#chiaroscuroverse

hello, friends! i can't believe it's been twelve years since i decided to de-lurk and jump in to fandom spaces. i've made so many friends here, and even though we live in the worst timeline, fandom shenanigans and friends here have made it so much better. thank you all for being here. cheers!

here's a round up for my blog pages, for any new folks or people who typically use mobile:

about / fic recs / tags / how to tumblr / & x-kit / PCOS

there’s 18 years’ worth of doctor/rose (mostly, but far from entirely, nine/rose) fic recs in those pages, between teaspoon and here and AO3, and ten years’ worth of extensive tumblr tagging, so go nuts! ;)

speaking of fic, there are two things in my tumblr experience of which i am the most proud: collaborating on two amazing stories with @chiaroscuroverse, and coining the term "smupdate" way back in 2015. :')

---------------

a round up of some of my most used tags:

about fleur / fleur replies / fleur does the meme / fleur has an OP tag / christopher eccleston / nine/rose / simm spiral / film recs / i want this dress / pink

---------------

i'm also more active on ravelry and goodreads these days; if we know each other and you want to find me elsewhere and nerd out with me about yarn or books, send me an ask or an IM and let me know!

---------------

let's do a sleepover weekend thing to celebrate:

tell me about your favorite blogs and i’ll @ them

rec me something: fic, books, movies, tv, music, etc.

tell me what your favorite old movie is

send me a pun or a nerdy fact

tell me about your cat, if you have one

tell me what you're crafting/cooking/making

send someone a sweet anon ask (i won’t know if you do this, of course, but you’re welcome to tell me that you did!  i love knowing when people are sharing the love.)

Haha. This is the last fic in my Embracing Life verse (which includes the very first fic i ever posted - you can guess how long it’s been sitting in my WIP folder). Rose is pregnant and she doesn’t want Ten (her husband and father of the baby) to deliver their son. It is mostly just an idea, but there is some dialogue as well. Very bare bones.

“I’ve decided I want you to deliver the baby.”

“We decided that ages ago. I’ve already got the birthing room set up.”

“But not you you.”

“What?”

“Another you. I want this you holdin’ my hand.”

“But Rose-“

“Which one’s most competent? Not the celery one or the one with the coat I’m guessing.”

“But Rose! I don’t trust anyone but myself.”

“No. I don’t want you pokin’ around down there.”

“I got you pregnant. I’ve already poked around down there.”

Rose crossed her arms and glared. “You’re really making me not want to have sex with you ever again.”

“You're the one that started it!”

“Which you is most competent?”

“Me, this me!”

She turned her back on his and counted to ten, before turning back around. “Fine we’ll go to New New York and i'll have a cat nun deliver my baby.”

“Rose you’re being a little un-“ he clamped his teeth together.

Rose lifted an eyebrow. “How was that sentence going to end?”

Ok, I have no recollection of what that is, and I haven’t opened that document since 2014, I’m concerned it’s going to be underwhelming...

Here’s how it begins:

Most mornings they wake up under the same blanket with their heads on the same pillow. And then he smiles. Every morning that he wakes up next to her, despite her morning breath and messy bed head, he smiles just like the first time. And it really doesn’t matter where they are.

 Seeing as how the Doctor had figured out within minutes something it took them months to calculate, they rapidly offer him a job a the Torchwood Archive. It’s nothing glamourous or high in the hierarchy but he has his own office and plenty of tools to tinker with and he gets to show off. Rose enrolled in the training school and works a few hours as a translator, working on 20th century documents. Rose takes care of the finances and they manage to put a little money on the side until they can afford their own place.

Oh, I see, they really lose the Tardis and get stuck there and what they said about a house with windows and carpets and a mortgage really happens.

Thank you so much!!

This was a project that has nommed most of my time since, what, January?

I did a full-on Snoopy Happy Dance (TM) when I finished a few days ago!! As of a few days ago, that’s 3009 pieces of docxrose fanfiction in a database saved on my very own computer and changes made to all 142 lists we’ve posted so far!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hahaha, you’re welcome?

Thank you for the lovely feedback! 💖

Also to everyone else who left feedback in some form, I really appreciate it! Thanks 💖 I’ll hijack this post for a few more replies to comments, because tumblr doesn’t allow direct replies in the notes through side-blogs, afaik...

BTW, I had to check my typing so many times because I was sure autocorrect would have me saying I was a "horny whore." 😂🙄

Oh my. 🤭 Autocrrect can be evil, I agree heartily with that - this one was kinda amusing, though! 🤭😂
