>>85261788
Oh bugger, there's a deadline? I'll see what I can do.

Is a series of scenes also acceptable? That way I can tell the story of an episode in four or five short scenes, skipping unnecessary exposition and focusing on plot.

>Speaking at this year’s San Diego Comic-Con, Peter Davison said: “I’ve been a little distressed by both sides of the argument. The people who think it’s a great idea need to be understanding. Any change in the Doctor has a big impact. When I took over, it was a problem because I was too young. When Peter Capaldi took over it was a problem because he was too old.
>“Jodie Whittaker is a fine actress. I think she’ll do fine.” But he has some reservations: “If I feel any doubts, it’s the loss of a role model for boys who I think Doctor Who is vitally important for. So I feel a bit sad about that, but I understand the argument that you need to open it up. As a viewer, I kind of like the idea of the Doctor as a boy but then maybe I’m an old fashioned dinosaur, who knows?”
>Colin Baker strongly disagreed with Davison’s main comment though: “They’ve had 50 years of having a role model. So sorry Peter, you’re talking rubbish there – absolute rubbish. You don’t have to be of a gender of someone to be a role model. Can’t you be a role model as people?”

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, Whittaker 13th Doctor) and one of these authentic titles:
http://www.saberpunk.net/DoctorWho/DoctorWhoSerialGenerator.php
https://glyphobet.net/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.)

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

WE need more entries for classic as well as NuWho Doctors. Entries for Thirteen are accepted as well. Aug 3rd is deadline.

>>85262435
>>85262440
Glad you saw the post anyway.
Anyway, good, I'll start writing sometime this week and see what I come out with.

Out of interest, how many stories/scenes/whatever are set to be in this 2nd volume?

Reminder that Capaldi got paid the same as Smith and four to five times less than Tennant.

God this section of the Shit Trip I'm writing is like pulling teeth. It'll be worth it when I finish, but it's so fucking awkward trying to put it on paper.

Bradley already, not even fucking close. Bradley looks and acts better as Hartnell than Hurndall.

>>85262559
Hurndall isn't really trying that much. Bradley is doing it in an age where we have far more video documentation of Hartnell's performance as well as many more years of fan expectations and memorialisations of the show's past.

>>85262933
Shit Trips 2 needs:

First Doctor
Second Doctor
Third Doctor
Fourth Doctor
Sixth Doctor
Ninth Doctor
Tenth Doctor
Eleventh Doctor
Kris Marshall Doctor with Anri Okata companion
Morbius Doctor fics

Also a "What if Moffat, instead of using the Doctors, only had the rights to use Clara in the 50th" fic, and more Thirteenth Doctor fics,

I wish Moffat hadn't abandoned Twitter entirely. He should have just avoided reading any replies or mentions, and just got someone to vet anything he wrote before posting it to avoid awkwardness (he did have a habit of digging himself deeper sometimes). There were some genuine bites of wit on that old account.

I was just watching an old episode of Big Fat Quiz of the Year when suddenly David Tennant appeared as a guest to ask the panel a question.
It starts at exactly 48 minutes.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=axnWRtigsE8&t=48m0s

I'd never seen this before, don't know how rare it is or how many people will have seen this, but I found it really interesting to see Tennant there, back in 2005, talking about the role.
This aired the day after The Christmas Invasion aired. And Tennant was in the middle of filming series 2 at that time.

It's been done before, resulting in the Abzorbaloff episode I think we unanimously agree on was shit.
We also sort of see it in Osgood's character, who's a massive Doctor nerd and dresses like previous incarnations and stuff.

But if we take the concept away from Earth I think it could work. Some alien race obsessed with the Doctor, this mysterious hero who travels through space and time giving people aid etc. I could see a story where some alien race has basically over time come to worship the Doctor as a God and they want him to visit their planet so they can enslave him and keep him as some sort of idol to be worshiped.

