who. essecential who. concentrated who JUICE. inject IT into my VEINS. -oh I guess flux wasn't a doctor fuck up after all lol god bless. -these guys are such good villains honestly...well, time lords as villains are the BEST, really. -'cause like you can see the logic/nuance on why they did this, their need for control and to ultimately preserve the unvierse (deep down the same drive the doctor and company follow), but it is their methods and lack of willingness to like... not try to mastermind the entirety of existence that is their downfall. there's a really cool social commentary/philosophical viewpoint in that. -I like how she even says "the TARDIS"  kind of disparingly lol almost making fun of the made-up acronym ldsjf -can't introduce the first female doctor without introducing her abusive mother. -cartmell would be proud -speaking back to the thing about "weirdly ignoring things in the script" but actually that turning out to be foreshawding... I think that's why this UNIT origin stuff is so damn satisfying sdlkfj 'cause not only is it cool in itself,  but it was *also* super suspect that after all the mythological work that's been done in the entire expanded universe of doctor who to show earthlings fighting back against threats and even seeing them before the doctor does (both UNIT and Torchwood constantly, plus sometimes old companions doing it) it was so suspect that this aspect wouldn't come up again in the apocalypse. - LETHBRIDGE STEWART!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! -"HE'S A SHOUTER, BUT HE'S VERY GOOD" -TARDIS!!!!!!!!!!!!  (are they referencing a particular story?) -"it does look... special" the shade lmao -"my god, general, you really are a fool" i like this guy now dkslfj so much shade in every sentence. -RIP. UNIT boss #1 -(their first boss dying foolishly~ like that tho... not be mean but... #onbrand) -oh, that's why it's called the grand serpent. -(Boreal in HDM vibes? lol) -the division probably uses and discards oods like this all the time... -i mean im loving this but... it does seem like a fairly complicated plan just to get the doctor in one place sdkljfdklsjf if the division is All That maybe they could have, idk lured her into a big cardboard box with some jammie dodgers on a string...? -(but maybe the point is that thid is all kind of irrational?) -THE MASTERRR!!!!!! dslkjf honestly this is all his fault. thank you master for this amazing serial. u did awesome sweet you can have that little murdering-of-all-of-gallifrey, as a treat <3 -climate change meta#3948: the timeless  child represents the mistreatment of refuges? (probably hinting at the child being lost as being the victim of something the division/the time lords might have done in the first place? maybe by warring war on a distant ancient galaxy?) -time lords are colonizers meta #43928390´+3498: "You took something that didn't belong to you" "(laughs) I *rescued* you" -"what if, what if, what if" "you denied my life!" "I gave you your life. Everythin you are is because of me." ............... oh no this hits too close home i dont like it. -hearing tecteum rn makes me feel like this -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y2INBe_qZFo but with an extra dash of abusive dynamics ldk -at the same time im like thirteen... shoving chibnall down a hill... screaming angstyly "SHOW ME THE RESSSST" -OMG ya'll im lossing my mind i looked up that scene (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VDsJaJiZmfY) to make the joke and was gobsmaked by the parallel....  "(...) that all I am is somehow because of you, and believe me when I say, I cannot *bear* that" /// "everything you are is because of *me*" -her face ): my heart :( -now tecteum is making fun of her profession seriously chibnall im seriously worried about your upbringing now bro SDLKJFdskljfkldsjfkl what did you have to go through to write this stuff -"what do you even do, doctor? when are you even getting married?" -i mean tecteum is wrong in her reading of the doctor's companions as their "experiments" that they "uses" for company,...  but i imagine it manages to tug a little at the doctor's conscience bc of how shit she's been to her friends lately sdfjfds so i'm sure even tho she says "we're not the same" (that's what u call.. ,. .. a pro abuser mood 💥🔥😎) -aside: the doctor is now even more of a ... like, quintessential "classic english literature" right? with this background of the poor street urchin that gets picked up and used by the shitty lower-tier family of nobles... it's all very Dickensonian lol -their actinggggggg. im feeling things. -passanger is really creepy in this scene. -ouch the green screen dlkfjs at least the design is nice though -"finally, someone with a gun" FDLKSJ i love her.

SPOILER FOR 4.01 AND POSSIBLE SPOLIERS FOR PROMO FOR 4.02. READ AT YOUR OWN RISK.
So now that I've slept on it (or tried to at least) I definitely think the Nicole in the Garden isn't our Nicole. I've seen a lot of people say something along the lines of "shes dead and shes gone to heaven". I'm not religious and I know this version is far from traditional but I don't think the Garden is supposed to be heaven?
Others have thought that Nicole may have fallen into a portal/door or something similar. While yeah, it's possible, feel like thats too simple. That whole part felt kind of like a red herring. We're supposed to think that Nicole's gotten into the Garden.
