Ok, God, I am fucking wheezing, I got trained to work with mice today since I’ll need them for some experiments and the guy who trained me was like, “Yeah ok so if there’s a day where you just absolutely cannot get your mice to cooperate you can always do this” and picks up this cone-shaped bag and just put the mouse face-first into it and shows it to me and I lose my shit because deadass it was a piping-bag of mouse. Like, the wholemouse was pressed into this cone, fur and ears and feet all pressed up against the plastic, tail sticking up absurdly out of the top of the thing. It was so unimaginably fucking funny but like the mouse was perfectly ok with it, there’s a hole for air at the bottom so she could breathe and all but it was genuinely the most absurd thing I have witnessed in months
THIS IS FUCKING IT, IT’S SO FUCKING RIDICULOUS!!!!!
you will be turned to icing if you don’t start acting correctally.
There’s a lot of things they don’t tell you. Impressionable young girl with a thirst for thrill seeking, craving the ability to see what’s out in the great beyond.
“They say he’s made of the Universe and carries starlight in his kiss.”
The Doctor was an enigma to the people of the world. Only a select few knew of him, knew him intimately, but no one was ever able to thank him for his service to humanity for all the things he’d done. You’d heard the whispers about his species and how he was the only one of them who cared for humans. Who put them above all else. Even above himself.
“Who wouldn’t want to look at something so beautiful?”
When you finally meet, it’s like looking into the heart of the sun. Devastating and terrifying and altogether beautiful.Eyes older then the stars and hands that cradled the world envelop yours and The Doctor whisks you away on an adventure that you’re sure to never forget.
You find out quickly that he wears his hearts on his sleeve and he desires nothing more then to be loved the same way he’s loved so many before him.
“What are you afraid of?”
He doesn’t tell you the first time you ask. After countless encounters with death and near scares that you or the Ponds would be ripped away from him before he could have a solid grip, The Doctor sets the Tardis in the Medusa Cascade and approaches you with two cups of tea. Made just the way you like it.
“I’ve lost many people. Some left. Some died.” He was sitting close enough to you now that you could feel the warmth that radiated from his skin. “I think my greatest fear is that I’ll end up burying you before we’ve ever really began.”
You set your cup of tea down and scooted just close enough to see the way his breath caught in his throat, taking his hand in your own to spread his fingers wide against your torso. Your heartbeat thrummed beneath his fingers; Wild and erratic and alive.
“You feel that?” Warm breath ghosted across your face as you bent your head and whispered, “That’s a heart as far from the grave as it can be.” before claiming his mouth with your own.
It’s month of reckless love and chasing each other down paths that were once so dark. Kisses and holding hands, whimpers and moans and declarations of love in the dead of night when he makes love to you. Amy and Rory know, River knows, anyone who comes across your path knowsthat you are his and his alone. You came to terms with that when you met - that he’d stolen you - but what they didn’t know is that you had also stolen him.
They didn’t say what loving The Doctor was like. They didn’t warn you about the death and the destruction and the heartbreak wrapped up in one very lonely man.
And when The Doctor dies on the shores of Lake Silencio, casting one last look at you over his shoulder as if to reassure himself that you’re still there, the universe explodes in front of your eyes the moment his body hits the ground. Sand stains your hands and stars flicker in your eyes as you bury your face in his chest and weep.
For a moment you wonder if loving the Universe was worth it.
pure POETRY. This is ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS and I’m so glad you’ve written for Doctor Who again!!
Fun fact: Rubber bands were invented in 1845 to hold papers and documents together.
ooof what a day, y’all! I was in a work retreat with my team all day, and it was emotional but fun, but very intense. One of my fave coworkers who i had not seen for two years who was my constant pal was there. He used to shoot rubber bands at me and I missed him heaps.
life imitates art. but sometimes it’s the other way around. this appearance of Oscar Isaac and Jessica Chastain stuck in my mind and served as my inspiration for new TonyNat art piece
Welp, I should consider this my first GG animation!
I actually made this for my 2D Character Animation final. It was pretty awesome that I was able to make the entire class laugh, haha! I was planning on cleaning up and coloring the animation during my winter break, and…well…I didn’t. I feel really bad about it, BUT I’m sure that there will be some opportunities in the future for me to finish it! I was planning on sharing it online when it was fully completed-but the hell with it! I’m pretty proud of it!
