Regarding events in "The Almost People" and the rest of this season of Doctor Who: this never happens and I feel extremely proud of myself... I HAVE A THEORY, and IT'S ONE I CAME UP WITH ENTIRELY BY MYSELF. ...Well, okay, TWO theories, but ONE of them I came up with entirely by myself. Furthermore, I've not seen anyone else postulate this second

Also, one thing I should remember when setting out to watch new Who eps: for the love of [insert deity here], DO NOT WATCH BEFORE GOING TO BED!!! It makes it all that much harder to actually fall asleep! ;____; BECAUSE YES, I AM A GOOF. /0\
Also, your theories? VERY SENSE-MAKING. /nodnod/ I've yet to make sense of the ep -- I suspect I actually won't until I've rewatched all this season's eps.

Hahaha, I guess I have a pretty high Scary! tolerance; I enjoy the creepy and it doesn't really bother me. Totally slept like a baby, once I finally put my computer away.
I knooooow, I need to rewatch EVERYTHING. ...There are only two good things about the massive mid-season break we will need to suffer through. 1) Our wait between seasons will be shorter. 2) It will give me time to get my mom all caught up, and I can re-watch all of last season and this season with her and MAYBE FIGURE OUT WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON. (I've almost got her caught up to the beginning of Moffat's run; we watched "The Waters of Mars" last night.)
By the way I got your email with all of your questions and I am VERY EXCITED ABOUT IT but it's probably going to be several hours until I get my replies back to you... I've started it, and so far I've only answered the first question and my answer was FOUR PARAGRAPHS LONG and I wrote, like, SEVEN PARAGRAPHS before I even got to your first question, and most of the paragraphs are ( ... )

I AM SORRY FOR BURYING YOU UNDER A PILE OF WHAT I'M SURE IS TRIVIA, but I did warn you! :D DETAILS ARE EXCELLENT. I AM VERY EXCITE ABOUT ALL THE DETAILS. WAR AND PEACE WILL BE A BONUS. ...And now I want to say "...without the peace" at you. :DDD
In other news, it's Jizzy's bday on Friday, did you get the notification? I desperately want to finish the Harlequin AU in time, so I can maybe dedicate it to her or something, BUT DANNY WON'T TELL ME HOW IT ENDS AKJFGHAJHGFH HE IS BEING SUCH A STUBBORN IF GORGEOUS ARSE!! D: I think I'll prioritise it tomorrow, and then send it to you for the usual ripping apart if I manage to find out what happens. >.>

OMG, how have you been hiding this love for Arthur Darvill from me?! Did you think I wouldn't find out?!
We have much time to make up for, Missy!
Also: "increase in frequency?" If there are instances of Stephen Moffat hitting on Arthur, I must be apprised!

Have I not let it slip that he's adorable? Surely I have. Also, I followed his Twitter for a while and then felt really weird about it, because it was all... actually, like, personal tweets. Also I think he is a closet hipster.
But anyway... I can't prove that Moffat hasn't hit on him in the past, but I'm going to assume that even a stray passing comment from me-as-Moffat would be a marked increase. It's a mathematically sound hypothesis. (It probably would've been way more accurate to say that there would be a significant increase in Steven Moffat being awkward around Arthur Darvill and avoiding eye contact, but "hitting on" is so much funnier and more succinct. (-;)

He is most certainly adorable! And you're right, we've discussed that before--especially our mutual approval for 60s Besuited!Arthur, and his alter ego: Roranicus. (I swear: they must find more excuses to put the boy in period costumes.)
And really, I don't think he is a 'closet' anything: we've all observed the boy's ridiculous fashion choices, y/y?

I hope that's true. I really hate to picture Moffat making endless comments about Arthur's 'sexiness' the way he does with Karen!

I don't know, dude: I know we were supposed to learn a Valuable Lesson about what makes people who they are, but I'd still be a little creeped out if they replaced my Doctor with Folgers Crystals.
I think the fact of Flesh!Doctor's return is pretty much indisputable now: I just can't wait to see what they do with him! This is the first I've heard of what Stephen Moffat said re: The Impossible Astronaut, though. I might need time to incoporate his remarks into my own personal theories!
