A few days late on posting this but…
First let’s start with the things I did which is something for most things this time! Most things I’ve made individual posts about such as Ghostbusters - Frozen Empire (which I really enjoyed),:ABC Murders (a pretty good read), High Potential (really great and fun), Horros Greatest (which made me wanna watch more j-horro) and Stranger Things (which I have had MANY thoughts over).
Things I’ve not mentioned, or mentioned as much is Selene’s second story arc The Doll Hospital which… I dunno it didn’t really click with me. Maybe it was the content of the piece but I think it was more the doll part wasn’t really used all that well despite being in the title? Likewise The Rig season 2 didn’t feel as good as the first one. Like it started strong but it ended up with a bigger focus on corporate politicking.
Then there’s the audio I listened to Tropical Beach a sounds And Other Relaxing Seascapes #4 which ended up being so great. It was about a self help tape which was possessed so you had the voice of Micheal Palin being all sinister throughout. And damn there were some killer lines, like how did he make ‘you will get your biscuits’ sound so sinister? As well as talk about sexual assignations and Ianto having ‘nothing to be ashamed off’. Such a wild time.
Also with reading I did start two other books, Flight Of Icarus and The Thirteen Problems and the later I’ve continued to work on already this month and the former I might soon too.
Alas sickness and stress ruined my focus for this month so there’s not been a fic posted. There were a few times I got inspired and did write, but then the following day or days killed inspiration which really sucks. I hope to get back to writing when my head eases but ugh.
I did hope to read a graphic novel too before the month ended but couldn’t find the focus.
I had hoped to see something at the cinema but between a lack of energy, money and bad timing I just didn’t.

Second part of the post is about the new Doctor Who trailer which released Sunday night.
The new season (it still feels so wrong calling it season 2) looked good from the teaser at christmas but this one makes it look even better. I mean there’s so much in the trailer that I’m really curious about and Belinda is giving me Tegan energy with her demanding to be taken home.
The four main things I’m curious about:
*That Giant skeleton of… something, I wanna know what its deal is
*The episode with Mr Ring-a-Ding (the animated character that comes out of the screen) which looks really good
*The creepy thing that Ruby (I’m assuming it’s her) says ‘wants you scared’ because it ‘likes the taste’
*The Interstellar Song Contest, because how could I not love that as a concept?
Also Who related but the Doctor Who season 7 boxset arrived Monday, yipee! Though as mentioned before it’s timing is terrible because as much as I really want to watch this month is the worst for watching stuff causa the Tubbathon. Hopefully I can work in at least starting it sometime but who knows when.
Speaking of the Tubbathon it’s been really great so far. No Dice is a highlight, though the end of the first session definitely caused Owen have to change things (damnit Sloevi😭) and Twitch Master on Monday night was so fun (Freddie was so horny for Tubbo and his painting was so unhinged) so I’m curious how the rest ones. The next main event is tomorrow with Watch Box which is billed as being like big brother and has Seapeekay and Piso so will be… something.
Yesterday was a library day cause and I ended up reading some of my Who magazines and the second of The Thirteen Problems (which I really liked and figured out just before Marple said the solution). And ahh we got a visit from puppies which were so cute!
Now I’m gonna flop and maybe do some more reading (either The Thirteen Problems or the season 7 booklet) and then tonight is a big question mark. Maybe I’ll watch another Stranger Things but we’ll see.
