13: One of your favorite 80’s songs
oooh this ones a tough one since i dont generally vibe w 80s music in general lmfao (yes i couldnt stand the pompeii 80s remix </3)
spotify has informed me that i have exactly 7 songs in my 1.5k song library that were released in the 80s, a number which is in fact a wild overestimate as it lists one of them as being killer queen (released 1974) and another as being "pennsylvania 6-5000" (released...1940)
out of the remaining 5, my current favorite is definitely Why Can't I Be You? - The Cure for entirely un-hannibal-hyperfixation reasons (<- lying)

(Not) the only one
Pairing: Natsha Romanoff x Reader
sypnosis: You know you're not the only one.
Warnings: Cheating, alcohol and angst
A/n: This is just short and also based on the song 'I know I'm not the only one' by Sam Smith. Btw this is my first fic :)
Tumblr media
-----
You and Natasha have been married for 5 years, you met each other at a pub and the rest was history. Both of you were madly in love with each other but you notice that she's becoming more distant towards you. You never doubted her love before, but now, you always thought about her cheating, but she wouldn't do that right?
Your doubts were confirmed when you observed her, always hiding her phone whenever you're around, always coming home late at night, often fights and you know she's cheating on you since that day you hugged her and she smells like a different perfume.
The door opened and you saw Natasha going inside the bedroom, she was clearly drunk, you can smell it from where you were, you glanced at the clock and saw it was already 3 am. You know you needed to talk to her, but you also know that she isn't sober enough to answer your questions so you decided to just hold the conversation until tommorow.
-----
The sheets were cold and empty again, you know that she always got up before you do. You heart was aching to know that you'll have to confront her about cheating on you.
When you got downstairs, you saw her sitting in the kitchen drinking her morning coffee. It's too early to start a fight but you just don't like the feeling of you heart aching.
"Hi" she said
"Hi, did you know what time you came home last night?"
"Around... 10? you know that's time I get off work, right."
"I know, but you came home at 3 in the morning, Nat"
"Oh, I guess I was so caught up at work last night, I didn't even realise" she shrugged.
"You came home at 3 and drunk last night, do you remember that?"
"Were you really caught up in work or something else?!" your tone started to rise in irritation with her obvious lying
"What are you trying to say?!"
"I'm saying that maybe it isn't just about work anymore,"
"You're being crazy! are you implying that I'm cheating on you?!"
"Well how could I not? you always hide your phone, you always come home late and drunk!"
"You're ridiculous." Nat got up from the chair and walked up to the bedroom. You heard the lock clicking after she shut the door. You wiped you tears, you have to be strong for yourself, a part of you believes that maybe it isn't the way you think it is, but you can't be that stupid.
-----
Natasha came out of the bedroom in her work clothes and drove to work, you were left in the house feeling many things, from rage to sadness to feeling betrayed, how could she just throw 5 years of marriage just like that!
It was almost 10 any you decided to text her friend, Clint, he always know where Natasha was.
You: Hey Clint, I know it's getting late but I was just wondering if Natasha had already left work?
Clint: Oh Hey Y/n, Nat didn't go to work today, she told me she was sick, is everything okay?
You: Yeah. It's just she wasn't really home but I'll just text her. Thanks Clint.
You inhaled and exhaled so many times, trying to keep yourself calm. You really don't know what you did wrong, you loved Nat for many years but you really just aren't enough.
Natasha came home at 3 am again but she was a little bit sobber than last night. She sat on the bed and fiddled with her fingers.
"I'm sorry about this morning, I know I should've apologized to you earlier..."
"It's okay." You replied, but you know it's not, you just found out she lied to you and to her friend. You just lay in bed and turn away from her, you can't face her, you don't have the courage to do so, especially she smells like the perfume that has been stuck in your nostrils for months.
-----
It became an issue for the both of you, with the same topic in every fight, it hurts to know that she is definitely cheating but you know that you still love her and you still need her.
You followed Natasha outside and smiled and waved goodbye to her as she drives away from the house, you know she's not really going to work. Your smile instantly drops as she was far enough.
You walked back to the house and grabbed your keys, you needed to get away for a while to distract your heart.
Arriving at a store you quickly went and grabbed liquor on the shelf, you payed for it and drove to nowhere. She's probably screwing another girl while you're being miserable, and that sucks. You drink and drink until your vision becomes blurry, you drove home and that feeling was now gone for now.
You waited in bed until she arrives, you already know what to expect when she comes home but you still hoped for your wife. Natasha finally came in smiling and you smiled fakely to her, she kissed your cheeks and you both went to bed.
She doesn't know that you know she's been cheating on you or that you cry everyday because of her, she doesn't know your hurting but she doesn't need to know because you still love her and you'll try to still be with her even it meant her loving another.

Hiya! For the writers truth & dare ask game, I'd love to know about..
🕯️On a scale from 1 to 10, how much do you enjoy editing? Why is that?
🍄Share a headcanon for one of your favourite ships or pairings
❄️What's a dream theme/plot for a fic, and who would write it best? (also, which character would be involved)
🌿Give some advice on writer's block and low creativity (or energy⚡if you like)
🏜️What's your favourite type of comment to receive on your work?
🌸Do you have any pets? If you do, post some pictures of them
I'm btw planning on reading more Righting Reflex in the evening, I just really need to get at least one and a half more tasks done today for my portfolio. Sending you much love 💚🦎
Thank you, love!! This is way too long, so I will put it under a 'read more'
🕯️On a scale from 1 to 10, how much do you enjoy editing? Why is that?
Maybe a 3? Like, I don't hate it but I'm not too fond of it either. I enjoy reading what I have written more often than not and I like putting [GERMAN WORD] or [TBD - WRITE SMTH ABOUT XY] ever so often while writing, but I don't enjoy changing the story afterwards much. I rarely change big things, usually only a scene or two and a few expressions. That said, I have to read every scene like 15 times before posting to scour for errors - and I am certain I am missing so many anyway.
🍄Share a headcanon for one of your favourite ships or pairings
Okay, let's go with fugitive Doctor/River. (Did you expect this by any chance? ;) )
You know this bit:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
source
[ID: two gifs from The Husbands of River Song of River saying "Do you know who you remind me of? My second wife!". end ID]
People have been speculating that she is talking about 13, which I get, definitely. But I want to argue that it is the superior interpretation that she would be talking about the fugitive Doctor (or another incarnation the Doctor has forgotten about but where would be the fun in that?). For the following reasons:
Vibes. This is the important point. River says 12 reminds her of the wife, so they have to be alike-ish. And I feel like 12 and the fugitive Doctor have a certain similarity in their demeanour. I think a big thing is how they hold themselves upright, actually, but also the whole Danny calling 12 an officer when the fugitive Doctor actually is one. Also the underlying kindness both of them possess and the end-life-crisis. They both lose all of their companions (Clara, Bill and Nardole vs Karvanista, Gat and Lee - one lives on but they can never see them again/forget about them, the other two die (or that's what they believe at least) and it is their fault) and I would argue they both are thinking about not regenerating this time. (I reckon the fugitive Doctor does not have a choice though.)
Loss. See the last point. The Doctor loses everything in fotj. Give her her wife, at least, please. Let River bring her some love and companionship <3 13 loses a lot as well but she's got Yaz. Which also leads us to:
Thasmin. Like, you know, if River had been tangibly in the 13th Doctor's life in any way, thasmin would have kissed. 100%. They didn't, so River didn't marry 13, simple as that.
Timelines. River does not know about more faces of the Doctor and well, 13 is older than 12. Of course, she could lie to her and yes, River gets married a little carelessly, so she might have married some John Smith!13. But if she met the fugitive Doctor - who seems very different from the timelord she knows and has no recollection of the Doctor's life, it would be easy for her to draw the conclusion that the Doctor is just some other person going by that name. And the fugitive Doctor would forget about her, of course. There's also a good possibility, River isn't actually married to the Doctor but to Ruth.
Time, Doctor's side. Honestly, 13 just doesn't have enough time to get married to River. Am I still hoping we will get those two on screen (or audio) together? Of course! But 13 is kinda busy, most of the time we either see her with the fam (who don't know River, see lotsd) or very occupied with stuff (like apocalypses or prison).
So, yeah, headcanon: The fugitive Doctor is River's second wife.
(The first is Cleopatra, right? Like Idk if there is canon confirmation but it feels true.)
❄️What's a dream theme/plot for a fic, and who would write it best? (also, which character would be involved)
Okay, when I read this question, I thought I wouldn't have any idea. But I have. Several. Lets start. Fics I would will into existence if I could:
Full-length Little VVomen.
