last night a guy said to me “you are very, very pretty” and i said “i know” and he said like patronisingly “you KNOW?” and i said “you think you’re the first person to ever compliment me?” and he didn’t know where to go from there
amazing.

Yvonne Craig…
…changed my life. I was born on a small farm in the boonies, very little television, very remote. Everyone around me was a very conservative farmer.
I can’t talk about this much right now, I just found out the news.
One day I got to go to a cousin’s house and watch a rerun of the Batman syndicated show. I’d never seen it. And I saw Yvonne Craig as Batgirl and my little girl mind was blown. It is not exaggeration to say my life was changed forever.
A girl who could kick bad guy butt, who was a librarian, who had RED HAIR, who was smart, and tough, and rode a motorcycle. I can’t even begin to explain what that meant to me. I’ve said it many times, but after seeing Yvonne Craig on television, I stood a little taller in my school, I spoke up a little louder in class, and when bullies picked on other kids, I would take a stand. Because of Batgirl, because of Yvonne Craig.
To this day, a huge chunk of the joy in my life is because I discovered Batgirl, and because Yvonne Craig played her so beautifully.
The writing I do, the travel I take, the readers I meet, it’s all because I one day, a painfully shy redheaded girl with big dreams and no way to express them saw a life-changing portrayal. It may have been camp to some, it wasn’t to me.
I am not being articulate right now, I’m actually having trouble typing. But I just want to say for myself, and all the other kids of all genders who felt the same way…thank you, Yvonne.

REBLOG IF IT’S OKAY TO DRAW SEXY / NUDE FAN ART OF YOUR OC
Some people are cool with fan art, but what about naked pin-up fan art?
Go for it!
It’s not like I write ice maidens. Well, I did have two in CoH, but that was powersets, not personality….
56. How did you learn about roleplaying? How did you get started roleplaying yourself?
(( Funny thing – I’m old enough for original D&D of 1976-ish time, and I do go back that for in the RPs. It helps that my brothers are actors, I suppose. And, of course, that’s for “structured” RP. As you [Lux] answered earlier, there were these dolls before that…. ))
Reblog if you want someone to compare you to a Disney character in your ask!
55 – What do you like to do as you reply to threads? Listen to music? Have TV on? Complete silence? Dark room? etc.
(( Tunes. I have a fairly extensive music collection, and I definitely eliminate other environmental distractions with my tunes. ))

The case for Hayley Atwell to play the Thirteenth Doctor
Thanks to this tweet, can’t stop thinking about how perfect Hayley Atwell would be as the next Doctor. Let’s take a look at the evidence:
1. She’s the perfect combination of dramatic and goofy.
The Doctor is a demanding role that combines child-friendly silliness, sci-fi stunts, and serious drama. Judging by Atwell’s career in British historical movies and starring role in Agent Carter, she’s an ideal choice. Peggy Carter is a badass hero with an intensely emotional backstory, but Atwell’s behind-the-scenes antics are exactly the kind of behavior we’d love to see in the TARDIS.
