@jem-scribbles, @ktrosesworld, @chocolatequeennk, @colourinside (This was my the wedding of my best friend from kindergarten, FYI, I was her Man of Honor.) Thanks guys! I felt like a million bucks. I got lots of compliments. The wedding was beautiful and I rather enjoyed the reception. Which was a first for me, but it's also the first time I've drank at a reception... I was very social (for me) and, I think, very charming. There were even other gender non-conforming people in attendence. Which was refreshing. I was too shy to talk to them, though. A woman caught the garter and put it on the leg of the woman who caught the bride's flowers. It was good fun, but I'm glad it's done now so I can relax for the rest of my vacation.

Ooh hellooo :) For the Doctor Who ask meme, I would like to know 4, 18, 19, 28 and 29 please ❤

Thanks for the ask :)

4. Favourite Dalek story 

Oh man, I think the Daleks are my favorite villians, hands down.  But, let’s see…  The first episode I ever watched of Doctor Who was Dalek.  So, it holds a special place.  I had NO IDEA what was going on.  lol  But you know what?  My favorite Dalek (and Cyberman so this goes for 18 as well) moment was the exchange in Doomsday:

Dalek: Identify yourselvesCyberman: You will identify firstDalek: State your identifyCyberman: You will identify firstDalek: IDENTIFYCyberman: That answer is illogical.  You will modify.Dalek: Daleks do not take ordersCyberman: You have identified as DaleksDalek: Outline resembles the inferior species known as Cyberman. Our species are similar, though your design is inelegantDalek: Daleks have no concept of eleganceCyberman: This is obvious.  But, consider, our technologies are compatible.  Together we could upgrade the universeDalek:  You propose an allianceCyberman: This is correctDalek: Request DeniedCyberman: You have declared war upon the cybermenDalek: This is not war.  This is pest control.Cyberman: We have 5 million Cybermen.  How many are you?Dalek: FourCyberman: You would destroy the cybermen with four daleks?Dalek: We would destroy the cybermen with one dalek.  You are superior in only one respect.Cyberman: What is that?Dalek: You are better at dying!

Yes, I typed out the whole thing.  That is one of my favorite exchanges in all Doctor Who.

19. Favourite one off monsterMy knee-jerk response is the “Are you my mummy?” kid. But was he really a monster?  I would say the Waters of Mars aliens because they actually still scare me to this day.  Or maybe the werewolf from Tooth and Claw.

28.  Anything you want to see in the next seasonI want to see story arcs that actually build up to something worthwhile.  I would love to have another companion that gives the doctor what-for like Donna and Bill.  Honestly, those are my favorite kind.

29. Thoughts on the current DoctorOh, boy.  I’m trying not to have too many at the moment. *laughs nervously*  After the kerfuffle here when she was chosen… But, I will say I’m withholding judgement in the same way that I have for the past Doctors.  I want to see what Jodie brings to the character.  I want to see what changing genders does to the character: what stays the same and what actually is different.  I am hoping that the writers do this with sensitivity.

Also, I wasn't sure if "current" Doctor already applies for Jodie so... uh... want my thoughts on Jodie too? XD

See, I wasn’t sure either.  I went with Jodie because she was the most recently picked.  You’re more than welcome to talk about her, too!

As for Capaldi: I really enjoyed him as the Doctor.  I liked his grumpiness.  I connected with his more socially inept moments... How he was a bit more distant physically and emotionally, for the most part.  I liked his grand speeches and his funny moments.  Honestly, I wouldn’t mind another season with him as the Doctor.

colourinside replied to your post “Ooh hellooo :) For the Doctor Who ask meme, I would like to know 4,...”

Also I have to ask: were you still missing good story arcs in series 10? Because I very much understand what you mean, given everything we've seen since roughly series 5 but... I was quite happy with series 10 actually and I agree, Bill is absolutely amazing!!

I’m glad you enjoyed season 10!  By all means, please don’t take my criticism personally.  I have problems with a lot of Moffat Who story arcs... I’m terrible at explaining why, but I’ll give it a go:  Mostly it’s because from the outset I feel like I’m supposed to care about what’s going on.  It’s assumed that I’ll care.  But, for the most part, I just don’t.  I don’t feel like enough time and effort is put in to connecting me as an audience member to whatever the story line is.  Beyond that, it often feels like there’s a lot of build up and then I’m disappointed with the endgame.  This last season that centered around The Vault.  I knew from the get-go that I was going to be annoyed by the vault and I was every time it showed up in the story.  I knew whatever was in it was going to disappoint me.  I enjoyed most of the episodes that had nothing to do with it, though.  I’m just... I know you like Missy, but I don’t.  How she interacted with the Doctor from their first meeting really squicked me out.  (I use squicked here because I know it’s a personal thing... I’m not condemning you or anyone else for her enjoying the character.)  That initial interaction has colored every future appearance for me, fair or not.  I stayed with season 10 for Bill and for Twelve.  I enjoyed them together.  I enjoyed the one-offs.

Haha i love that you type out the whole thing because it is brilliant indeed it is so funny I cannot help but giggle every time I see it or in this case read it haha

I started and I couldn’t stoooop.  The whole thing needed to be out there.  XD

Amaaaazing one day I want one that looks exactly like that!! 😍😍

Isn’t it pretty?  =D  I loooooove it.

@draco9236 said:

Looks cool, but my first thought was Dalek, with the color and globe like form 😂

Well, considering Daleks are like 50% kitchen utensils, it stands to reason!

Hey ;) Somehow my phone won't allow me to ask you right now but I'd like you to answer 45-50 for the last ask meme you reblogged pretty please ❤

45.  What is your most used emoji?  ;P  I’m not currently on my phone so it looses a bit in translation.  But, yeah, winky raspberry face.

46.  What is your favourite season? Why? Autumn.  I love the feel of the weather cooling off, seeing all of the beautiful colors on the trees, and HALLOWEEN.  I adore Halloween. 47.  How would you spend your ideal day? I’m honestly torn.  It depends on how much introvert time I’ve had.  If I’ve had a lot then my ideal day would be out doing something with a friend (shopping or visiting a museum or both).  If I’ve not had a lot of time to myself: getting absolutely lost in a craft project.  To the extent that nothing else in the world matters.

48.  Describe yourself using one word. Empathetic (This question was super hard for some reason!)

49.  What do you regret the most? Pinning and not telling people I had feelings for them until it was too late.  It’s a theme with me.

50.  Invent your own word. What does it mean? My friend and I call cutting boards (like for chopping veggies) Gricklacks.  I know this came about on a trip to Ikea.  I’m not sure exactly where the name came from.