I know we won't get the movie, but I'll gladly take it as a novel fic. Just for an explanation: Little VVomen is a parody trailer for a crossover of Louisa May Alcott's Little Women and the horror movie VVitch (I assume, I don't actually know VVitch). And it is glorious. Just -
- If it's about a girl, make sure she's married by the end. - Does it have to be to a man?
lives in my head rent free. I want a full story of Jo March saying gay rights, writing spells and sacrificing innocent men, pretty please <3 And I really, really want to know what's up with the Sean!devil.
This is the trailer btw:
youtube
Anyone write this please? (If I could choose, I'd ask Sean and Sinead who wrote the trailer, but I fear, I am already stretching the definition of fic here and using the authors of the og trailer probably defeats the purpose of this question.)
2. Strax fairytale!! written by you :)
Strax as a fairytale protagonist is SUCH an inspired idea and I am hoping very much that you will get round to it some day. But I can't really tell you anything about that that you don't know better yourself.
Or, maybe, I can: I have become kinda enarmoured with the 'Strax as the faithful Johannes' idea, I have always adored that tale, mainly for the tragedy and extremely strong friendship theme. Like, it is so clear that the king's most important relationship is his friendship to his servant. The princess is lovely but they barely know each other, yet. And I think there is SO much potential to improve the abduction scene and the ending. So, yeah, I have been turning that around in my head a bit.
But no matter which tale you will pick, if you ever write a fic for him, I am sure I will absolutely love it!
(also, like, I could mention any of the fairytale ideas you have told me about, here)
3. Heather is an integral part of s10 by @marvellouspinecone
You remember that genius powerpoint Pine made, I assume? Wouldn't it be spectacular if someone wrote that as a fic for me to read? I would choose Pine as the author because she understands the vision best, of course. But, like, I am so grateful already that the powerpoint exists for me to read and dream about :)
(Hi, Pine, not sure you want to read the whole post, but you might see the tag. This is not a request, please don't understand it as such, because that would be incredibly impudent on my part. This is just fancy ideas of mine and a praise to your vision <3)
4. Tenteen is played by Jo Martin by DiscipleOfBrad
So, I actually enjoyed the 60th anniversary (at least wild blue yonder, that much very much had a premise of my type of dw ep) but I still believe we could have done better than bringing back dt for the umpteenth time. (Listen, he is lovely, don't get me wrong, and I liked '14' too, but just - )
I have written a post about why I think making the fugitive Doctor's face return would have been a more interesting choice and I would still love to read it as a fic.
I don't really care whether it would be a simple retelling of the three eps with her instead of tenteen or a completely different tale. I WOULD like to see Donna though (because can you imagine?? Also that scene where Donna just acts like she knows the Doctor all of a sudden? When the Doctor doesn't even really know herself but feels like she should?) and if we could spring for some Karvanista on top, that'd be ace <3
I would give this one to DiscipleOfBrad because I trust them to write a convincing fugitive Doctor. I really enjoyed her in The Cul-de-Sac (which btw I can highly recommend if you'd like some soft thasmin and an intriguing premise. There is a heavy side of whouffaldi, though, I'm not sure whether that is your thing?).
🌿Give some advice on writer's block and low creativity (or energy⚡if you like)
I feel like it always helps me to get myself into a 'I can't do anything else now anyway' situation? That's why trainrides are so good for writing. I just need to be in a situation where I can't take care of more pressing matters, so it won't feel overwhelming if I don't take care of them?
Like, I will rather scroll tumblr than work on my thesis but I won't write. But if I am away from wifi, I might not be able to work on the thesis anyway, so I will easier find the peace of mind (and hence energy and creativity) to write?
Idk maybe that's just me. Maybe it's not working at all either. Honestly, I don't quite know where energy, creativity or motivation to write come from. They just knock and then they're there.
🏜️What's your favourite type of comment to receive on your work?
Well, obviously, I adore long comments, who doesn't? But just saying 'long' feels both greedy and like cheating, so let's talk content.
I think, what excites me most in a comment is when I can sense the enthousiasm? It doesn't necessarily have to be for the content of my fic, I had someone write 'YOU MADE A CROSSOVER FOR THESE TWO FANDOMS?? THEY'RE MY FAVOURITE!!" and it made me smile for a day. Just, I write those things because I love the characters and themes and if someone shows that they share this passion? That's community, that's what we're searching for, isn't it?
But also I got a comment today that was just a bunch of predictions about the next chapter of my current fic and that felt amazing! Generally, when people notice things or I feel they have been paying attention, that is SO GOOD. That's probably also why we love long comments. I mean, generally, every second you spend reading the comment is gold, so the longer the comment the more seconds there are, but also a long comment will usually go into detail. Make predictions. Notice things. Talk about how they perceive the characters and why something made sense/surprised them. Quote your fic back to you. And like, all of that is so much fun. It's like reading your story again, remembering why you wrote it. It's the best feeling in the world.
I very dearly love comments.
🌸Do you have any pets? If you do, post some pictures of them
I don't 😭 The place where I live doesn't allow pets and besides, I am away a lot and not planning on staying in this town much longer anyway. So, yeah, it'd be difficult to have a pet. I really, really want to though. Preferably a cat but I'd be so happy with a dog as well. Or a turtle? Or bunny? Or a lizard? I think you could make me happy with almost any mammal and many types of reptiles <3 (not much into insects or fish though. And I feel weird about birds in cages.)

neeeed to pick your brain more about media. what other bands or artists are you like big big into . What movies, if any . Books obviously if you're a big reader . Sorry this ask is insane i think you're cool and am too impatient to just wait and listen to see what you talk about LMAO
YOU’RE SO REAL FOR THIS DW
I really love the cure tbh :3 specifically simon gallup but also a bit of robert smith as far as actually loving the band members, but their music is actually what got me into goth music / the goth subculture !! I have like 4 cure cds, my favorite album of theirs is disintegration, and my favorite songs of theirs are the lovecats/ lovesong/ plainsong
another big one of mine is bauhaus but I mainly just listen to them on mix rather than specific songs. their song “god in an alcove” permanently changed how I think when I’m high btw
honorable mentions are my chemical romance, the last days of jesus, horror vacui, the brickbats, and icp
as far as movies go, cowboys 2020 changed my brain chemistry. I don’t have much to say it’s just something to experience and have it sit in the back of your head for years
I do love to read but not as much since I finally recovered from my harry potter special interest 😭 my current favorite book is the picture of dorian gray, and currently I’m reading the brothers karamazov by fyodor dostoevsky
I also really love this one musical trilogy, in trousers, falsettoland, and march of the falsettos. it’s an amazing story that I think about constantly, especially about whizzer brown
and of course, homestuck, unfortunately

My AO3 account BTW guys and links to my stories! They're all Doctor Who fics.
1) My Past Come Home. My Future Lead The Way
Summary: “Right.” Rory finally seemed to react, shaking his head a little as his hands flailed for effect, “right sorry. So I’ve gone to sleep, got woken up by the TARDIS going crazy and now we’re in a future TARDIS with a future Doctor who’s also a woman? I’m getting this right?”
Characters:  13th Doctor, 11th Doctor, 12th Doctor, 10th Doctor, 9th Doctor, 8th Doctor, 7th Doctor, 6th Doctor, 5th Doctor, 4th Doctor, 3rd Doctor, 2nd Doctor, 1st Doctor, Yasmin Khan, Ryan Sinclair, Graham O'brien, Bill Potts, Nardole, River Song, Amy Pond, Rory Williams, Donna Noble, Rose Tyler, Jack Harkness, Lucie Miller, Ace, Peri Brown, Tegan Jovanka, Vislor Turlough, Sarah Jane Smith, Jo Grant, Jamie McCrimmin, Zoe Heriot, Ian Chesterton, Barbara Wright, Susan Foreman, The Master(Dhawan), The Master (Gomez) /Missy.
Chapters: 26/26
2) A Change of Mind
Summary: “What would your little friends think if they knew?”
“Who cares?” she scoffed with a roll of her eyes, “dropped them off at home. Good riddance as far as I’m concerned. This is between me and you. They were the Doctor’s ‘little friends’, not mine.”
“Who’re you then? If you’re not the Doctor.”
“Dunno yet,” she shrugged, seemingly pleased, however, that he was finally accepting that she wasn’t quite the Doctor, “I haven’t decided. You know,” she huffed out a heavy breath, “you’re wasting so much good running away time by asking all these questions. Maybe by the time I’ve caught you, you know, if you run away right now, I’ll have decided. Come on.”
><><><><
An alternate ending to my story 'My Past Come Home. My Future Lead The Way'. This will probably not make much sense if you haven't read that first if i'm honest. It's the alt ending where 13 becomes the Valeyard!
