i've been working hard on this fic since april and, at risk of overhyping it, it's probably my favorite plot i've ever come up with. to any who choose to read it, i hope you enjoy! it's (almost) all finished on my end and will be updated mondays and thursdays.
@c0wb0yandy i have very fond memories of reading your mick-centered fic while on break at work and having to get up and walk around bc it made me feel Emotions... i don't tend to read fic that doesn't have nureyev as a prominent character but i'd totally read another mick fic from you!
@c0wb0yandy i just feel bad bc 90% of my fic can't really include him (bc they're set during s3 or w/e) and the one time i write an oldtown fic he's prob the character that gets the least focus just bc of how the narrative turned out. SOMEDAY tho. someday i will write something mick-focused
@Northisnotup you're valid and my deepest (not so secret) secret is that i'm low-key a big name fan in the tumblr one piece fandom on a different account and a scene in my most popular fic was inspired by enies lobby
@onetiredb0y "the year of intelligent tigers"! the doctor plays violin, has a bf named karl, and befriends a bunch of alien tigers. it's so good. his long-running male companion in the books is also word-of-god confirmed to be bi and in love with him.
@onetiredb0y i consider eight the winner bc he fully has a word of god confirmed boyfriend in one of his novels (yes he's my favorite doctor, yes because of his novels, yes i'm a nerd) but this is true, it's an inherent part of playing the doctor
@onetiredb0y paul mcgann!! (eighth doctor, fruitiest of doctors) he's actually the bloody guy who was my ao3 icon for ages lol. also it's hilarious how true that is of mcgann's character in the soap too, tho i will die on the hill of believing he was intentionally coded as gay
me: im finally almost finished w/ this fic i've been working on for 7 months!! i can start posting it soon!!
beta: here are some completely correct & valid reasons why you should add a whole other chapter & change this, this and this section
me, dying: i'm... almost finished...
@onetiredb0y *soap lol
also i'm like 90% sure i met in peter capaldi /in 2018/ so i'm so sorry for stealing that from you 😔 i hope you get to meet him eventually
@onetiredb0y as someone who was previously obsessed w/ a DIFFERENT old man who played the doctor, watched a year's worth of a terrible british soup that he was a villain in & then wrote 200k of unposted fic abt said villain being in gay unrequited love, you'll find no judgement from me here
@onetiredb0y judging by your display name, that 2005 sitcom is totally the thick of it, isn't it?? 👀 i've only seen a couple eps of it but it seems fun lol. also. in the interest of bragging rights i have actually met peter capaldi (at a con), a fact i somehow only remembered just now
@onetiredb0y i started watching when s5 had just come out and have kept up with it since, though i go in and out of having it as an actual Interest... i originally watched the seasons out of order for some reason and it definitely hits different when you go through from start to finish
my favorite way of starting a new media is knowing that gay stuff happens in it but not knowing when or with who so i spent the whole time eyeing each of the characters and their relationships like "gay??? homosexual???? gay???"
