I liked Merlin's first season – I thought they'd give Arthur and Morgana more time to be cute and slightly dysfunctional non-incestuous (because they weren't related there, it was just a weird ward situation if I remember) non-siblings but then I heard form people that she'd turn full on evil very fast and there wouldn't be any fun banter scenes with Arthur anymore or any good friendship scenes with Gwen and I was nah, not here for this.

Oh, I thought most of my interests were on my profile page – on my main page like yeah my banner and main icon are from Upstairs Downstairs (2010) – Hallam/Persephone played by Ed Stoppard and Claire Foy aka the scandalous ship of the show. I do like period drama – Manhattan, The Americans, Downton Abbey, Babylon Berlin, Das Adlon – also Reign (I used to have a tumblr where I posted all my Reign fanart), Dickinson, The Great, Britannia, Barbarians. Other favourite shows include Alias, The Magicians, The Outpost, 12 Monkeys... — and yes Doctor Who. I never did any Doctor/Companion shipping until Twelve (Capaldi) and Clara but there were just too adorable. Matt Smith era: Season 7 halfway through is when Amy/Rory leave and they switch with Clara.

Ah! I used to be big into Downton Abbey a few years ago. Reign,gosh,that show is terrible at times but also so good,haha! I watched all of it in 2019 and every now and then. How cool to know you have fanart of it! I saw someone else shipping Clara and Capaldi's doctor and I was like O_o? But then I read their explanations for it and I was like...this actually sounds interesting!
Oh,sweet!Thanks for telling me which season we get the character change!

Yeah sorry about getting so wordy about things. I really enjoyed Downton though honestly I'm still really meh about Mary's second marriage. I wasn't opposed to Charles Blake – I thought they would have made a fun couple. But other than I thought it should have been Tom. In a way of marriage of mutual friendship, respect and convience since they were both taking care of Downton and their children assuring that the legacy lives on. I felt like Henry was a version of Tom but with a minor title and thus somewhat acceptable and due to Matthew Goode's other commitments perpetually absent. It was really unfufiling. So anyway like I said sorry for rambling – glad to have found another fan. Are you excited about the new movie? What were your favourite characters and storylines?

Yeah – Reign was odd in the sense that it could be surprisingly and out of the blue historically accurate when nobody expected it to be and then it was suddenly complete fantasy. It taught me to take things in stride. I am sorry that Kenna's story went so off the rails. There is some regret there for sure but overall a lot to love. I had to delete my tumblr sadly because of when I wanted to extend my U.S. visa they suddenly asked me to disclose my social media and I was like no, not going to happen (LJ was not on the list of platforms they asked for)... even if it's just bloody Reign and Borgia fanart, this is none of anybody's business. So I deleted the whole thing.

Yeah with Twelve/Clara it came as a surprise but it was hard to unsee it once you release the chemistry. What was your favourite part of Doctor Who so far?

Also I feel like this was supposed to be a friending meme – if you are interested at all... or maybe you want to ask some more questions beforehand? Let me know! Otherwise I do not post terribly often tbh but I comment regularly and am happily available to chat and discuss fandom and other things. :)