Characters: 13th Doctor(Valeyard), The Master(Dhawan), Yasmin Khan, Ryan Sinclair & Graham O’Brien.
Chapters: 2/2
3) Fear
Summary: “You think that I was some hard done by hero, like the Doctor?” the Not Doctor’s tone was taunting as she smirked at him, “You think they wiped my memory because of something they’d done?” she laughed suddenly, throwing her head back as though that was the most hilarious thing she’d ever heard. The Master’s hearts dropped to his stomach; he’d already put this much together but having it confirmed made him swallow nervously.
“So… why was your mind wiped?”
“Well, they couldn’t kill me. There’s no limit on my ability to regenerate. They couldn’t keep me trapped. No prison could hold me. But then they figured out a way to stop me. Ingenious actually, I will give them that. They simply caught me long enough to erase me, or they thought they had.”
Characters: 13th Doctor (Valeyard), the Master (Dhawan), Yasmin Khan, Ryan Sinclair, Graham O’Brien, River Song.
Sequel to A Change of Mind
4) Escape
Summary: “I know you said eyebrows Bill, but that’s just ridiculous!” The Doctor in the bowtie smirked as they all came to a stop across from one another, glancing from his future self to Bill who just rolled her eyes with a smile and a raised eyebrow.
“They were making up for lost time. Better to have too much than none at all.” The Eyebrows Doctor deadpanned and raised an impressive eyebrow of his own to his past self.
“Ugh!” the Doctor in the bowtie jerked back in clear offence, hand flying to his own eyebrows for a moment as his face scrunched up in annoyance to his future self, words stumbling around in his mouth as he tried to come up with a retort. “Shut up,”
Characters: 13th Doctor, 12th Doctor, 11th Doctor, 10th Doctor, Rose Tyler, Amy Pond, Rory Williams, Bill Potts, Yasmin Khan, Ryan Sinclair & Graham O'brien.
Chapters: 14/14
Part 1 of a series that will continued next week anyway 😂
5) Search
Summary: “Time Lord society was, as I was taught, created by three people. Rassilon, the great engineer, The Omega, the mind behind Gallifrey’s scientific advancements and-” she cut herself off suddenly, realisation dawning on her face and her entire body seemed to jolt with the force of the realisation that occurred to her, “Oh!”
“Doctor? What is-” Yaz started but she was quickly cut off by the Doctor who flapped her hands at her desperately.
“Yaz! I love you but shut up a minute. Let me think.” The human obediently fell quiet and they all watched as the Doctor began to pace suddenly, her eyes still wide before she dropped onto the steps leading further into the TARDIS, the realisation giving away to shock as she mumbled out her next words, “I’m the Other.”
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SEQUEL TO ESCAPE.
Now armed with the information that she knew Rassilon and Omega, back in the times of the Great Vampires, and even before, the Doctor knows what she must do. She needs to find Rassilon. She needs to find Omega. She needs to find out who she was and all it is that she forgot.
Characters: 13th Doctor, Yasmin Khan, Ryan Sinclair, Graham O’Brien, Rassilon, Omega.
Chapters: 10/?
6) This Is Where It Gets Complicated...
Summary: “Doctor!” He called out again, garnering a few looks from passers-by but he ignored them for now and began moving back the way they’d came, hoping to find either her or at least his grandson and Yaz if his initial search yielded no results, “Doctor?!”
“Oh hello! Hi? What is it?” Graham blinked, head turning at a male voice coming from his left and his frantic push through the crowds came to a stop as he looked at him, puzzled as to why he’d responded. The man was young looking, had dark hair that flopped over his face and looked as though he’d just stopped running his hands through it. He was dressed like someone three times his age in a tweed jacket and bowtie, but he pulled it off well enough, Graham supposed.
“Oh, sorry mate no. Not you, I’m looking for a friend of mine, they keep wandering off. The Doctor.” Graham didn’t stay still for longer than he needed to, waving the young man off as kindly as he could as he started walking again. He missed the slight grin that appeared on the guy’s face, but he definitely realised it when the man was suddenly at his side, helping him move through the crowds.
Characters: 13th Doctor, 11th Doctor, Yasmin Khan, Ryan Sinclair & Graham O'brien.
Chapters: 3/3 complete
7) Start Of Time
Summary:The Doctor falls from the TARDIS into Sheffield. But not in the 21st Century. Back in the 1970s where UNIT haven't been expecting their scientific adviser back after he regenerated and had his exile lifted. So who's this strange woman that's shown up talking about the TARDIS and searching for a Doctor?
An AU of The Woman Who Fell To Earth where the 13th Doctor gets tossed out in the 1970s and finds UNIT rather than her fam.
Characters: 13th Doctor, Brigadier Alistair Gordon Lethbridge Stewart, Mike Yates, John Benton.
Chapters: 4/?
8) The Chain
Summary: “Who am I?” he exclaimed indignantly, hands flying about everywhere as he spoke, his head turning to his two companions as if to look to them for back up in the indignation and then he spun back, “I’m the Doctor. So, who is it? Which one of you said that you were me?” They stared for another few seconds, all not knowing what to do before Graham reached out a hand and hit his fist twice against the large metal piping that ran up the side of the room and up through the ceiling above. It gave off loud metal clangs and he called upwards, his voice hesitant.
“Uh, Doc?” there was a thump and a curse from up above, the Doctor no doubt dropping something and her voice rang through, echoing through the metal chamber up above that she’d had to crawl into the look into the problem.
“What is it? I’m a bit busy.” The man in the bowtie paused suddenly, glancing upwards at the hole in the roof where the metal grating cover had at one point been sat. Now just a hole into masses of wiring and ventilation and mechanical shafts.
Characters: 13th Doctor, 11th Doctor, Amy Pond, Rory Williams, Yasmin Khan, Ryan Sinclair & Graham O'brien.
Chapters: 1/?
9) It Means The World
Summary: Then she realised the heavy silence that had followed her question. She found it strange, her conversation with Jo so far had been light hearted in nature so it was a big shift for it to suddenly feel like this. She looked away from the book shelf she’d been perusing through and back to Jo who was staring at her with sad, pity filled, eyes. The Doctor felt her hearts drop to her stomach and dread spread throughout her body at that expression. She knew it far too well.
“Doctor...” Jo started, her tone gentle, but the Doctor cut her off with a shake of her head.
“No.” The word came out whispered and Jo’s face only scrunched up further in guilt and pity.
Characters: 13th Doctor, Jo Grant, Yasmin Khan, Ryan Sinclair & Graham O'brien. Sarah Jane Smith (mentioned)
Chapters: 2/2 complete
10) 3rd Best Enemy
Summary: “Who is your greatest enemy?”
“The Daleks.” The words fell from her mouth before she could stop them and for a moment the room fell silent. The Fam all took clear obvious steps back as the Master whirled around to face her, his victorious grin giving way to clear offence. They were trapped in a truth field, not exactly like she could’ve lied to him if she’d tried. She did feel bad though, just a tiny bit, his ego might not be able to take this. She took a few steps to the left so she was between him and her friends and waited for him to splutter out a response finally.
Characters: 13th Doctor & The Master(Dhawan)
Complete
11) Can't Let Go
Summary: “I’m sorry I keep dragging you into my messes.” Jack’s gaze snaps back over to her, confused at her words, and even more confused at how she looks down at her feet. Her expression ashamed. She’s sat on the floor of this cell, one knee held against her chest by her arm, the other leg spread out in front of her. He frowns. He wonders for a second how the Doctor hasn’t figured out yet that he would follow her anywhere. Always has. Always will. He casts one last quick glance out the bars of the cell into the beautiful emptiness of space before he turns and moves until he can drop down next to her. Close enough that his arm almost brushes her shoulder but not enough to actually be touching.
Characters: 13th Doctor & Jack Harkness
Complete
12) Welcome Home
Summary:Instead of that though he reached for her face with one hand while the other slid around her comparatively smaller waist so he could tug her closer to him until her body was pressed up against the hard line of his body and his mouth was almost instantly on hers before she could even utter a greeting. She really should’ve seen this coming. She let him have this one, hands resting on his upper arms, as long as he didn’t push his luck. They hadn’t seen each other in a long while.
Eventually there was a loud, obvious, cough from across the console and they pulled apart, both turning to look at her Fam who were all staring at the pair with varying degrees of embarrassment or confusion.
Characters: 13th Doctor, Jack Harkness, Yasmin Khan, Ryan Sinclair & Graham O'brien.
Complete
13) Threatening to Stab? Not That Bad
Summary: “Threatening to stab someone isn’t actually stabbing them. There’s a difference.”
Characters: 12th Doctor, The Master(Gomez) / Missy & Nardole.

