David Tennant on Rose Tyler | Doctor Who: The Companions
It was fantastic! I miss them!
Once the cabin has faded she stands there.. stunned. This was somewhere different or.. is it just another illusion? The latter sounds more likely of course. A long white path. But what laid at the other end.. send a shiver down her spine. Hearts quicken for a second. Eyes wide. It couldn’t be it just.. it couldn’t be..
Pink and yellow. Blonde hair in curls. Eyes the same amber colour when she met her. She’s smiling. This ‘owing smile yet.. the Doctor can’t actually believe it’s real.. “Didn’t think I’ve leave you out, did you?” And that’s her voice.. the voice she still hears sometimes, weather sleeping or day dreaming. “Course there were others I could choose.” This.. woman says. She couldn’t call her Rose, she just couldn’t. “Susan, Romona, Sarah Jane, River, Clara.. yet this face… this face is different from them. Because this face, this body… after all these years holds the strongest pull on you.”
The Doctor doesn’t say anything, not at first. She walks further and then gets onto her knees. “You want me to stay here..” She muttered. Knowing why this entity chose her. Because all the other names.. her granddaughter, best friends, even ex wife held nothing to her.
“We can have our forever, my Doctor.” It’s an instant tug at the timelords hearts. Her voice. Her saying her name once again. Here she told Eric to move on and yet… She never could. “Just like we wanted. All those years ago. You can stay here, with me.. forever.”
She doesn’t dare try to touch her. If this being even felt like Rose, as much as she sounded like Rose, she would be put in a worse position if she also felt like her. She stands her ground. “If you were truly, her you’d know how dangerous this is. The universe isn’t safe without someone protecting it. Rose.. Bad Wolf.. Whoever you are.. you know I can’t stay.. and I’m sorry. I’m so sorry about that.. You have to send me home..”
A look of disappointment is now on her face. She knows as well. But this was her chance. Her chance at ending this eternal loneliness. “I’ll have to be by myself again..”
The Doctor looks down at her hand. She’s shocked to see it dematerialising just as the rest of the world. “I know.. but look, this isn’t being controlled by you. Me being here will only make things worse. If you truly want to be my friend, you have to let me go.
She blinks, before nodding once. “Then I must say goodbye.. again.”
The Doctor, while looking to be sad herself nods to this. “I’ll never forget you. I promise.” She stands then takes a few steps back. She blows a kiss and is gone before hearing the Moment’s last words.
“You clever girl..”
So why do you think you are suited to this position?
What are your achievements so far?
What are your ambitions. in reference previous education and work history?
hey, river, run, uh, run away! i think the rain gods are gonna do that again, you know!
What if instead of gilly weed Harry had showed up to the black lake challenge in muggle scuba gear like “like where’s your advanced magic now bitches? Got me a free fishing knife with this thing”
Honestly I just want an AU where Harry approached all his magical problems with muggle solutions. Nobody knows how to handle it because he’s supposed to be there learning magic but you know what, it fucking works.
Give me Harry Potter who is like fucking MacGuyver up in this shit, creating his own non-magical solutions to magical problems.
“Potter how did you get past the enchanted keys to the Sorcerer’s Stone?”
“I used a fucking net.”
“How did you get past the dragon?”
Harry shines a little red light on the wall “works on cats, why not a dragon”
“How did you get through the hedge maze?”
“Weed-b-gone, it’s like a pound. Nothing will ever grow there again”
It’s the final battle between Harry and Voldemort. The Dark Lord begins to prepare a spell to end Harry Potter’s life once and for all when….
Reblogging because this is funny and the gif is perfect.
I’m gonna do it.
So I learned my new favorite history fact in my AP US class today. It’s hilarious and goes a bit like this
In 1989, President Bush sent troops to Panama to capture the dictator and drug lord, Manuel Noriega. But Noriega had fled to (I had to look up the full name) the Apostolic Nunciature of the Holy See. The troops couldn’t exactly get in, so they surrounded the place and has to wait him out, or somehow force him out. And it’s crazy how they did it. The literal United States Navy SEALs did this And it is real history
They blasted rock and roll music for days until he gave up
Apparently, Noriega only liked opera, so this annoyed him. But it gets better. The playlist was not only obnoxiously loud and obnoxiously American, it had a sense of irony. Here are some highlights:
Danger Zone Freedom Fighter Gonna Tear Your Playhouse Down Give It Up I Fought the Law and the Law Won If I Had a Rocket Launcher Nowhere to Run Panama Paranoid Prisoner of Rock and Roll Rock and a Hard Place Stay Hungry They’re Coming to Take Me Away This Means War Wanted Dead or Alive
And my personal favorite, and a thing that actually happened: Never Gonna Give You Up
I just… Imagine the board meeting “Huh, how are we going to force this guy out of hiding?” “Oh, I have an idea! Why don’t we blast loud rock music?” “That just might work! And we should do it with a sense of irony, just to make it funnier!”
WHO NAMED THIS OPERATION
Operation Troll and Roll.
it’s even better when you get to the part about how the national security advisor threw a little temper tantrum because the operation was “undignified”
No, I’m not really a cat person. Once you’ve been threatened by one in a nuns wimple, kind of takes the joy out of it.
So, I’m a cashier at a hardware store. The sales people on the floor have stickers and/or employee numbers that they attach to big ticket items to get “credit” for it. They don’t make commission, but it is kept track of in our systems so it can be looked up and we can see who makes the most money for the company in each department and sometimes small bonuses are given, but they’re not expected or required. It’s mostly bragging rights and bargaining chips for promotions and raises.
Tammy in the Lumber department is not a nice lady to cashiers. I don’t know why, but somehow she feels that if we make a mistake and sell something wrong from her department, it is a personal insult to her, despite there being at least 4 more people who work in that department.
So, she takes it upon herself to leave her department and come to the front of the store to read the riot act to any cashier that rang something up wrong. Now, normally, if a cashier makes a mistake, the person who finds it let’s them know in a civil, calm manner or the cashier notices their accuracy numbers are down and tries to fix it themselves. Tammy is the only person in the store who feels it necessary to loudly, and angrily lecture the cashiers. On the clock. In front of customers and coworkers. Keep in mind, that a cashier making a mistake doesn’t actually effect her personally very much at all. At the most, inventory might be off because someone sold a 2x2x8 oak that was actually a 2x2x8 fir, which, yes, is annoying but not worth humiliating a human being who made a human error.
After the second time she chewed me out, I decided that hmm… oh jee whiz, when she sells $400 worth of stuff, when I ring it up, oh boy, I just didn’t happen to SEE her employee number on it. Despite it being right next to the barcode.
I’ve told one other cashier who adopted this practice (who told another… who told another…) and so far it’s quietly spread across at least half the cashiers who’ve been disrespectfully shouted at and talked down to by Tammy. Most of us have now memorized her 6 digit number so even if she sneaks it on there, just numbers by themselves instead of including her name too, we still won’t add it.
Guess whose no longer the #1 sales person in lumber anymore? She’s not even in the top 3 as of two weeks after ripping me a new one.
Maybe don’t screw with your cashiers.
