try to rise above the reproductive frenzy of your noisy little food chain and contemplate friendship. i'm in too many fandoms and hit the post limit on a regular basis. good luck out there // shey/heir/it/its please title is a description of the other from lungbarrow by loomlight
ok new pinned post that’s just a reblog of my old pinned post because i like it too much
hi, i’m trixie! i use shey/heir & it/its pronouns. this is my main blog (you can also find me @goldenzingy46butwriteblr (fanfiction), @trixierosewrites (original fiction), @chronicwhorebatman (original batman posts), and uh. like 15 other blogs) and i post a lot about doctor who, and also a bunch of other stuff (heated rivalry, batman, the terror, classics, malevolent, star wars, etc.)
my ao3, nsfw anon collection, my website (to be linked when it’s less lorem ipsum and more actual text)
commonly used tags:
-> trixie.text (original posts)
-> trixie’s own personal hell (personal tag, but you can rb all of this or interact with it however you like. i don’t care)
-> trixie's vaguely interesting dw posts (dw posts i think are interesting)
-> trixie thonks on dw (dw meta)
-> trixie's dw episode musings (posts i’ve made while watching/listening to a specific episode, or things about a specific episode. also tagged as interesting if i think they’re interesting. trixie's dw episode musings: [number] or something is appended per doctor; bf is appended for big finish; bf[number] per big finish doctor. example: trixie's dw episode musings: 5; trixie's dw episode musings: bf5)
-> otherposting (posts about the other. there’s some subtags on this but you can probably find those by clicking on the otherposting tag. i am lazy)
-> trixie’s malevolent livelisten (what it says on the tin)
-> a couple other liveread tags (tlt & wicked off the top of my head. all doctor who novels are just tagged with the name of the novel)
-> vent (i used to have a me specific tag but i’ve stopped using it because i forgot what it was)
-> trixie bonk tag (asks; dw asks are also tagged dw asks)
-> [jazz music stops] (original politics posts. you’ll see these more around uk general elections than anything else)
-> ref/fave/top fave/top fucking fave/jfj frequent rewatch tag/poll tag (various tags i use for refinding things)
if i didn’t answer your ask: i will. i just have every disorder under the sun so sometimes it takes a while
if you think i’ve blocked you: uhhh. i might’ve. i block for: bigotry, being a dick, terfs/radfems, anyone using tma/tme, pissing me off, being annoying, disliking fifth/eleventh/twelfth doctor, being wrong about doctor who, character hate in the main tags, asking me for money more than once when i don’t know you, posting about weight loss, misuse of a tag i like (off the top of my head, “the doctor” & “best enemies”). so. as you can imagine i have blocked a lot of people.
i appreciate being told if i’ve reblogged something that’s ai art or being used to fuel a form of bigotry. if you’re my friend/mutual you can also ask me to delete something posted by someone specific. i don’t respond to anonymous asks that say “don’t reblog from xyz they’ve been cancelled” 👍
i've had this blog since i was fourteen years old. if you find a post from years ago and i'm saying something stupid, i was probably being fourteen about it :/
you can tag me in tag games and you can always send me asks and you can send me a message. worse case scenario i don’t respond because i am bad at responding. i appreciate it anyway :)
one of these big new indie cartoons should release with an exclusive adopt of like the main character. pay up 10000 dollars to be the only one whos legally allowed to draw pomni. i feel like the resulting fandom drama would change the face of the internet it would be so cool
also we have GOT to collectively come to terms with the fact that me or any other stranger online disliking or even making fun of something you like is not saying “no fun allowed” “no one can ever enjoy this” you have simply got to grow a spine and be able to like the shit you like. you don’t even have to defend it! like 90% of the media i really enjoy is divisive and half my friends actively hate it. i really don’t give a fuck though because i like it. you can write whatever you want! you’re allowed! even if it’s MY least favorite genre or style of writing and i have active distaste for it!
i don’t think you understand i totally thought we were gonna die locked up in this castle but this fucking genius was like “im going to invent a way for humans to fly”. shout out to my dad he’s a real one fr
LMAOOO this dude told me to be careful as he affixed the wings to my back…..dad no offense but you just invented flying and we have to go high enough to avoid the king’s archers. soo
i don’t understand why but he’s coming closer. he is not supposed to stray from his path, lest the sun fall from the sky. why does he look so anguished to see me?
i pray to him just in case. i am grateful he tried. my palms are red and cracked from where they touched divinity. the ground does not look any closer than it was
i have not seen my father since we took flight…i hope he escaped. i hope he will not witness this. i wish i could tell him how joyful these wings made me before the wax melted
please please please i have no coin for the ferryman if i am to die now i will never reach the realm of hades please turn me into a bird any bird or a bug or something anything please please pleasepleaseplease
okay we NEED to put “camp” up on a shelf where people can’t reach it too because i just saw someone call the mario movie camp like girl what in the fresh hell are you talking about 😭
Here's some of the notes, starting with the things multiple people brought up:
SHRIMP COCKTAIL:
banahbanah: #flashback to that one fic where Peter Parker frets about drinking shrimp cocktail because of the alcohol
generaldeliciousness: adding: what a prawn/shrimp cocktail is
#why is your character turning it down because they're under 21 #do you think prawn cocktail is a cocktail #this lives in my brain rent-free constantly #the rest of the fic was so normal #and good enough that i'll still re-read it #but bro
And then many, MANY, people wondering if this was actually authour mistake, since Peter really would do this!
POMEGRANATES:
zhajhassa: #haha where's that post that was like someone describing someone eating a pomegranate but they ate it like an apple

livebloggingmydescentintomadness: #the one that drove me nuts was when a character set aside a batch of PASTA DOUGH 'to rise' #pasta doesn't have yeast!! #it does need to REST but it will never RISE #you do not want an airy crumb on your noodles

violetfairydust: #i once read a fic where the flight time from london to seattle was 3 hours
purekesseltrash: One time, in a fic set specifically in Des Moines, IA, two of the characters casually drove 20 minutes to the ocean. The memory continues to delight me. I want to know where that author thought that Iowa was.
Quick PSA cause I keep seeing it in fics and it trips my brain every time: Prosthetic is an adjective. The noun for what Jack Abbot has attached to his leg instead of his foot is a prosthesis.
Saying ‘he removed his prosthetic and laid down’ is the same as saying ‘he removed his red and laid down’. See how it’s missing a word? You either say prosthetic leg or you say prosthesis on its own 👍🏻
so embarrassing to watch yourself become obsessed with a character that feels tailor made for you specifically to become obsessed with. feels like i fell into a trap made just for me. like damn they got me. those are all the things i like and go crazy for
