this is it. my favorite quote in the entire series.
(via randomocityjunction)
Tinkering the TARDIS with a normal screwdriver because your “sonic” one is too much technology sometimes…
The 12th Doctor is systematically shedding the things he’s used as security blankets throughout his previous incarnations - He’s going back to his ‘roots’ and I think this is something we shouldn’t ignore. The thought I keep coming to is that he’s Weening himself off of the things he’s relied on for so long.
Rather than using the Tardis computers to solve problems, he writes them down on chalkboards. He’s getting more intimate with his thought processes. I don’t know about you, but when I bend myself over a piece of paper and write things out, I’m in a headspace where the gears are -really- turning.
Episode 3, he’s got to think his way out of a situation without the aid of his Sonic Screwdriver and in Episode 4, we’re seeing him separating himself from his dependence on it to do -everything- for him. And we see him pushing Clara into the Tardis to face things by himself. He’s weening himself off her, too.
This Doctor is a lot more actively introspective. I think we’re going to see a lot more of him exploring what makes him Tick and I think we’re going to see more of his past as he tries to decide if he really WANTS to find Gallifrey again, and maybe ‘go home’.

got a song in my head
and it’s driving me mad
no more, no more
all I have seen, take it from me
I thought it would be nice to upload my geeky cards as separate posts, so to include some close up details and a gif showing the working process!
I had an awful lot of fun drawing this card, but I did have a minor freakout once I started and realised how many characters I was going to be drawing!
Rejected ideas included:
- 8th Doctor lighting a christmas pudding…and accidentally also a time lord’s robes (still visible in the sketch)
- 9th doctor making banana daiquiris
- Amy and Jamie doing a highland dance…got to save that for another pic, I think…
Card for sale on redbubble here! (plus mugs, tote bags, cushions…)
Rest of my geeky cards (including Sherlock, Harry Potter and the Hobbit can be found on my tumblr here!)
This is fabulous!

(Doctor Who and the Terror of the Autons by Terrance Dicks, p. 127, aka. the scene where the Doctor explains how he stole the Master’s dematerialization circuit and stranded him on earth)
I. wow. Much subtle there Doctor.

Cecil. She/her. During the day I sit in libraries staring at books. During the night I write queer fanfiction with a historical slant.
Some not-so-random facts: Gay space lizards are the best lizards. Star Trek is my life. I have too many DS9 ships. Classic Who and the Eighth Doctor Adventures make me grin stupidly. Kelas Parmak is the best. I will defend historically accurate portrayals of Alan Turing to the last drop of blood. Likes and asks end up in the name of @apolesens-otheraccount, because Tumblr doesn't have a way of changing which blog is your primary one. Nothing happens over there - this is the one to follow.
