Classic Who & DWEU Meet and Greet

[classicwho-meetngreet]

Welcome!

Do you post about Classic Doctor Who, the Doctor Who or Bernice Summerfield novels, the Big Finish spinoffs, or any of the even wilder and weirder spinoffs out there? Or would you like to follow people who do? This is your hub to find others in the fandom!

FAQ:

How does this blog even work? - If you want to promote your blog, hop over to the submissions tab (it says “Introduce Yourself”) and answer the questions there. The submission will go into our queue and will be posted soon! If you want to find new friends in the fandom, just follow the blog or scroll through the archives and you’ll hopefully see exciting new blogs introducing themselves.

Who are you, anyway? - I’m Aurelia, my main is lurking-latinist. I’m just doing the administrative work to make this blog exist, I’m not in charge of anything in particular!

What do you mean by Classic Who and DWEU? - Classic Who is the version of Doctor Who that aired before the 2005 revival. The DWEU (Doctor Who Expanded Universe) consists of the many BBC-authorized and not-technically-not-authorized audio dramas, novels, short stories, and graphic novels that also tell Doctor Who-related stories, including spinoffs like Bernice Summerfield, Gallifrey, The Diary of River Song, and Jago & Litefoot. I’m going to make a somewhat arbitrary decision and say that this blog isn’t focused on the televised spinoffs Torchwood, Class, or the Sarah Jane Adventures, since those are bigger and have their own fandom spaces. (Of course, if you post about those and Classic/DWEU, this blog is for you!)

I post about other things too, is that ok? - Absolutely! As long as you regularly post about Classic Who and/or the DWEU, even if you post about lots of other topics, it’s perfectly fine to submit your profile. In fact, I bet lots of us have more than one fandom or interest in common!

I’m not a content creator, is that ok? - As long as you post something--whether that’s fic, art, memes, headcanons, weird TARDISwiki facts, rambles in the tags, reblogs with comments, or anything else--then please do submit your profile! Transformative work, commentary, encouragement, and information are all valuable contributions to fandom.

I’m brand new, is that ok? - Again, as long as your blog isn’t completely empty, feel free to submit your profile!

I submitted a profile but now I want it taken down. - That’s just fine! Message us and we’ll take it down ASAP.

I submitted a profile but now I want to change it. - If it’s substantively changed (e.g. you started posting art when you didn’t before, or you got into a new spinoff, or you changed your URL), just submit a new profile! If you just want to correct a small error, message us and we’ll see what we can do.

Name: Gaia or Kaiko

Pronouns: she/her with a sprinkle of they/them and fae/faer

Age: 27 in November

I have autism and charge syndrome, and am aromantic asexual.

My main site is at www.ncls.it and my Oshi mark is 💖🎀🌸

I rarely watch Classic Who or any doctor who at all, I mostly just hang out, but I do reblog a lot. It’s likely that soon I will be interested in something completely else instead. In fact I was in the classic who fandom even before watching the show, due to MLP memes about Doctor Whooves. Often I’m more interested in it academically, and thus propably will end up doing something completely else instead.

But I have a doctor who forum named trakenbase or doctor who central. https://trakenbase.freeforums.net/

Visit our forum at: trakenbase.freeforums.net

Usually I don’t really tend to care about the Doctor or the companions. And if I do it’s just temporary.

Is it mostly Luvic of Traken that I’m currently mostly invested in, even if it will propably change soon. As I feel that I’m propably more academically interested in him than anything else. Usually when I’m interested in something it only lasts about an year and then there’s no curiosity.

Yes, I have seen Logopolis, I just deem this to be one of the shows where Everything Can Come Back.

A lot of Doctor who that I post is thus, late four early Fivey.

Other than Doctor who I often post Pokémon (and pokemiku) and the sims.

But I often feel like I only post about those three fandoms the most, and that I was in those three fandoms the most and for the most time, not because I like the three of them the most, but because they had the most content.

