Fading Into Dust - created July 11th 2008 For all the shippers still out there. :)
Okay I am back with another head canon question, mainly because I love hearing your thoughts and because I have a lot of feelings on the subject. For Rose and Tentoo what are your thoughts on them having a piece of the TARDIS coral? Do you think that outtake is canon? And along with that what is your own head canon regarding them and the coral?
You’re too sweet!
I don’t have a lot of headcanons regarding Tentoo, I’m happy to just internalize everyone else’s meta haha. But that outtake has always been canon to me, I think RTD himself said so. TBH it makes the ending of Journey’s End more acceptable? Because they will still be able to travel together and do what they use to do, but with that openness of feelings and vulnerability, they couldn’t have before. And it would ease Tentoo’s “transition”, something to hold on to and hope.
I think their new Tardis’ design and personality so to speak, would be influenced equally by Rose/Bad Wolf and the part-human Doctor. As such, they would start their new adventure on equal footing.
“Of course, the most important thing to say about ‘Rose’ is that it was written entirely from Rose Tyler’s point of view. The Autons provide the plot, but the story is all about her. (There’s an old Hollywood saw, describing the vital difference between plot and story. Plot is: the King died and then the Queen died. Story is: the King died and then the Queen died of a broken heart.) I’d love to tell you that months of analysis went into the decision to focus on Rose, but the fact is, it didn’t take a second. Some things are just instinct, and all the rest is hindsight. Hidden amongst a million options, there is one way to write something. And finding that one way is my job.”

Here’s a doodle from last night that I didn’t hate this morning and decided to finish. Mostly cause I miss drawing Christopher Eccleston’s face. Some kinda alt Bad Wolf Bay scenario but I’m a fanartist not a fanfic author so don’t ask how lol.
Hi! I just wanted to say thank you so much for doing that informal study on kudos and comments. I write a little bit, and I used to think, "oh it's just kudos", so reading that study and realizing that most readers are saying "I really liked this!" with the kudos button really helped me reframe my thinking and is helping me be much more positive about the feedback I get!
YAY!
And if you want to help us learn more about kudos, @longlivefeedback is hosting another survey. Details here.
Old face, old favourite
“Will we be married someday, Giacomo?”
“Yes. That means you will live with me, you know.”
“Yes, I know….May we have a home with a sunroom? For needlepoint and reading?”
He kissed the side of her head, “Of course! As long as you promise me something?”
“What?”
“That you’ll let me make love to you every night.” He grinned and laughed when she playfully smacked his arm.” He smiled softly at her and whispered, “Promise me you’ll stay with me forever.”
She smiled brightly at him, pecked his lips and whispered, “Forever.”

It’s the TARDIS key. It’s also a drawing I’m not happy with but post anyway because picandchips tag needs to be filled with fanart.
Good Different

