I rewrote/edited/improved the beginning and ending notes for these fics on ao3, in case you’re interested :) I’ll leave the screenshots here:

This scene is single handedly responsible for calibrating my personal moral and political compass. It isn't exacly the source of my values, but it encapsulates so many lessons and highlights the wisdom that gets forgotten by so many. And it deserves to be talked over and over again.

"I had to do what I've done" "So was I" "We've been treated like cattles" "So what?" "We've been left to fend for ourselfs" "So does everyone." "It's not fair" - 'Tantruming child' Doctor calls Bonnie later in the scene. Why I don't use tiktok or don't generally follow any influencers emmotionally commenting on political and sociological things. Most of them sound like children to me and for every comment I have the urge to just ask "So what?"

"These things had happen Zygella, their are facts." - I've met dozen of people who, in my experience, felt like have nothing to add but complains about everything. Then you listen to what publicist say in television, and it's once again, mostly complaining or trying to "define facts". Facts are the most stubborn things in the universe, speaking after a certain, devilish cat. In my opinnion approximetly 80% of talking that is made around the facts is just wasted mambling.

"You're not superior to people, who were cruel to you. You're just a bunch of new cruel people" - it doesn't need a comment.

"The only way anyone can live in peace, is if they're prepared to forgive."

"... because like every other tantruming child in history, Bonnie, you don't actually know what you want." - Fascisc, Rasist, Misogynist, you can call me any insult in your book, I will not openly support your movement unless I specifically like your end goal offer, "We fight against (insert any modern problem)" will not cut it.

"When it's all perfect and just and fair, when you have finally got it exactly the way you want it, what are you gonna do with the people like you. The troublemakers. How are you gonna protect your glorious revolution from another?" - NOONE'S vision of the world is gonna satisfy everyone. You believe your vision is worth fighting, there are people who believe opposite vision is worth fighting for. So if your vision of the better world is settled on the idea that everyone is going to think like you, you are delusional and striving towards tyranny.

"Nobody wins for long. The wheel just keeps turning."

"This is not a game, Kate. This is a scale model of war. Every war ever fought right there in front of you. Because it's always the same. When you fire that first shot, no matter, how right you feel you have no idea who's going to die. You don't know who's children are going to scream and burn. How many hearts will be broken. How many lives shattered. How much blood will spill until everybody does what they were always going to do from the very beggining, SIT DOWN AND TALK!" - Just Peter Capaldi acting his heart out. No war is justified. That's not to say it's never right to fight in a war, but no war ever fought in the past, present or future, will have any sense, ever.

"You know what thinking is, it's just a fancy word for changing your mind" "I will not change my mind" "Then you will die stupid" - changing your mind is not a failure, never forget that.

"Well here's the unforseeable, I forgive you, after all you've done, I forgive you." - Treating someone like they are your enemy never made them your ally.

When the Levee Breaks took out another with no effort! This is it's last battle, win loose or draw! If it wins, it's toughest opponent will take over!

Let's see if it can beat this fan favorite!

“Oh god, that’s actually tequila. I thought you were just pretending it was to make yourself feel better.”
