Alright, now let’s talk about this:
Um, excuse me sir but that is incorrect. You, as Ten, didn’t have vanity issues.
You’re old here and you think you’re going to die for good and it’s been hundreds of years… blah blah blah. Is that any excuse for this blatant rewriting of history? No.
(Couldn’t you have just said “it was a whole thing”? Then we wouldn’t need this rant! But here we go.)
Remember Rose, Doctor? Remember the pink and yellow human who joined you after the Time War and brought light and joy back into your heart? Who made you laugh and smile again? Who made you say “if I believe in one thing, I believe in her”?
And remember when you regenerated from Nine to Ten in front of her?
You would have given her this if you could have. In a heartbeat. You spent practically that whole Christmas trying to get her to like the new you! And she did, she loved you as Ten. And you lost her. You were torn apart against your will. She was devastated. You mourned her.
Then you finally get her back, just a glimpse, and you are shot down before you can even hug her.
So you regenerated and you kept your face and you played it off as vanity.
Well done. It’s almost as if you have hundreds of years experience deflecting emotions with humor. But it was so much more than that!
After everything that had happened you couldn’t put her through that again! You couldn’t put yourself through it!
Regeneration is still like dying. “Everything in me dies. Some new man goes sauntering away”. It might have been easier for Ten to be someone else. To be somewhat removed from all the emotions he had wrapped up in this woman. But he couldn’t do that. Not if he could help it. Not even to save himself some sliver of pain if and when it ended again. To deprive Rose, and himself, of this reunion would have been cruel. This time he could give her what he couldn’t last time… her Doctor.
What I’m saying is, Doctor, as you look back on your lives maybe don’t forget the people who meant so much to you. And don’t cheapen the times you were able to give someone (including yourself) something they needed.

crowley and aziraphale being asexual does not automatically mean they are sex-repulsed, please
if you headcanon them as such then all the more power to you! obviously this is not the problem here, all headcanons are equally valid. but acting like it's disgusting whenever someone mentions them having sex or doing something sexual is... kinda weird.
acting like there is something inherently wrong with them having a sexual relationship isn't that great of a take. "their relationship is so pure because there is nothing sexual" their relationship can be pure and include sex, who are you the church???!
I personally like to believe they are completely neutral and they would decide to try and proceed to have the most asexual sex ever and enjoy it simply because it makes them feel good and they like making each other feel good. but everyone is entitled to their own headcanons - none of them are inherently disgusting!
(unless you only tie their asexuality to the fact that they're not human and decide that they would be having sex because they're more "human" - which is weird towards asexual people because why are you dehumanizing us)

WIP Wednesday!!
Omg I didn't forget!! Holy shit!!!
Anyways, this week's WIP Wednesday includes some bits from Putting the "Fun" Back in "Funeral"! Enjoy :)
...
Putting the "Fun" Back in "Funeral":
The piercing neon green of his eyes bled back into their usual icy blue, though the curious look did not leave. “Why’s that? And who names their kid Batman?”
Part of the City Spirit’s dark cloud tried to nudge him back towards his couch. “The Batman,” she began, “is a hero who operates to protect my city. He was born here and donned his cape in order to help those in need from the many criminals who call my territory home.”
Danny gave an involuntary awed noise. “So you guys have heroes here, too?” A dark tendril of smog wrapped around the back of the couch, resting gently against Danny’s neck.
The idea of having other heroes around was something that greatly appealed to Danny. Being the lone super-powered protector of Amity Park for so long took its toll on the young man, even with his human companions. It just wasn’t the same, being the only one with advanced abilities. He had to take the bigger hits, he had to be the one to save his friends if they got into too great of a bind, he had to be the one to try and take on the burden of Amity Park alone when they all went off to find their place in the world. With great power comes great responsibility, after all. And being the Ghost King? Well, Danny had more than enough "great power" to spare.
The thought was just as sobering as it was exciting. Other heroes, super or not, meant that there was something to have caused those heroes to come into play. Some great villain, or a world-ending disaster, or even large crime rates. Lady Gotham only said criminals, though, so maybe there were no supervillains Danny needed to worry about.
“Yes, in fact there is a large society of both heroes and villains.”
Well, it was a nice thought while it lasted.
“But many of the aliens you were so excited to hear about are among those heroes.” Gotham continued, not noticing Danny’s sudden mid-afterlife crisis. “There is the Batman, who is one of the founders of the Justice League. Superman, Wonder Woman, the Flash, Green Arrow, and many others are all part of this superhero society - the Justice League.”
“Okay,” Danny was desperately trying to keep up with this sudden information. “So, Batman is a super-powered dude who helped to start an entire squad of superheroes?”
“He has no powers. The Dark Knight is just a man, same with Green Arrow and many others. They simply are able to keep up with the aliens, gods, and metas.”
Danny paused, taking in a breath. He touched his fingers together, pressing his palms flat. Another breath was taken, this one deeper than the last. With every ounce of teenage angst he still had within him, Danny lifted his hands up together to rest against his forehead before bringing them down in an arch that would have made Sam proud. “What the fuck.”
A laugh rolled from Gotham’s form, his guardian sneakily tightening her protective hold on him. “What the fuck indeed, Little One.”
“Okay, okay-” Danny’s voice cracked with indignation, “So regular every-day humans fight supervillains and are able to keep up with gods? And super-powered aliens?”
“Yes.”
“And one of those humans - who named himself after a bat - is the sole protector of your lair? Besides yourself? And he doesn’t let any of his superhero friends help him?”
“I never said he worked alone. Though, for a long time he did not have any help.”
“Lady G,” Danny said again with exasperation. “I repeat: what the fuck.”
Her only response was to laugh at his expense as he continued to moan about how he couldn’t seem to escape crazy people, no matter what dimension he runs to. The space shared by two multi-dimensional beings filled with an easy warmth.
“So,” Danny started after a couple minutes of his grumbling. “Superpowered people aren’t allowed in your city because one of your protectors is just a man in a… What, fursuit? A crime-fighting fursuit?” He paused, considering, before rapidly moving on. “But there are super-powered people in this dimension who are also heroes.”
“Yes, that is all true.”
The young man took a second, silently thinking, before speaking again. “Okay, okay,” He started. “And the chances that I’m going to have to just… steal all of these ghostly artifacts is pretty high, right?”
“Again, you are correct.”
“So,” Danny said, stretching out the word. “Chances are they’re going to think I’m some sort of villain.”
Gotham made a noise akin to two cars scraping against each other as she hesitated to answer. “There is a chance of that, yes.”
...
“Great,” he bemoaned, bonelessly flopping around his couch. “Guess it’s time to pull out the ol’ acting shoes. Welcome to Danny’s One-Stop Shop for Villainy.”
Mmmm Dead on Main my beloved :) Putting the "Fun" Back in "Funeral" chapter 4 should be posted sometime this week! I just need to actually finish writing a couple of POVs ^-^
