Hi there, I'm Kia (not real name but pretty much the only one I answer to online or in real life). I'm 24, live in Wisconsin, and got into Doctor Who about 2013 or 2014. My ex got me into it because he loved Ten and had a crush on Amy... but since he showed it to me out of order... I really wasn't all that impressed.

Thankfully, when we broke up, I got my own set of DVDs to watch in order, starting with the ever gorgeous Christopher Eccleston. At first, I was really iffy about it and the show (because ex had kind of ruined it for me) and I wasn't too sure about Rose. But as I watched... the more I could relate to Rose. I was working retail and living life just like her. I had been dating the boy because it was expected and we had been friends and he was really nice... but I wasn't in love with him, y'know?

Well, flash forward several months and I'm all caught up and COMPLETELY on the Rose/Doctor bandwagon. Reading fanfic, checking out art, and finally delving into it myself.

Doctor Who facts: Nine is my FAVORITE Doctor. I ship Rose with pretty much every Doctor I've watched. Also with a few other characters played by the Doctor's actors. I LOVE AU's a bit too much. I'm not a fan of Moffat. I'm just getting into classic Who (I've seen the first few serials of the First Doctor, and one of the Third, Fourth, and Seventh as well as the Eighth Doctor movie).

Personal facts: I have anxiety, depression, adhd, and trichotillomania (so I may discuss these from time to time on my Tumblr). I'm a lesbian. Besides Doctor Who, I also love BBC Sherlock, NCIS (haven't seen past season 9 though, as the writing's been deteriorating), Firefly, Buffy the Vampire Slayer (going through my first watching and I'm in season 6 right now), Game of Thrones, A Song of Ice and Fire, Harry Potter, Sherrilyn Kenyon's Dark-Hunter series, and more. I love fantasy, sci-fi, action, and romance. I watch more movies than TV and mainly only watch TV on DVD or Netflix. I don't have regular net access so I download stories to read later and make a lot of edits or read fanfic when depressed... My edits are really just me playing with my photo program on my laptop and are not very good but they make me happy so I refuse to stop making them just because I'm 'not good at it'.

My Tumblr (my edits are on there under the tag 'kia edits')
My AO3 (list of all my psueds... SnogboxCopilot is just for DW though)

They are just some really great genres. LOL And while I love the romance, I only love it so long as it doesn't run the whole plot. A lot of my friends don't get that.

Oh my goodness, you feel free to use that excessive enthusiasm ANYTIME when it comes to Nine. I need more Nine lovers in my life (most of my friends are Ten or Eleven fans...).

I mean, I love Ten, love him to pieces, but Nine.....NINE. The icon/avatar I chose for this? Yeah, I'm pretty sure I stared at it for about 10 minutes before realizing I should probably move. There's just something about Nine/Rose that I absolutely adore. Just started reading a fic for thedalektables with Nine/Rose, and already the UST is killing me.

Not really an Eleven fan. He was entertaining, but he's no Nine or Ten. ;D

Ten was pretty good. But I love, Love, LOVED how CE portrayed the Doctor. And the character development in his single season from a broken man, the last of his kind... to the caring partnership he had with Rose. You just don't see it that well done often. Oooh! I'll have to look into that.

I'm in the same boat. As mentioned, I've seen all of New Who and bits of Classic... and the Eleven is the only Doctor I can honestly say I don't care for. Matt Smith is a talented actor... I just didn't like how his Doctor was written. *shrug* It's just one of those things, y'know?

Yeah, I know what you mean! I love romance but I don't necessarily want it to be the whole point of the story. If you give me an intense plot with this amazing romance I'm going to end up loving it. It's like that seasoning on food that makes it taste SO SO much better than without it.

I guess that's why I love Doctor/Rose so much, because there is this huge universe with lots of stories to explore and yet we had the really personal and wonderful romance going on too. ;)

Oh my gosh, I may use that seasoning analogy. That is brilliant!

And, YES! Like, the main plot is adventure and rescuing the universe. Him learning to forgive himself. Her learning she's more than just some chav. And there's a bit of romance thrown in, but it doesn't detract from the plot AT ALL. We still get all this amazing goodness PLUS romance.

*high five for awesome analogies*
