Star Wars? Yes! Doctor Who? Doctor YOU! You get the idea: it’s all here. You can read your favorite ficcers from ao3 *and* see their OC art on Tumblr *and* discuss the finer points of lore with them.
There’s fanart you’ll want to stare at, reblog, stare at again-or create yourself, and share with the community. We’ve all got that one special blorbo from our shows. Private blog? Private post? All possible here). (Unless, of course, you use our post-level reblog controls. Whatever you choose to send into our effervescent digital ether, know that it can, and will, go anywhere.
