euff. I dunno who else you play other than Ginko
Barnaby, and i used to play from Doctor Who
and I dunno anything mean to say about Ginko that won't be generic XD
..i'm actually waiting to see if someone has something to say about DW
DREAMWIDTH SUCKS GO BACK TO LJ shoots self
that's not rage-worthy it's lol-worthy
That's because Ginko is generic. How boring. I mean, seriously, one-eyed white haired anime guy woooo
shut up he's totally unique
you have to admit, though... coughs
just like that guy from PH!
or... that other guy from No. 6...
Moffatt is the best Doctor Who writer.
lmao, i can think of at least 3 other white haired guys who have something weird about their left eye, and anotehr good 6 white haired guys
i actually enjoy kind of... collecting them in games /snickering
HAHA, I knew that'd get you.
..though that wasn't the thing i'm waiting for, lmao
Also, Barnaby is a shallow little brat who only brings Kotetsu down!
...he is a shallow little brat
a shallow brat *with no redeeming qualities
I think that's how the fandom rants go. I forget because I don't have the patience/attention span to sit through them.
thank goodness i've never seen a serious one, or one at all out of this plurk
i would go off on someone, i think
Oh, and Kotetsu is perfect. ...PFFFFTAHAHAHAHA
...................okay that's making me laugh hysterically
Me too. Could not type with a straight face.
..i'm kind of amused that no one's touched my most rant-y topic yet
but i guess Joys isn't here yet
...or maybe i just havent' ranted about them recently
AHAHAHA, I had forgotten about those.
thank you for accommodating me~
I don't grok your problem at all, obvs being assembled full grown on a magic space loom is completely awesome.
it's totally idiotic and impractical
especially since they then live on oversized furniture to simulate the feeling of being a child
Frankly, I'm just still weirdly in love with the idea of a new-loomed Time Lord messing up one of Sandry's weavings.
why don't you just, idk, HAVE CHILDREN
that would be kind of funny, yes
Man, I wish I had Sandry-voice!
they have really big tables and chairs and stuff to make them feel like a kid while they're living in the house
Or I knew someone who wrote Circlefic and Whofic so I could ask.
which just... idk it's silly
and i hate that this concept from one book has made it into the fandom
THERE ARE OTHER WAYS FOR TWO MALE TIME LORDS TO HAVE KIDS, YOU GUYS

If you're born full grown and... knowing language and stuff, might as well take it all the way.
THEY'RE VERY TECHNOLOGICALLY ADVANCED
Or at least have the looms create an infant.
And, like, magic bottles.
see, i'd be cool with that
since i'm not fond of the idea of carrying around a parasite for 9 months
That would also be entertaining fic, because WHY ARE THERE BABIES IN THE WEAVING.
but being born full-grown and then having to act the part of a child... ugh
But she couldn't demand explanations from babies and argue that this isn't how it works.
for the sake of that fic, i would tolerate the Loom idea
Maybe compromise. Five-year-olds. Bratty, superior ones.
that could actually work
since they go to see the...oh fuck, the eye thing?
I'm only getting about half of this and it's still a beautiful mental picture
oh god, i'm forgetting the names of things
anyway, they go to see it when they're 8
so being born when they're 5 makes.... no sense at all, but it would fit with the canon
Or... like, the settings on them are all adjustable, so you can get the wrinkly newborn or the young adult, and you have would-be-parents
..................adjustable settings
arguing. "I agree, it'd be good to skip to when it's toilet trained, but I don't want to miss first steps!"
how long would you like your baby to cook for? would you like the full experience of diapers, or do you want them to be able to cook
and clean ffor themselves
"You do realize we can skip puberty? You know how amazing that is?"
....i think a lot of Human parents would kill for that
"...but then there won't be any macaroni fridge art! D :"
"We'll just ask him to make some at his desk before he moves out."
accept Looms if it's like this
the idea of being born fully grown and knowing everything which
"I hate you, parents! You had me skip the want-a-pony stage!"
contradicts stuff that happens in the TV show anyway, since if the Doctor knew everything he would have gotten better scores in school
"The Noun says that was the best part of preadulthood, and you made me miss it!"
and i'm talking Classic stuff here, since this book was written before the NuWho
but anyway, even if you take away the contradictions, it still makes no sense because jeez
just... if you want them to experience what it's like to be a child, just have them be a child
...and that is why I'll always love RTD because he definitely, positively made that non-canon
by showing a Time Lord at age 8
he had his flaws - the giant time closet springs to mind - but for that, i will always love him
...and suddnely i'm wondering what this conversation even looks like to non-Who fans
|D Looms are inherently more funny than, say, cloning pods, because... come on.

HOW GIRL GET PRAGNENT
.....i could make a joke about that last one, considering where the weaving is touching
I actively had trouble copying image locations and pasting and typing there, because gigglefit.
i could actually do a mini-rant about the Giant Time Closet and how that episode(s?) fucked over so many things...
I can tell you right now, Alex: it's confusing, hilarious, and just plain
"Do you suppose the type of thread matters much? Can't we spring for the good silk? I don't want it flammable."
(how this conversation appears to this non-Whovian, anyways)
including my character's storyarc, since i assumed she was DEAD and not in... whatever the fuck, in stasis or something
(I know, I know, it's not an actual, cloth-weavy loom, but come on.)
AngelLeriel: lol, yeah, that's what i figured it was in response to
btw, I have a few gifs for you to use whenever Looms come up
and well, considering how many different mediums this... cult has spanned, from a tv show to a movie to books galore to audio dramas
it gets amazingly complicated even to people in the fandom
since one person's canon can actually differ wildly from another person's, depending on if they take the audio books as canon or
if they don't like the movie so they're ignoring it...
thankfully, the poor 8th doctor had more canon than that horrid movie XD
which is fun, but honestly... kind of horrid
anyway, back to the Time Closet... at least i already knew Rassilon was a dick and a raging xenophobe by the time that clusterfuck came
along, but... yeah, that arc made very little sense XD
especially in regards to the poor Master, whose character got kind of bastardized during that whole thing
I only have one of them on this comp, but it's the best of the bunch:
Mr. T just punched a motherfucking shark, your Looms are invalid
and these ones aren't gifs, but:
...man, i need to listen to the audio dramas again
especially the ones that have anything to do with Rassilon, because it's so fun discovering what a massive dick he is along with the Doctor
which... kind of shatters the Doctor's faith in a lot of stuff /sob
