@lastincurableromantic​ is the mechanic one your vision for how Nine looks in The Choice?

Thank you to @buffyann23 who tagged my main, @rinari7, but since this is more a fandom thing I’m putting it here. :)

Rules: Complete and tag your tumblr homies or fellow David Tennant fans, just for a bit of fun!

Your first DT memory - when you first laid eyes on the tall skinny Scottish bloke: I think this was in St. Trinian’s 2: The Legend of Fritton’s Gold. (Do not waste your time with that, sorry. The first St. Trinian’s was good; that one was crap, despite Tennant.)

Favorite DT Character: Either the Tenth Doctor or Davina (though I have yet to get to know Campbell Bain).

What was the last DT related thing you watched: Pretty sure that was Broadchurch Season 3 Episode 2 a little over a week and a half ago. (Only? My time sense is completely nonfunctional.)

Favorite physical feature: I don’t know. I guess the hair? Depends on how he wears it. Scruff is good if he has it. The lanky wiry-ness? I apparently don’t stare enough or something. Does the light in his eyes count as physical? If so, that’s it.

Favorite DT quote? Put it here:  "I’m just going to agree with everything Billie says, which I’ve found to be a good tactic in life." (It’s not particularly deep or anything, but it makes me smile.)

Have you been blessed and seen him in person: Nope. Not a person who really feels much of a desire to meet celebrities.

… or seen him in a play: Recorded, yes, once.

Are you a Tenth Doctor fan?: I love Ten, yes. He is a delight.

… how about Kilgrave?: I’m not acquainted with the character.

Alec Hardy or Emmett Carver: I’ve only seen part of one episode of Gracepoint so far, so right now it’s Hardy.

Favorite DT series: Doctor Who, though I’m excited to see Takin’ Over the Asylum so that might give Doctor Who a run for its money.

Favorite DT movie: Considering I’ve only seen St. Trinian’s 2 and The Decoy Bride, it’s got to be The Decoy Bride.

(I feel like a rather crappy DT fan...)

I'm definitely feeling your concerns - unfortunately! But I'm just hoping we'll get something along the lines of the TenRose books - which are mostly just good fun without being overtly shippy or non-

I can understand what you're saying. For me, I just try to see Big Finish stuff as another form of fanfiction since it wasn't written by RTD & therefore not really cannon IMO. EX: the BF River audios. M sorry, but it makes no sense how she can have adventures with 6,7 & 8 when 10 didn't even know her in the show. I mean is she retcon-ing him each time? WTF? But yeah, I just try to look at it that way cause my cannon S what RTD, Julie Gardner & David & Billie say.

Exactly :) I'm just gonna take it for some extra fun that we get to have with then...I'm sure it won't be much different to thebooks anyway. Which were fine, if not realistically shippy enough.

yeah, i agree that they are on, let’s say, a lower rung of canon than the show. not completely canonical, perhaps, but i also wouldn’t categorize it with fanfiction.

it’s a good way to look at it, that’s it’s just a nice bonus, if it does turn out.

but the thing is, if this goes poorly, it’s not going to be easy to ignore. david and billie voicing the characters is going to make it very real. i won’t be able to erase the memories of hearing it from my brain, you know? it will haunt me the same way gitf haunts me. 

it’s that possibility that scares me.