Or maybe go slightly more crazy with the obsession, have this alien race go out and destroy civilisations with the sole intent of attracting the Doctor's attention. They defend themselves morally as they burn down cities and shout at the sky that the almighty Doctor will come and fix everything. Could be used as a moment of realisation for the Doctor, as he sees that all his travels and all his help over the years have birthed this crazed alien cult that destroys millions of lives just to see him appear. Raise the moral question again, "is what I'm doing a good thing?"

Sorry, sort of got carried away with myself whilst typing all that. Anyway, yeah, a cult obsessed with the Doctor could be interesting, but let it be aliens, not Earth humans.

So we can all agree:
>Counting official appearances only (TV and movies)
4 > 2 > 7 > 1 > 12 > 9 > 3 > 10 > 5 > 6 > 8

>Counting the Big Finish along with TV
6 > 8 > 7 > 4 > 2 > 1 > 12 > 9 > 3 > 10 > 5

>>85266726

I very much doubt that. Filming on S11 hasn't even started yet. We MIGHT get some footage specially shot for Comic Con similar to 12 and Bill with that Dalek. But I doubt even that would happen because 13 would have to be in her outfit and all signs at the moment point to that her outfit hasn't been decided yet.

Before the FemDoc announcement I was strongly against a FemDoc. Then something about Jodie's smile in the trailer made me see "The Doctor" in there. Now all this fanart. I'm honestly confused /who/ Why am I warming up to this? It feels scary, because there's still always the chance it will blow up in our faces. And I'm not one to change my mind easily. It feels strange.

I really REALLY hope they will let Jodie be her own Doctor without constantly going on about women being strong too and shit. Just be the Doctor.

Also, all this fanart makes me envision 13 as a stern but loving motherly type Doctor. I know it's a stretch to judge her character on fanart of all things, but I wouldn't be opposed to that.

I've warmed to the idea considerably since the reveal and now I'm just excited. There's always the chance they'll do the worst possible thing and make her the voice of feminism and empowerment instead of giving her her own character, but I'm optimistic. All we have to go on at this moment is Jodie's acting and Chibnall's writing. I have hope that they'll make something great out of 13.

Another thing though, all this 13 business and me warming to the idea has recently made me realize that Capaldi's actually leaving. He's got one episode left and then he's gone, his era ended. I actually got a bit sad the other day when it dawned on me that this is actually the end for Capaldi.

i have no love for 3rd wave feminism

but

it could be kinda fun if the doctor was dealing with sexism in her new iteration, as long as they don't treat it as ham-fistedly as all the 'gays in the future' PSAs they shoehorned in during the Moffart years


also; would be really fantastic to see her in extremely frightening scenarios such as the tower in Heaven Sent - probably one of the best episodes of the show evah, and i'm curious as to how a womyn doc would handle it

less punching impenetrable walls mb?

actually now i think about it, female characters haven't been that well written ever in Dr Who, so this could really suck

The dialogue is so good though. I despised The Power of Three's plot but the dialogue and the interactions and Brian were brilliant. The premise of millions of mysterious cubes suddenly appearing and nobody knows what they are or what they do was interesting. But the ending was terrible with that Shakra(?) thing.

I hope Chibnall gets better at stories. He's great at characters and dialogue, but his plots often aren't that great.

>>85267709
nah it got really stilted and cumbersome when Moffats took over, with absolutely unnecessary space marines introducing their wives who were men, or the lizard lady and her maid always going on about being married

RTD usually presented a reason why their sexual preference was being brought up, Captain Jack being some future bi-sexual dood with very liberal views on everything, including his smooch partners

i can't remember anything else homosex from the Eccleston/Tennet years, but the unwieldy stuff from Moffat was so clunky it jarred me out of the show and just screamed IT'S OK TO BE GHEY like some kid trying to be kewl and PC in front of the feminazi chicks

Same thing happened to me and amtt Smith. I was excited for Capaldi and the 50th and then it dawned on me that the crazy elastic goofy version of the Doctor would dissapear. I miss Matt honestly. He was fun. But hey, that's Doctor who for ya.

On another note, i started Classic Who with Spearhead(Pertwee) and I am now closing in on the end of his run. I'm gonna mis the old bugger. It's funny isn't it? All these regenerations later and it stll isn't easy saying goodbye to a Doctor. But i have Tom Baker to look forward to. (I hope he delivers on his fame status as the doctor.

