Reminders for fanfic writers who think it “doesn’t count”
✦ Your writing counts. like, a lot. If someone felt something because of what you wrote, then it matters. That scene you almost didn’t post? Yeah. Believe me, someone out there bookmarked it for a reason.
✦ Writing existing characters doesn’t make it “less than.” You’re building arcs, crafting dialogue, emotion, pacing. You’re studying character psychology like a scientist. That’s not “just fanfic,” that’s storytelling.
✦ “but it’s just fanfic” ...no. STOP, it’s craft. It’s understanding tone. It’s hitting emotional beats. It’s layering theme and backstory and prose into something people feel. You’re doing the work, you just don’t get graded on it. (Which, honestly is a blessing.)
✦ Writing fanfic means you love stories enough to live inside them. You care, deeply. You care enough to reimagine, to explore, to add something of yourself to a world you didn’t create and somehow still make it feel brand new.
✦ Someone out there rereads your fic like it’s their favorite book. Maybe they’ve saved a line to their notes app,or they quote it to a friend. Maybe they just think about it when they’re having a bad day. That little fic you almost deleted, it’s comfort now.
✦ Your comments section is real. Every “I needed this” and “this made me cry in a good way” is proof, you don’t need a book deal to matter. You don’t need a publisher to have an impact, because you already do.
FANFIC IS WRITING! Fanfic is yours.
You’re not “just” anything. You’re a writer, own it. Be proud of that.
Fic : Night Blooms
Apologies in advance – it's been a while, and I've clearly forgotten how to do this.
Fic : Night Blooms
Pairing: Nine/Rose
Rating : Adult
Length : 522 words
The air in the room was warm and sweetly scented by perfumed blooms, that grew wild in the gardens outside the open windows.
The room itself was bathed in a darkness softly kissed by flickering candlelight, and a ghost white moon.
It was a room of simple necessity, offering no more and no less than that which was required by weary travellers. The floor was plain wooden boards, aged and smoothed by time. The furniture was scant and simple; a chest of drawers, a mirror, a chair, and a bed.
In truth, they had only needed the bed.

While the Doctor/Rose tag on ao3 has a slow but steady stream of content coming out every day, I can’t help but feel that one day it’s going to eventually dry up. However I’ve come up with a solution.
Announcing the Doctorrose Fic Marathon
This fanfiction writing marathon will be set from September First (1st) to the Thirtieth (30th). The goal is to simply write as much fanfiction as you can in that month. Anyone can participate. Even if you haven’t written doctorrose fanfiction before. And you don’t even have to participate every day. There are only four (4) rules.
If you’re going to connect the stories, connect them via series instead of a single book
There is no set length. Write however long or short a fic you want.
Use the tag Doctorrose Fic Marathon on Archive of Our Own
And have fun!!
There is also a set of prompts you can follow if you’d rather have them as well. One for each day. Remember you don’t have to follow them if you don’t want to, and you don’t even have to do them in order. Or even combine them if that inspires you! The whole point of this is just to write.
Prompt 1: Alternate Meetings
It’s simple. Write another way the Doctor and Rose could’ve met. This is one of our less vague prompts. So if you feel like it’ll stifle you’re creativity? Go ahead and pick something else from the list.
Prompt 2: Holding Hands
If there’s anything the Doctor and Rose know how to do, it’s hold hands. Whether it’s while running, for comfort, or just because. Run wild with your imagination.
Prompt 3: First Kisses
Kisses! The Doctor and Rose have had several, but were they the first? That’s for you to write and for us to find out.
Prompt 4: Mutual Pining
The Doctor and Rose are known for being two idiots in love pining over each other. Give us a moment we haven’t seen before.
Prompt 5: Domestics
Nine famously said “I don’t do domestic.” Well we all know that’s a lie. Whether it be holding a friend’s baby, shopping, or changing sheets. Write a view into the Doctor and Rose’s domestic life
Prompt 6: Cuddling
Soft, sweet, classic. Everyone loves a good cuddle fic.
Prompt 7: Hurt/Comfort
It’s a classic theme for a reason. Go ham! Hurt us with your best shot. Make us fall apart. Then put us back together again.
