Another day another addition to the menagerie of art where I turn my Fallout OCs into beasts and creatures.
Done for a large Comic Creator Collab, which can be found in the first reblog to this post!

The Tomlinson family are back in Doncaster together for Christmas Eve. Lottie Tomlinson posted a photo of son Lucky and fiancé Lewis Burton, with a hand-drawn Happy Birthday football card for Louis (possibly saying, “Happy 32nd Birthday, Dad”— And, someone is playing guitar behind Lucky).

The issue with RTD and class and why the 13th Doctor not giving Dan’s house back isn’t as big of an issue as some of y’all have been making out.
RTD’s go to for his companions exits (Minus Martha, funny that) is to give them a buttload of cash. Rose lives in another universe with her own special boy (Tentoo), her rich dad which is exact same as the dad who died in her universe, and her mum. Donna lost her memories, but she still ended up winning a triple rollover on the lottery.
Rose is lower class, but Donna’s family aren’t, you can argue about whether Donna is, but she really doesn’t fit into what a lower class person is in Britain because she lives in a semi-detached house in the middle of London with Sylvia who is everything that a middle-class woman is. (Those houses if sold are roughly £1,000,000. I’ve checked.)
But none of that matters because even if Donna was lower class like Rose was, they’re no longer lower class now because RTD’s idea of fixing that is by giving them a shedload of money. Rose’s family in Pete’s World were 100% not lower class.
How many lower class people get out of poverty because someone, somewhere gave them money? It doesn’t happen unless you’re extremely lucky and win the lottery. Donna wasn’t lucky, 10 just cheated the system.
And so, onto Dan. People paint 13 like she’s just nasty for not restoring his house, but when could she? Dan was travelling around with them, he’s not one to ask for anything, he refused soup when he had nothing in his house. Then when he left, she had bigger things to deal with like the Daleks, the Cybermen, the Master, the fact that she was forced to regenerate, and then being changed back, and then being killed by the Master...
She didn’t have time to think “Oh! Dan’s house is still small, I wonder if he still has it?” It’s just... why is 13 always pulled apart for any decisions but RTD’s special boy 10 can get away with giving Martha and her family Trauma for her leaving gift.
The entire thing behind Dan is that he’s extremely poor because he doesn’t ask for help. His parents would help him, the food bank wanted to give him food, Diane reminded him that he has a trade, but he doesn’t want to either accept help or do his trade. He’s a proud man even if it works against him.
There is also the other thing that even if he still had his house (We don’t know if he does) it might not even be a place that he could live in.
Sometimes, as sucky as it is, poor people lose their houses and Dan losing his, although caused by an alien, is still a point in real life. He’s poor, he’s not lucky, he’s not won the lottery or had a rich family... he’s just Dan and he’s just lower class.
Like millions of other Brits living paycheck to paycheck, wondering whether they need to spend it on rent or food, or whether they can ask their parents or friends for something.
That’s why if Dan’s problems were fixed because the Doctor decided to get him a house it’ll be a slap in the face for me, and millions of other people who don’t get to be lucky.
