Roads? @jigowatt - Tumblr Blog

((Tumblr is personally oppressing me by not letting me post about seeing Christopher Lloyd at a con))

#OutOfClocks #I TRIED #BUT ILL TRY AGAIN TOMORROW #BC MY HEAD HURTS #NIGHT #ALSO HI ITS BEEN A MINUTE HASNT IT?#I CAME BACK BECAUSE I WENT TO A CON AND I THINK THE EVENTS THAT OCCURED THERE MAY. PERHAPS. BE RELEVANT TO THIS OLD BLOG.#anyway HOPEFULLY PHOTOS WORK LATER

@abouttiime just ran a stream of the BTTF trilogy and i was able to drop in for most of the third one! aka The Most Underrated One because there is sure some good stuff in it

it’s been too long, thanks rory for the movies and the trivia! :D

#my drawings #Marty McFly #Doc Brown #Clara Clayton #i cannot draw doc OR clara today but hey #i feel like i captured marty's general state of existence

((So I’ve been over here, of late, and only spiraling deeper into marvel-induced madness

also jules and verne are here but i’ve had a harder time clicking w them despite my many feelings and headcanons))

#OutOfClocks #never know til you try eh?#i guess it's just been too long since i checked in with the franchise #anyway if you want another eccentric doc except with more wizard powers do feel free to drop by

((enormous

sigh))

#OutOfClocks #it's late but have a These i guess #science isnt about why its about w h y n o t #i'll be back in the morning and face my regrets sometime after noon which is when i will awaken #but hey rp is a very whim-based hobby yes?#i have a good feeling #at least i do at 2am currently

((speaking of bad ideas, it occurs to me that i am still, somehow, in possession of this url))

#OutOfClocks #what if-... what if i set doc aside for a LITTLE while...#and just wrote his teenaged kids #(with SOME exceptions for like... CERTAIN people and also threads where he'd be useful as an NPC)

((Someone please physically restrain me from coming back to tumblr rp via a character i only know the faintest bit of, from one of the most absurdly expansive canons in fandom history, it’s not a good idea i’ll be in over my head))

abouttiime replied to your post:((Someone please physically restrain me from...

you should DO IT

((that is the opposite of stopping me))

#abouttiime #OutOfClocks #et tu rory?#pfffffff #no guarantees here but i'm t h i n k i n about it #marty doesn't need any more docs that can drag him into fricked up existential misadventures though #think of YOUR SON rory

#what if i made ONE. LAST. MAINBLOG.#and then made sideblogs off of it forever #maybe?#anyway i'm up to like 30 issues caught up with that OTHER doc with the magic and the 20 miles of floaty cape #not the beaniebaby chowdercatch one i mean the sad scruffy one with the axe that is constantly getting the tar beat out of him #OutOfClocks #also i mean my first blog WAS wheatley back before i even PLAYED p2 #so like maybe if i just YEET it'll go well

((So I caught up with the Time Train comics and hey

I love this timefam so much))

#OutOfClocks #my blog is a cryptid at this point lol #i miss it but I also dont think I have the energy to Do tumblr rp #maybe with the way it used to be #but not the current style I see around a lot #idk #also i accidentally read like 20 Doctor Strange comics in 2 days and i have decided I ALSO love this sad sassy indigestive wizard #that's not relevant to this blog but jsyk i have a powerful need to give stephen strange a hug #maybe i'll write him or somethin #but i dunno modern tumblr rp just has so many hoops to jump thru #maybe i;ll just make a blog for a classic character i love and use the default theme so people know what to heckin expect #anyway i'll still take asks here though #if i'm in a good mood i might even draw them #so that's an option

Guys I just realized something:

It is reasonable to assume that since Doc has approximately One Fuckzillion clocks, he has a broad range of makes and they span the full range between “fully electrical” and “fully mechanical”. Due to all the differences, there should be almost no physical or electrical way to set them all exactly the same amount behind*. There’s also the question of “why the hell do you want to do that anyway??? doc why are you messing with marty like this??”**

Anyway what I’m saying is Doc slowed down the flow of time in his garage. Instantaneous time travel as we’ve seen needs a load of power and careful infrastructure, but turning the speed up or down a little bit relative to the normal flow in one specific area? Seems like it might be a bit more doable. Could’ve been a calibration test OR he could’ve just been messing around, but either way Doc Brown can definitely do more Weird Time Stuff than we usually assume he can. He probably needed to be off-premises in order to be sure of the exact timing, hence, Marty,*** late for school again. (but kid that’s also on YOU why are you blowing up my amp when you should be at school five minutes ago you have a WATCH don’t you?)

*There may have also been some sort of remote control rig set to each and every one of them, but 25 minutes is weirdly specific and also i find that answer to be boring. It might also require modifications to antiques and I’m not sure if he’d actually be down with that, also why would you not test that while you’re at home?

**Daylight Savings is a pain and he’s probably forgotten it for at least ten years worth of his life

***According to Douglas Adams, phones should not work when time travel shtuff is involved, but if he didn’t slow it down all that much then you probably wouldn’t really be able to hear it. Or he stopped the experiment right before calling Marty. Either way.

