The recent cyberman finale with the two pantomime villains cooing at each other was the most embarrassing shit I've ever seen - this truly is a show for children.

DOCTOR WHO: SHIT TRIPS Vol. 2
- The Anthology -

>Are you a true fan of Doctor Who?
>Have you ever written down a sequence of words?

If the answer is yes or no, then you are ready to contribute a literary masterpiece to the second /who/ collection of original Doctor Who-based short fiction.

/who/ did it once. Now, we're gonna do it again! Yet another entry in an age-old tradition of p̶a̶c̶k̶a̶g̶i̶n̶g̶ ̶f̶a̶n̶f̶i̶c̶s̶ ̶t̶o̶g̶e̶t̶h̶e̶r̶ ̶t̶o̶ ̶g̶i̶v̶e̶ ̶t̶h̶e̶m̶ ̶a̶n̶ ̶a̶i̶r̶ ̶o̶f̶ ̶l̶e̶g̶i̶t̶i̶m̶a̶c̶y̶ / celebrating the magic of Who and the talent of a community.

There are no limits (except the story must be at least 1 word long, and preferably not in excess of 10,000, it's short fiction you fuck).

>- Can involve any Doctor(s), companion(s), side characters, spinoff characters and beyond, as your heart desires
>- Can be in any style, whether it's "legitimate writing", "pisstake", or "shitpost".
>- Can be about absolutely anything
>- The main focus is on good fun in the vein of the wiki, although serious entries are allowed. (If you're going to write smut, maybe approach it with a degree of levity)

Stuck for ideas? Try starting with your favourite TARDIS team (or for timeliness, 12/Bill “I'm a lesbian” Potts) and one of these authentic titles:
http://www.saberpunk.net/DoctorWho/DoctorWhoSerialGenerator.php
https://glyphobet.net/drwho
And free scenario prompts:
http://games.usvsth3m.com/drwho/

We are going to be starting an index on the wiki for the collection. Anyone can contribute, no signups/pitches required. If you have ideas, feel free to broadcast them.
The rest is self-explanatory. Format for uploading your work is up to you, as long as it can be conveniently copied across (and ideally don't spam long texts in /who/ directly). (Pastebin works well.) Due date is tentatively August 22nd.

BONUS: Anyone who wants to do cover art or "illustrations" is encouraged

It wasn't even her agent, it was her theatre company, she probably wrote the tweet, she's denied it in person back in May too. Remember when Capaldi said he wasn't even allowed to mention it to his family? She wouldn't have said anything if it was her.

Kris Marshall's agent declined to comment, that's what an agent would do if it was them, and there's also this, I reckon it's him >>84641739

Fuck since a few days ago when someone said her odds were going up, I've really wanted Kelly Macdonald as the Doctor. It's odd this year that I've been able to think of more women I'd want for the role than men - I think Ruth Bradley would be a good choice and maybe more realistic.
Both more exciting ideas than safe, reliable Marshall anyway.

>>84644610
It's either chinese or japanese, we just know it's asian.
Chinese kinda makes sense because of the market, but I don't think China allows time travel stories there.
On the other hand, Jap women are on the rise in mainstream attention and Doctor Who is pretty much a live action anime, so they can get the weeb watchers.

Chinese goverment censors media depending on their content. Ghostbusters is banned there for example, because supernatural shit and the occult.

Usually Time Travel is banned because it "promotes feudalism, superstition, fatalism, and reincarnation", but there's a lot of chinese time travel movies. It depends on how it's done, I guess.

>>84644820

This. Missy has been kinda terrible this season, but man this episode took the cake. Not only was she constantly drooling over the doctor whenever he spoke to her, but also was drooling over the Master pretty much the entirety of their time together. That said these past two eps were perhaps the worst the season has managed to put out, and thats saying a lot.

REMINDER

NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

>>84645978
Michelle Gomez was perfect casting for a female Master. But Moffat basically turned what was an iconic powerful villain into the Doctor's weepy reformed girlfriend.

>>84644289
Im really pissed he's not doing trek.

>>84646044
Well, I like my doctors how I like my salsa.
Chunky.

And the Cyberbill says...

>>84646153
I hate the idea of redeeming the Master, female or not. The Master should never turn good.

>>84646153
The casting wasn't bad but yeah Moffat basically fucked the character so badly.

I confess.

Missy dying and the Master laughing because he wins again broke my heart.

The good Missy from World Enough and Time basically sounded like River didn't she?

>>84646338
>>84646367
Missy was awesome. She was the Master, through and through.

>>84646368
No shame in that.

>>84646432
She sounded like Tasha Lem.

>>84646368
Heart doesn't have bones, how can it be broken?

>>84645601

>There were plenty of embarrassing moments though, many of which featured Missy or the Master.