I stand by my previous theory of the Nicole in the Garden being another version of her. The books (I think they were books?) that Waverly had to choose from had names. While she was losing her memory by the campfire with Doc, it was Nicoles name she was repeating. So I think, if their memories are compromised, Waverly would pick the one that stood out most to her- Nicoles.
Another thing: the Nicole we see in the Garden is reminiscent of season 1 Nicole. Braid and all. When Waverly was trying to remember her, she mentioned the stetson, which we haven't seen Nicole wear since season one. I think that, if Waverly did choose Nicole's, the Garden is trying to figure out who would be best to convince Waverly to take the throne (or something along those lines) and using her remaining memories to conjure a version of her.
Furthermore, that promo for the next episode? It just doesn't seem like Nicole.
1. There's no way in hell that Nicole would just stand there with her tatas out while Doc looked on.
2. Reunion. While I know they wouldn't put a wayhaught reunion in the promo, from what we have seen it didn't seem right. I don't feel like Nicole would just stand there after worrying about Waverly so much. The "Its really you" and "who else would I be?" seems suspicious to me. Not to mention the "I have got to get out of this cage". I think whatever is feasting on blood is using Nicole's image.
3. Wayhaught. We see in the promo that Waverly takes the throne (or tries to) as Wynonna tries to stop her. If Nicole was really there I pretty sure she would be right beside Wynonna trying to stop her kind of fiancé from possibly turning to stone.
No. I think that Nicole fell into the basement, but not into a portal or to her death. There was a spoliery article last week (I don't remember which one) that mentioned both Nedley getting injured at the stairs AND Nicole getting hurt trying to open another portal. I think Nicole might find the portal before Wynonna does, but is possibly too injured to go through it- so instead stands guard with Rachel while Wynonna goes in (cuz you know- Zombies).
Edit 1:
In regards to Nicole's seemingly longer hair during the rest of the season- I've not really got a proper theory for it but atm I'm thinking something to do with time. Waverly said something in passing in the Garden. Something along the lines of "How long have we been here?" It might have just been a throw away line, but what if time does works differently there? We see that Wynonna ends up in there. What if when they get back out, they realise that time was moving slower there? It would possibly explain why- assuming still that the real Nicole is outside of the garden- Her hair may have grown with time.
Maybe the new portal that they find closes after Wynonna goes through it and Nicole has to find another one? Maybe she tries to find out where the government dudes took the rest of the town in the process? We know Jeremy gets all MIB wherever he is. Maybe he helps find another portal, or opens the old one. Who knows...
Edit 2:
Some folks have pointed out that in the story of Adam & Eve they were all nakie too. Maybe if the Garden created this version of Nicole, it wouldn't have known to put clothes on her?
Edit 3:
TWO DIFFERENT NICOLES.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
(I'm probably going to update this as I read other theories and try and connect things)
Gotta remember that this is Wynonna Earp. I don't think Emily and the writing team would have made things easy to figure out. Things are rarely as they seem on this show and they're definitely not straight forward.
Is it possible that Im over thinking? Absolutely. But what I know for sure? I've missed this show so fucking much. And the live tweets. I've missed it all.

Watching House as a Physician.  Season 2 Episode 3. Infectious diseases & Respiratory.
Welcome to another episode of medicine done badly.  I’ve been watching House on Amazon prime.  Got the subscription during the pandemic, as like everyone else, I’ve garnered an online shopping habit now. 
Alright. In the opening scene a young roof worker falls off the roof presumably due to acute shortness of breath. i.e. trouble breathing. (why do we use the term shortness of breath? it’s the english version of the greek term dyspnoea - the actual preferred language of Western doctors. Fuck do I know why we like Greek and Latin so much. Moving on.) Then cut to Dr. Cuddy examining him in the back of the ambulance. 
Tumblr media
This would never happen in real life. Yes you can be on the scene and handover to the paramedics or EMT when they arrive as a doctor. But they would take over. I personally wouldn’t have the balls to look after a patient in a different environment, different resources and field I’m not familiar with. You can have field Emergency docs - but requires different training. 
Also, ethically, you’re not meant to treat family or friends. Dr. Cuddy later in the episode gets a bit emotionally involved - this is why we don’t treat people close to us. We lose objectivity. We make mistakes. And you see later see Cuddy do some pretty bad ones. 
I feel like much of this episode is not really IM. THere’s less differential diagnoses being made. More side tracks into trauma, emergency, intensive care or vascular surgery. 
Anyhoo. Trauma and emergency would manage the fall and post fall traumatic injuries. And the trauma protocol was either not shown or completely off in this episode. Surgeons don’t seem to exist in House, at least not very much. Similarly, no other doctors exist except surgeons in Grey’s anatomy.  Also you can’t clear a C Spine clinically, which is what Dr. Cuddy does in the back of the ambulance. You’d need a CT first and clearance both radiological (by a radiologist) and a clinician. 