Guess what? New Doctor Who fanwork exchange!!

paranoidangel on Dreamwidth (@paranoidangel42 here) is hosting an exchange called tardis_festivities, with signups open NOW (24 November) through 2 October, set to reveal on 23 November–for obvious reasons, and this means it won’t overlap too much with December exchanges. It accepts fic and art, with a minimum of 300 words or a nice sketch, so it’s pretty low-stakes. If you are at all interested in Doctor Who and fanwork exchanges, check it out!!

No need to have a Dreamwidth account, just an AO3 one.

Spread the word–I think this is going to be really, really fun!

[classicwho-meetngreet]

Your URL: @portuguesedisaster

- What can people call you: Carol is fine

- What eras or spinoffs do you post about: Classic, New, Big Finish, Novels and whatever part of Doctor Who I'm currently exploring

- What type of content do you make: Mostly reblogs, but also reviews, opinions and the occasional odd fanfic. Really almost everything in the universe.

- Are there particular characters or relationships you focus on: It again depends on what I'm watching/reading/listening, but the most likely is Jamie/Second doctor (either platonic or romantic), Donna and Ten (Platonic) and i'm a Lucie apologist

- Is your blog safe for minors: aaa, mostly. There's some swearing when I get really pissed at something but i do not any post any sexual content or something like that.

- What do you wish people would ask you more about: I don't really have nothing special that I would wish people to ask, but I'm always open to character discussion, DW universe or just to just talk about life.

- Non-DW topics or interests that you also post a lot about: whatever I'm obssessing over at the time, really. Julie and the phantoms, books, percy jackson, shadowhunters, CoHo, books vs shows or just my general life are some examples but really this is just a fraction of my interests

[classicwho-meetngreet]

- Your URL: @circular-time

- What can people call you: CT, @circular-time , Fandom Auntie, Whovian, Perplexing Scrubwren, whatever

- What eras or spinoffs do you post about: Classic, New (especially Twelve and Thirteen), Big Finish. "Splendid chaps, all of them." I started watching when Jodie was in nappies, so 80s Who is my default.

- What type of content do you make: Meta and thinky thoughts, fanart, fanfic, and I USED to write Big Finish reviews on vhswhovian.com

- Are there particular characters or relationships you focus on: Relationships: Thasmin, Fifth Doctor and Nyssa on Big Finish (I call them "Team Nerd"). Characters: NYSSA, but really I'm fond of every classic companion from Ace to Polly to Evelyn Smythe. (I like the new companions too, I just haven't known them as long, and/or I still need to catch up on most of S2-7).

- Is your blog safe for minors: Er. 99% yes?  My blog may have occasional swearing or mentions of sexuality, but what characters get up to in private? That's what AO3 is for and I'm not telling you my sekrit pseud for that.

- What do you wish people would ask you more about: I get excited when I see younger fans discovering and enjoying classic Who despite it being, you know, slow and a bit hokey compared to modern SF, Also: Who reflects the time in which it was made, in the past century as much as now. I may be able to give you some insights about classic Who from the perspective of a living fossil someone who lived through those times. On the other hand, I haven't seen a lot of classic Who since I was a child or a naive 80s teen. So I'm constantly learning things about stories and characters I've loved for decades through the fresh eyes of newer fans. :)

- Non-DW topics or interests that you also post a lot about: @circular-time is almost all Doctor Who, but I'll drop in the odd Blake's 7 or post that was probably meant for one of my other blogs. My primary blog @auronlu is for Final Fantasy/gaming; it's dormant, but Tumblr won't let me anoint a different blog as primary so you may see replies/likes from there. @pumpkin-belly is for my cat; @x-cetra is for shitposts miscellaneous fandoms (mostly Trek and LOTR), geology, space, Egypt, and archaeology, progressive politics, and quite a lot of dumb Tumblr humor.

- Where else can you be found: Twitter - TrakenTourist | AO3 - Circular Time (Genfic only *cough* )