#also i guess i'm some weird combination meta/fan blog now bc i dunno how i feel 'bout rp but i wanna shout about doc #Back to the Future #Doc Brown #Emmett Brown #bttf #so yeP #in other news my typewriter is being extremely silly and w e l p time to prove my engineering mettle i guess...#which got me thinking about weird tinker hobbies and here we are #anyway i'm sorry this reads slightly like a proof i can't help it #OutOfClocks

((*thumbs-up*))

#OutOfClocks #my drawings #first one was i couldn't make up my gd mind #so it probably doesnt time out correctly but i decided to try and be /clever/ or something with ptII marty #the second one is a mess i'm sorry i can't draw dogs #someday i will learn #he's supposed to be wagging his tail but it turned into FLOOF EXPLOSION

((tentatively: anybody have/want bttf-related drawing requests? i’m just plumb indecisive ‘bout what to draw tonight))

#OutOfClocks #am i here? we dont know #i might write fic again or something eventually. explore headcanons i have about the Boys #but gosh i am so out of the loop on here eh?#maybe i reboot as an ask blog...

an update

((^that mood

but at the same time, shoutout to Rory for that good good Clara Appreciation, I need to go and catch up on the Time Train comics now because thEM

I kind of forget how to do anything on here, like, at all, but i’m available for headcanon-badgering and asks possibly because infectious hype))

#OutOfClocks #it's been like a year since i've really been on this blog and the visceral reaction of ''THERE'S MY WIFE'' is still strong #i need to go back through All the bttf things tbqh #my college nerd club keeps trying to schedule a movie night for the trilogy but scheduling is hell #but like... the movies and the game n things #and also the musical #i have so many things i love i need to go back tooooo why are there so many that i love so much #but hey maybe i'll get back into writing Stuff soon i got myself a Smaller typewriter #good sensory input is surprisingly effective at bribing creativity #idk maybe i'll make this like... a drawn ask blog or something and write fic on the side who k n o w s

((what are good basic rules/channels for discords))

#OutOfClocks #i've never run one of these before but i just might've thrown one together?#u don't get to see it until tomorrow though so i dont come back to it in the morning and find everything actively on fire #it's called The Clock Tower and i have no idea if it'll die or not but I COULD TRY and small discord servers have been rather nice actually

((*comes skidding in via train after like 47 years*

HI HELLO FOLKS

I’m not dead, but uh, I dunno, still not really feeling the tumblr RP thing as of right now? I do feel a bit bad, I got some real awesome folks that I’d really enjoyed writing with, but-... Life, school, various such things have been afoot. D&D has taken over the entire RP-processing center of my brain and it is the goshdanged highlight of my week, holy crap. The writing portion of my brain has been a prequel Property of Hate fic as well, and I’m as good at procrastinating it as I am procrastinating my replies. My main social media site has been shifting in a thus-wise direction, and I’ve also been drawing a lot more than I used to, and also video games are a thing.

So... I don’t know if/when I’ll ever be properly “back” on here, but you all are still super awesome and I still love these darned characters! I got a Discord you can bother me for if you’d like. Maybe I’ll make that BTTF server or something...))

#concept: we all play d&d with our muses over discord #SMUSHTOGETHER all the things i like #pff #anywho it's been SUCH A LONG TIME i figured i should give some kinda update?#...at 1am on a thursday #bc thats how these things work right?#also another life update that hasn't been taking my time and energy but it's still cool is I GOT A SUMMER RESEARCH JOB #like it'd be rad if it were just an internship but ITS A 10 WEEK ACTUAL JOB AND I'M NERVOUSEXCITED #OutOfClocks #oh lordie i forgot to use my ooc tag after months of trying to use it on my personal blog because of the heckin comic!doc icon #emma is a mess: confirmed

((Me, easily stressed out by chatrooms: what if I made a BTTF discord))

#OutOfClocks #I DONT KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT HOW TO RUN A DISCORD #but like... If it were the small tumblr rp crowd...#it could be actually manageable?#oh also it would be a zone free from the ship whose name sounds like a small rodent species #no offense to small rodent species ofc #(full offense to That Ship)#but yeah like... what would be Good Channels what would I even do

Love Powered Time Train from yesenia-q-112204 on 8tracks Radio.

Hi! I made the playlist for Doc/Clara. I chose a lot of oldies, and all of them are about love! I hope you like it, and if you want me to add/change a song (or anything), please let me know!

((o m g

I have not listened through this yet but i’m gonna, it looks good))

#OutOfClocks #thank u and bless u again for sharing this #Doc Brown #Emmett Brown #Clara Clayton #the favorite cheesy goobers #they got a playlist now #heck yeah #ALSO unrelated but I love your icon? is that your dog? is it a bichon? he reminds me of my boy at home whom i miss very much #but aaaaaaaaaaa #i feel guilty for not being around very much lately and then get this but #thanks u #submission

((me: man it’s honestly so dorky that doc named his kids like that. “Jules” and “Verne”. That’d be like me naming my children “Gene” and “Roddenberry” lol wouldn’t that be something

also me, quite some time later, entirely unintentionally:

dammit...))

#OutOfClocks #my Trash Boy keeps having his name end up coinciding with things i did not anticipate #IT WAS A HEADCANON FOR A WEBCOMIC MIXED WITH A MUSIC MAN REFERENCE #and yet #here we are #i just realized this earlier and i'm like... laughing at myself for it #it technically counts because i identify as a writer and HAVE had extended conversations #in which one party thinks we're obviously speaking of baby names and i think we're obviously speaking of OC names for the entire duration #the other silly thing is how doc is about great scientists and it's like. lol. normal people don't do that #*immediately proceeds to delete 231894579 pictures on my phone of FICTIONAL scientists* nobody ever does that idk what youre talkin about #but now i want to specifically name a character Wesley. In order to do this properly. 'Roddenberry' is way too specific to work anywhere