January 2020 Picks
Tumblr media
And we’re back!!! Been watching a lot of great stuff recently that I’m excited to chat about. These are just a few of highlights. I’m not 100% caught up on the Arrowverse shows yet, but did enjoy the Crisis a lot-especially after the second watch through. Check out my full review on that here: https://talesofafangirlwithadvr.tumblr.com/post/190372384413/crisis-on-infinite-earths-reactions
SPOILERS AHEAD!!
Tumblr media
ANNE WITH AN E
This 3rd season was my FAVORITE so far, which makes it even more depressing that this is the end. I watched it the fastest and even stayed up till 1 AM to finish the series after watching four straight episodes. (Normally I try to space out bingeing stuff because I don’t want it to end so fast.) This series has always taken liberties with the source material to make it even more relevant to today, but I especially felt that during this season. It did not feel forced one bit. From Bash losing Mary and overcoming being a minority in Avonlea to Ka’kwet’s story line that brings me to tears every time I think about it-especially because she made it ALL the way home just to be taken back. Would love to believe she’s back with her parents, but the ending this season doesn’t show it. Perhaps they were thinking about pursuing it more if there was a 4th season. Josie Pye’s assault was a nice commentary on the Me too movement as well as the Human Rights and Women’s Rights march. I’m so happy Matthew survived this series! I was so worried for him. (As readers know he dies at the end of Anne of Green Gables the novel. Most adaptations often keep it in and I am happy we diverted from the original this time.) Jerry and Diana were adorable at the start, but Jerry deserves so much more! (He got SO TALL! As I often remarked while watching this season.) I absolutely loved the boy craziness this season because they were “Now 16!” Tillie balancing two guys! Ruby’s crush on Moody was super cute. I loved when Anne was forced to ask Gilbert about having babies by the girls. THE STRONG FEMALE CHARACTERS!! (applause) 1) Mrs. Stacy: as a widower she will not settle for just anyone to marry. 2) Prissy Andrews: I really like that they brought her character back up and that she attended college. So sad that Billy will still be the head of her family. 3) Diana gets to go to Queens (a change from the novel as well, but one that was a great choice). I really liked her chat with Aunt Josephine. 4) Of course Anne Shirley. There’s so much to say about Anne, but one of the things I really liked this season was getting insight into her own personal family history. Seeing her mom’s book at the end was very touching. I love that she also had red hair. Last thoughts: Delphine is the CUTEST BABY EVER! Seriously a fantastic actress. Her relationship with every person in the show was amazing. And of course my beloved Shirbert. I knew they were endgame (because of the source material), but BOY did they take their time getting there). Screw Winnie! Anne and Gilbert’s relationship hurt my heart throughout it all, but so many adorable moments between them proving they are meant to be. Forever my OTP!      
Tumblr media Tumblr media
SANDITON
I am seriously feeling the period pieces this month (but then again when am I not). As a HUGE Jane Austen fan I was extremely excited when I heard that her unfinished novel, Sanditon, would be adapted for the TV screen. Because I was unfamiliar with the story (which is always a fun time when one of your favorite authors has been dead for the past few hundred years) I made sure to add the novel to the top of my 2020 list. Due to its length I was able to finish it before the series started a few weeks ago. While I was not a huge fan of the unfinished novel, because I found it difficult to connect with any of the characters or see where the story was headed, I already feel differently about the mini-series. By the end of episode 1 I was already hooked and very happy that PBS aired the second episode immediately afterwards. I can see parallels to Austen’s work as well as echoes to other Austen novels (naturally Pride and Prejudice). When listening to the Masterpiece podcast in which they interview Rose Williams (who plays Charlotte Heywood) she described Charlotte as a cross between Elizabeth Bennet and Catherine Morland (from Northanger Abbey), which I think is really accurate. I like how Charlotte goes to Sanditon because of her interest in seeing this place that Tom Parker gets so excited about. She honestly isn’t looking for a husband, but rather an occupation. Something different away from her farm. Is romance involved? You betcha. This is an Austen adaptation afterall. But that is not her main focus. There’s so many other things going on with the story, but I’d have to dedicate a complete other post to explain it all. I really feel it is fitting in well with other classic book to screen adaptations coming out right now like Little Women and Anne with an E. If you’re a fan of either one then Sanditon is worth a try. And of course if you love Jane Austen and the 1995 Andrew Davies adaptation (he’s producing this one as well) then it’s worth a shot! 
Tumblr media
THE MAN IN THE HIGH CASTLE-SEASON 4
Just like with Anne with an E, I think this was my favorite season of The Man in the High Castle (and ironically also the last season. Although this series knew that going in to production). It held my interest very well and I watched it faster than the previous season. I really don’t think I’ve been this invested since season 1. Lots of new characters were introduced and while I missed some of the old it just shows you how much this show has developed. I also felt myself liking the new characters really fast. At first all of the multi-verse stuff was pretty intense and a little hard to follow, but it got easier as the show went on-EXPECT FOR THE END! Were all those people coming through because their worlds were much worse? What happens next? How are the Smith children? Amy and the other students who were brainwashed-will they change? Kido will stay. Did Childan find Kikuko? (Loved their relationship btw. I’m going to believe they got to be together in the end. It will make me sleep easier.) I was constantly saying to myself: How are they going to wrap this up in only 4 episodes...3...2...etc.. But I feel like it could have been a bit stronger. Despite this I still am a big fan of this season. I just get picky when it comes to series finales.  
Tumblr media
DOCTOR WHO 
Last I had posted about Doctor Who I was very behind. Like I only watched last year’s holiday special this year behind. It was just tough for me to get into last season. I’ve really enjoyed Jodie Whitaker’s take on the Doctor. I feel she brings a new energy, but at the same time reminds me of the way Tennant and Smith portrayed the role. It’s just that I missed some of the familiarity of the show. It’s always hard getting a new Doctor because the show takes on a different feeling, but with all new villains, companions, TARDIS, etc it was tough. I wanted a couple more old references. I also didn’t love all of the episodes (although a bunch of them were really good: Rosa Parks, Demons of the Punjab, Kerblam! to name a few). So when I watched last year’s special at the beginning of the month I felt I zoned out a bit. However, Spyfall (parts 1 & 2) that kicked off this season were entertaining and I’ve been hearing good stuff about this season so far. Now that the show is on its second season with these characters, I’ve heard there’s more of a rhythm. I can’t wait to continue. I also can’t wait to see these guys again: 
Tumblr media
PLUS I discovered a HUGE spoiler about last week’s episode that honestly that has honestly gotten me so pumped; it is the main reason why I am catching up faster. (I won’t spoil it here if you still don’t know it. I foresee I’ll probably write an article just about that episode.) 
Tumblr media
VIOLETTA 
My guilty pleasure that I have been bingeing on Disney+. This musical telenovela from Buenos Aires has three seasons of 80 episodes a piece! (That’s right I have my work cut out for me.) Currently only the first season is up on Disney+ and the show is pretty hard to find, so I am really hoping that by the time I finish it they release at least the second season. I only started it in the new year and am already on episode 42, so you can say I’m enjoying it... :) Basically once I hit 30 I was hooked. (Although I was enjoying it a lot before that, now I’m just more obsessed.) There are several characters in the show from the students, to the teachers and family members, but the main character is Violetta who has lived in many different countries all her life with her dad who is a very successful businessman. She has been home-schooled forever due to their lifestyle and because of her dad’s worry that she will be hurt in the real world. Her mother was a popular singer who died when Violetta was very little that she barely remembers her. When they move back home she secretly gets enrolled in a music school that her mom just so happened to attend. Her tutor is secretly her aunt (who no one recognizes because Violetta’s dad told her that her mom had no relatives) and she has to hide attending the music school and singing which is her ultimate dream. That’s just the basics because there is so much more drama in the series. Lots of lying, deceit, love triangles that just won’t quit, ridiculousness and music. While they repeat a lot of the same songs, many of them are quite good and really catchy that you can’t help but get them stuck in your head. My sister (who loves this show) kept talking about it and that made me want to watch once we got Disney+ (she was lucky to watch two seasons when it was still on Netflix). As she said to me, you should watch it in the original language, which is Spanish with English subtitles. I feel like I’m learning more Spanish while watching it. Probably be fluent by the end (ha ha ha ha-not really). 
So, what are your favorites of this month? Are we watching any of the same things? Anything look interesting to check out? Let me know!

heyaaaa love! ♡ i hope you're doing well and are enjoying the readings so far!! ! :3 i'd really like to inquire about the potential of the connection between me and M.H.? can you find out what type of energy between us is? ♡ thank you so much ^.^ i am excited!!!