Aaaanddd, you can’t just listen to the chest and go no pneumothorax (air in lung or collapsed lung) - yes it’s reassuring, but again you’d need imaging to confirm this, given how serious a condition this is. It is realistic to consider in the setting of a fall, particularly if there are rib fractures that can puncture the lung.
Once the more critical injuries are managed, we would look after the IM side to things. 
So. Finally.. differential diagnoses.
Takes what seems and feels like days before they finally sit down and go through differentials. Really not much on that white board. Dark fingers, broken ribs, fever and lung infiltrates. Time line’s not clear on when he developed the fever.
Presenting complaint isn’t really addressed. It could be: - Dyspnoea, leading to the fall, he’s requiring O2 via nasal prongs, which suggests that he’s hypoxic (this is definitely odd in a young guy who’s normally very physical fit if he works as labourer). so much to unpack here, but they never get into this well.  Post fall, Cuddy notices his ring and pinky finger becoming dusky, which becomes very central in this episode. Very few things would cause this. pains me that they do no differentials on a white board for this alone. 
Tumblr media
Then a lot of throwing around medical terms. 
PTT prolonged and Fibrinogen off. These are markers of your coagulation pathway and signs that you’re not forming the clots the way you should if you have an injury.  DIC is also thrown around. What is DIC? Disseminated intravascular coagulopathy. Certainly severe sepsis and trauma can cause this and lead to severe bleeding. It will throw off your coagulation pathways (things that stop bleeding). It’s not common. I’ve treated it once, while I was rotating in ICU, it is not standard ward medicine practice. Standard therapy is fresh frozen plasma (FFP) and even large metropolitan hospitals only have a limited supply. It’s a huge concern for surgery and post-op (as you patient will just not stop bleeding after you cut them open, and if not treated, potentially bleed to death). Cuddy mentions ARDS. Acute respiratory distress syndrome, it could be a complication, but it’s not a cause. Again, falls more into the realm of critical care (a la ICU). However, patient had SOB prior to the fall. Finally HOuse makes the observation. of “what if he was sick before he had his run in with gravity...” Everyone jumps to Pneumonia. And this is where it gets confusing.  If he was unwell, the minute he entered the emergency department with a fever and hypoxia, they would have worked him up for any garden variety pneumonia, bacterial or viral. Cultures would have been sent and imaging. Any young hypoxic patient would prompt a closer look at the chest. And no one waits that long to start antibiotics - “sepsis kills” is a slogan often used around hospitals. You have to initiate empirical therapy within 30 mins, to reduce mortality and morbiditiy. 
Ordering an Echocardiogram (USS of the Heart) also makes no sense in the context of a lung infection. I would order one, but not to look at the lungs.
Then there’s the most unrealistic thing about this series. Doctors breaking into patient homes.
Tumblr media
It is however, a good way to showcase social history. It’d be boring to watch a doctor ask the patient outright about their living situation etc, but it’s far more interesting to see exactly how they live. We try as much as possible to illustrate to each other and ourselves what the living environment and working environment of our patients are like. 
In the context of infection, a good social history can point out exposure. As they exemplify by showing dead rodents and mould. This leads to 2 further differentials: Rat bite fever (caused by streptobacillus, something you’d see in the US, but probably not anywhere else), it’s an unrealistic differential in general. And the 2nd is aspergillosis.  Okay..  So aspergillus is a mould commonly found in our environment. In fact it’s everywhere around us. 
Tumblr media
THere’s few times when it’s an issue.  It is a concern in respiratory syndromes like asthma or bronchiectasis. And also as an opportunistic infection in immunocompromised individuals. in the context of asthma, it’s not so much the aspergillus itself that causes issue, it’s our body’s over reaction. It’s a hypersensitivity issue that causes inflammation in the lungs or a pneumonitis. We even gave it a name. Allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis. It’s still badness, but it doesn’t happen that quickly. We also have specific tests for this, which were obviously not considered in this episode of medicine done badly. In the immunocompromised host (steroid therapy in transplant patients or those on chemo, etc.), you can get the invasive mould as an opportunistic infection.  I don’t really understand why they think it would be the case here. Also, killing the bug with heavy duty anti fungals will only give more issues rather than do anything. They start him on amphotericin. this is not standard practice.  And now it flips to why amphotericin is not standard practice or first line treatment for invasive aspergillosis. The patient has now become anuric (not making any urine). (First line drug by the way is voraconazole, superior efficacy in trials with a lower mortality rate and ADRs) Also, note that they have just jumped straight to dire renal failure from the amphotericin. No work up. That said, heavy drugs like amphotericin are often a cause, but  It’s often temporary with the appropriate supportive measures (stop insulting agents, give hydration, monitor fluid balance), reversible, even if you require temporary dialysis or haemofiltration. Anyways, would get into AKI another day, that’s a whole other post in and of itself.  Then his hand is apparently “dying.” There’s pain on light touch, but it’s not a cold, pulseless limb. Or discoloured. doesn’t add up. This now enters vascular surgeon territory. Again. It’s interesting that there’s never any referrals to any other teams. If he has good circulation, I would imagine they would try to save the hand and consider other differentials. 
