Last night I started a rewatch of Doctor Who to take my dad through the show from the beginning. Heā€™s watched several episodes, but never really in any order.Ā 

A rewatch of course means plot bunnies or meta posts from me, because every time I watch this show, I catch things I missed before.Ā 

For instance! Has anyone ever noticed the look on Roseā€™s face at the very end, when she tells the Doctor no and he doesnā€™t argue? She expected him to persuade her.Ā 

My entire meta/headcanon surrounding this has changed. I used to think she said no because he was offering her so much more than sheā€™d ever thought was possible. I still think thatā€™s part of her thinkingā€“ā€Iā€™m just a shopgirl; why does he want to travel with me?ā€ And Mickey is right there, reminding her of how much she isnā€™t.Ā 

But nowā€¦ I think I get it now. She was uncertain if she really had the right to accept such an offer, so she said no hoping he would give her reasons that she was the perfect companion for his life. The initial refusal is also there to appease Mickey, at least a little.Ā ā€œWell, I didnā€™t just run off the first chance I gotā€¦ he had to talk me into it.ā€Ā 

Itā€™s all there in her body language. Even when she says no, sheā€™s still hopeful and poised to run. When he slumps in disappointment and only says okay, she is surprised. Thatā€™s not how she expected him to react. (@rudennotgingr pointed out that sheā€™s not used to people accepting her choices without arguing over her.)Ā 

And then she stands there in that alley for a few seconds after the TARDIS disappears, staring at the spot where it had been in disbelief. He wasnā€™t supposed to leave without her!

Iā€™m really not sure how I missed this before.Ā

Hello there, everyone!

Iā€™m Lisa, probably better known as dirty-brian.

In recent weeks, Iā€™ve noticed a trend through the Doctor Who fandom. Thereā€™s been a big push for non-smut-centric fanfictions (and recognition for the ones that already exist). Smut isā€¦letā€™s say Ā itā€™s probably the most pervasive genre of fic writing, and I know a lot of writers (myself included) feel that readership and popularity are largely linked with whether or not an author writes nsfw content.

Now, thereā€™s absolutely nothing wrong with smut- I love reading it, and I love writing it! But when it becomes as pervasive as it is, it negates the opportunity of having a safe space from nsfw content for those who donā€™tĀ read/write it. And sometimes, itā€™s nice to take a break from the shagginā€™ for an adventure or some fluff or delightful angst.

Thatā€™s where the idea for this blog comes in! I want to create a fun, positive, smut-free environment where we can highlight awesome fics, put out prompt ideas, and spread positivity and recognition for authors. Itā€™ll be a place where people can come to share their Doctor Who fic/doodles/whatnot.

Iā€™m still working on the specifics, but I want to have this fun little blog up and running by the first of the month. As it stands right now, Iā€™m working on the blogs and making sure all the links are functional.Ā If anyone has ideas for promos/contests/prompts/anything else I could do to spread the word, let me know! I can be reached on here or at my personal blog.

Hugs!

Hi! Would you like to write another one? Campbell x Rose and the situation one of them singing along to a song in a movie. It could be a sad song. When I first thought about it, I had this scene from beginning of Bridget Jones's Diary in my head. I don't know if you know what I'm talking about. But if you are willing to write this , it doesn't have to look like that. Byeee (l loved the Aiden x Rose one)

Hi Nonny!

This sounds wonderful, but Iā€™m just not sure I am the person for it. I hope you donā€™t mind me putting this out there as a prompt for some of the other writers who love Campell dearly and I know will take care of him!
