I wrote my own original Doctor Who screenplay (full episode length!) and just posted it on Ao3.
The Doctor and Castelle (an original companion) land on a desert planet covered in dust, beckoned by a distress signal. All seems safe during the day, but night is approaching fast.
Note: This is an original, full 45-minute to 1-hour long “screenplay” formatted for Ao3. You can envision whichever Doctor you like and adjust the pronouns in your head accordingly. I had the Eleventh Doctor in my head while writing this.
Today, one of my second graders was working on shape name recognition, and we got to this picture of a pyramid shape with a wide-ish base. When he saw it, his eyes lit up and he turned to me with a huge grin on his face, pointed at it, and said “When the teacher forgets to assign homework” before bursting out into hysterics, covering his mouth and giggling.
I don’t understand what happened except this kid CLEARLY knows about the strong comedic and memeable value of mathematical shapes and emotions that I, an old millennial, cannot comprehend
I did, however, try to recreate this moment as the meme this child must have seen in his head
maybe he was thinking of the dancing triangle meme??
i have seen this gif with that exact caption before. this is absolutely the one he was thinking of
That kid saw one of the simplest geometric shapes and said that’s blorbo from my memes 👍
My hot Dracula take is that he drank from & started to vampirize Jonathan the night of the 29th. (The whole “To-night is mine. To-morrow night is yours!” thing. You get it.) People have talked a lot about his later vampy traits (strange strength and speed, his anime boy white hair, ect) but I kinda have a plausible theory as to why he gets those traits but doesn’t seem to be actively turning into a vampire when we see him next after he escapes. Vampires, and those being turned by vampires, are harmed by holy symbols. So could it be that part of Jonathan’s brain fever in the convent is him reacting to being fucking SURROUNDED by holy symbols? Like, Dracula’s vampiric influence getting burned out of him?? I just think it’s an interesting idea.
One little detail that sends Jonathan reeling but is easy to overlook is how Dracula opens the front door without a key. Jonathan’s been taking potentially fatal risks to try to get through those locked doors, and it’s the only thing keeping him from just fleeing into the forest and taking his chances there.
Then lo and behold! All he has to do is ask, and the door was never locked at all! Why would I need to lock you in, friend Jonathan? I’d never dream of keeping you here against your will, you could have left at any time!
Of course, Jonathan had examined the doors before and knew they were locked. It’s a massive gutpunch of gaslighting that seems to hit harder than all of Dracula’s other manipulations. Meanwhile, I’m pretty sure that Dracula just unlocked the door at a touch, just so he could twist the knife deeper.
New Info (7/28/11):
I was told to remove complaints about life because I rarely do that, but I enjoy having the option to cry on your dashboards. The rest is basically the same. Except for copious amounts of Doctor Who. And possibly Sherlock.
Old Info (10/28/10):
Muse, Star Wars, complaints about life. Maybe some Palahniuk (You should read RANT). Probably some Pokemon stuff. Also, TF2 things and L4d! You can add me on steam if you find me.
I made a papercraft Stormtrooper helmet and it's the sexiest thing I own, so I flaunt it occasionally. May occasionally appear on Stickam/Tinychat things so you can adore my face.
Ask me things because I'm good about responding? I dunno.
Old info:
Don't even know why I have this, but follow me!
May talk about Palahniuk, James Bond, Star Wars, Muse, and complain a lot.
Muse runs through my veins, it's kind of crazy.