The only time I can think of an emergency amputation in this situation is necrotising fascitiis. That’s the only thing that would occur that rapidly  AND necessitate losing tissue or limb.  With a young person who’s this ill, there’s often multiple subspecialties involved by this point. I’m also surprised he’s not in ICU.
Then there’s a buncha filler scenes of the cast of house getting emotional. Ho my god, they’ve taken the hand of a young 20 something physical labourer. Indeed, this is badness. Unlike House, we actually are trained to always consider how a patient’s illness impacts their activities of daily living and livelihood. 
I find the general population assumes that we practice medicine in a vacuum, we merely treat the clinical illness and ignore everything else. They imagine that we all must be like house. 
Actually we try to put things in perspective as much as possible and knowing our limitations in this area, we often enlist the help of friends - physiotherapists, occupational therapists and social workers. They never exist on TV or on the movies. Ever. Unless it’s to portray how terrible it is to be a social worker.  From time to time in this episode, Cuddy laments that being chief of medicine is too administrative and she hasn’t been a doctor in years. That also doesn’t happen in real life. If you’re chief you’re still a doctor. You have admin shit to do deal with yes, but you still practice. It’s like being chief resident, in all the TV shows with one of these, you still seem them working as residents, be it scrubs or grey’s anatomy. 
Tumblr media
Back to the differential. They finally get to endocarditis. Culture negative to be precise. That indeed would explain the bilateral dusky fingers that led to unnecessary amputation. Septic emboli. 
Going to stop here, more out of exhaustion now. I’ve created quite a lengthy post. Happy to reblog thoughts on culture negative endocarditis on request later. This is a worthy topic to study up on for students or residents. At least review Duke’s criteria and think about your clinical features like Roth Spots and Janeway lesions or Ouch Osler’s nodes. 
The ending is also a far fetched connection to make, but is one that we would consider. In fact, we would ask in detail every time from day one - have you had any exposure to animals. It’s very rare to see someone so young be that sick out of the blue when you’re immunocompetent and have no underlying predisposing conditions. If there’s no focal source, then we would even ask about injectable recreational drugs, exotic travels, sexual health. 
Most of the time, patients that sick are honest to their doctors. 
But what about..
Tumblr media
Frankly, much as we lie as humans, when our lives our on the line, we’re generally pretty honest (sometimes too honest) with the people we want to save us. 
Any patient who is young and comes to hospital requiring inpatient admission, they’d be investigated by subspecialties with expertise in certain areas such as infectious disease. The dept of infectious disease would either be home team, or all over this patient as they special in the realm of both common and rare infectious diseases, culture negative endocarditis would have been considered before a hand amputation.
The term, “department of diagnostic medicine is laughable,” particularly when they consider it the only department in the world in the show. 
In actuality, it’s a department that is universal and exists everywhere. it’s Internal medicine. Dr. Vivek Murthy, the next surgeon general (and also the last one under Obama) is an internal medicine physician. Ken Jeong of Community and the Hangover fame is also a physician of internal medicine. 
Beginning to get the sense that most episodes are going to end with a diagnosis that is either infectious disease, rheumatology or haematology. But generally those tend to be most interesting and give the most plot twists or meaty differentials V.s. a stroke or acute myocardial infarction is fairly straightforward to diagnose. 
This is a very twisty episode in all the wrong directions. 
Dyspnoea is a very common presenting complaint. There’s a properly done approach to this in the podcast by the Curbsiders by the way.

Conversation between Quintis following Pregnancy Announcement after 3.07
H - I’m Pregnant
Toby relaxed in Cabe’s hold and stared at Happy, not quite believing what she had just said, first he found out she is married to Walter and if that secret wasn’t enough now she was dropping the bombshell she was pregnant. Toby just stood there staring at her as she looked back at him he could read nervousness, apprehension, fear in her face but also a tiny flicker of excitement.
C - Lets give these kids sometime to talk things through, if i let you go Doc are you gonna launch yourself at Walter again?
Toby just looked at Cabe and very slowly shook his head, Cabe slowly released his hold on him and nodded to the others who were all stood staring at Happy and Toby. Paige went to start to speak but no words came out and Cabe shook his head at her telling her to leave it. The team gathered their belongings and left the garage, Walter was the last to leave and turned back looking like to he was going to speak but he just stared, he did then speak
W - I’ll stay with Cabe tonight guys so take as much time as you need to talk things through here if you want
Toby suddenly snapped out of staring at Happy
T - so very kind of you Walt, give us chance to fix the mess you made. Its the lease you could do
H - Doc!
Walter just nodded and left shutting the door behind him quietly.
