"you sound smart" that's because i've spent years doing academic writing to the point that it's my default cadence plus or minus the use of profanity as a tone indicator
"you sound stupid" that's because i'm dumb as fuck
finally a good fucking addition on this post
11: I DO WHAT I WANT!
Amy: I’m calling River.
11: No, wait-
River: [about 11] What an idiot, I can’t believe I’m going to have sex with him.
Amy: Well, you don’t have to…
River: Nah, I’m gonna.
Harry T. Jones (twitter harrytjones2000) very kindly found the River Song story he wrote for the Doctor Who Lockdown. Most stories were lost when the site went down. Please click the link to share or like the post!
I absolutely LOVE the ending to this.
this came to me in a vision
A friend and I got bored in class and one thing led to another and this is what he thinks every episode River appeared in is about solely based off the title and the doctorwho.tv thumbnails:
Silence in the library: “Spacesuits with replaceable heads of dead people (like Walt Disney)”
Forest of the Dead: “She (River) is the body that they put the skeleton helmet on”
Time of Angels: “Taylor Swift”
Flesh and Stone: “there’s a guy and he really wants to be a weeping angel so he makes a cosplay and starts a cult and tries to become a weeping angel”
The Pandorica Opens: “Spacetime wacky hijinks where they get a Roman soldier, a Minotaur and a bunch of random aliens from wherever and put them in a maze”
The Big Bang: “young Sheldon”
The Impossible Astronaut: “they don’t go to the moon. Instead, they go to the 50s and the astronaut is a Chinese spy trying to uncover NASA’s plans so China can go the the moon first and capture aliens. But they do not go to the moon.”
Day of the Moon: “an episode for the fans. They still don’t go to the moon. Instead, the current cast, old companions, and irrelevant side characters from the 60s are all locked in a dark room and they try to get out.”
A good man goes to war: “Doctor Who becomes friends with a good man, then goes to the future to discover the kid grew up into a heartless person, find out they went to war, then continue going back in time to figure out why.”
Let’s kill h!tler: “they don’t kill him. Instead they devise a bunch of plans on how to kill him. They don’t travel through time, they are in a room the whole time making theories on how they could do, why they can’t do it, and why they couldn’t have done it earlier”
Closing time: “the Doctor isn’t here, it’s just James Cordon getting tortured for 40 minutes by an unseen figure”
The wedding of River Song: “whacky hijinks ensue on a barge. The story focuses on like different people, why they’re here, and how they’re connected. One guy is an alcoholic who comes on the barge to get drunk in secret, one guys trying to get married, one’s an assassin, one’s the officiant, they’re all crazy and they have to work together for seemingly unconnected reasons”
The Angels take Manhattan: “the weeping angel cult is back and it spreads throughout Manhattan.”
The name of the Doctor: he gave me three different options:
1) the timeless child story (kinda)
2) the prisoners of the judoon plot (kinda)
3) the setup to a Doctor waaaaay farther into the relative future
The Wedding of Song: “super controversial. The companions are now fully fleshed out characters separate to the Doctor. Call back to the episode on the barge. Fans hate this episode.”
Russel, please hire this man, I’d watch these episodes.
I would have watched 100 seasons of Nora helping traumatized children but whatever

235 FAVORITE SHIPS OF ALL TIME (ranked by my followers) 158. ray palmer and nora darhk - legends of tomorrow
I really don’t know what this is, I’ve been craving Ray and Nora content
Warning: like stated in the title this is pure smut/ heavy size kink/ dom/sub Dynamics/Role play
Thanks for reading I would love to discuss some Darhkatom Ideas and concepts so feel free to submit anything🤍
As a child, Nora Darhk was possessed by a demon, and her father sent her to be raised by a cult where she was trained to be a demon vessel. Her magic, her mind, her body — all being used in someone else’s service, at someone else’s whim. Her autonomy was taken from her at a young age.
Then by the end of season three, Nora isn’t a demon vessel anymore. She’s finally free — free to figure out who she is without a controlling father or being possessed by a demon. That includes figuring out how to reclaim her magic and use it in the ways she wants to. Season four starts to explore this… and then Nora is tricked into becoming a fairy godmother. The key point here is that fairy godmothers’ magic can only be used at someone else’s command. So, basically, Nora had been denied magical autonomy since childhood, and then the demon is removed from her life and she can begin her journey of reclaiming her autonomy (which is an incredibly symbolic journey for abuse survivors and women in general), and then that journey is cut short and her autonomy is taken away again as a fairy godmother. The worst part is that Nora becoming a fairy godmother is used for comedy, with absolutely no acknowledgment of her trauma. Essentially, now her lack of agency is played as a joke.
Granted, season five shows Nora coming to accept her new role and finding joy and meaning in it. That’s all well and good, but the problem is that the decision to cut her character development short and once again remove her autonomy was made in the first place. It also effectively prevented Nora from actually becoming one of the Legends and living on the Waverider with them because she had to be out “doing her job” as a fairy godmother. That also set up Nora and Ray leaving the show.
From a narrative standpoint, the choice to make Nora a fairy godmother was a terrible one. She’s an amazing character, and she deserved to be treated better by the writers.
Nora: I’m glad we decided to keep our anniversary simple this year.
Ray: Me too.
Ray: *frantically waving off marching band*
Oh yes, oh yes. It’s the same thing every time. Kid gets a fairy godmother, what do they wish for? You get a pony, and you get a pony! Everyone gets a damn pony.