Hi sweetheart! Thanks for asking for a reading. I’m happy to be reading for you. ^_^ I decided to use my Linestrider for this reading and pulled an oracle card for you.
Tumblr media
The first card is the Three of Pentacles Reversed. This card shows a pair of ravens hanging upside down from branches as three pentacles are above their heads. The first thing that I notice is that this card seems to be cautioning you to avoid being taken advantage of. You often deal with people who don’t care about you. I think it’s important that you be discerning in this relationship to make sure that M.H. isn’t that kind of person (February 3rd by Jorja Smith). You have such a beautiful spirit and I know that you want to make genuine connections. I don’t think that this card is saying that M.H. isn’t one, just to not let emotions cloud your practicality. There may be some level of disharmony in this relationship. However, should you work through these issues, you will have a relationship full of trust, teamwork, and harmony. It may be a little rocky at first but it will balance itself out if you’re both willing to do the work.
Tumblr media
The next card is The Devil. This card shows a couple bound together beneath a horned skull overlayed with an inverted pentagram. I believe this card is reiterating the message of the last. You have to be careful that your desire to connect with others doesn’t end up backfiring on you. Both you and M.H. care for each other. That’s lovely, but The Devil cautions against codependency. Make sure that you two have healthy boundaries and spend as much time alone as you do together. You should remember to evaluate whether this relationship adds something positive to your life or not. Don’t be willingly blind to things that could end up hurting you. This relationship will be intense and may bring up some major personal issues for both of you. You’re both looking for something with meaning and I believe you’ll find it with each other - it just may not be what you’re expecting. 
Tumblr media
Moving onto more positive aspects of this relationship, the Knight of Cups joins the fray. A knight on a horse is overlayed with an orange fish and swirls of blue. The Knight of Cups heralds that this relationship is one of inspiration and creativity. You two find that you vibe in an easy manner. You two are a pair of idealists drive the other to fully express your feelings and creativity capacities. You’re a pair of romantics at heart, which is a big draw for each of you. It will be easy for you to fawn over each other and charm the other. It’s a sweet and rather beautiful energy with this card. The song I’m listening to (For You by AZU) talks about a relationship where a person is egged on by their loved one to do their best and remind them of how amazing they are when they forget. I think that sums up this card’s message pretty well. This will be a very loving and supportive relationship. 
Tumblr media
The Hermit speaks up next. This card depicts a bear who looks off screen. A lantern and skull lies beneath him while a flurry of flowers covers his back. This card actually represents you! You are a person who tends to be isolated and withdrawn, in part based on the way that the people around you have treated you. You are receiving opportunities to meet people you can actually spend time with (like M.H.), but there’s still a part of you that’s going to require time alone to process your feelings and have some breathing room. You’re rather invested in your inner world, which has resulted in you becoming a wise and dependable person. I think M.H. appreciates this about you. You do what you believe is best for you, above all. You know when to take a step back to consider things. You’re an old soul. That unique nature draws M.H. in. It makes them want to get to know you better. You may even be a mentor of sorts to them, particularly if they’re new to spirituality. 
Tumblr media
The Page of Cups thus refers to M.H. A young woman faces away from the reader, walking towards a wooded area with a chalice clasped in hand. I’m not sure if this care refers to the gender of M.H., but they do have a soft and loving energy. The Page of Cups represents this person’s dreamy, romantic, curious, and youthful person. They are the type to have their head in the clouds. This smacks of Piscean energy to me or maybe Cancerian. Regardless, this card tells me that M.H. is a very sensitive, intuitive, and emotional person. They tend to rely on their intuition and dreams to drive them. They’re creative and constantly coming up with new ideas. I think this fresh and sweet energy is what draws you to them. They’re easy to get along with and inspire you to look at the world with a new perspective. They represent the opportunities that you’ve only just started to notice. They remind you of the joys of life, the little things. It’s a new field for you, connecting with them like this. It may be a little nerve-wracking for you, dear hermit, but you are also eager to delve into it (Adore You/Location Mashup by NAO). They excite in a way that you may not have felt in a long time. M.H. will be an agent of change in your life. 
Tumblr media
The last card is an oracle card I was pulled to draw for you from my Miracle Oracle deck. The card is the Angel of Miracles. I think that this sums up this relationship nicely! This relationship will be full of abundance and lead you to some new opportunities. It will lead you to believe in miracles, or at least more strongly than you already do. I think this card also speaks to your guides supporting this relationship. They may have been the ones that placed MH in your path. The two of you can accomplish some great things together and learn to overcome problems that are hiding beneath the surface. I definitely think this is a relationship you should embrace wholeheartedly, so long as you remember the cautions from the first two cards. It will be a beautiful and productive one for sure. 
I hope you enjoyed this, love! It was such a pleasure to read for you and I wish the two of you the best! Please let me know if you have any questions and leave a review and/or tip! Thank you so much! (Btw, I was listening to Nina Cried Power as I copied this over. XD).

season 3
oh wow this is more difficult than I thought!
my favourite episode:
either “Smith and Jones” or “Gridlock”
“Smith and Jones” is probably the best companion introduction episode in New Who. It’s funny, it’s fast, it’s exciting, it’s smart... it has two great monsters, one of which (the Judoon) is fucking ridiculous (along with the premise of the episode) and that’s wonderful. Also the Doctor walking barefoot on the Moon is great.
And “Gridlock” is just a really great story? I can’t quite put my finger on why it is great... it is very human. Like it shows a world that is so far removed from ours in time, location, setting, circumstance, everything - yet the characters in it are unmistakably human and relatable. It has a particularly interesting twist of people being incapacitated and subdued by hope rather than made stronger by it. It is heartbreaking but also positive. And say what you will about them but I think cat people are awesome. 
So yeah probably “Gridlock” actually lmao
my least favorite episode:
“Daleks in Manhattan/Evolution of the Daleks”
Nothing particularly bad about it, but I’m not a huge fan either. Its one redeeming quality is Tallulah and “you put the devil in me” cause that song is great, actually.
a moment that made me cry:
The Master’s death (or rather the Doctor’s reaction) in “The Last of the Time Lords”. Always.
a moment that made me laugh:
Does “Runaway Bride” count as a part of Season Three? It must count. If it does then uhhh almost everything that happened in it, but especially “pockets!”. If it doesn’t for some reason or another, then... I’ll cheat a little bit cause I have to mention this - the bloopers/behind the scenes stuff, specifically when David Tennant has to talk nonsense for a few minutes for that video message that Martha plays in the TARDIS. Nothing beats Bingle Bongle Dingle Dangle.
my opinion on the finale:
I both love and hate it? Like I think that the writing was not particularly strong, and the choices RTD made about the Master’s characterization are... questionable, but the problem is that I’m thoschei trash and I am incapable of disliking anything that has the Master in it. I feel like even if the actual story was fifty times worse I would still love it. And the end of “The Last of the Time Lords” absolutely murders me every time that I watch it anyway. Making Koschei like that might have been a mistake (though it is certainly amusing) but Koschei dying out of sheer pettiness (trapped in the TARDIS my ass, I’m 100% sure he could have escaped the next day - I bet he knew he’d be brought back and just wanted to make Theta suffer) is extremely on brand. And the Doctor’s reaction really broke my heart. 
my favourite character arc:
Martha’s, no competition.
She was smart and strong and amazing from minute one, and Ten still spent the entire season treating her like shit, even though she saved his ass so many times like it is not even funny. I get it, he’s uber autistic and he just doesn’t see this stuff, and also he was in pain, but that’s not enough for an excuse lmao. And what did Martha do? Spends an entire year saving the planet (btw if you haven’t read “The Story of Martha”, do yourself a favor and read it already) then just fucking dumps him. Just straight up tells him “hey so this is really unhealthy for me so imma head out”. Best companion exit ever. 
The Doctor, on the other hand? The only thing he learned the entire season is “life really sucks sometimes, but then it might give you just the slightest glimmer of hope before crushing you completely and leaving you even more broken than you were before”. Does that even count as a character arc? Cause I feel this was made to emotionally torture me and specifically me.

The Disney Princesses- Ranked
I wrote a college research essay and project on this, so I know a teeny bit 
ALSO DISCLAIMER I LOVE THEM ALL 
10. Aurora
Sleeping Beauty 1959
Tumblr media
Aurora, while iconic, is probably the most passive out of all the Disney Princesses. She merely reacts to things happening to her, and bases her future on a literal dream. Furthermore, she only has eighteen minutes of screen time, meaning that she’s only in 24 percent of her film. However, Rebecca-Anne C. Do Rozario in her essay,  “The Princess and the Magic Kingdom: Beyond Nostalgia, the Function of the Disney Princesses,” makes very interesting points about Sleeping Beauty itself. Coming out right at the beginning of the sixties, it’s one of the first mainstream films to feature teenage rebellion, and Prince Phillip and Aurora are showcases of the American teenager. She compares Prince Phillip to James Dean, while he himself is a very strong character that rebels against his father and societal norms. She also compares Aurora to the brand new Barbie of the fifties, noting on their similar appearances. She calls Aurora a prototype baby boomer- which I thought was very interesting. 
