OKAY!!!

OOOOOOOH

KAAAAAAAY!

I loved it. I ate it up. Big spoonfuls. Gonna have seconds. And once I’m stuffed? IMMA ART!

But anyone else get this vibe from a certain scene?😄😄😄

Desc: You are the most normal of marine soldiers, but end up on the ship of an Emperor of the Sea and his murderous not very friendly crewmates. Now you have to survive while taking care of the little girl that got you in this situation.

CW: Fluff, angst, slowburn, eventual smut (top reader), ocs.

TW: Violence, gore, mental illness and its symptoms/consequences. Take these warnings very seriously.

Spoilers: Havent written any major Shanks spoilers so far (even in drafts chapters ahead), but I'm planning on bringing at least some snippets into the future since Shanks's backstory majorly effects how a deep romance would react. It will definitely have anime spoilers though. Who knows, by the time the chapters with manga spoilers come out it could be already in the anime lol. I will change this if it isn't the case.

Cw and Tw are for things that i have planned too.

Welcome back to Canon Fodder! Here we are at the end of May which means that the latest novel, Halo: Waypoint Chronicles – Volume One, has hit shelves across the world. You’ll have plenty of fiction to digest from that colossal compendium, and we’re here to give you a peek at what’s in store for the future of Waypoint Chronicles as a storytelling medium for Halo.

And that’s just the tip of the iceberg. In this issue, we’ll be exploring some of the editorial updates to The Flood as part of Halo: The Master Chief Omnibus, as well as the consolidated system we’ve compiled for the Covenant Battle Calendar as part of our collaboration with some of the admirable admins of Halopedia.

Look, we can explain multiple existing references to the children of Time Lords as "they were born before the race went sterile all at once". We can even discard the novels and audio productions*, because, for the mercy of Kali, THIRTY ONE SEASONS OF TELEVISION IS ENOUGH CANON FOR ANYONE. But none of this explains why the Doctor-- who is NOT A GALLIFREYAN-- cannot have children. And sure, maybe The Rani doesn't know this, but The Doctor does. He specifically mentions that he's a foundling in this episode.

Also, given that The Rani is back**, and The Master does not need a logical reason to still be around***, and the FIRST Time Lord is in some underverse hell, The Doctor really needs to stop referring to themself as the Last of the Time Lords. And while we're on the subject, why are they still calling themself a Time Lord at all? It's never really clear whether "Time Lord" refers to all Gallifreyans, or just specific members of the race-- the implications are heavily on the former. But either way, they're not a Time Lord-- either they're not a member of the species, or they're the equivalent of a Bishop leaving the church, sometimes going to war against the church, but still calling themselves a Bishop.

*excepting certain aspects of the Eighth***** Doctor's otherwise side-canonical adventures that he references in The Night of the Doctor.

A new Canon Fodder has dropped, Halopedians! This one covers various subjects such as the name of the next Halo novel, details from the previous Waypoint Chronicle, and a brand new Armory Infinitum.
