Day 28: What Whoism Do You Use in Real Life?
“The sun’s gone wibbly.”
Wibbly actually can apply to many things, including computers, bicycles, and my brain. XD
Besides, it’s loads of fun saying ‘wibbly wobbly timey wimey’ whenever I can apply it to something.

Day 27: What Scene Makes You Hide Behind the Sofa?
The Silence. 0.o
Particularly when Joy and Amy are with one, and Amy watches in horror as Joy cannot remember seeing the Silence… over and over and over again.
And when Rory looks out into the dark tunnel and sees many Silence… and then tells River that it’s all clear because he can’t remember them being there.
(Not to mention that the general appearance and sound of the Silence is just freaky.)

Day 13: What is your favorite/scariest Moffatism?
Scariest?
TO BE CONTINUED
But I kid. :P
Favorite? The way he uses children to create effective stories. I talked a little about this for my answer for Day 2, but it still holds. You can imagine being that child and being scared and confused out of your mind because you can’t find your mummy. That’s what makes the gas mask zombies so scary. You completely understand that terrible sensation of being lost and abandoned so of course you’re trying to find your mother.
But what happens if you are a child and you meet the Doctor as a child? Reinette, Amy, and River all first met the Doctor when they were young. How does that impact the way they think about him? Think about this. You’re a child and still prone to believe in fantastical stories, but what if all of those stories turn out to be real? The Doctor will seem much more larger than life to a child versus an adult. Here’s a man who is the complete antithesis of what an adult is. The exchange between Eleven and little Amelia is pretty telling:
DOCTOR: You know when grown-ups tell you everything’s going to be fine and you think they’re probably lying to make you feel better?
AMELIA: Yes.
DOCTOR: Everything’s going to be fine.There is something essentially child-like about the Doctor, his innate wonder at the universe, his boundless curiosity, his eagerness to do whatever he thinks is right even if it flies in the face of authority. It makes him easily relatable to children and I like that Moffat has tapped into that kinship more than any other writer. Because even if we’re not children anymore, we still remember what that’s like.
This act of climbing aboard the TARDIS and leaving everything behind is a common childhood dream, running away from everything and having an adventure. The Doctor is Peter Pan, the boy who never grew up, and those companions who accompany him hold on to the wonder of childhood that much longer.
Come away, O human child!
To the waters and the wild
With a faery, hand in hand,
For the world’s more full of weeping than you can understand. - W. B. Yeats—and this is why I love DW, specifically Eleven. I wanna be like Eleven when I grow up. XD (sans all that time war angst but you know what I mean! :D)

30 Days of Doctor Who Summer Break: Day 12
I give up, I’ve missed so many days… I’m just doing this as I like. xD
I’m dying for a Stargate SG-1 and Doctor Who crossover.

If Daniel knew about the TARDIS, he would be dying for a chance to just peek inside, not to mention go for a spin.
Sam would be highly tempted to fix it. Or chase after the instruction manual that the Doctor threw into the supernova. Hehe.
Cam would take it in stride and be extremely helpful - after he got used to traveling unarmed.
And Teal’c, well, he’d just be Teal’c.
(It would be fun to get Jack involved. He never did care for time travel. Hehe. But the Doctor would appeal to his MacGyver side.)

(aww, Daniel’s got so much hair in season 1! Another reason he and Eleven would get along well. XD Geeks are cool.)
And, of course, who wouldn’t want to see Eleven face down a Gou’ald? (Sure, they’ve already been defeated, but wibbly wobbly timey wimey… maybe the Doctor is secretly why they have been defeated!)
Fanfic, anybody?

Day 02: What’s Your Favorite Episode and Why?

I shouldn’t be answering questions like this since I am a fan who hasn’t actually watched that much… mostly short clips on youtube. 0.o
But A Christmas Carol. In SPACE. With big flashy lighty things. And time travel. And fish.
(And I swear, when the Doctor got distracted with the fish while on the phone with Amy, I expected him to do a Gollum impression…)
