the winter system Posted January 18, 2019 Author Report Share Posted January 18, 2019 I was reading some meta on the thirteenth doctor and I was surprised, while being somewhat amused, at how this could easily be about Funtimes: "I know this scene is meant to be humorous (and it is) but it’s also really telling. The Doctor is desperate to be the hero. She wants so much not to fall off the pedestal her friends have put her on. She’s pleading with them. 'I tried. You saw. Whatever happens next, it isn’t my fault. You can’t hate me. You can’t be afraid of me. Please don’t be afraid of me.'" (Are we sure the staff for season 11 hasn't been reading our roleplay? Hm...) @TwiLyghtSansSparkles 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the whole episode. It is hailed by fans and critics alike as one of the best of the season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know how, sometime around Day of the Doctor, the BBC kept putting out all kinds of bonus material, one of them being the guy who played the Fifth Doctor doing a dramatic reading of the speech Matt Smith gives to his assembled enemies at the Pandorica? I have a feeling Doctor-Doctor Funtimes' upbraiding of Calamity would be another speech fans ask former Doctors to read. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes I look at Archive Of Our Own and I realize just how tame our Fanfics thread truly is. And for a moment, I'm glad we never built up a massive online popularity.

Especially the creepy ones. Because it'd be absolutely hilarious. EDIT: and that would be my only motivation. Absolutely. My only reason.

And I thought that was intentional all along. I mean, do we just have a solid 40 minutes where Doctor Jade chews him out, or do we have some sort of action going on in the scene as well, like….I dunno, something Epic? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funny story. I started a fanfic when I was 14, a really really horrible one that was so bad I deleted it later. But it stayed decent enough for a while that it gained a small following, and one reviewer said it was "very clearly planned out." I still wonder if I should tell that internet rando that I was pulling things out of my backside. Hurm. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, I've always been someone who figured everyone reading just wanted me to stop talking a more minimalist writer, so there was no purple prose, but…. Let me put it this way. I was 14. I'd never had a significant other at all. And my story involved an affair and a crumbling marriage. In a fandom that was more about action-comedy than couples drama. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Swan Dragon Posted January 18, 2019 Report Share Posted January 18, 2019 See, I'm an artist more than a writer. So instead, I have my fair share of horrible fanart. This stuff has actually been the majority of my non-academic writing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
