Okay can we talk about how brilliant last night's episode of Who was?

"Let me tell you about scared. Your heart is beating so hard I can feel it through your hands. There’s so much blood and oxygen pumping through your brain it’s like rocket fuel. Right now you could run faster and you can fight harder. You can jump higher than ever in your life and you are so alert it’s like you can slow down time.

What’s wrong with scared? Scared is a superpower! Your superpower! There is danger in this room. And guess what? It’s you. Do you feel it? Do you think he feels it? Do you think he’s scared? Nah. Loser!"

- The Doctor

About a month ago I went to Supanova expo dressed as the TARDIS, spent way too much on merch, and met OLIVER & JAMES PHELPS (AKA the Weasley twins). If that's not a perfect day then I don't know what is. I have a deep and abiding love for nerd conventions. They're the rare places where people want to take photos with you if you're wearing a crazy homemade costume; where you can start a conversation with complete strangers about a fandom; you don't have to explain pop culture references to anyone and you don't need to apologise for screaming and jumping up and down because Fred & George Weasley are real and put their arms around you.