10. Ariel 
The Little Mermaid 1989 
Tumblr media
TO BE REAL, their all great, so sorry for putting some of these women low on the list. But getting down to business (to defeat the huns), Ariel is a very problematic character and frankly, a bad role model. I love The Little Mermaid, and Ariel was my favorite for a long time (because she’s a mermaid and that is bad ass), but her behavior is very unsettling. She is willing to give up everything she has every known to be with a man she has only met once, and completely changes herself for him. While the movie is great, Ariel might even be more submissive than the earlier princesses, because she goes through such great lengths to change herself for a dude. HOWEVER, I did see a post somewhere once that said that not only was she chasing Eric, but also her dream to see land, which is legitimate and makes her better.
9. Cinderella 
Cinderella 1950 
Tumblr media
There’s not much to write home about Cinderella. She’s iconic and great, but doesn’t do that much. Again, another passive character. I love her anyway though. 
8. Jasmine
Tumblr media
Alladin 1992
First of all let me say that I love Jasmine, but she’s got some issues. I might get some backlash for putting Jasmine so low on the list, but hear me out. I can’t figure out why she’s even a crowned princess, as one of the requirements according to Illinois State University is to be the main character, but she is not the main character in Aladdin... Aladdin is. That being said, she is a very strong female character that rebels against societal norms, those being to get married. While she is very much a damsel in distress on multiple occasions, however, her sassy attitude is quite iconic. She’s very much a plot device to push Alladin through his hero’s journey.
7. Snow White 
Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs 1937
Tumblr media
Snow White is the girl that started it all. She’s a lot like Aurora, in that she just sort of reacts to things happening to her, both movies also have women that fall asleep and are woken by true love’s kiss. Do Rozario has some interesting things to say about Snow White too. She says that Snow White is representative of an old Hollywood starlet, looking like a silent movie star crossed with a flapper. Furthermore, this movie came out during the Great Depression, and seeing a princess pulled from poverty was a hopeful story for the American public during the time. Snow White did so much for Disney and the film industry, she’s truly iconic. 
6. Tiana 
The Princess and the Frog 2009 
Tumblr media
This is where it gets tricky, because from here on out, all the Disney Princesses are fantastic women. Tiana herself is the most realistic princesses, with big dreams and the actually will power to make it happen. She is the fist black princess, an enormous milestone, and is the first princess to not only dream big, but do the grunt work to make it happen. 
5. Belle 
Beauty and the Beast 1991
Tumblr media
Belle is great. I don’t like her too much though because in fourth grade I was in a production of Beauty and the Beast Jr. and I was a plate and I got SO SICK of the music. Be Our Guest, a great song, is ruined for this nine year old plate. Putting that aside, Belle is an extremely intelligent woman. She’s not a warrior, which is ok!! A woman doesn’t have to kick ass to be a bad ass, and Belle is full of love and acceptance. She is capable of looking past an outer exterior into an inner self, something not many people are capable of, and is maybe the most compassionate princess, (even if she’s a little stuck up in Provincial Life). 
4. Rapunzel
Tangled 2010
Tumblr media
Rapunzel is awesome, and is a low key warrior. She, like all the other princesses, is a dreamer. Rapunzel, like Tiana, has the willpower to make her dreams happen. She is sweet and charming while still having the capability to kick ass and take names, and is such a fun character to watch on screen. 
3. Mulan 
Mulan 1998
Tumblr media
Ok this is just me being a nitpick bitch, but Mulan bothers me just a teeny bit BECAUSE SHES NOT ROYALTY. She’s Savior of China and she marries a general, but is not royalty. According to Illinois State University, to be a Disney Princess, one must be royal, marry a royal, or commit a heroic action (even though that last thing literally only exists so Mulan can be a princess). But thats just me being a perfectionist.  ANYWAY, putting that aside, Mulan is great. Like I said, she is Savior of China, which is a huge deal. She’s a straight up bad ass and warrior, and she HARDCORE rebels against societal norms. She’s just straight up awesome. 
2. Pocahontas 
Pocahontas 1995 
Tumblr media
Ya’ll are sleeping on Pocahontas. She’s incredible. Pocahontas is a strong and confident woman, who stays true to herself and her people while single handedly stopping a massacre-like war from happening. She also saves John Smith, who is SUCH a damsel in distress, which is awesome. She cares about the environment, all her songs are jams, and the movie is so beautifully animated. Pocahontas is just wonderful.
1. Merida 
Brave 2012
Tumblr media
Again, ya’ll are sleeping on Merida. She’s a straight up warrior, and doesn’t give  a shit about the societal expectations placed on her. She defies the place of the ancient Scottish woman, and is a flawed character. She’s selfish and hard headed, and she has to save her mother from a mess she herself created. She has the most dramatic character development, and grows tremendously throughout the film. The movie also does not focus on a romantic relationship, but rather one between a mother and daughter. Furthermore, Merida is the only Disney Princess without a love interest, and ends the movie independently. 
BTW: these are the OFFICIALLY CROWNED PRINCESSES. Moana, Elsa, and Anna, are NOT Disney Princesses.

okay so Tan France spoke at Smith College last week (here’s proof) and since I was reporting on the event for my school’s newspaper, I took extensive notes on everything that happened 👀 here’s some of the highlights:
he made the moderator switch chairs with him because the chair he originally sat in showed his bad side lmao
Tan didn’t want to be on the show originally, but his husband convinced him. he said he really only went to the audition to make more gay friends because he didn’t have that many (relatable) 
he told us things about each Queer Eye guy that we “definitely don’t know:”
Karamo was the first person who talked to him at his audition, and Tan thought he was really hot lol. he said when he met Karamo he was like “hold me mate” 😂 but now he sees him as his brother. also apparently Karamo never drinks water?? He’s always having Coke. For breakfast every day he has a can of Coke and gummies, usually gummy worms but sometimes he has Welcher’s gummies and calls it “healthy”
Bobby is apparently “the most vulgar person you’ll meet” and he loves to make up disgusting sex stories and singing them to the tune of the guys’ favorite songs lol
Jonathan apparently takes his shoes and socks off in the car because he wants Tan to pull on his toes??? and then he tries to take off Tan’s shoes and socks to do it to him???? also he’s constantly video calling Tan (10 to 15 times a day apparently) but when Tan is home he wants to spend time with his husband because sometimes they only see each other a few times a month ☹️ so Tan’s solution was INSTALLING A SPECIAL SHELF IN HIS SHOWER SO THEY CAN VIDEO CHAT FROM THE SHOWER WITHOUT JONATHAN SEEING HIS DICK because that’s the only time Tan is alone at home. they apparently schedule showers at the same time for this reason lmao  
Antoni and Tan weren’t friends when the show first started because they both thought the other one was too sweet and innocent. then one night Antoni invited Tan to his house for tea after the other guys went out drinking (they both don’t drink) and Tan ended up staying until 4am talking with him. when Tan started to leave Antoni was like “I think you might be my favorite person” 😭 apparently now when Tan doesn’t see Antoni for more than like 3 days he feels like “someone ripped [his] arm off” 😭😭😭
he described the cast of Queer Eye as “the biggest bunch of dummies you’ve ever seen” and said that the show had to hire a “talent wrangler” to make sure they actually did their jobs because usually they just goof off or cuddle instead. a common thing to hear on set is the talent wrangler telling the guys to get off each other lol
he said there aren’t any patterned shirts on s3 because he’s “so sick of the memes you bitches!!!”
so there was a moderator asking him questions and running the event at first, but she also asked questions that the audience submitted ahead of time. one of them asked for his opinions on crocs. he said he’s against crocs “because their the fucking worst” and “if you wear crocs, you can’t complain that no one wants to sleep with you.” then someone from the audience yelled “BUT THEY’RE COMFORTABLE” and he asked her to stand up and say their name. then he said again that they shouldn’t complain if no one wants to sleep with them, but then THEIR PARTNER STOOD UP and Tan was like “...touché. you’re the exception” 😂
btw he swore EXCESSIVELY throughout the entire show. At one point he asked if anyone in the crowd was under 18, and when some people cheered, he apologized for swearing and then tried (unsuccessfully) to stop. it was nice though in general it felt like he was talking to his friends, not a huge crowd. it felt very intimate
so after the moderated portion of the talk Tan JUMPED DOWN FROM THE STAGE TO TAKE QUESTIONS PERSONALLY and he determined who he’d take questions from based on who screamed the loudest at his cue
one of the questions he answered was what’s your favorite movie, to which he said Dirty Dancing ((yeah yoke)) and Brokeback Mountain 
another was what to do to feel more self confident. he said to stand in front of the mirror while you brush your teeth and acknowledge the things you don’t like about yourself but to really focus on what you do like about yourself and to take the time to reflect on them
anyway sorry this is so long lol there was more I could add but these were the highlights imo. feel free to add more if you went to this event!!

