It’s A Weird Time For Me Fandom-wise. Normally, The Way I Cycle Through Obsessions, I’d Be Fading

It’s a weird time for me fandom-wise. Normally, the way I cycle through obsessions, I’d be fading out on Gotham in favor of A Series of Unfortunate Events, because that’s kind of just how I process things, cycling from one fandom into another, and then back around again after taking a break for a while. But now Gotham is coming back, and both because I’m on tumblr now and because it’s exciting and rare for me to be current on a show I’ll want to keep up with it, especially since this is the final season, even though I was getting a little burned out on my obsession with it. But also, I’m in rehearsals for a play right now (which I need to leave for soon) and so I’ll be missing it live tonight (and for all of January) and I’ll have to stay off tumblr tonight until I can see it on hulu tomorrow--probably not until after rehearsal again, actually. Also I was going to try to put out a season 3 inspired Nygmobblepot fanmix before Gotham came back but that’s not getting done in the next 5 minutes so I suppose it’ll just have to come out this weekend amidst the rush on season 5 premiere stuff. Also I got a Doctor Who audio drama for Christmas and I’ve been listening to that in the car on the way to and from work, so it’s like I’m actively consuming things from 3 of my fandoms all at once, which is probably not that strange for most people, but which is rather strange for me given the way in which I obsess over things. 

tl;dr--I’m going to try and put up a Nygmobblepot fanmix I’ve been working on this weekend, but because of play rehearsal I won’t be able to watch Gotham live on TV this month so I’ll be watching a day behind on hulu and avoiding tumblr in the space inbetween.

Speaking of sharpie tattoos, the way Gerard and Lyn Z used them to write messages back and forth to each other on tour is adorable <3 I had heard that the lyrics to Summertime came out of this exchange, but it’s super cool to actually see pictures of it.

I wonder if there’s a story behind the unicorn shirts or if they were just being funky.

The other ships will still be looking to us, to the Black Pearl, to lead, and what will they see? Frightened bilge rats aboard a derelict ship? No, no they will see free men and freedom! And what the enemy will see, they will see the flash of our cannons, and they will hear the ringing of our swords, and they will know what we can do! By the sweat of our brow and the strength of our backs and the courage in our hearts! Gentlemen, hoist the colours!

Our production of Matilda opens tomorrow!! It’s been a while since I made a proper Opening Night Eve tumblr reblog, but then again, it’s been a while (like... 2 years) since I had an opening night! Actually, I realized the other day, it’s the longest I’ve gone not being involved in a play since I first got into a play in college, which sort of makes sense (given, you know, the whole pandemic) but also doesn’t make sense (because I still cannot begin to grasp the ceaseless flow of time). 

I loved this movie so much as a kid so it’s exciting to be a part of it in musical form :) It really is pretty touching with some lovely songs. It’s been quite a while since I saw the movie, so I’m having trouble remembering whether some things are different or whether I’m just forgetting them--for example, was the Russian mafia involved in the movie at all? I don’t recall them being there, but I’m playing Russian Henchman 2 in the musical! I also don’t recall the acrobat/escapologist story but those are some of the prettiest scenes in the play I think. Anyways, it’s a fun show to be in; here’s hoping we break lots of limbs tomorrow! (Which I suppose is all in a day’s work as a mafia henchman, haha ;) )

‎ Sometimes Matilda longed for a friend, like the kind, courageous people in her books. It occurred to her that such talking dragons and princesses with hair long enough to climb… such people might only exist in story books. But she was about to discover she had a strength… a strength she wasn’t even aware of.

I have decided that DJ Dr. Death Defying absolutely loves the song “the Last DJ” by Tom Petty (and he vibes with it pretty hard for obvious reasons), and in fact, Tom Petty is one of his all-time favorite artists.

danger days the true lives of the fabulous killjoys killjoys tom petty tlotfk tom petty and the heartbreakers dr death defying even in the tags i ramble DJ Dr. Death Defying Dr. D killjoys headcanons the Last DJ don't mind me just combining my childhood musical obsession with my present day musical obsession to anyone who only knows me in the MCR fandom yes I was obsessed with Tom Petty as a child and in fact he is still one of my favorites. I suppose you might say his music is like my 'comfort music'. Dr. D just strikes me as a Classic Rock kind of dude I mean I'm sure he likes a variety of modern and Zones rock as well but I think he has a certain amount of a Classic Rock base/background like yeah he's out there with the new rock and he loves that stuff and it's special to him too especially since he's a part of the community and culture that's making it but like there's this special place that classic rock and Tom Petty will always hold in his heart oh no I'm projecting onto Dr. D now too lol but yeah. For him Tom is like that music from a simpler time before the Helium Wars and BLI and everything actually I'm working on a whole Killjoy Vibes playlist which includes the Last DJ among many other non-MCR songs that I think fit the world I may eventually make a separate post about the whole playlist but for now I wanted to share my Dr. D-specific thoughts the Last DJ just fits him so well!! but for once I'm making a fairly concise post I think huh found this all written up and tagged in my drafts. IDK why I didn't already post it that 'hill I will die on' post just reminded me of it

I do love this quote; it describes them so well. Their relationship is so profound and intricate and I love every moment of it, all the twists and turns of the renegade friends who went down different paths in their wanderings.

I have considered shipping them romantically, but I really just don’t see them that way. I love the idea that their friendship is even deeper and more profound than that. At the end of the day, I just want to see them travel the universe together and to continue to challenge one another morally. The Missy redemption arc stuff was probably my favorite part of 12′s run and I hope they bring the Master back soon (I mean, it’s not like they haven’t been dead before. Side note, just where is this line of being “injured too badly to regenerate”? It’s wibbly-wobbly, I guess.). Definitely one of my top BrOTPs, probably the top, actually, and one of my favorite quotes from their relationship. 

“Oh, Don’t Be Disgusting. We’re Time Lords, Not Animals! Try, Nano-brain, To Rise Above The Reproductive

“Oh, don’t be disgusting. We’re Time Lords, not animals! Try, nano-brain, to rise above the reproductive frenzy of your noisy little food chain, and contemplate friendship“.

*Wiggling the string toy for my cats*

*I swing it over to Maple's paws*

Maple: Mother you are breaking my immersion. No prey would so readily surrender itself to me. I am a hunter to be feared. Mother I cannot believe that this is a creature I am meant to hunt. It should fear me. It should tremble and flee before--

*I swing the toy away*

Maple: Mother. That is simply too far. I am not going over there.

I love how palpable the emotion is in this drawing. You can feel Ed’s anger melting away into confusion, regret, and sadness; you can feel Oswald’s deep hurt (emotional as well as physical) but you can also feel how his love for Ed overpowers it and turns it to forgiveness. It’s like a summary of the twists and turns of their relationship all in one art piece, dark but surprisingly hopeful. It’s painful and beautiful and lovely and definitely among my favorites; this is one of those drawings I’ve just stared at for an extended period of time while listening to music.

alfhildr-the-word-weaver - The Lande of Violet Mists
The Lande of Violet Mists

Welcome, dear traveller, to our fantastical lande shrouded in swirling violet mists. Here we study how stories shape our lives, how words weave wonders before our eyes. Here we are enamoured of love and the connections betwixt people. Here we seek daring adventures in our wild lande, delving into the unknown at every turn. But mostly, here you'll find my obsession with any number of things, like Doctor Who, the Vampire Diaries, or any number of others from the ever-shifting tide of obsessions through which I cycle. My more-used sideblog is blagueofchaos if you ever wish I posted more :) She/her, 28