Prompt 8: One Bed
The classic “only one bed” trope is so well known that it’s reached into popular consciousness. What better way to make the Doctor and Rose confront their feelings than bed sharing?
Prompt 9: Time Loop
It’s surprising that the only time loop story in Doctor Who is Heaven Sent. Time loops are a great way to tell a story for a character with regrets. And the Doctor and Rose have plenty.
Prompt 10: Jailbreak
There is a famous trope in Doctor Who fanfiction that I have noticed. The Doctor and Rose always mention the tens of times they got thrown in a jail cell. Let’s actually see it!
Prompt 11: Chase Sequence
The Third Doctor is known for his long vehicle chase sequences. Whether it be boats, cars, or motorcycles. I find it hard to believe the Doctor’s habits for a good chase sequence went away.
Prompt 12: Truth Serum
Truth Serum is one of those tropes that will never really go away, and has been apart of almost every fandom with even a modicum of fantasy or sci-if in it
Prompt 13: Declaration(s) of Love
The Doctor not telling Rose he loved her for the audience to hear is one of the most painful things in Doctor Who. Write a declaration of love, from the Doctor or Rose, (both works too) and get some closure.
Prompt 14: Meddling TARDIS
It’s so clear, given how much the TARDIS likes Rose (as proven by the books), that the TARDIS wants Rose and the Doctor to be together. And she is alive after all.
Prompt 15: Jealousy
Rose and the Doctor have both been jealous multiple times in the story and it never gets old. And the possibilities for angst are endless
Prompt 16: Multiple Doctors
Remember when Rose was almost in Day of the Doctor, but instead it was the Moment? So Rose technically wasn’t in DotD? Channel that rage and write one of the best things we’ll never get. Unless you count Journey’s End.
Prompt 17: Reunion
Reunion fics are the backbone of the Doctor/Rose tag with good reason. It’s one of the few things that can appease our aching souls.
Prompt 18: Playing with Hair
The Doctor and Rose both have really great hair. Yes, even Nine, and given how domestic they are, it’s a shame we never got to see them playing with each other’s hair.
Prompt 19: Girl in the Fireplace Fix-It
Now we enter what I call the Fix-It Trilogy. Three fix-it prompts that hit all the basics. Girl in the Fireplace, the episode that makes no sense in the context of the series.
Prompt 20: Doomsday Fix-It
Doomsday, the ending that broke our hearts.
Prompt 21: Journey’s End Fix-It
And Journey’s End. The ending that healed us, only to rip out our hearts all over again.
Prompt 22: Alternate Universe
This one is fun! Alternate universe can be anything. Whether it be canon divergence, or the Doctor and Rose meeting in a coffee shop. The world is your oyster.
Prompt 23: Historical
Rose never got a lot of chances to wear period wear in the show. It’s a shame since it led to such an iconic moment. “You look beautiful”
Prompt 24: Rose Meeting a Classic Doctor
The one thing we want that we can’t have.
Prompt 25: Wibbly Wobbly Timey Wimey
It’s a famous phrase and unlike the Time Loop prompt, this has a bit of wiggle room for what the parameters are. It could be a time loop, or a paradox!
Prompt 26: Chameleon Arch
The Chameleon Arch is one of the most fascinating pieces of Time Lord technology and has only been explored a couple of times in the show and the extended media. Go wild!
Prompt 27: Bad Wolf
This one is more up to you! Is Rose the Bad Wolf again, is she protecting the Doctor? Or has her biology been changed? There are many interpretations of this prompt and every possibility is exciting.
Prompt 28: The Oncoming Storm
The Doctor has been known to be protective of Rose to say the least. And sometimes the Doctor has to let everyone know why he’s called The Oncoming Storm.
Prompt 29: Soulmates
A good old fashioned soulmate au can never go wrong. There are so many to choose from! The possibilities are endless, let your imagination go wild!
Prompt 30: Wedding
And to close out the month weddings!! They could be at a wedding, they could be going to a wedding, or even having a wedding, just make it so the Doctor and Rose are involved with a wedding somehow.