Fixed that for you, also get a grip.

>>84646432
That's The Moffat Female Character for you, for there is only one. Snarky, flirty with the Doctor and always more capable and awesome than him. Just like all male characters written by Moffat are just him, all female characters he writes are Moffat with boobs.

>by the time the Doctor was in his fourth body, the Master had already been through an entire 13 faces regeneration cycle

Now let's try to picture how he died each time.

>>84646462

Tasha Lem from the Time of the Doctor basically sounded like River, didn't she?

>>84646433
Missy wasn't the Master because the Master would never turn good.

>>84646462
So like River then.

>>84646368
And the Doctor will never know, which is the icing on the proverbial cake.

You forgot, "and slavishly devoted to his worship". I can't believe the Mistress became the Doctor's number one fangirl. At least she didn't want to jump his dick.

>>84646506

Delgado's Master was apparently the 12th Master and Beevers was the 13th and last incarnation, then he got crispy. Which means that the Ainley, Tipple and Roberts Master are all the same incarnation, just stealing bodies.

It's not until the Macqueen Master where he gets a new regeneration cycle, which later leads into a regeneration into Jacobi, then Simm, then presumably Gomez.

But the Master was going to actually properly permanently die in that story. Missy/the Master will just be resurrected again somehow, and presumably Chibnall will make him/her an antagonist again. His problem is how the hell he's going to explain away Missy's redemption.

>>84646900
Missy is last Master and dead forever.

>bypass time dilation (a physical impossibility)
the fuck are you an about?

>>84647785
The thing is, the Time War is a forever War. It never ends. It messes with your mind. Friends you saw die come back. Sometimes, you Wake up shivering, with the phantom screams from the death of a family you don't remember having going through your mind.

We don't really notice, cause we're just following the Doctor's adventures. But the Time War is a forever hell, where even the good days are short-lived, or erased. Rassilon is a foolish weakened husk of his former self, but make no mistakes, you would be too if you had to guide your people through that hell. And without the War Doctor, the hell had gotten worse.

For many in Gallifrey, death would have been preferable to that torment. Pity a Time Lock doesn't ever really allow you to die. You just become a frozen piece of time.

And when the Time Lock fell, Rassilon, brought back for war, had to be a peacetime leader. That was never going to work. I, personally, think Rassilon was glad that the Doctor returned. He needed an excuse to leave.

Nope, there will be no Chinballs era. Nothing post-Hartnell was real. The Doctor can't regenerate. The Doctor has been imagining himself as a neigh immortal, powerful, ultra-intelligent adventurer. When, in reality, he's old, fallible, racked with guilt, and very mortal. The Christmas special is going to be dark as fuck.

I feel like McGann would actually work best. Seeing Tennant all fucked up and mangled would really rustle some jimmies so I guess I'd be down for that, I don't think his Doctor works very well for that kind of story. Ecclestone could work well. Smith doesn't seem like he could carry the episode just own his own, he's too fun and goofy and would need someone to bounce dialogue off of.

Is Capaldi's era for clever people only?

Series 9 Clara with Capaldi was infinitely better than the 8 one.

I'd say Capaldi's era stories are shit in terms of actual storytelling, suspense-building etc, but they are clever and unique and brave at their core, so it's the most adult and deep in a way.

So what do you prefer:
Shit, but smart at the core or Good, but simple at the core?

According to them, there's this emperor and he asks this shepherd's boy, "How many seconds in eternity?" And the shepherd's boy says, "There's this mountain of pure diamond. It takes an hour to climb it and an hour to go around it! Every hundred years, a little bird comes and sharpens its beak on the diamond mountain. And when the entire mountain is chiselled away, the first second of eternity will have passed!" You must think that's a hell of a long time. Personally, I think that's a hell of a bird.

>>84649855
Can't answer that, I love a mixture of both. But not everything's perfect I suppose.

I do agree with you though about Capaldi's era. Story-telling and execution were bad. But his era also featured some incredible brave ideas, and whether you liked them or not, or whether they were executed well is another question.

Remember the brave/unique things they did in Capaldi's run:
>Go for an older Doctor for the first time since the reboot
>Try another grumpy, more distant Doctor (like 6) after the previous two were much more instantly likable
>Changed the Doctor's most iconic nemesis The Master into a woman
>Had the Doctor meet Davros as a child and proposed the horrible dilemma for the Doctor of the possibility to kill a child to avoid the Daleks ever being created
>Tried a full series consisting only of two-parters (except Sleep no More)
>Tried a full episode featuring only the Doctor and absolutely no other cast
>Make a multi-Master story

All incredibly brave ideas. Now whether they worked or whether you liked them is a different story, but you can't deny they tried a shitload of new things during Capaldi's run.