Happy looked at Toby, she wasn’t sure what reaction she was expecting, she was still processing the news herself but she had expected something but Toby just stood there staring not saying anything.
H - Come on Toby say something
Toby opened his mouth and then shut it again, obviously at a loss of what to say
H - Come on Doc, lets sit on the sofa and I will fill you in and then maybe you could say some words you are usually full of them
Toby just nodded and walked over to the sofa and sat down crossing his leg over his knee and resting his one arm along the back of the sofa and then rubbed his other hand across his face. Happy came and sat on the sofa with both her legs crossed facing Toby just close enough her knees where touching his leg.
H - right, well i guess i’ll start. I’ve been feeling sick the last week or so and then the last few morning I have been sick a few times, coupled with my period being 3 weeks late i knew something was up and then I remembered that day a couple of months back you know after girl with the heart problem, when we were on the hike we went on to stay awake and well you remember what happened in that secluded beach and we thought we would be ok but i guess we weren’t
Toby looked at Happy with the small smile on his face
T - How could I forget that day sweetheart, it’s when I decided I would spend the rest of my life trying to make you feel as good as i did on that day
Happy smiled at him and continued
H - well i took a pregnancy test this morning before work and well you know the rest. I’m not going to lie and tell you it wasn’t a shock and it’s the right time or i’m ready but the more it thought about it today the more I realized that a baby would be pretty amazing and he fact that it is yours makes it so much more special. 
Happy paused looking at Toby who had some colour back in his cheeks and wasn’t looking so spaced out anymore
H - I’m scared Toby I need to know we are ok and you are with me on this, I cant do this without you
Toby looked at Happy she looked so vulnerable a look he was not used to seeing on her, he was still so mad over the marriage with Walter but first of all he needed to reassure her he wasn’t going anywhere.
T - Listen Hap I love you, of course i’m with you 100%. It was such a shock especially after finding out about Walter. I just needed to few minutes to let it absorb. You will never be alone again even if we fight or i’m upset i would never leave you you don’t need to worry about that.
Happy leaned over and placed a gentle kiss on Toby’s lips
H - Thanks Doc
T - Look we have a lot to talk about, i need to find the best pregnancy papers and books to read though. My Gynae rotation was only short so we need to research whats happening to your body and our little bun in your oven is going to needs lots of care and extra nourishment to make sure we give him or her the best brain development possible, oh I know I read a study that playing classical music enhances their brain development let me download some on your phone so you can put it on your belly when you go to sleep
H - Doc calm down we have plenty of time to sort all this out im sure one night without listening to the works of Bach won’t do the baby any harm. Now I know we are good and you are on bored with the baby business we do need to talk about Walter
Toby scowled 
T - I suppose so, I can't believe you married Walter and kept it from me for years, how did I not pick up on this and how did Collins know
Happy sighed
H - look you know I love you and I will only say this once, I'm sorry I kept this from you but we couldn't risk it getting out and Walt losing his green card
T - I understand the risk Hap but when your in a relationship one which I thought was leading to marriage you don't keep secrets this big. It makes me worry what else your hiding or will hide especially as I couldn't read that you were keeping a secret. Maybe I'm not the world class behaviourist I think I am
H - first you know your an amazing Doctor you weren't looking for deception in me, my bad. Secondly I have no more big secrets and I promise you here and now there won't be any in the future. And thirdly Walter told Collins I wasn't aware he did until you mentioned it the other week trust me I ran him the riot act about that.
T - I need to know Happy is there any part of you that wants the marriage with Walt, I know you need a family but if you have any feelings like that towards him tell me now
H - are you freaking kidding me Doc, Walt is a mate nothing more, he's never seen me naked, never seen me cry, never seen how I doubt myself, doesn't know what it does to me when someone kisses me behind my ear, doesn't know what happened to me in the care home when I was 13 or what happened with my first boyfriend.... do you know who does or shall I go on
Toby held his hands up in defence
T - ok your right I'm sorry, I know Walts just a mate and nothing more. I'm still hurt though Hap howcelild you feel if you learnt I was already married
H - I episode be gutted but I would try to understand why
T - I am trying sweetie and I'm not pissed at you but Walt he knew how much it destroyed me the night I found out he was here and yet he never said anything
H - I asked him not too,I text him and told him it needed to come from me. How are we going to move on from this
T - We look at getting you divorced and we move on,cwe have our little bambino to think of now. I'm going to let this go my love for you is far stronger then any anger I felt.
H - Walters looked into it and is looking at his options. We haven't spent a night together all night since before you got kidnapped you always go home after we have sex, how do you feel about staying over tonight, doing some pregnancy research. I've missed waking up with you.
T - you are a softie really, I would love too and I'm sorry I've been distant lately its been a lot to process.
H - I get it but we need to move on so let's start now
Toby smiled at Happy and nodded, he then pulled her over to him running his hand through her hair and along her leg and pulled her in for a kiss.