Just shy of 2000 words of shit.

>>85267633
With all the pandering of the last season, you can expect her main rival to be the galactic patriarchy.
The Doctor's gender should never matter because the doctor never uses masculine traits like physical strength to win.

>>85268214
It can be a hard time letting go of a Doctor and getting ready for a new one.
I was only 13 years old in 2005 when Ecclestone regenerated so it didn't really hit me that much. When Tennant regenerated I did feel a moment of sadness because he'd been "my Doctor" for my teenage years, though I think it would've hit me harder if it hadn't been so overlong. I remember being anxious of Smith because he looked way too young and hadn't done much acting before, but he won me over in The Eleventh Hour.
I was truly sad when Smith left. I was hyped for Capaldi but it was tough seeing Smith go, really liked his Doctor. When that bowtie dropped to the floor I had a definite moment of mourning.

And now Capaldi's going. Forever. And I've only recently really realised it. It's going to be tough.

>>85268359

>>85268430

>>85268332
> With all the pandering of the last season

Chibbers isn't The Moff. Moffat is really fucking bad at these kind of things. Jack was written as a dude from the year 5000 who would fuck anything with a pulse, hell he hit on robots. He was a bisexual or whatever, but he didn't remind you of it. He just hit on everything. Jack under Moffat would be insufferable.

>>85268511

>A"What if Moffat, instead of using the Doctors, only had the rights to use Clara in the 50th" fic

> More Thirteenth Doctor fics

Also, fics focusing on the companions would be appreciated. And, if you want to write a Who story about any other part of the Whonisverse, that's allowed.

>>85268332
>The Doctor's gender should never matter

i have to disagree, with every Doctor there is a new personality usually reflected by their age and appearance - for example, Clara is chided by the Lizard lady one time for not accepting an older Capaldi, stating that his earlier face was his was way of flirting with the Universe, and now he was being more sincere and looking like he felt on the inside

gender has to play a part in the doctor's transformation, even subconsciously, they are wanting to say something to the cosmos

poop knows what kinda dumb reason a dude wants to be a gril though - that's weird

First three Seasons of Baker are GOAT, rest not as good but still some great stories.

>>85268430
> emember being anxious of Smith because he looked way too young and hadn't done much acting before, but he won me over in The Eleventh Hour.

Smith was amazing at channeling the "Old man in a young body" thing. And yeah, it will always be tough to let go of a Doctor. Personally I had the same thing with Eccelstone. He introduced me to the concept and went out rather gracefully. It actually hit me harder when I rewatched NuWho with a friend. Nine was so distraught coming fresh of the Time War. He honestly seemed a bit happy to regenerate. Which made it even more sad.

you just got TROLLED by TROLLIN BAKER!

Conveniently, the show’s sixth Doctor, Colin Baker, was present and willing to respond to Davison’s doubts.

“They’ve had 50 years of having a role model. So, sorry Peter, you’re talking rubbish there ― absolute rubbish,” he said. “You don’t have to be of a gender of someone to be a role model. Can’t you be a role model as people?”

This. If anything, he's fairly terrible at regnerating.

am i wrong for crying at that episode of torchwood where jack and the other gay jack guy from the war fucked and made love and all that shit

>>85268807
>The Doctor doesn't 'choose' this.

yeah he does, there's some subconscious drive to make his appearance regenerate

you see that when Capaldi first looks into a mirror and yells 'why did i choose this face - it's an angry face - with eyebrows - oh and this voice, i'm scottish, you can really do a lot of shouting when you're scottish'

now i'm happy to be corrected, but i'm pretty sure that since this happened during one of the actual episodes that appeared on actual television and actual internet streaming sites on the actual worldwide web, that makes it canon

>>85268863
this is epic

>>85268967
The first episode with Capaldi has Matt Smith saying "please tell me I didn't get old, anything but old," and it's constantly brought up in the classic series that Romana is miles better at regeneration that him, and that the Doctor sucks at it.
A subconscious message is one thing, but he certainly doesn't have tangible control over it, which means it is highly unlikely he will "choose" to be a woman.