RIP Tilly 2007 - 2021
My little baby girl Tilly, died on Tuesday 19th Jan. She was so very much loved. My heart is completely broken, and the tears won’t stop.
i’m reading billie piper’s autobiography and just the way she describes her relationship with christopher eccleston is sending me:
‘We’d talk about music, and he introduced me to Sam Cooke and Donny Hathaway. He’s a serious, intense actor, but he can do absolutely brilliant impersonations and every accent known to man. He has a great sense of humour and was always extremely self-deprecating. We’d collapse in the trailer during breaks and chat about our pasts, our families, our romances. (I was a wife; other men didn’t come into it. But it wasn’t doing my marriage very much good.) There was a lot of jokey banter, and I got on well with Chris’s driver, Robin. We’d gossip about who was in the papers, who was shagging whom on set - not literally on set, obviously, but back in the choice rented accommodation.’
then remember christopher eccleston had this to say about their time:
i have nothing else to really say but *chef’s kiss*
I may never recover from finding out today that Winona Ryder married Keanu Reeves while filming in Romania in 1992 and legit does not know if it was legally binding or not,,, 25 years later and she’s just like lol idk
I BEG YOUR PARDON
ABSOLUTELY NOTHING COULD HAVE PREPARED ME FOR THIS
Apparently, Francis Ford Coppola decided to get an actual Romanian priest to do the marriage scene in Dracula and then for some reason decided to do the entire marriage ceremony, and then when they were promoting Destination Wedding she was telling that story and realized midway through “Wait….does that make it legally binding?”
Actors AU prompt!
The Doctor and Rose starred opposite each other in a gorgeous drama filmed on location. During the story, their characters get married… but what they don’t realise is that they themselves are actually married.
Throw in healthy amounts of mutual pining and maybe a current significant other as an additional obstacle. (Or someone who has been trying to get together with one of them for months who reacts jealously when they find out?)
When they finally learn they’re married, it turns out the only way to get it dissolved is to go back to that country. And of course a private holiday to a romantic destination turns into a honeymoon when they realise they’re in love.
How to use this card:
If you get a “bingo” by using all the words in a row, column, or diagonal, upload your bingo card with the boxes you used crossed off!
Use as many words you want per fanwork.
You can use this card to take requests from your readers (readers can send you a word in your askbox they would like you to write). Just reblog this with a note that you are open to that if you are.
As the creator, I (Sky) don’t mind you using this for other ships/fandoms (with the credit still attached), but since this is a Doctor x Rose blog, we’re only reblogging Doctor x Rose pairings here.
Have fun and let us know if you have any questions!
(Thanks to @kelkat9 @lostinfic and all who have helped along the way this year and to @lizann5869 for inspiring it back last summer in the first place!)

When she'd first told the Doctor about her Christmas plan, his lack of enthusiasm for her 'leave of absence' from the TARDIS had only made her more determined.

Mitigating Circumstances
Pairing : Nine/Rose
Rating: All Ages
Link to Teaspoon : https://www.whofic.com/viewstory.php?sid=63110 The TARDIS had dimmed the lights a couple of hours ago, and since then the Doctor had been quietly walking the corridors, hands in pockets, head bowed, lost in his thoughts. He often spent his 'nights' this way when he couldn't sleep, which was more often than not. He didn't require much sleep, never had, and for the most part he resented 'downtime' — considering it a waste of perfectly good 'uptime'. But lately... lately he'd began to realise that there was a particular reason for his nocturnal restlessness. His late night walks through the TARDIS, no matter the route, no matter the variation, always finished at Rose's bedroom door. At first the Doctor had shaken his head, chuckled to himself and put it down to coincidence. But night after night, coincidence had turned into pattern, and pattern had turned into consistency and then, one night, standing outside Rose's room, he'd been struck by a singular, illuminating moment of clarity. It had been like being blindsided by a train. He was in love with her. Perhaps somewhat surprisingly, after his moment of epiphany, the Doctor had not ceased his solitary walks through the TARDIS, and he hadn't stopped absentmindedly finding himself outside Rose's door. But at least now he understood the madness behind it, and in that he found some small comfort. Tonight, like so many nights before, he turned the corner and walked quietly toward the door at the end of the corridor. As he drew closer he could smell the drifting scent of a