Happy sighed into the kiss pulling Toby closer to her by grabbing his shirt and running her fingers along his stubble. She slowly pulled away and smiled she felt closer to him then she had for weeks.
H - come on Doc let's get out of here.

good morning love! (or afternoon for you hehe)
deku vs kacchan part 2 is my favorite ep of the entire series actually. i’ve watch that ep so many times as well it’s just perfect. i got into them when i watched that episode actually! the voice acting god..... literally shivers. now that i think about it it might even be my favorite anime ep of all time help. i just love how bakugou lets it all out and we get to see that side of him.. the insecure scared child he tries to hide. god i could ramble about it forever idk just love it. OH YOU WATCHED THE MOVE RIGHT AFTER? a scene with bakugou and todoroki is guaranteed a good time.. and they work so well together. haha that’s such a nice coincidence tho their dynamic is great in that movie even if it’s mostly kiribaku sjsksjk. what do you think about kiribaku btw?
RIGHT!!! at least we have a couple days to decide hihi.... paimon no longer emergency snack.. only seelie. 🥴 oooh? what kind of thing have you envisioned? (if you wanna share ofc!)
i’ve seen so many people mention that!! like one of the worst parts of the game is that in the higher level you get the less there are to do.. ssjksjdk at some point all you can do is grind domains and try to level up shdkdfhdj
LEVEL 40 INTO A LEVEL 70+ FIGHT ok that’s honestly hilariously brave doesn’t she like die right away 😔 oh yeah you’ll be leveling up Again soon *praying for you*... can’t believe they don’t keep the easy bosses anymore sjdkfh that’s so rude. this game is just grind grind grind. WE NEED A BENNY STORY SO BADLY. like imagine a story with him wanting to seek out diluc because he wants to learn how to fight from a master or something like that. i saw it in a comic and i can’t stop thinking about it 😭 all of them deserve stories!!! there’s so many ways they could make it happen pls mihoyo... chongyun x xingqiu story... <333
shfkjdskdjhf nope right now i’m playing with noelle as my main damage dealer, traveller, lisa and barbara actually. so i think i have a pretty good balance atm.. 2 long range 2 short range-ish. i usually trade out barbara for another character if i have to tho, hehe. that’s only combat though ^ benny is with me when we explore. mood is me having a 5 star and not even using her... i still need to think of ways qiqi could fit into the group yk. is your group still looking the same as before? ooooh if you could rank the elements what would your ranking look like?
172!!!!! that’s a bit short though when you said tall i thought like... 190 or something sjksjdxk. wait how tall are You?
oh i just meant like... people bashing others for spending too much money on the game vs those that bash people for not spending money and complaining that they don’t get 5 star etc? idk yt comments can be so ugly though so it’s a good thing that you don’t read them sjdjdjdkd
that’s super smart!!! you just follow along the plan and delete when you come to the part. must feel so satisfying too i imagine. haha, what little notes i have i put in the notes app and just check up on when i need to. sometimes i even forget they’re there shdkdhsks. my notes are filled with half-assed dialogue or random one words notes that don’t make any sense to me anymore.. nskdhddjdj
you’re right!! so you write at night? sometimes i just open docs on my phone and write a bit before i sleep and when i wake up it’s either a grammatical mess or just... super bad hskshd the brain is simply too tired to create anything shakespeareian
nooo i’ll def check these out and let you know what i think. i’ve seen halsey being in pretty much every klance playlist on spotify so i imagine she portrays their vibes pretty nicely. doesn’t she have a song she sings about being blue and red or something... shdjfhdj such a bad description but i see it being used in edits a lot. also now that i think of it melanie has a song called pacify her that i really like!! do you like it?
THATS SO CUTE YOU ARE A CRYBABY. 🥺 same here tbh i actually like crying sometimes... sjskdjdjd like you said it just feels nice to get it all out. i cry to almost movie or series or book i read i’m a super emotional person but i also think it adds to the experience? you feel more immersed in it that way.
RIGHT??? ITS SO BEAUTIFUL!!! and it’s our boys 😭 and they’re cuddling 😭 under the sun 😭 ssjdjdhdjdj 😭
can’t wait to hear from you again <3 yours, ma <3
good night! more like ahhah
:o!! that’s so legendary of them wow.. <33 and yeah honestly the voice acting is phenomenal.. and all the implications behind the fight too? bakugou finally opening up? midoriya understanding that what he needs is to fight him? ugh. kiribaku is fine! fhdsjfks my brain is so full of todobaku that any other ship is really just... in the background hfskjfs but i can appreciate the relationship they have! with kiri being the only one bakugou has really acknowledged and seeing as being on the same level, that iconic hand clasp when bakugou was being rescued... i have a kiribaku fic in my drafts but idk if i can ever get to it ahha. you like them a lot right?
