problematic rage gap. one partner tries to bring nuance and understanding to a tough situation. the other wants to blow up the earth about it.

so what do we suppose the Doctor even did with the Master’s body immediately after he died. how long do we think he just held him like that, sobbing and screaming on the floor, before falling into silence and rocking back, forth, back, forth. do we think the Doctor held their heads together, hoping to sense something. any flicker. any sign. any evidence of a trick, anything to dispel the reality of the cold weight in his arms. do we think Martha and Jack tried to move him, or just waited and watched as he fervently mourned the man that had tortured them and their loved ones and planet for a year. do we think the Doctor eventually stood with a face as flat as a corpse’s, the body dangling in his arms, an orange-tinted bloodstain drying on his jacket, and walked out of that room like a man possessed- no emotion, no reaction to anything at all. did he think of Torvic when he laid the body on that pyre. did he think of anything at all but the fire and the shape of his face as it melted and charred. did he think of Death as his best friend burned.

Sometimes I’ll see something happen in canon and it will just sit in my head for a few days until I think about it properly and then it takes me out at the knees. Anyway I’m incredibly unwell about thirteen using the drums as a personal broadcast/private message between her and the master in spyfall.
