They are similar! (in love with those boots, too!)

They’re really, really close, right?

This makes me so happy, that we're doing actual research!!!

We are! As a fandom, we can apply our dedicated research skills to figure this out!

They might well be the boots but the sole looks different to me?

Yeah, the sole looks a little bit different, and the pull tabs are different. But it’s sooo close.

I'm not understanding these boots. Where are his chucks???

Well, I haven’t seen him in chucks in a long time.

I hate to say it, but the only thing I don't like about his boots is that I don't get to see his whimsical socks. But carry on with the investigation. I'd love to know what boots he's wearing.

Yes, the lack of socks is disappointing, but it’s nice to see him in a different sort of footwear for a change.

Oh. My. Gosh. This is fantastic! I have tears from laughing so hard. Continue, please!

Shall do so! Thank you so much! :D <3

anything longer than 1000 words feels too long for a one shot

Tumblr’s attention span is even shorter than I thought.

Never ever too long! Usually I’m saying “more, more, more!” when it’s over.

never too long, what are you talking about???

fadewithfury replied to your post “So, at how many words does a oneshot fic stops being a oneshot? At…”

There’s probably no such thing as a length of a fic written by you that I’d think “this is too long, i’m not reading that”

Thank you, I’m glad I can count on you guys!

The thing is, I’m trying to get more people on board the good ship Hardy x Hannah and I figured that someone who’s not familiar with this pairing is more likely to read a oneshot than devote a lot of time to a multichapter fic, right? But now I’m almost at 7k words and it’s not finished. I think I’ll have to divide it in two at least, or three. This wasn’t supposed to happen but I really like it so far (Alec’s brother is dating Hannah’s sister, and Alec is crashing on their couch in London…)

I like to re-listen to Chain Reaction when I need a quick DT fix. He and Catherine Tate are hysterically funny.

pleasantoldmeninpinkshirts said: My six year old watched that on Netflix for a while. I never paid attention to it until one day I recognized that beautiful voice and sprinted in from the kitchen to see what he was watching. It was a very pleasant surprise.

Well, it's set to record so will see how it pans out. Kind of makes me miss having small children.

My 16 yr old daughter keeps me in line while rolling her eyes at me and calling me a middle school girl…

I don't know how I managed it, but I somehow raised children with more self-restraint and self-discipline than I have.

what’s happened?

just people being...people, you know?  plus I have a lot of things to do today and it's a bit daunting.

purfidious-snatch replied to your post “Guilty Confession”

Yes! I know exactly what you mean! He said on a radio interview in the fall that he has some things going on in the new year so I hope it'll be something besides brooding and intense. I am dying about not getting to see WWDOOH. So unfair!

We'll get it one way or another, eventually! We just have to be patient, I guess.

whovianfloozy replied to your post “Guilty Confession”

I get it. I'll take DT whenever I can, but it's been intense drama (including the Escape Artist ) so I've been watching Decoy Bride. He needs to give us a rom-com where he's bookish and charming and wears his glasses and has sex and nakedness. .

I would sit through a rom-com just for sexy DT. I have to admit, I can barely stand rom-coms even if he's in them. Almost didn't finish Decoy Bride when I watched it. What I really want? Him to do some campy horror, science fiction, or fantasy thing. Lots of makeup and a crazy (but hot) costume, for a character that's ridiculous and funny, but also has some depth and sad backstory. They did that so brilliantly with his Benedick-- he got to be over the top and ridiculous and have some crazy costumes, but still be such an awesome character. If there's a rom-com where he gets to have a character similar to that, I'd be so happy!

I don’t know the proper way to do it but I get irate when I’m looking thru the David Tennant tags and there’s Benedict Cumberbatch or really, ANY thing other than David Tennant. Bugs the crap outta me. (But good luck with it…)

What I hate is when someone posts something Tennant-related in EVERY POSSIBLE David Tennant-related tag, whether it has anything to do with that tag or not. Which, just gave me an idea how to solve my problem.
