TELEPHONE, a device by which sound (such as speech) is converted into electrical impulses and transmitted to one or more specific receivers.

I wanted to do another easy one and figured drawing the TARDIS would work, given it looks like a telephone booth.

I heard Doctor Who came to an ending (or as much as you may consider its current state) and it seems people are rather cross over it. I've seen other fandoms, especially as of late, going through those same sort of responses whenever a series concludes at this rate.

Is it because people want it to keep going? Even when quality becomes an issue? Is it simply not knowing what to replace it with, if anything can even do the job? Or is it just because executives don't want limited run shows and want to consistently rake in the big bucks while an audience hangs onto every 8 episode season (released every year and a half)?

I dunno. But for anyone who read this far, what is a show in recent time that you consider has a good, quality ending?

Hi OP! I love reading your Metas, and I would love to read your opinion about Newt and his relationship with Anathema! I noticed people don't talk a lot about him but I love this character because i can see a lot of myself in him🖤

I have, as you Anon, strong feelings about Newt and I can see a lot of myself in him as well. 

I love how, as many characters in this story, he’s well written and complicate under many aspects, it’s just a bit difficult to see since he’s a secondary character, and maybe at first he doesn’t stand out like the others but at the end, he’s one of the most important characters in the story.

Newt, as we can see in the book/series, has a big self-confidence problem, and I think it depends on two factors:

On one hand, the mother seems to have high expectations for him that he cannot fulfil, such as being a computer genius. This is usually very frustrating because when you are made to believe that plugging a computer is a "science experiment” for your entire childhood when you are in the “adult” world and you discover that you aren’t that great, your whole life becomes increasingly frustrating.

So frustrating that, in fact, in order to don’t disappoint the mother, he will end up lying and saying “It was great at work, and everyone loves me” even if he were fired the first day. See also: Newt prefers to follow Shadwell rather than admit he has failed for the umpteenth time.

On the other hand, the fact that he’s so passionate about computers but can’t work with them is a big blast to his self-steam. He would love to be a computer engineer, he really wishes he was, but he’s not and this is sad because he keeps trying to work with them.

I think that this is sad but, again, Newt’s biggest flaw, destroying everything that is technologic, is his best quality. I love this. I love that is the biggest flaw is the thing that, all in all, saves the world.

Speaking of this, Newt is very brave and brilliant:

When he discovers that he has to enter a military base he panics because let's face it, he’s human and until the morning before he didn’t even believe in the existence of Witches and Occult (or Ethereal!) Things and any sane person would freak out on the idea to enter in a restricted area without permission with the big possibility to be shot at first sight. Newt doesn’t have ancestors who studied prophecies all their life as Anathema. Ain't crazy like Shadwell or Tracy (which I love, but they're both a little bit crazy haha)

Despite this, however, he goes to the base and does everything to save the world. Even if that means to destroy billion of computers (hahah)

He’s the one that figures out how Agnes Nutter’s prophecies system works: it’s useless that they try to guess which card should pick, if Agnes could see the future, she could see what card they would pick, so... let’s pick a random one and it would be the right one. This is brilliant, this is how you should use your ancestor ability to see the future, guuuurl.

Also, he’s the one to encourage Anathema to cut ties with her ancestors. If she would have continued to study the prophecies she would have just followed blindly what Agnes say: aka she would have never acquired true free will.

About Newt I have two big Headcanon that I cannot shake of my head:

1)Objectively, Anathema knows that she did a good thing to burn the book. I know that many of us thought “but why didn’t she give it to Aziraphale?” And this is a good point, but don’t you think that she would be tempted to go to him to know what Agnes wrote? Personally, I think that in future Anathema would panic whenever something bad happens, thinking that maybe, if she wouldn’t have burned the book she could have prevented it. This sounds very stressful, and I like to think that Newt would be there to calm Anathema down. It could be the sooting way he talks, but I feel like he’s someone that is good at ground people in moments of stress. This doesn’t mean that he doesn’t get stressed or worked out, but I see Anathema and Newt like the perfect couple: he’s sooting and calming, she’s fierce and reassuring. They make a good team.

2)I strongly believe that Newt and Crowley could be best pals, like... they both likes technology, they’re both nerds in a different way. Also, I want to remember to everyone that Newt is a Doctor Who fan, and Crowley is responsible for most of the British television shows.

So I like to imagine them, awkwardly seated on the couch, the TV is on and Doctor Who is on: “Oh, I love this show.” Would say Newt. “Oh, yes, it’s one of mine. It started as a way to teach kids about science and history facts because you know… the more you believe in science the more you’re tempted to don’t follow religions, I got a commendation for it.”

“…Did you just said that you invented Doctor Who?”

“I mean, not exactly, I gave the idea to some authors and they did the rest… but strictly speaking, I guess? Did you know that [add here some obscure facts about DW]”

“Can I hug you? It’s weird? I really want to hug you.”

Crowley and Newt during cookouts at Jasmine’s cottage always chat about fun facts, TV series and sci-fi stuff, and the demon enjoys this a lot, but a the same time he’s A Cool Guy™, so he won’t say nothing. 

But his gift for Newt’s wedding is a cabinet in the back of the cottage that looks like a 1:1 version of the TARDIS, it’s a bit bigger on the inside, full of computers that aren’t plugged on anything but they work anyway (and they works for Newt without problems, if they know what's best for them), but there’s also a comfy sofa where he can read his comics and a vintage television that only streams his favourite shows.

Newt fainted the first time he saw it.
