Phone Tag - Somehow I missed the fact that yesterday (June 8, 2021) was a major holiday for Clara Oswald. To try to make amends, I’ve decided to show all the times Clara picked up the phone to call her Time Lord.
That’s not to neglect the number of times the Doctor called her…
Just saying but Dhawan Master would 100% authorize Clara, Bill and Nardole to call him Missy and he wouldn’t even bother to tell them about the ‘Master’ thing
Thursday, March 25th: Hi everyone, I’m Gemma, a bi, mentally ill disaster, who’s in desperate need of help, and I’ve had to remake this post as I’m still struggling to replace my broken washing machine.
Once again, I know this is a huge ask,and I hate to keep asking for help, but I’ve had a run of bad luck recently which only seems to be increasing, but thankfully I’m really close to my goal of having my machine replaced.
I’m due my U.C benefit payment today (£317), and I absolutely cannot afford a new one by myself, unless I avoid paying my rent, which I absolutely cannot do. And due to myself being not fit for work, and waiting for the outcome of my PIP assessment,I have no other income that can help.
If anyone could spare any amount to help me, even if it’s just £1/$1/€1, it would really mean a lot to me, and sharing definitely helps just as much as donations. Nobody is obligated in any way to donate if they can’t or don’t want to, I know we’re all struggling right now.
Would I trust them to watch my drink: Star Trek: TNG addition.
Picard: Absolutely. I think he’d be surprised by the request but too flummoxed to do refuse. He’d probably hold it in his free hand and that’d make it awkward if some diplomats came over to greet him, but even then I think he’d keep holding it. 10/10
Beverly: Yep. She probably wouldn’t hold it, but she’d sit at the bar / table with it and keep an eye on it until I came back. If there was a medical emergency, would she bring it with her? Realistically, no. But it’s funny to imagine that she would.
Riker: 100% yes. He would probably forsake his own drink to hold mine. Which means that someone will probably drug his, knowing his luck. But mine will be fine and when I apologize at the end of the episode for being the reason he let his guard down about his own drink and was consequently captured by the Ferangi or something, he would say that it’s fine and that I can get him another drink to make it up to him. Roll credits on the roguish smirk.
Deanna: Not only would Deanna watch my drink, but she seems like the kind who would keep her hand over it. Absolutely nothing skeezy is happening on her watch. Someone would probably tell her that it’s not necessary because the odds of someone messing with a drink on a Starship are low, but she would defend my right to be cautious and chide the unnamed extra for being insensitive.
Tasha: I wouldn’t even have to ask. I’d say that I need to use the bathroom and she’s already shifted my drink closer to hers and promised that she’ll watch it while I’m gone.
Data: Yep. He would be completely confused by my request at first and not totally understand why I’d be worried about leaving it by itself. But he’d either access his databanks to figure out what the perceived threat is or take my word for it. Either way, he’d be super literal about the request and refuse to look away from it until I got back.
La Forge: Iffy. It depends on context, I think. If it’s an episode where Geordi has a love-interest, I’m not leaving my drink with him. He will be too busy pining to pay attention. But if it’s an average episode, I would ask and he would absolutely hold it and keep it safe. Someone will probably make an ableist joke about a blind man being asked to watch a drink. He’s killed later in the episode and that’s just vindication.
Pulaski: I wouldn’t have the chance to ask because she’s too busy calling Data a slur.
Worf: I would trust Worf with my life and my drink. He would be shocked to discover that some people could be so dishonorable as to slip something into another’s drink and promise to defend mine, probably assuming that I have a specific person who I think will try to harm me. He would then growl at anyone who approached to keep them away from the cup until I returned. He would probably always guard his friends drinks from then on because he is very pure.
Guinan: She would simply pour me a new one when I got back. Not because she was careless but because this is her bar and the replicators aren’t running low. I imagine she killed the last (and only) person to drug a drink in her presence, anyway.
Wesley: I would ask him but he would absolutely find a way to spill it on one of his superior officers. Probably Picard. That’s just who he is.
O'Brien: Yes, I would and he would take that task so seriously that he does take the drink back to Transporter 3 if he’s called back to work. He returns my cup three days later. I say thank you and I mean it.
Lore: He’s too busy trying to drug Data’s drink to watch mine.
Q: I would ask him and he would be offended that a human would make such a menial request of him. He would probably also make some biting comment about it being a flaw in humanity that we can’t trust each other and point out that he could do something devious to my drink, himself, so why trust him? I’d tell him to forget it and say that I’ll ask someone else, which would prompt him to get offended because no one could possibly keep my drink safer than he could. He sends it to pluto to “keep it cold”. I never see it again because he’s too busy flirting with the captain to bring it back.
Barclay: Assuming we’ve spoken before, I ask and he agrees. He’s so enthused that I would ask that he manages to spill my drink on my shoes. I tell him it’s fine but he’s already running away.
Lwaxana: I would ask and she would agree happily, promising that it would be safe with her because she is the daughter of the fifth house, holder of the sacred Chalice of Rixx and heir to the Holy Rings of Betazed. She hands my drink to Mr. Homm as soon as I am out of the room.
Hi everyone, I’m Gemma, a bi, mentally ill disaster, who’s in desperate need of help right now. I didn’t expect to be asking for help again so soon from my previous post, but things have unexpectedly gotten so much worse for me.
Earlier today, Friday, October 23rd, 2020, my dog was attacked by another.
My dog is called Luna, she is a 12 year old mixed breed with the loveliest temperament ever. She barks at loud noises, but would never, ever harm anyone. On our afternoon walk, we took our usual route that is lined with residential houses and we pass by a home in particular that homes a Japanese Akita.
The dog is usually in the owners back garden and all the gates are locked. On this unfortunate occasion, the gate wasn’t locked and the Akita heard me and Luna passing by, it then came running out and went straight for my dog and made a small wound on her right side.
My dog was on her leash, she’s always very excitable and thinks that everyone is her best friend, so I keep her on a lead. The owners come running out and asked what happened, when I told them that I’d be taking her to the Vet, they weren’t happy and I haven’t been able to contact them since the incident.
Luna has three small wounds, one main one that the Akita bit into and two smaller wounds connected to it. She has been stitched back up and has been given treatment and has to return on Monday, October 26th. (medicine evidence on the fundraising post)
The total cost of the bill is £302.03 and I desperately need help paying it. I’ve created a JustGiving page for the sole purpose of showing evidence as some of the photos show Lunas stitching and blood tw/ and a description of her medical treatment. I would prefer if anyone could help me through PayPal (paypalme/GemzyM)
If anyone could spare any amount to help me, even if it’s just £1/$1/€1, it would literally save my dog, and sharing definitely helps just as much as donations. Nobody is obligated in any way to donate if they can’t or don’t want to, I know we’re all struggling right now.
