Alright, but imagine this in the context of 'The Time of The Doctor". Imagine visiting the old man who had protected your town for centuries just goes on with the most complex gibberish ever, and then the sky opens up and the Clock Bosses come out to go kill some pepperpots.
So, the Doctor’s name /might/ apparently be, “Chrístõdavõreendiamondhærtmallõupdracœfiredelúnmiancuimhone.”
And— I honestly don’t know how I found this. One day I just googled “what’s the Doctors name,” and just read whatever I could when I randomly found this on some website. And, I’ve never actually read Lungbarrow, and I’ve also never heard anyone talk about this besides me, so, idk. :/
I wonder if there's any long angsty academy fics with thoschei-centred? like the whole thing from their first meet to the final fight between them so after you read it all you just get a deep depressed feeling like a void was placed inside of you because you just know what happend to them after all of these academy years????? slowburn friends to lovers to enemies with some silly adventures and then /snaps fingers/ it's angst and depression
please im begging slap me with some links of this
cause you know what happens to a fanfiction writer when they can't find the thing they want to read.
oh shit i might actually write it.
theta doodle bc I was bored
I haven’t posted on tumblr in literal years (whoops) but anyways I’m trying to figure out how I draw thoschei 😛
Every time someone draws academy era koschei braiding thetas hair a flower blooms a baby laughs and peace is restored in the universe
This post is what caused me to put this book on my Christmas list this year. I got it and I’m not super far in yet (I’m in Chapter 5, shortly after the bit with Borusa, actually) but it is entirely as fun as advertised so far! :)
Honestly I just get so excited whenever they go to Gallifrey, despite the Doctor and all intergalactic tour guides’ apparent consensus that it is a hopelessly dull place. But it’s a place replete with backstory and that’s why I love it. I have an academy-era fic I’ve been working on and I’m already thinking how I’m going to have to revise my portrayal of Borusa based on what I’ve learned in this book.
And, of course, it does have that distinctive Douglas Adams tone. My dad was surprised to learn that Adams had written for Doctor Who, actually, so that was a fun bit of knowledge to impart. Very fun book :)
