So the thing you have to understand about doctor who the movie 1996 is that it isn't good. But it is the best film ever made. It has little to no outstanding qualities as a narrative and is such a wild read of doctor who that if you replaced a few proper nouns throughout it would just be a regular bad sci-fi movie. The fact the series survived it is the reason i'm not worried about canon or the shows future in the slightest. The pitch for it consists of some of the most insane lore retcons i've ever seen in my life, and the only major one to make it into the movie is generally considered so out of left field that people refuse to acknowledge it to this day. Literally nothing matters. The master is goo and also a lizard, seven gets gunned down in the street, paul mcgann is the first doctor to canonically get bitches. There's a motorcycle chase. Bad 90s cgi. the regeneration is a frankenstein reference. its camp. eight has his dogs out. it is somehow more american than you would expect. it features by far the best rendition of the main theme in the shows history. Who fucking cares man. 11/10
what shall i throw at ryland grace...
autism
adhd
vasovagal syncope maybe. for fun. he's completely fine with needles but not so good with the sight of his own blood. i think he's never fully fainted about it, just sometimes gets woozy and has to Sit or Lie Down Immediately but he's still conscious and i think that technicality is very important to him because he's a little (a lot) embarrassed about it. definitely been teased for being such a delicate flower
once he's on the mary it switches. he's more OK with his own blood and wayyyy less okay with needles
after the physical + emotional stress of the Space Horrors i think he can develop Dizzy On Standing (this gives rocky several heart attacks)
osteoarthritis, because erid gravity hates human bones so bad
migraines
even after erid cures him of his eight thousand nutritional deficiencies i dont think his system ever fully recovers
been forgetting my meds for like 2 months solid and i can feel the effects. in my bones
I like finding out what people my age and older had as their first cell phone. Anybody younger and their answer is a generic Android or iPhone. Phones from the 2000s were some wacky device like the sidekick or samsung x83 or lg env2
My first phone was a nokia 1112 in 2008

my insurance doesnt cover fluoride? at dentist? for some baffling reason. its 20 out of pocket which isnt horrible but also. its some paste they put on my teeth one (1) time and it costs more than a months supply of one of my meds... why
tuvok really is becoming unofficial ship's counselor for everybody isnt he
watching voyager. fascinated by whatever the fuck janeway and tuvok have going on
you designate a guy your personal counsel, your outsourced conscience, your emotional support officer. he apparently takes to this role like a duck to water to because he's level-headed and a phenomenal officer and also your dear friend. and then your friend decides that the most logical solution to your moral quandary is to bypass you entirely
to silently make the decision for you, to give the crew a chance at the best possible outcome in said sticky situation. you don't have to experience the personal turmoil and the crew doesn't miss out on the opportunity. it's efficient. it helps you
and then you're livid, because how dare he do that. that's not what he's for. he's not for going and making questionable moral choices on his own. he's for guiding you through sticky situations. he's supposed to be your rock. how could he go and be an individual like that, disregarding what you've made him to you--and then claim he did it for you. this is a betrayal of you personally, not just because he went behind your back and disobeyed your directive, but because he said it was to help you, when it was the Opposite of the way you believe he is Supposed To Help You
and in the middle of going How Dare You, I Need You with no apparent self awareness of how it sounds whatsoever, you talk a good line about how logic is easily twisted into whatever shape someone wants it to be
and he takes all that in, absorbs it, and says first that there was, in point of fact, nothing wrong with his logic. it was perfectly sound and NOT artificially twisted to suit his own ends. but he concedes that he was wrong to act on it
and you tell him to bring his logic to YOU, in the future, and you POSE this as an alternative to him tidily 'solving' your problems for you behind your back, but really what you mean is that you don't trust him anymore, and how the turntables, you have to check HIM, you have to be HIS moral compass, because his is clearly fucked
and he just. agrees. you're his superior officer, and you're exerting that authority over him very overtly in a way you don't often do. it's difficult for him to refuse in this context. you're also his friend and you're hurt, and he didn't intend to hurt you, and for that he is sorry
even if he doesn't, in fact, actually think that what he did was unreasonable
i'll grant there is something to be said about him going behind her back to make that decision for her and how that could be considered patronizing, or (if we care about the chain of command way out here so very far from home) disregarding her authority. and if she'd made that argument i'd go "i mean ok fair", i'd understand why she's so pissed. but the thing is she didn't make that argument. and i'm glad bc this one is a lot more interesting

if your narrator calls ryland grace "grace" but calls eva stratt "eva", im pelting you with tomatoes
"uwu u can interpret this romantic or platonic however you want" i was gonna do that anyway i dont need your permission fuck off
"orginally i meant for this to be solely platonic but the more i wrote the more i was like welll they are CLOSE close arent they huh so i changed my mind bit" right right right because closeness is inherently an indicator that there has to be romance bc romance is inherently More Close bc a platonic relationship could Never be that close no no no ONLY romance can have big emotional intimacy. just romance. no other relationship type ever. not even once. man get fucked
the trolley problem except the guy tied to one set of tracks is your friend and someone you trust and one of the few people in the world that you genuinely like and he's begging for his life and he's saying that you're murdering him and he's screaming and clawing and running like a wild animal. on the other set of tracks is every living thing on the planet. its a no brainer, obviously. but he will still scream. this happened to my good friend eva stratt
The eye doctor is the most fun doctor you can go to. They never steal your blood. They never make you get naked and put on a paper dress. They're just like, "Can you see these letters? It's fine if you can't, we can fix that." And they don't even spell anything.
not to be an asshole. but sometimes i get very tired of romo asexuals assuming all aroaces have oodles in common with them by default on the grounds of both being ace. lumping us together like we're 2 Dudes In A Trench Coat when really it's more like there's at least half a dozen dudes crowded under 1 umbrella in the rain
don't get me wrong like of course there's common ground and of course solidarity and community are important and all. but i personally feel like i have way more in common with aromantic allosexuals than i do with romo aces. like by such a huge margin
