. . . and then I didn't post for four months. Oops?
Um. Maybe I'll fill you guys in later on relevant things like classes I took, thoughts on fandom stuff, and so on. For now, though, I am going to try to gently ease back into at least posting often enough to keep the cobwebs from collecting on my journal by doing this thing I did a couple years ago. I'm just gonna copy and paste the entire text of the post itself.
As I'm sure many of you have done, I have lost multiple chunks of my life to TV Tropes. The most recent chunk was at the Wild Mass Guessing page, which is a gathering of pages on different fandoms discussing fanon theories from the sensible to the insane. Many of them have an "X is a Time Lord" guess, and since Dollhouse, there are a lot of "X is a Doll" guesses popping up, too.
So! In my idleness, I have decided to pose this - I don't know, meme I just made up to you guys.
Name me a fandom I'm familiar with, and I'll tell you who's a Time Lord, who's a Doll, or both (probably both) and why.
Feel free to swipe and use this yourself, if you could stand to kill some time.
I think it's been long enough for me to do again. You can ask for fandoms I did last time and I'll try to come up with different answers. Unless you do PotC, because "Jack is a Time Lord and the Pearl is his TARDIS" will ALWAYS be the right answer.

This time around, the Doll is Deborah. Please, did you really think Violet and Grahame just happened to find such a politically perfect wife so soon? I bet the Chandlers and Rossum are like this.
I'm afraid Bobby Barrel is still the only one who makes sense as a Time Lord, though. I mean, he's either a Time Lord or a ghost. Maybe that ridiculous hat is his TARDIS.

[Could Tina not have like, regenerated, though?]

Plus, she's so - blank, and spineless, and depressing, and lacking in agency. I just can't bring myself to associate any of those qualities with a Time Lady, unless she was chameleon-arced or something. And even then. That said, I could totally go for an AU with Time Lady!Tina who is the opposite of all those things I just said and makes Cal get his shit together. Then drags him off in her TARDIS. :D