Bastille @ the Wiltern (aka How Dan Smith Kissed Me)
Okay friends, strap in, this is gonna be a ride -- partially because I’s super excited, and partially because this is my ONE CHANCE to get revenge for the millions of SPN Con breakdowns I’ve had to read over the years, lol. ((BUT, because I am a nice nice Stitch, I shall put a read more break and you can scroll to the bottom if all you want to read is the kiss part lol.))
To start off, dis me and mah buddy Mikey ( @gnaist​) 
Tumblr media
We have known each other since fucking JUNIOR HIGH, and (as I told him last night,) there are v v few people I enjoy enough to tolerate them for over twenty years, let alone still actively want to see them. Dis guy? He dat guy. :) And he also puts up with me with minimal complaining. 
Mikey and I share a birthday week, and we usually do something together (just us) during September to celebrate. This year, he was sweet enough to agree that our Birthday Shenanigans™ should take place at the ONE gig Bastille’s playing in LA -- not because he's a fan, but because I am. #FriendshipGoals
So first, I got all dolled up, with fancy pink and purple hair and Bastille-themed nails:
Tumblr media
(That’s 00:15 for their song Quarter Past Midnight, a ∆ , and a letter for each member of the band: Charlie (guitar), Woody (drums), Will (bass), Kyle (keyboards), and Dan (lead singer))
Then, I drove to Mikey’s and gave him his half of our newest tradition: Birthday Socks!! One for me and one for him. 
Tumblr media
We had dinner at this awesome patisserie close to Mikey’s awesome new place (shoutout to him for Adulting and buying his first condo!) We also got cake because Birthday Shenanigans™.
Tumblr media
The food was super tasty, and the cakes were CHOCOLATE AF (don’t talk to me about my allergies, okay? Is mah BIRTHDAY)
We were running late, so we actually ate in the Lyft (the driver was nice enough to let us, and we were careful not to spill.) We got to the Wiltern at 7pm, JUST as they started letting people in.
Tumblr media
Once we got in, we got overpriced (but very tasty) drinkies (Birthday Shenanigans™)
Tumblr media
And then Mikey informed me that if we were going to a concert, we were getting merch. (Mikey is v v wise and a literal doctor, so I 100% believe anything he tells me.) We got shirts!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
He got a cute Quarter Past Midnight shirt (that was also unusually soft and high quality,) and I got the tie-dye one that’s based off Dan Smith’s actual shirt. I’mma cut up the collar like I do with all my shirts because I hate t-shirt collars.
Then we went inside the actual theatre, which is an Art Deco beauty. They’d taken out all the seats, but the orchestra section has many shallow levels/risers, and people could basically choose which section they wanted to stand in. There was a bar INSIDE the theatre. The lighting was too low for good pics, but you can sorta see in this:
Tumblr media
The very front pit and center section were filled with people who hadn’t sauntered in four hours late with chocolate mousse cake -- but there was space off to the right where we could stand and only two people were in front of us. YAY!
Then we waited. And waited. AND WAITED LIKE WTF PEOPLE?? I figure the Wiltern wants to give people time to buy drinks and stuff, but two HOURS???
Finally, about 9pm, the support act came on: a female singer named Fletcher? Anyone heard of her? Anyway, she was really good, had a gorgeous voice -- although we couldn’t understand what she was singing, but that was more because of the mic set up. 
Tumblr media
(Das her. V petite and blonde and has a looooot of songs about breakups, lol.)
Once Fletcher finished her set, there was another break while the road crew set up Bastille’s equipment. It was sort of fun to watch, because they’re all English blokes so they’re chatting away in cute accents while they’re doing the setup.
Tumblr media
And then, FINALLY, Bastille came on stage. 
And it. 
Was.
WORTH IT.
Tumblr media
They went hard from the moment they stepped on stage, and kept the energy up the entire time. 
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
I cannot fully express to you how electric they are live -- but let’s just say that all the good pictures are Mikey’s because  a) he is the bestest of friends and played cameraman for the evening -- but also b) I was too busy jumping around with Dan to get any actual images of Dan jumping around
Tumblr media
He even raced up to the balcony during Flaws, WHILE SINGING and dancing. (I was a bit disappointed he didn’t come by where we were standing, but I was also happy for the balcony peoples because you don’t normally get to interact much in the balcony. Also: ART DECO!!!)
Dan Smith’s voice was PEAK HONEY, and he did all the songs I hoped he would: The Draw, Blame, Quarter Past Midnight...hell, I’ll just show you the set-list, which I got to see after the show:
Tumblr media
(The girl holding it was the one who got to keep it -- she was super sweet and a HUGE fan who’d been to tons of concerts but had never gotten a hold of a set-list, so we were all happy she finally got one! :D) 
SIDENOTE: 
During the show, there was this moment in the song Bad Blood where Dan came over to the side of the stage where we were standing. Now, the camera lens makes it seem like we were farther away than we were, like this:
Tumblr media
When in reality we could see more like this:
Tumblr media
So the band could see our faces, too. So during Bad Blood, Dan’s singing, and I’m singing along with him (like a goober) and I raised my hand like you do when you’re feeling a song...
and he RAISED HIS HAND BACK AND SANG TO ME!
For like, two seconds, but still. It was a MOMENT.
Tumblr media
After that, I was floating on Cloud 9 -- so when the concert ended, I was ready to call it a perfect night. But when we went out (the back exit, as it was closer,) Mikey mentioned that because the line had stretched around the far corner of the Wiltern, we’d never gotten a chance to get a pic of the actual marquis. 
So we paused, and I looked back at the theater alley and thought -- huh, I wonder if they might...come out afterwards? Mebbe sign a few things? I has this nice shirt I spent too much money on...mebbe they sign my nice shirt, eh?
So Mikey went to get his pic of the marquis, which came out FABULOUSLY:
Tumblr media
And then we settled in to wait at the end of the alley where we thought they might come out. Turns out, we were at the wrong end. So after like, 30 mins of waiting on one end, we (there were like, 20 of us) meandered over to the OTHER end of the alley, where the band’s cars were waiting and the crew was loading out the equipment. 
Tumblr media
BTW, the Bastille crew? Super sweet, English and American, and those boys fucking HUSTLED. They were rolling 300-400lb equipment into this semi, basically doing the world’s largest game of Tetris, trying to fit everything in. We was all v v impressed. 
They also brought us water?? Because we’d been waiting for an hour and a half at this point and they felt bad, like...?? AND THEN, they gave us the balloons from the set!!
Tumblr media
And all the fans were really nice, and started taking the bunches of balloons apart so that everyone who wanted a balloon could have one (I got a green one, mah favorite color!)
So we’re waiting. And waiting. And WAITING GODDAMN DON’T THEY HAVE CLOCKS IN ENGLAND??
The crew finishes loading, the semi backs out, still we wait. Their manager finally comes out and says that yes they’re coming out, but probably only going to take a couple of group shots with all of us/not sign anything or chat. Why? Because the boys are exhausted. He tells us they’ve flown from England to Sacramento to Vegas to LA in 3 days and played 4 shows, soo... understandable situation. 
EXCEPT for this one fan, who started whining at the manager. “I didn’t wait ALL THIS TIME for some fucking group shot, I want a SELFIE!” “I need Dan to take a pic of me with my SIGN!!” (She kept harping about her sign... is no even a good sign?) 
Then, when it looked for a second like maybe the boys weren’t coming out at all, she snaps “You PROMISED they were coming!!” >:( The tone of this person’s voice, man -- you know the one? Like she’s Sharon at the Walmart and they were out of stock of Pantene Pro-V or some shit and they OWED HER some gotdamn PANTENE and where is the manager?? Ugh.
Anywho, the boys come out. (Except Will. He might have already fallen asleep, IDK lol.) But there was a Dan and a Kyle and a Woody, and they all not ONLY took some group shots, but DID give hugs and stuffs. 
Tumblr media
(Dan giving hugs. Woody, who was totally smiley and friendly and not a miserable git like this pic makes him look...right after this moment he ran over and gave the girl next to me a hug. Kyle was off to my right, giving many hugs and taking many pictures.)