Summary: While out on a long, cold, dark, damp mission, Tentoo has a moment of very humanish weakness and gets hangry (anger fueled by hunger) and a domestic row ensues. Never fear, though. They make up with plenty of fluff and smut. Still, a lesson in maturity and growth in their relationship makes them stronger for it.
Notes: Part 1 - for the @onelifenet prompt: Torchwood. Part 2 – snuck in a reference to the @dwsmutfest prompt: Spanktember “Wow… I did not know you were into that…” so I’m counting it. haha
Part 1 is General, but does have mild British swearing; part 2 is explicit because Rose made it smuttier than I intended. Naughty Rose. If you aren’t into smut, feel free to stop after part 1 because that is where the plot ends. If you are into smut, you probably need to read part 1 first to understand part 2, but no one’s judging, so…
In the two months since Pete’s World had become his permanent home universe, the Doctor had learned a lot about life on the slow path. And how the love of his lives had grown and changed. Most of these realizations didn’t come all at once and were moments of beauty and maturity and very like watching a literal rose blossom, if he allowed himself such a cheesy thought. She captured more and more of his heart every day, even when he thought he already loved her with every cell in his part-human part-Time Lord body.
However. Some lessons in leading an ordinary life were more difficult than others. And some revelations about all that had changed in their time apart threw him off kilter. And sometimes, like tonight, those lessons and revelations collided in unexpected ways.
Can’t stop drawing Jenny from Spirit Trap… Small Billie is so cute <3
*hugs you real tight* would you please send this to the first ten people on your dash? Make sure someone gets a hug today, and stay safe
If you do something and it goes wrong, you learn from it and you move on.
For @thedoctorofsteel! I’m really sorry for the long wait, just for some reason I kept on getting side tracked from this project??? :/ Anyway, I think it came out really well for my first time drawing John Barrowman! :D Also, I’m really sorry if the colors came out a bit wonky, thanks to my scanner. I was able to enhance it, but it still came out looking a bit strange. :P
In the TARDIS garden
For the @timepetalsprompts weekly prompt: gardening on the TARDIS
Pairing: Ten + Rose Rating: light teen Word count: ~600
Rose lay on her back, one hand under her head, the other resting on her stomach.
The Doctor lay next to her, propped up on one elbow, fingers of his free hand tracing slow, soft patterns into her skin.
She sighed happily, summoning up the strength to speak. “Don’t think I’ll ever grow tired of this.”
He hummed in agreement, appreciating the way goosebumps rose on her flesh in wake of his lightly trailing fingertips.
She giggled and slapped at his hand as he neared the ticklish spot on her ribs. Smiling, he lay his palm flat against her instead, fingers splayed, framing her breast in the L formed by his thumb and forefinger.
The TARDIS-generated sunlight caressed their bodies, the heat warming their sweat-cooled skin but not dangerous enough to burn them.
“Love that she upgraded to apple grass too. Nice touch, that.”
If she’d been looking at him, she’d have seen his pleased smirk. “May have put in a request for that, actually.”
She sighed contentedly again, listening to the sounds of the nearby stream and the pleasant songs of the birds. Then her eyes snapped opened as she realized what she was hearing.
Pushing herself up to one elbow, she met the Doctor’s questioning gaze. “Are there actual birds here? I just assumed the sounds were simulated, but…”
She caught the pleased smirk this time. “Oh sure, we’ve got real birds, along with all kinds of insects.” He laughed when she wrinkled her nose at that last part.
She eyed the ground warily. “There are real bugs crawling around here? I thought I was safe in the TARDIS.”
Chuckling, he leaned in and pressed a kiss to her temple. “Of course there are. Not just from earth, either. Just like only a handful of foliage species in here are from earth. Each plant in here has a couple of insect species from its same planet to act as caretakers, then a couple of birds to take care of the insects. It’s an efficient little ecosystem, really. Suits our purposes, anyway.”
Rose pondered this thoughtfully. “That’s amazing. How do you keep the bird population down?”
“Well, I don’t do really anything. This garden belongs to the TARDIS. It’s her thing, her special interest project. A bit of lovely symmetry there, given as she is a plant species of her own. So she maintains it for the most part. Occasionally, though, we do a drop off when any particular TARDIS-bird population gets a bit too large.”
Her face scrunched a bit in thought, unable to recall ever making such a trip. “Have you done one since I’ve been aboard?”
He smiled endearingly at her. “You sleep an awful lot, Rose. There are some routine things I take care of while you do.”
She knew he didn’t stay with her all night every night, and she had wondered what kind of stuff he got up to between putting her to bed and waking her up. On the nights he didn’t stay, anyway. She knew what happened when he did stay…
“What other kind of stuff do you do while I’m asleep?”
His head wobbled side to side a bit. “Oh, this and that. TARDIS repairs and maintenance mostly.” He scooted closer to her, pressing his front against her side. “I save the best activities for when you’re awake, though.”
She rolled her eyes and smiled, tilting her head to the side to allow him better access to her neck, where he gently began to suck. “You’re insatiable,” she told him breathily.
“Mmm. Only with you.”