ikkk also i didn’t know we had to wait until the very end to buy? i have more than enough to buy it rn but when i clicked it said ‘must explore area 14 first’ and i was just... bruh. AHAHAH. okay so in my mind it’s like.. chongyun at a funky angle we’re kinda looking up at him and his body is like bent down towards us fhsdkjs idk how to describe it but i can picture it very well but i also cannot put it to paper/screen. and then his clothes are just black instead of white! HAHAH. tho i kinda wanna see if i can draw a xiao first to offer up to the gacha gods hfsdjkfs (and if i can i’ll do a version w a dark outfit too for u hehe)
legitttt im literally just logging in and grinding the talent domains every day fhsdkjfhskfhjd there are some artifacts i want as well but the domain is literally SO difficult for me fuck.
i just go in and use her skill then heal a bit and switch right away fhsdkjfsd it going alright! and then i go ham with my other 3 charas and switch back to her to heal again fhskfjd. OMGGG that’s so cute please... i miss diluc too... come back!! i wish we had a way to replay the old quests even if we get nothing out of them like i just wanna experience it again ya know.
oooo! that’s pretty nice. hfskjd you could switch barbara out for qiqi! since she’s a healer as well. omg wait you have lumine right? so your combat team has no males? legendary 😩 we love fighting queens! ya! traveller, chongyun, xiangling, fischl. and then i switch depending on the domain/boss i’m gonna fight. hmm elements I think would go: anemo, cryo, electro, pyro, hydro, geo, dendro? LMAO i reckon if i had diluc tho pyro would be higher... i also almost forgot to add geo to that list lmaooooooo oops, hbu??
I JUST SAW THE LINK.... AAAAAAAAAAAAH!!! the bestest boys look how cute they’re sjdkfjdjjdd i’m obsessed. the picture where benny has his back turned sjdudjdjddnd stop. 🥺 they’re so neat. 🥺 also NO ARE YOU SERIOUS? that’s so upsetting are you gonna try it out nonetheless or do you think it’s too risky?
they’re SO neat!!! and bennett facing the other way was so fhskjfd yeah cute <3333333 I KNOWWW IM SO SAD :((( and no...... im not gonna try 😭😭😭 i told my brother about it too and he asked how many rolls i was at and i said 70 and he was straight up ‘you can’t try then’ and i was like ‘i know 😔😔’. @ xiao... i am giving up xingqiu rate up for you 😤😤😤😤 ugh i hope i can still get xingqiu in xiao’s banner tho even tho the chances will be shit. are you gonna roll ganyu’s banner?
FHSKJFSD NOOOOOO don’t tell me 172 is average for you wtf... (apparently the average male height in japan is 160cm! for reference ahah) and i myself am. one hundred and. fifty something cm hfsdjfhskjdfhskdjfhw9uehdsifhwsdkjfhsdkfhsd 😔 big sighs lmaoooooooo. how tall are you? (im assuming much taller 😔😔😔😔😔)
ooh notes app? nice ahaha. fhdkjfhskfsk hdthat’s the mood tho! if i don’t have my laptop with me i’ll write out everything on notes first then transfer to my laptop~
AHAHAH yeahhh i think mostly i do? bc during school times i’ll only write after i’m done with my work which = night time. for a while Peak writing time for me was like 1am lmfao but i do that in a like half-asleep half-conscious state so when i come back the next day at a “normal” time i run into the same issue as you fshdfkjshfs
she does!!! it’s called colours 😩 but i think the one i related to voltron most is control! there was this really good shiro edit with that song i still remember it to this day <3 yeah i do!!! i like most of melanie’s songs actually ahahah. i think my favourite for a while was show and tell~
it totally does!! like it’s satisfying as well you know... like the characters have gone through so much and you experienced that with them so it’s natural to get emotional about it. that reminds me, what kind of books do/did you read? did you read all Those YA novels ahah talking about crying has reminded me how i cried reading those..
<333 i wanna be there with them 😩 actually no i want to BE them 😩😩😩
eager for your response <33 love, c.r.

“Hello Stonehenge! who takes the pandorica, takes the universe. but bad news everyone, cause guess who? HA! You lot you're all whizzing about- its really very distracting. Could you all just stay still a minute because I AM TALKING. Question of the hour is, who's got the pandorica? Answer, I do. Next question, who's coming to take it from me? Come on, look at me! No plan. No backup. No weapons worth a damn. oh and something else, I don't have anything to lose. So, if you're sitting up there in your silly little spaceship with all your silly little guns and you've got any plans on taking the pandorica tonight... just remember who's standing in your way. remember ever black day I ever stopped you and then- AND THEN- do the smart thing... let somebody else try first.”

I have no work so pre-NaNo ramblings under the jump as I try to sort out if I’m starting anything new for it, feel free to click through or ignore entirely. 