Tumblr media
(Dan in a taco hat a fan had given him. Woody heading back after giving many hugs.)
Tumblr media
(Dan apologizing profusely because someone gave him a shirt for a present and he hadn’t realized that there was an image of a nekkid lady in the art collage on the front, and we were all ladies and he didn’t want us to feel uncomfortable or think he was a misogynist so he covered it up oh god he’s such a cinnamon roll I cannot!)
And now, the moment you’ve been waiting for: THE KISS.
So, during the interminable waiting, (literally, TWO HOURS PLUS, you guys!) several of us started chatting -- during the chat, it came up that I has made a Bastille art. I showed the ladies this pic:
Tumblr media
because we were all talking about Dan shaving his head and I was trying to convince them it was actually kinda hot, lol. 
They really liked the art!! :D So much so that they convinced me (after many prods and encouragements) to show the art to Dan. And I was gonna do it, honest! I was super brave and not at all terrified.
But then came the whole they’re too tired thing and I was like, eh, mebbe no? 
And THEN, Superbitch Fan was standing right next to me DEMANDING that Dan take a selfie with her and her sign. (Which he did, like a sweetheart.) Then when he went to turn to me, Superbitch decided she didn’t like the first pic, and PUSHED IN FRONT OF ME AND PAST THE SECURITY BARRIER to demand he take another one.
Which he did, like a sweetheart -- but then turned past me, probably so she couldn’t grab him again. So I figured, lost cause, right?
Wrong. As he turned back, I was holding the phone out, but not quite up, kind of undecided -- and it caught his eye. 
Daniel Campbell Smith GASPED, CLUTCHED HIS HEART
Tumblr media
and said “Wow.” Looked at the pic, then back to me, said, “Did you...”
And I held it up and said “Um, yes, I made you...an art?” (Because you know, what are words and why would I, a writer, know how to use them?)
And he just gaped, like HE had no words -- and then leaned in and KISSED ME ON THE CHEEK.
And not a peck, either?? Like a firm, full on “you are amazing and so is your art thing thank you so much” kiss for several seconds??
AND MIKEY GOT THE PIC!
Tumblr media
TL;DR:
It may be blurry, but there it is! Immortalized for all time, the moment Daniel Cinnamon Roll Smith liked my artwork SO MUCH he had to kiss me to say thank you. 
And then, dear friends, I died. 
Tumblr media
I have, in fact, been writing this diary from my condo on the edge of the Lake of Fire in Hades. Because I’m dead. 
BEST. NIGHT. EVER!!**
((Bonus: Mikey is now a Bastille fan! He really liked the concert, and is going to make his own playlist based on the concert’s set list. I’m so freaking happy we got to share that!! :DDDD)) 
((Super-bonus: Look in the right-hand corner of the kiss pic. See that woman looking like she’s having her night ruined? THAT was Superbitch. HA!))
**All credit to @gnaist for taking pictures of the entire night, even when I didn’t know he was shooting lol.

Only at people I like though. Gets on their nerves or creeps them out. I hardly notice that I do it. It just means I like them...right? They should be flattered!

Ryden conspiracy theories/evidence/pls just be frens now...+ a short history of P!atd...(part 1)
DISCLAIMER I find all of this stuff on the internet so idk if it's yours just tell me and I will make sure you get credited anyways onwards...
Oh and another thing I don't hate Sarah. Sarah is a queen and Brendon and her are happy and I wouldn't want to ruin a happy couple cos that would be unfair anyhow oh and I also think it's important to have a bit of Panic! history that many people might not know about as it gives you an idea of the kind of time frame that im talking about also its intresting too.
And if u don't know what Ryden is (tbf idk why ur here but this will educate u) it's basically the ship name of Ryan Ross (ex guitarist and backing vocalist of panic!) and Brendon Urie (singer and last man standing)
Pre-Panic
Ryan Ross and Spencer Smith (ex-drummer of Panic!) have been friends even since they were little the photo below would prove this
Tumblr media
They're so adorable 😊😊
In 9th grade they decide that they want to start up a band btw for reference Ryan and Spencer at that time attend (Bishop Gorman high school) and they invite Brent Wilson from Palo Verde high school to come and try out for bass along with another guy called Trevor they formed a band called Pet Salamnder this was when they were around 16 ish (They acctually still have a website for the band and you can go check it out if you want)
There some of the pics on the website but check out their bios as well because they made me laugh....
Here are some of their pics tho
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Spencer and Ryan and the whole band together (Ryan😂😂)
Anyways don't really know what happened to Pet Salamander but in short they kind of lost Trevor (don't know correct me if im wrong but I think Trevor was the guitarist in the way things worked out it would make sense and I think there was another band they created in between these 2 bands but idk its not important) The band now needed a new guitarist. Brent who went to the same high school as Brendon told him he should audition for their band so Brendon did just that and became the guitarist. Orginally Ryan was meant to be the lead singer but Brendon then became the lead singer because they heard him do his singing and they though he was good. At the time especially Ryan and Brendon were having a hard time with their families and their education as they wanted to quit high school and as a result I think they both got kicked out of their houses . Brendon got a job at a smoothie shack to try and earn some money to pay for rent. He also would sing to people for tips. In other words they were hella broke.
Here is a screenshot from Ryan's livejournal (which he has now deleted) where Brendon would post underneath
Tumblr media
I love ya' baby! wednesday. practice. be there of be....GAY!!
Brendon 😂😂
Anyways Ryan and Brendon started creating the demos for their album and Ryan decided to send them to Pete Wentz who was in the LV area recording under the cork tree with FOB. Pete listened to the demos and signed them up to his new record label decaydance after hearing them perform 2/3 songs.
I'm gonna leave you with some 2004 recording sessions this is filmed on a potato but is somehow high quality content of Ryan doing a this is our apartment tour its great
undefined
youtube
So yeah that's cool and also hilarious in it's own ways (gay bars!! 😂😂)
AFYCSO era 2005/6
AFYCSO was released on the 27th September 2005 on that same day Ryan posted something in his livejournal (I'm not sure if it was just something to commemorate it being released or if he was acctually in a relationship at this time but here is what he put)
'Whisper babe...i'm as good as it gets in this town.whisper babe..i'm a fever you can't sweat out.These are my deepest thoughts and secrets under a microscope or spotlight.Forgive me if i'm not quite ready to give them to you.it's such a different feeling..when I see you smiling and singing back to me i'm still playing different pictures in my head that arn't so pleasent. I'm doing the best now to live in the song and not just the meaning.'
(Yes this could be about Brendon but when you read it again it dosen't sound like that at all it seems as if hes talking about the lyrics and the meanings of the songs of which have things he had to deal with in his childhood his dad being an alcoholic ect. But he tries to be happy with the fans who are smiling and singing and live in the moment not just the past)
Obviously AFYCSO became popular especially the song I write sins not tragedies came out but there's many different interviews and pic that i'm going to share below.
This is the one where Ryan says that Brendon washes his hair and he blushes red. It's adorable 😊
undefined
youtube
Here is another 2005 interview by the same girl who thought Pete was called Jason 😂 but anyways it's old like just look at Ryan's hair he's in his troll phase still 😂
undefined
youtube
This is another old interview that shows them acctually performing and only contain Brendon and Ryan talking about the band they're so awkward its adorable.
And here's a pic of them from a photoshoot
Tumblr media
Idk but Brent looks so confused rn 😂
(Look at Brendon as well staring at Ryan...hmm..😉)
And here's an adorable pic of them together my bbs 😊❤
Tumblr media
Look at them they're soo adorable ❤❤👌😊
Anyways 2006 is when it all became big for the boys who announced a tour and where becoming bigger than ever. At the end of 2005 to 2006 both Brendon and Ryan began dating scene queens Audrey and Jac. Pics below
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Yup this is them together.
Idk when they breakup but they break up and some evidence that I've found online is very interesting.
Here is screenshots of chats that Audrey and Jac had online. The first picture shows that Jac is blaming Brendon for turning her bf (Ryan) gay
Tumblr media
The next one shows kinda the same thing exept this time Audrey blamed Ryan for turning Brendon gay
Tumblr media
Hmmmm... All very interesting I think....
(Note there's another conversation or so that I want to include in part one but it's way too long to put on this one post so i'm going to do a little post to finish off part 1. And also i'm obviously going to work on part 2 straight away but I just feel like the whole panic! and especially Ryden stuff needs to be updated abd i also find it super interesting as well. Also I feel I need to adress all the lyrics that could somehow lead to something to do with one another there's so much stuff out here and I need it all in one place cos im fed up of trawling the internet for all the theories and stuff never getting anywhere 😂)