In terms of themes a good one is Gunbuster. It really does a good job with time dialation. Like WEAT but better. It's literally KINO just for the ending alone. It is only six episodes and there isn't a dub and the fan service can go way over the top (especially in ep.2). apart from that I highly reccomend.

Never occurred to me just how many different things they tried with 12 until I saw that list. I don't think all of them worked out but I did like
>Changed the Doctor's most iconic nemesis The Master into a woman
Missy was one of the best things from Capaldi's run, they worked so well together on-screen and I liked how she was around more, having a presence in every series and I loved the idea of the Doctor and the Master actually being more like old friends with different views rather than just the Master being evil for the sake of it
>Had the Doctor meet Davros as a child
This was incredible to me. Although I didn't like where they went with it in the end, I applaud the idea of the Doctor meeting Davros before he became the monster he is now
>Tried a full episode featuring only the Doctor and absolutely no other cast
That was a huge risk, even Capaldi and Moffat admitted that. Yet Heaven Sent turned out to be one of the best episodes of NuWho

As for the multi-Master story, yeah I liked the idea and was very hyped but it went completely the wrong way what with Simm being underused. But Missy's final moments were incredible and once again show what a great decision it was to get Gomez to portray the Master

Hard to pinpoint when it happened though. Was it with Capaldi? Because personally I started to 'fall out' with the show around Series 6, which is odd because Smith is my favourite New Who Doctor

>>84650831

Can't say I've seen the movies. I know they conense some stuff here and there whch may smoothen things out (or even make it a bit more clunkey around the edges) but becuase series is so short i'd just watch that.

The Doctor can be heard humming Murray Gold's "I Am the Doctor" to himself as he continues to work away beneath the TARDIS console.
KAIYO: What's that you're singing?
THE DOCTOR: Just a tune I've got stuck in my head. Makes me feel like I'm doing something really important, even when I'm not.

Dunno if you were being serious but I think it's pronounced "You-un Ree-on". And he'd be great as the Doctor I think. I saw him in Misfits where he played an unpopular, awkward and silent teenager and I thought he was just a one-tone actor. But then in GoT I saw him play a character that was basically the polar opposite. He really pulled off the psychopath role. Haven't seen him in anything else but what I've seen of him shows he has great range as an actor. As for Kris Marshall, I really hope it's him as well. Just felt like I should defend Iwan Rheon because he's a perfectly capable actor.

Sounds like a North Korean dictator.

I'll be upset if it isn't Kris. His name is spelled dumbly but at least it's pronounceable. Like, you can tell it's mean to be like "Chris" but just with a K. Also it would be good to have Chris Chibnall and Kris Marshall. Kris n' Chris.

Tom Rosenthal would also be good, but his name is deceptive too. It's pronounced "Rose-en-thai-ahl".

>>84650823

I don't know, but do we think that Chibnall can bring back the ratings? I think even if ratings dip even further (they're not THAT bad, it's still constantly high in the list of most watched shows each week) it'll be fine as long as it gets big ratings overseas.

Series 6b nearly killed my interest for good. I held on until the end of Series 6 but that finale turned me off. I caught up when they announced the Ponds were leaving cause I liked them enough to find out how they would go.

Series 7 was mediocre overall but watchable and I loved the 50th. Smith's regen ep was flawed but okay.

Have you never heard of Ewan McGregor? I think Ewan is just a Scottish version of the traditional Hugh. Ewan is pronounced Hugh'n. I'll be honest though I've never seen or heard the last name Rheon. Also, why are you so obsessed with people's names having to be logically pronounceable or phonetically? Did you rage at Freema Agyeman? Do you have a secret hatred of Richard Ayoade?

Anyway, Kris would be perfect and I too would be upset if it turns out not to be him. I will be very upset if its Rosenthal though. Every time I see someone mention Rosenthal I ask myself if they've ever seen him act in anything. He's incredibly bad and makes me cringe every time he has a line.

>>84651145
>do we think that Chibnall can bring back the ratings?
A new era of Who always gets people excited and it's a great opportunity to get more new people to watch it and to reel back in those viewers who've stopped watching.
Chibnall seems to have some bold ideas, or at least that's what he's saying. But it's not just the quality of the show (though of course that's extremely important). An equal, vital part of getting DW back to where it was is publicity. The BBC need to spend a lot of money on publicity on a worldwide level, letting people know DW is back and it's different. Posters everywhere, Daleks wandering the streets of London, an intense and amazing trailer, fuck it, multiple trailers, airing closer and closer to the airdate. Maybe another world tour like Capaldi and Jenna did, where they went to Asia, Australia and America.

>>84651019
Sadly Iwan Rheon's locked onto what looks like the shittiest Marvel property yet and all his potential will be squandered.
