1, 3, 7, 12, 13

1. Top three doctors

Six, oh god this is really hard, twelve, and eight??? maybe???? but special mentions to, well, all the others. 

3. Favourite quote

All amazing and hilarious quotes aside…

I have “A straight line may be the shortest distance between two points, but it is by no means the most interesting” on my wall. When i’m not sure where i’m going or what i’m doing or if i’m taking too long, it helps to remember that it’s just part of the journey and i could gain a lot from it, even if it doesn’t look like it. 

(shout out to that quote about piles of good and bad things. you know the one)

7. Favourite doctor/companion relationship

oh my god this is so hard

Six and evelyn win for being great friends and evelyn can handle six and they love each other a lot but no one ever even talks about romantically, and i really love how their differences and the difficulties it presents are treated. 

(but also just, any other relationship like that)

12. Favourite doctor

Six. I’m a sucker for jerks with a heart of gold (who are eventually just gold)

13. First story you saw on TV

 an unearthly child, but i don’t really remember it

i think you mean EXCELLENT LIFE CHOICES

THEY’RE KIND OF QUESTIONABLE WHEN YOU’RE SCARED OF PEOPLE SPEAKING TO YOU BUT actually this isn’t the first time i’ve walked through a decently-populated chunk of new york city in cosplay at least this time it’s a much shorter walk i don’t have to take the subway

autisticpines answered your post: so like, empathy is…feeling what anoth...

yes! there’s been a lot of research into mirror neurons and their role in copying motor and sensory info when we observe it. i can elaborate more if you want but the gist is that mirror neurons fire whenever you do AND see an action hence ‘mirroring’

!!! oh alright, that’s interesting. i have a really hard time w it sometimes, 

((like i’ll have the involuntary reproduction of the tactile stimuli and then bc of my sensory integration/processing issues, it’ll agitate me to the point of a shutdown if i dont actively try to quell it (e.g. rubbing my hands together or rubbing my face/neck, etc. usually whatever is being stimulated or sensitized))

so im wondering. what. exactly it is. and how it works. so thanks!!
