15. A relationship becomes Meanginful the moment he asks someone into the TARDIS. This isn't the ONLY barometer, but it's a huge one; if he trusts you inside his ship, wants to spend that much time in your presence, and is willing to run around having dangerous adventures with you at his side, that's a big leap that means a lot. Even if you say no!
in GENERAL i think he just sees Too Many Flower to have a definitive favourite, but i think twelve in particular has an affinity for the ones with spikes and/or poison that bloom at weird times
objectpermanence 5. answering for babs because like, she lives on the internet AND YET she keeps a handwritten journal in NML despite
when it comes to the job ofc emailing is better but there's a certain nostalgic sentimentality to handwritten stuff that gets to her, possibly BECAUSE it's so separate from being Oracle
there's also this really cute bit in nightwing where she leaves little notes to him in various places
maddie dies in 1989 so email isn't exactly ubiquitous but man, she'd choose it in a heartbeat.
if he sees you doing something he thinks is wrong that's one thing, but that has very little to do with whether it's a law or not
just picturing the au where koschei is on the barge, him and babs passing each other notes with weird math and weirder jokes interspersed with like, actual advice and intel
knowing he'd seen river for the last time was basically just "continue on with your life, but angstily"
but with clara - who wasn't exactly a romantic interest but their relationship was incredibly devoted and intense and frankly more than a little codependent, for a lot of reasons
clara died pointlessly and there was a specific entity to blame and he lost his shit completely
i feel like when he thought barry sacrificed himself to the speed force he prooobably had a similar reaction to finally, truly losing river - this was barry's choice, going out like the hero he was, dying out of courage and love. he had to respect that and keep on in that spirit
25. twelve would ruin the magic, and also the moment, by telling you exactly how and why that tradition started. and then wish on a star anyway
what he'd wish for would depend on when he does this, like for a good while it'd be "going home" which, uh, lol
(and there were good bits, and he got to be reminded of some of those, they were just overshadowed by The Rest)
really tho she can't look at one without smiling. other than that she's very fond of hybrid flowers, and flowers with wacky colours, because Skience
her stance in that nebulous time between being awakened and meeting scott were basically "eh, probably"; her focus was very much on more concrete things
then she met the x-men, and various gods, and people who could talk to spirits, and a goddess-like figure who literally resurrected her
it's a pretty solid fact to her that there are various afterlives and pretty much everyone ends up in one or another
when she died was fairly certain she'd end up in some kind of hell, if she even had a soul to begin with
21. Compassionate but pragmatic? She'd help them if she could, she wouldn't go out of her way to be cruel to them, but she'd kill them in self defence or she needed to eat. She seemed pretty delighted when she thought Kitty had a cat so I tend to think she's partial to those. (...And still did take care of Lockheed when it turned out he was a dragon)
As the Goblin Queen animals were definitely fell into the same "I give zero fucks about hurting anyone or anything" mode though
so she doesn't care about them enough for that to break through, though tbf nothing else did either
she didn't even know WHAT kind of dynamic scott and jean had in her absence she just, like, assumed and was furious
it's probably not something she'd ever, every feel sympathetic about outside of very specific circumstances
