Well, you know, it could be that the Dr. Who PTB are much more... friendly with the fans, know what I mean, nudge nudge, wink wink. Cause they'll wank the fans for them...

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Given that I met one of the Dr. Who PTB, yes.

Given that I was underage at the time, HELL NO.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

suela just made me go to the bad place.

Thanks for all the fish.

Can anyone remind me how I turn off the stupid curly quotes in Word?

Because they'll fuck me over when I try to post on BFA, right?

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Version?

It should be in your autoformat options, no matter the version.

Format > AutoFormat > Options, clear the Smart Quotes box.

Done. Will curly quotes screw me when I post to BFA?

Curly quotes are not your friend in fic posting, I have found. Sometimes they show up as little boxes or something.

IIRC, yes.

Do a search and replace (CTRL + H) for " and ', replacing them with themselves, save out as text, and you should be golden.

Thanks for all the fish.

Tried that, said there was nothing to replace.... I'll try again.

It should be able to replace all quotes, though.
