19. Get caught in a questionable position with Crowley Aziraphale Twelve Missy Quill
excuse me while i answer an ask from april 27, 2017
okay interesting. ‘questionable’ is SO vague
1. quill may possibly make out with me to make said ‘questionable’ situation into actual situation and i’m okay with this.
2. 12 because he’s pretty used to questionable situations and i think i can leave the talking to him
3.crowley because he’s very sweet and i don’t think anything particularly bad would happen. unless aziraphale is the one to ‘catch’ me in which case i may be deceased in 4 seconds but it’s probably fine i can convince him of things
4. missy would instakill me to alleviate awkwardness
5. aziraphale because crowley would get sad if he thought something was happening. unless hes poly like i write him in which case aziraphale and crowley both shoot up to number 1 because im a homosexual
heres the post you were talking about, because holy shit this is old. uh ask me i guess if you want LMAO
I was home yesterday, and there were a couple of episodes of B99 on the telly, so I decided to watch them bc you're always saying how great they are. OMG they were fab! <3 now I just need to find somewhere to binge on them!!
if you have Netflix, the first three and a half seasons are on there!
otherwise, try this website, I’ve been using it a bit recently and it’s less dodgy than most streaming sites!
When it comes to relativity due to black holes, that is one thing that Doctor Who did get right - the farther a clock is from the source of gravitation, the faster the time passes! I'm a maths nerd, and I've literally just been researching and calculating this for fun!
it was actually your post that got me to actually start researching this also (i really like phyiscs and math so i understand haha) but to your point, unless im misremembering (which i totally might be) i thought the bottom of the ship (where the cybermen are) was near the black hole, and then the doctor would be further away from the black hole
as this source says, “a timekeeper in a strong gravitational field will measure a slower time than one in the absence of gravity.”, which means that bill would be experiencing a “slower” time than the doctor is, or that time is passing for the doctor faster than it is for her (so, the doctor would be up at the top of the ship for years while bill was down there for a few minutes, instead of the opposite which the episode showed)
or like this quote: “For example, if you were to station yourself just outside a black hole, while you would find your own watch ticking at the normal rate, you would see the watch of a friend at great distance from the hole to be ticking at a much faster rate than yours. That friend would see his own watch ticking at a normal rate, but see your watch to be ticking at a much slower rate. Thus if you stayed just outside the black hole for a while, then went back to join your friend, you would find that the friend had aged more than you had during your separation.” (assuming that the doctor is the friend at a great distance from the black hole and bill is the one right at the edge)
like im pretty sure theres a flaw in my thinking but i really like relativity also and really am enjoying researching this so might as well, haha, but relativity is super confusing at the best of times and changing from time dilation because of very fast speed to a huge gravitational pull is also kind of strange
Right now it’s Eight and Charley from the Big Finish adventures (nobody knows who they are haha). I’m not a huge shipper tbh, I remember I also shipped Nine/Rose when I first watched the show and I think I ship Twelve/Clara but it’s sort of borderline between friendship and ship? Oh and of course the Ultimate Ship, Best Enemies :D
9) NOTP?
Ahh, that would be Doctor/River :( I don’t know why but for whatever reason I just don’t like River lmao *shrug* there’s people who do though so I say enjoy if that’s your thing ;)
26) Favourite episode (or top three if that’s too hard)?
Even top three is too hard haha ;) I’ll go with Heaven Sent, The Empty Child/The Doctor Dances, and Bad Wolf/The Parting of the Ways! <3
Prompt: Twissy, piano, vault. Do what you will with that!
12/Missy, shitty punk fucking, ~500 words
Missy’s been practicing something avant-garde, the past few weeks. Repeated phrases, iterations, or just plain noise. Nothing random, a particular intent in the keys struck, even if the Doctor can’t follow along.
They’ve been listening, through the wall. The dissonant chord, the minor key, the riff on a Brill Building tune. “Do You Know the Way to San Jose” dismantled, built back up into something awful and reproaching and ominous. 30 years in captivity, what do they expect, a fanfare?
They reach behind them, from where they’re crumpled on the floor - they reach back and knock on the vault door and say “D'you know "Son of a Preacher Man”?“
A drawn-out, heavy silence. The implied ironic shrug.
"Or how ‘bout "Walk On By”. Or any song I can play. Funkadelic, you know them at all? Or the Buzzcocks?“
They settle back into the silence, trying to find a comfortable spot. "Can I come in?” they ask, quietly.
No answer, again, but the lack of response feels different this time. They drag themselves to their feet and press their forehead against the vault door and hope hard until it finally opens, slow and resolute.
She’s at the piano, striking a pose. Strung out on something or other, maybe just herself. The Doctor does their best to swagger in, guitar slung around their waist. Something to do with their hands, at least, finding places to hesitate on the fretboard. A riff rattled off.
“I’m not much into rock and roll,” she says quickly. “Or Tin Pan Alley pop, either. It’s all about that old baroque stuff, you know. The over-educated panic of beseeching a god who doesn’t know your name.” Her fingers flit along the keyboard, an anxious questioning phrase.
“You’re lying,” the Doctor says. “You’re always lying. You were made alongside me. And you know what that means?”
Missy shrugs; the Doctor squawks out a dissonant feedback-heavy chord and grins widely. “You like punk rock too. C'mon, let’s make a mistake.”
She raises her eyebrows; the Doctor raises theirs; there’s kind of a skirmish in between them. Circle pit, elbows up. The TARDIS dutifully drops the needle on a record, something loud and fuck-off obnoxious. Missy slams the Doctor up against the wall, hard enough to hurt.
“This what you want? What you’ve been missing?” She’s got her hands down rough in their trousers, guitar discarded on the floor still humming.
“Hnf,” the Doctor replies noncommittally, legs gone shaky and hands searching for purchase. A bad decision, gone for broke. They wind up on the ground, pants around their ankles.
Missy takes their jaw in her hands and squeezes, almost affectionately. “You’re too easy, you know that?”
“Knew you still know to cause a ruckus” they say, sweating, crusted-up in the dirt of the floor here, the fifty years of dust. “I’ll stop you, don’t worry, I still have - oh - the upper hand.”
“Of course,” she says, fingers prying into their mouth, other hand between their legs, nearby but not quite touching their cock (which is currently pitching a hell of a two-person tent). Watching them squirm in the filth, all muddy knees and wayward hair.
“C’mon,” she says. Leaning into them, minor key, major key, the dissonant chord, the steady drum beat, “C’mon.” She can play them easy as any piece of music, even after all these years. They moan messy, achingly; she flexes and stretches her fingers, in preparation for something truly avant-garde.