perfume Rose had taken to wearing lately; it was sweet with notes of mandarin, honey and blackberry. The Doctor smiled to himself, looked up and found that tonight was not like so many other nights, as tonight, the door to Rose's room was ajar. He hesitated for a second, this minor but considerable change scattering his thoughts. His hearts pounded in his chest as he stared into the room. Rose was sitting cross legged on her bed, she was facing away from him, dressed in pyjamas, her hair pulled up in a messy ponytail tied with a red ribbon. She had something in her lap, but the Doctor couldn't see what — maybe a book. He stared at her a moment longer, breathed in the sweet scent of her perfume and then, taken by bravery or lunacy, he didn't know which, he opened his mouth to speak. "Rose... don't turn around. There's something I have to tell you. If you turn around then the words won't come. I'll think better of it and swallow them down." He hesitated a moment. "It's something I should have told you a long time ago to be honest. But it was never quite the right time. Ironic I suppose, me being a Time Lord." He sighed and began again. "Something's happened. Not sure when it happened exactly. But if I had to narrow it down I'd put it somewhere between 'run' and 'I'm so glad I met you'. You see, I wasn't paying attention, and it crept up on me. Not that that's an excuse for me not telling you. Well, I suppose it sort of is. I mean, I can't take all the blame, not really. There were mitigating circumstances... Slitheen, Daleks, pretty boys ... an' you being jeopardy friendly didn't help. Not that I'm blaming you. I'm really not. None of this is your fault. It's not like you knew, it's not like you could have guessed. Not with my poker face." He smiled ruefully. "Like I said, I should have told you a long time ago. So, me not telling you, well, it's my fault. Entirely my fault. And I completely understand if you... if you don't..." He took a breath. "I'm in love with you." He stared at Rose. She still sat facing away from him, silent. He bowed his head a moment. Of course she didn't feel the same. Why would she? He'd been a idiot to... He looked up and took a step forward. He pushed the door further open and headed into the room, ready to make amends, to apologise , to do whatever he had to do to make it right. As the bedroom door swung open, Rose glanced up and upon seeing the Doctor standing by her bed she offered a bright, wide grin. She swung her legs off the bed and pulled her earphones out, laughing as she held out a cassette player to him. "I couldn't sleep," she said with a smile, "so I went for a rummage in the wardrobe room and found this, an' a bunch of old tapes." She waved the cassette player at the Doctor. "Talk about old school!" She cocked her head as she smiled at him. "Is it yours?" Returning Rose's smile, the Doctor took the cassette player and looked it over. "Yeah... not seen it since the 1970's though." He gave it back to Rose. "That was my roller disco phase. I was pretty good." "I bet you were super groovy." Rose laughed. "Can we go?" she asked. "To the 70's?" "Yeah! To a roller disco." Her tongue slipped to the corner of her mouth as she smiled up at the Doctor. "You can show me your moves." He smiled at her. "I'll show you mine, if you show me yours." Rose's grin became wider still, as impulsively she reached up and kissed the Doctor's cheek. "You're on!" Dropping the cassette player down onto her bed Rose darted out of her bedroom and headed along the corridor that lead to the wardrobe room. The Doctor let out a breath. He loved her. He'd tell her one day. There was plenty of time.
Thanks to the overwhelming support by our wonderful fic writers, 31 Days of Ficmas is back for its third year! There are some new words on this list, in addition to old classics.
What is 31 Days of Ficmas?
It’s a writing challenge based on the old fanfic advent calendars that have been around for ages. We’ve provided you with a list of 31 words, one for each day in December. You can write a fic based on each one or combine a few prompts into one story, or just skip around and use the ones you like. No rules!
I don’t like holiday stories.
That’s okay! Very few of the words are strictly holiday-themed. Several of them are wintery instead of holiday, and honestly most of them could be used for completely non-seasonal fics.
Do I have to wait until December to write?
Nope! In fact, we encourage you to write ahead. As many people discovered last year, trying to keep up with a daily fic in December can be… its own kind of challenge.
Is there an AO3 collection like there was last year? What about a Tumblr tag?
Yep! You can add your stories to the 31 Days of Ficmas 2019 collection on AO3.
And on Tumblr, you can tag 31 Days of Ficmas. (Please tag doctorroseprompts as well. Finding things in our activity in December is impossible.)
If you have any other questions, you can send us an ask. For now, let us present…