All fic, because I have no idea what Im doing with any original stuff right now. Most of it is TUA fic. Because I am currently Having An Obsession.
- Speaking of Having An Obsession, primary goal is definitely to get turpentine and patches (the pre-S1, “Diego and Vanya and pregnancy and dealing with trauma by being determined to be better parents than Reginald and finding something else to live for, technically a kidfic I guess even though it probably ends right before or right after the kid if born” fic) finished. Or close to it? Just... to work on it. 
(I’m stalled right now because I’ve written through what my brain termed The First Part, and I have an idea for The Third Or Fourth-ish Part, but need to figure out what The Second Part is going to be in a way that’s interesting to write about. Right now in my head it’s just “?????? Dealing? Somewhere in here we deal with the Question of Doctors, but not The Question of Medication, they need to be closer for that. also in here is where Diego effectively moves in even if they don’t really register that fact til later.” I may write the attached one-shot to The Third-ish Part in my head first, see where the emotional states land, and write towards that? That might work. Or maybe I’ll just put Braille on repeat and go to town.)
But I am not Proper NaNoing -- for one thing I don’t think the above is going to be 50k, especially not on top of the ~7k I have already? I could be wrong, but we’ll see. So other thoughts:
- I would like to get some more words on the Allison-is-born-in-Night-Vale story(/ies) done, because right now that exists as a decontextualized collection of paragraphs, some from the base fic, some from the series of spin-offs where she meets the various Hargreeves (mostly the one where Luther starts getting her show on the moon and falls in love with her from afar). And it’s just fun. I think I need a WTNV refresher, so I may make a point of listening to some of my favorites this week. It’s also good Halloween noise and I can work to it, so.
(Should not just listen to Desert Bluffs episodes. But may do some of those too. Because I love Kevin more than is probably healthy for me. One day I’ll go as Kevin for a con somewhere and have way too much fun.)
- I appear to have lost the bare: a pop opera/TUA crossover file somewhere in my docs? I need to dig it out again and go back to that as well, but I need a refresher on what bits I have scrambled down, because I think that’s also pretty piecemeal.
- ..... I don’t have that much oomph for my other existing WIPs right now, which is dissapointing. Some part of me DOES want to turn the series of Abigail/63!Will ficlets into somethign more than A Series of Kinky Moments, but I don’t know what to do with that, so it’s probably not happening yet.
I may make an effort to work on the eldritch-Sigyn-time-loop fic though. Because I love it and i feel like it’s going to end up just languishing. Or maybe that will be my wind-up to NaNo, since I don’t know what to write lately?
- Things I’d like to start but need to do research for:
-- That fic where Abigail survives but is mute, the metaphor becomes text and in her lack of voice becoming text she finds a way to reclaim her voice and her power, because I still have STRONG FEELINGS about Abigail Hobbs apparently. Like. A lot of them. Like, it’s almost a problem, but not surprising.
However, to write it properly I’d really want to research throat wounds and healing, and I am A Chicken about gory images, so I have to figure out how to research it without risking running into pictures.
-- I ALSO need to research throat wounds and healing for the fic where Diego crash-lands into the 60s a couple of months after Allison, they’re assumed to be married, and they just kind of roll with it. Also, racism in the 60s, and specifically how it affects marriages that are different races but nobody involved is white? Because literally every source I found on my first go-round was only about interracial marriage when one part was. 
(That, or I need to throw up my hands and choose to declare this fic not reality complaint, but I feel like this one I should definitely at least TRY to research first. But goddammit I just want to write fake-married-and-worried-about-everyone-else turning into actual-relationship(-and-still-worrying) [and also somewhere it developed a plot where Diego tries to get into boxing because he has no ability to keep jobs and ends up running into Luther and possibly evolves into threesomes and also collecting their other siblings several months before Five shows up? I don’t know how but it did].)
- Shorter contenders if I need to find something else to think on for a bit include: 
-- The fic where Ben slowly becomes possessed by the Horror.
-- The series of AUs where each member of the Academy ended up being the last one left behind.
-- Luther viewing Vanya as their father’s left-hand team leader to his personal right-hand team leader and coming to her to keep her in the loop and ask advice, which eventually morphs as they get older into a habit of going to Vanya to confess everything he feels he’s done wrong and her giving him a kind of penance
... Do I even have anything else that’s not TUA left? I feel like I should but I Have A Fixation right now, it’s a problem. I need to go back to the Magicians and see if that creeps in. Or maybe something else, but this will work for NaNo, I think. altogether it’s definitely more than 50k, though I’m not planning to write it all at once this coming month, just, it’ll be easier if there’s a plan for me to look at while I’m going ‘but what do I wriiiiiiiite’ than if there’s nothing.
Not even sure I’m really going for 50k, but just. Writing in a Substantial Amount would be nice. For once I think I can do it! It’s been 14 fucking years since I’ve won (or even gone over 10k I believe)! So let’s see how it goes!
