DOCTOR WHO || The Waters Of Mars mars crew my beloved

The Waters of Mars

"The Doctor couldn't imagine the wrench it must have been for Steffi to leave them behind when she went to Mars. She must have regretted it every day she had been there. He could hear her sobbing now, alone and trapped in a small room on a doomed Mars base as she listened and saw her children for the final time. "I'm sorry, girls," he heard her say. "Lisette, Ulrika. God, I'm so sorry." He heard her scream as the water finally broke through the ceiling and took her."

DOCTOR WHO || The Waters Of Mars

despite knowing next to nothing about most of the waters of mars crew members, who had few lines, little screen time & only their eulogies served as any canon information about them nine year old me was so attached to them (tarak, maggie & andy included who were unfortunately turned into the flood at this point of the episode 😭😩) i loved them so much, child!me diy'd a gadget gadget out of the recycling, i named barbies & polly pockets after them, i never shut up about these side characters, even now, at twenty-three, i'm still going on about them 😂 i still have so many emotions, headcanons & affection for them. honestly side characters of all time 🤩 rip to the fixed point in time & all that but i'd have gotten ed, steffi, tarak, roman, maggie, andy, mia, yuri & gadget off of that base before anything sinister went down.
