who’d nyave sonic :3

i like how the thirteenth doctor knows her life would be easier if the master was dead but ALSO knows that if she kills him he "Wins" which is completely intolerable. so she just keeps handing guns to random girls when he's in the room and hopes he says something nasty enough that they do the job for her

With the 8 episode format Ncuti should've been the first modern Doctor to have the seasons main character developing arc be about HIM. We've just had a doctor forced to regenerate into the master and then a previous face, we've had years of explorations of the doctors inner darkness and past demons. Ncuti could've been a triumphant story of somebody who's been drowning in their own dark and dower history realise the future really is something new for them and they can be somebody who coexists with their trauma but embraces the new. He starts with fake smiles, forced joy, but over his tenure learns to love himself again. Conrads story could've played into this. Once again the doctor is forced to believe they're a boring human, but instead of mourning the possibility of an easy life with normal friends he's like NO!! I love being weird!! I love being different and alien and exploring and being kind wherever I can because no day is the same and I can make each the best one ever!! We could've had a doctor with a true inspiring arc and I miss him every day.

biggest dw fandom pet peeve is how many people will look at this character who cycles through dozens of highly earnest and meaningful relationships with equal intensity and go "the writers have gravely mischaracterized dr who by suggesting they would ever love anyone outside of (life altering friendship #29)"

“it’s my party and all of me is invited” is a gorgeous line in every conceivable way. like just in general i love it but also there’s something about “all of me is invited” as it pans over to to his ex/best friend/enemy because there’s an implication that she is part of him. their relationship to each other is something that he is choosing to indulge himself in as he throws his “i’m committing suicide party” because she is a part of him. their friendship is a part of him and is as synonymous with his identity as bow ties and long scarves. how cute is that?

i think that in the sound of drums/last of the time lords, from the master's perspective the doctor is like 1) "it's all just in your head" response to mental illness when the master confides about the drums 2) implies that the only reason they should be friends now is cuz they're the only ones left (ya i guess you're fine when i have no other choice anymore....) 3) is lowkey condescending and patronizing with that whole "i forgive you" like his forgiveness is so powerful it's gonna fix him (quite literally looking down on him) no wonder he killed himself

i wish more stuff looked like that season of doctor who where they were smearing vaseline on the camera

I am an idiot for not reblogging this when the prime minister resigned again

put jo grant in school reunion and not only would you have wonderful yuri between her and sarah jane smith but also she would say with complete confidence that there's no need to fight over the doctor because he's homosexual. in fact, if he'd like to have a tryst with the brigadier while he's on earth again then jo has his phone number and can call him up right now! a pity the master's not around ):

Now that Doctor Who is over for the foreseeable future is it safe to talk about how a lot of y’all talk about Bill and her ending by focusing on her “death” more than her actual affirming queer/black ending where she transcends death and lives a full life with the woman she loves because you deep down cannot talk about black/queer characters outside of the context of their suffering so you focus on how ‘she deserved better’ to make yourselves feel like good guys - or are we not ready yet?
