twelfth doctor any flag you want. i just love to see you draw him
file name 12 aro but this is the agender flag which is what I meant . he's just got that uhh A swag or something. he's real Outside of. not even applying to
[Image description: Digital drawing of the Twelfth Doctor from Doctor Who in shades of green and gray. He's grinning and looking to the right. End description.]
Enemies-to-lovers pairing who spend a few years trying to make it work as a couple, then mutually agree to go back to trying to kill each other for real because it's hotter that way.

Here's a great bit of trivia about the episode recovery:
It was previously believed that the first time a main Dr who character got shirtless on screen was Ben Jackson in The Smugglers:
Remarkably we can now push this important milestone all the way to Daleks Master Plan:
Not only has he stolen Michael's first place crown he is hopelessly outclassing him on nipple size :(
[ID:
Image 1: telesnap of Michael Craze as Ben Jackson in 60s Doctor Who serial The Smugglers. He is shirtless and in the process of putting on a new shirt. He has average sized nipples.
Image 2: image of Peter Purves as Steven Taylor in 60s Doctor Who serial The Daleks' Master Plan. He is lying down shirtless and dishevelled wearing a sling. One of his nipples is visible and it is pretty large.
Image 3: screencap of tumblr tags: "golly gee peter who let you have such big nipples?"]
Doctor Who | The Daleks' Master Plan
[Image description taken from alt: A gif from the Doctor Who episode, "The Daleks' Master Plan." The Doctor is talking with Steven while holding up the taranium that was stolen from the Daleks. The Doctor tells Steven, "You're a very privileged person. Do you realise very few people have seen this in this universe?" end description]

short kiss

- THE MAGICIAN-
It has the meaning of paying tribute to the cure
[Image description: Art of the Twelfth Doctor from Doctor Who. He poses by crossing his stretched-out arms and spreading his fingers dramatically. There are white sparkly stars on his fingertips, along with yellow sparkles around him. He's captioned "The Magician". End description.]
when you think about it it's really funny that the entire premise of extremis relies on the idea that the ultra-advanced alien species forgot to seed their random number generator
also what do you mean 'even the most insignificant program knows how to email'. do you know how many steps go into email. staring down my calculator asking it who taught it IMAP
anyway if you're an alien species looking to make a perfect digital twin of humanity here are some tips:
seed your random number generator. for goodness sake. it's not hard. every time it's accessed, if need be. or use one of those lava lamp wall things. literally anything so you're not reeling the same set of numbers off every time. it's not hard. i know it's more work but it's worth it
keep backups. i'm serious. i know it's a lot of data but at LEAST every internal second come on guys
similarly: keep track of who has realised it's a simulation. literally just a boolean for each sentient creature. true for true and false for false. and if one of them switches to true take note of it if you want but do NOT kill them off. killing them off results in an inaccurate simulation . simply roll back to the last backup (KEEP BACKUPS) and stop them thinking that. if you have the code to make them 'think' that in the first place then you have the code to make them unthink it. and if you don't have that then MAKE THAT.
do not give the simulation internet access?? yes i understand you need some data exchange but here is my recommendation for you. notice how the simulation is not allowed to send information off-planet. DO NOT LET THE SIMULATION SEND INFORMATION OFF-PLANET. ACCESS RIGHTS. PLEASE.
essentially, you have to realise that you are conducting an Evil Plan and people will inevitably want to stop you. therefore, some basic cyber security is required. please and thank you. go forth and please don't conquer actually i quite like living here without alien overlords
[Image description taken from alt: A screenshot of a Canva whiteboard showing a diagram, with a grey oval labelled 'EARTH' and a blue oval labelled 'NOT EARTH'. In the centre of 'NOT EARTH' is an oval labelled 'processers + cache + whatever else idk. i don't even want to think about the levels of multithreading that must be happening in here'. Connected to it with two two-way arrows labelled 'PHYSICAL! WIRES' are rectangles labelled 'BIG MASSIVE DATA CENTRE' and 'backup data centre. (IN A DIFFERENT BUILDING)'. Below the processers, and connected to it with a two-way arrow labelled 'physical wire', is an oval labelled 'input/output handler'. A rectangle labelled 'whatever you use to check up on what's going on, idc' connects with a two-way arrow labelled 'physical wire!!!' to the input/output handler. In the 'EARTH' oval is a rectangle labelled 'surveilance / data gathering devices'. It's attached with a dotted arrow labelled 'wireless, sigh' pointing away from it to the input/output handler. Across the arrow is a red squiggle labelled 'FIREWALL for malware detection and 1-way data flow'. A two-way arrow labelled 'i don't care' connects the surveillance devices with a rectangle in 'NOT EARTH' labelled 'if you really need to control the input devices then sure i guess'.

DOCTOR WHO | Dark Water
“Stop it with the eyes. Don’t do that with the eyes. How do you do that anyway? It’s like they inflate.”
[Image description: Gifs of a scene from the Doctor Who episode Dark Water. Clara and the Twelfth Doctor are in the TARDIS.
Clara: You're going to help me? Doctor: Well, why wouldn't I help you? Clara: Because of what I just did. I just- Doctor: You betrayed me. Betrayed my trust, you betrayed our friendship, you betrayed everything that I've ever stood for. You let me down! Clara: Then why are you helping me? Doctor: Why? Do you think I care for you so little that betraying me would make a difference?
The last gif shows Clara staring at the Doctor in shock. End description.]

Image 12: Song lyrics. And I was so young when I behaved twenty-five Yet now, I find I've grown into a tall child And I don't wanna go home yet
Image 13: An excerpt of a book. “Then… They’re dead?” “You couldn’t have known,” the Doctor told her quietly. “And they would have killed us. You had to do it.” “I always have to, don’t I?” Ace said. “It’s why you keep me around.”
Image 14: A screenshot of Ace from The Curse of Fenric, from just after they escape the exploding lab. Ace, on her hands and knees, looks up at the off-screen Doctor, who has a hand on her shoulder, with a tear in her eye and a devastated, angry expression.

How about we all stop talking for a little while

makes me insane that this was cut from the final episode. what the fuck did you mean by this, steven
"who loved you" is in the final cut but the scene is generally played for typical moffatesque comedy ("alien character is being hit on by a human woman and isn't really into it haha funny"). this bit of the doctor falls script will haunt me until my dying days. all this is canon to me btw i believe this happened to nardole and its core to my idea of who that guy is
[Image description: Excerpt from a script.
Hazran: So. Where are you from? Nardole's eyes flick to the too-close jugs. What does that mean? Nardole: I don't know. I was sort of found. Hazran: On a doorstep? Nardole: on a slave ship, so I'm told. Hazran: Who loved you? Nardole: (Almost laughs) Sorry, what - loved me? Hazran: well somebody brought you up. (A beat). Quite well, I should say.
Nardole: Thank you. But he doesn't elaborate - typing away. Hazran: I see. You don't want to talk about Nardole: I can't talk about it. Memory wipe. First twenty years, phht! Hazran: Who would do that to a person? Nardole: Me. It was me. I did it to myself. Hazran: ...why? Nardoler: No idea, I wiped that too. My first memory of being alive, is waking up crying.