>>85268697
>yfw he transformed into a girl solely to bang Bill

>>85268967
And the very last thing Bill tends 12 is "you know I like girls my own age, right?"

Twelve might turn into a woman as homage for Bill.

dude, you have two separate instances within the same episode alluding to the Doctor having some drive to be what he appears as

i'm happy to say he sucks at it, and i'm happy to say it's subconscious - which i pretty much have done now... twice*

but there is definitely some reason he transmogrifies into whatever he regenerates as, and there's an active desire to do so

I think it's fucking stupid to assume that just because a Jamie Mathieson episode said this once that you think Chibnall is going to come up with a "reason" why the Doctor became a girl. This is a show with 50 years of history, and to think that a showrunner is going to abide by every established rule over those 50 years is a tad retarded.
The chances of Jodie actually having a reason for being a girl and it not just being a "hey look this is what i ended up as, regeneration sure is a lottery" like every other regeneration are very slim.

>>85269100
>Twelve might turn into a woman as homage for Bill.

lol

i was genuinely thinking it may have been influenced by feeling some sense of romantic feeling toward Missy

... possibly not wanting that to happen again

or maybe he thought it was necessary to think like her, and so know his enemy better

or there could be a maternal instinct for the cosmos playing a part, especially having lost a companion so recently and thinking he needs to be better at protecting people

there's loads of possiBILLities

>>85269268
If the chance of becoming a girl are so slim, don't you think that deserves an explanation more than any other regeneration?

>>85269328
No. Capaldi only got an explanation because it was his second DW appearance.
Missy had no "reason" for being a girl, 13 won't either.

She seemed pretty happy when she found out about Jodie though.

>>85269776

>>85269597

I think it's a mix of many reasons. the biggest being that the revived series has been on the air for like 12 years running (few shows go over 7, even other big scifis like Trek), and with the Moff gone, they needed something different. And that spills over into the publicity category, but it's also more than that.

okay chibnall this is taking it a bit too far

>>85269181
I see it more as something lingering in his mind somewhere, but something he actually chooses to do. With the Doctor it's more that he changes into something he needs to be, rather than something he wants to be. Somewhere in his mind he probably wants to become a kinder person, but seeing as how he sucks at regenerating it turns him into a woman.

>>85270336
forgive me, but when i speak of subconscious drives i speak to the idea of primal needs-driven determination, not an active or conscious decision making process where one matches the carpet and cushions, getting every detail just so

so i tend to agree with you, there's a 'need' the doctor feels when he changes

of course, this whole scenario could have been the writers trying to get round the fact that Capaldi was a father in doomed Pompey back when Tennent paid a visit - making vague allusions to him 'choosing such a face' and not knowing why, while across town Lizard Lady explains to Clara that it has something to do with how he feels deep down

of course, if Capaldi was the Doctor presenting himself as a paternal figure, another subconscious reason for presenting as a womyn might be the need for balance, and a well rounded Doc must bring his maternal nature to bear


and yet, that kinda thinking flies in the face of regressive-left ideology, since they argue fiercely that men and women aren't different and gender is a construct

but then the regressive left is logically incoherent everywhere else, so why would they start making sense on some spooky sci-fi /tv/ show for kids

a bit off-topic but sonic the hedgehog comics has ended their contract with archie and will starting one with IDW, the same with DW.

The End of Time to the story immediately after, The Eleventh Hour, is possibly one of the biggest episode-to-episode quality escalations in the history of the entire show.

If you just mean The End of Time itself, then, not by very much.

>>85270980

If it's true that Chibnall's only using new writers that's great, but it'll be a shame to let Mathieson go. I always thought he should be groomed by the next showrunner (Chibnall) in order to eventually become showrunner himself when Chibnall leaves.
Mathieson wrote some great stories but is still to inexperienced to be showrunner, but he has the potential. I always hoped they'd sort of keep him on and groom him to take over one day.
