Our Not So Conventional Fairy Tale
#But what if it’s some sort of situation like the movie Il Mare #And she’s a historian of some kind who uncovers a manuscript #and there are a few ancient notes scribbled in the margins #and she impulsively scribbles a reply to one of the questions (her faculty advisor would KILL her if she ever found out) #but the next day when she checks out the manuscript again #there’s a new ancient note #from the original question asker #responding to what she wrote the day before #and gradually this relationship unfolds between the two of them #the original author of the manuscript #a man of his time so learned he was known as the Doctor #a virtual hermit who has gone into seclusion because of the things he witnessed when he went to war for his country #and the woman working on her graduate thesis #a conversation spanning centuries #on this enchanted piece of paper #falling in love with each others’ minds #She finds a painting of him at one point #ancient and weathered and hanging in an unvisited basement of the National Gallery #and she draws him a picture of herself on the paper one day #and then the only thing that’s left #is to figure out how to span the centuries #so they can finally touch flesh to flesh #instead of flesh to paper and flesh to ink (via gallifreyburning)

I can lose my hard earned freedom if my fear defines my world
I declare my independence from the critics and their stones
I can find my revolution I can learn to stand aloneI’m a one girl revolution

#i love that clara isn’t blinded by her faith in the doctor #like so many other companions were #through rough winds and bad weather she finally admits she trusts the doctor #but she has a realistic view of him: #she knows he’s dangerous #and she knows he makes everything up as he goes along #so yes- she’ll trust him #but to a point (via wholet)

Surprisingly, perfectionists are often procrastinators, as they can tend to think “I don’t have the right skills or resources to do this perfectly now, so I won’t do it at all.”
