maybe i have a thing for older woman

David Tennant is an accomplished veteran actor with many well deserved accolades and yet I can’t help but hear the words “Ten Inch Tennant” whenever I see his face.

#that’s one pre safe search google I’ll never forget #it’s a thing #a big thing #david tennant #good omens #doctor who #broadchurch #casanova #around the world in 80 days #baftas

um. i just did a thing.

#A BIG THING #chewing my arm off actually #no one talk to me no one look at me wtffffff #rj’s ramblings

would be cool if there was a word for the intersection of queerphobia and ableism but I’m not sure if something like that would ever take off

#idk it’s just such a THING #a BIG THING #it deserves its own word #queerphobia #ableism #quableism

using c!tommy as a moral compass for the dream smp doesn’t really work beyond the small circle of people involved in the exile conflict because c!tommy is not a morally perfect character

you can’t use a character’s opinion of c!tommy as indicative of their moral standing because c!tommy has hurt people before

he has mistreated people (he tortured c!fundy and c!connor for information, and he enslaved c!ant and forced him to work for him) and those people have the right to dislike him or be wary of him and it doesn’t make them bad people if they do

this isn’t c!tommy neg this is just a fandom issue because i’ve seen people say that like, you can tell a character’s morals based on what they think of c!tommy and that’s just.. not how morality works. or people. like at all?

#discourse #kinda idk #this is ok to rb if anyone wants btw #im not tagging this bc i dont rly want it to be like #a big thing #i just wanted to put my thoughts down

Staying: Chapter Three

Chapter Three: Let’s Just Stay Like This

Summary: Ianto knows that something must have changed when Jack returns and seeks something more than a casual relationship. For the first time, Jack wants him to stay the night - like he needs the company more than he’d like to admit. Ianto stays, and then he just keeps staying.

Notes: Hello, Torchwood fandom! You’ve changed a lot since I last wrote here, but you’re also still the same fandom I love. (Old-schoolers may remember me as Mod Ianto from the We-Are-Torchwood tumblr family!) I hope you enjoy my take on Jack and Ianto’s developing relationship after KKBB in a series of loosely interconnected chapters.

Jack was dead on the ground. The alien that had killed him with the electric currents running through its skin was dead too, shot by Gwen as it had rushed at Tosh. Owen and Gwen were currently arguing over how to dispose of the still-sparking body and Tosh was trying to calm them down, but Ianto was focused solely on Jack.

It had looked horribly painful, dying like that. Well, at least it was quick. It only lasted a few seconds before Jack's scream was cut off and he crumpled to the ground. His eyes had closed on the way down. Ianto was glad they weren't open. He never wanted to see the emptiness behind them again.

Ianto wondered what it felt like to come back to life. It didn't look...easy, the way Jack did it; how he sat up gasping, desperate for air like he had been holding his breath for the whole time he had been dead. Ianto knelt by his body, touching his forehead hesitantly in case there was any electric charge left. There wasn't. Instinctively, Ianto pulled Jack into his lap, wrapping his arms around him to wait it out. He had never done this before, but it felt right. He didn't want Jack waking up and feeling like he was alone.

"Ianto?" Tosh came over to him, a concerned expression on her face as she saw him cradling Jack's corpse. "Ianto, he'll be back."
