Star I'm not nearly in as deep here as I was with some of your other interests that I ended up catching (throwback to my Jeremiah anon days), but I gotta say, you are making a CASE for Six. Look at him. How can anyone love him as much as he loves himself.
SIXIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 💖🌈💖🌈💖🌈
oh yes yes yes you are SO correct and i am delighted that the Six propaganda is spreading. just look at him 🥴💖
Six is an absolute explosion of a man...pompous, verbose, irascible. he's unpredictable and loud and a walking disaster magnet!!! but at the same time...he's sweet, and thoughtful, and has such marvellous wit and humour about him!!!! i'm honestly baffled that he's not often at the top of people's favourite Doctors list!! (although, if the server i'm a part of is any indication, every Doctor is someone's favourite 😉)
we all know how terribly Six, and by extension Colin Baker, were fucked over by the BBC during his tenure, and every day it breaks my heart. but the thing is, i'm very nearly at the end of watching Six's run...and i've thoroughly enjoyed every moment!! 🙈 perhaps a bit of a rocky start re: his unstable regeneration, trying to kill Peri, etc. but i honestly love this forthright, brash version of the Doctor. he feels distinctly more alien than some other incarnations, and is also a delight to watch because he's always on the edge of delivering an untenable amount of sass, or doing something ridiculous!! 😂💖
i'd say a lot of the gripes folks have about Six as a character get ironed out within a few episodes...and by that point it's much less to do with bad writing and more to do with someone not liking his characterisation!! yes, he's arrogant, over-the-top and confrontational...but that massive arrogance belies his persona as a tender aesthete who appreciates the beauty of the universe, as well as the individual spark of each person he meets 🥺💖
do keep your eyes open. you never know - Six did get me immediately, as many of my friends suspected. but perhaps Six will sit in your brain for a while and then devour you later 🙈💖
It is fucking criminal that the Doctor who looks like they got barfed on by a unicorn doesn't get any male companions with which he can have simmering homosexual tension.
Colin is such an angel, truly one of the kindest people I have ever met. He always playfully bellows my name whenever he sees me. 😆
Today I got a little emotional while talking about Nanny and he held my hand, especially when he read my letter. He loved his gifts I got him. Colin gave me some amazing advice too. 🥺
Thank you Colin, you are always my Doctor! 💙💙
Also say hi to Twinkle! Colin named him, therefore I have honoured him by giving Twinkle the surname Baker. 🥺🐘
Twinkle also has a X/Twitter account now! Feel free to follow! 💙
The worst thing Doctor Who ever did to me was make my fashion sense "sixth doctor chic"
At least I dress better than I did in middle and high school???? But I think every trans person dresses better than they did in middle and high school yk
I'm currently making my way through what I refer to as the 'Project' series (i.e. Project: Twilight, Project: Lazarus, etc) and when I tell you that I have Nimrod is one of the most disturbing villains I have ever come across I am not joking. Nimrod is what happens when the military gets hold of aliens, things they don't understand, things they think that they can use to their advantage. Nimrod's experiments are particularly disturbing, especially his experiments regarding regeneration (poor Sixie).
I just....I need a moment. Holy shit this is so dark and visceral. Amazing audios. I'm just speechless by how fucked up it gets.
