#oh and amy and rory

[mollspeak]

shipping two characters you love equally is difficult because on one hand, you want them both to be happy, but on the other, you want one of them to be put in danger and the other one to go absolutely batshitfucking insane to get them back

why is it that literally Every Single Woman moffat writes as a love interest for the doctor is someone he meets when they're little girls and he's a grown ass man and they all grow up idolising him. and he also has a whole episode where a grown woman befriends and spends a day with a child every day for her but once a year for him and then she gets with him like a few days after meeting him as like an 8 then 9 then 10 etc etc year old. i need this man to die

#like this happens. at least four times. the only exception is missy which is a whole different beast #when i make the video essay abt moffat what then #watching his era like crawling through broken glass fr please just stop writing women please im begging you #and at least i like 11 and amy rory river. even if the era sucks at least my little guys are there #but oh my god . ohhh my god im already dreading . what's next. #i think im gonna just like. start every episode and then skip when i get annoyed coz lord 💀 #doctor who #anti moffat #anti steven moffat #dw lb

You know I think it's really funny that I hate Time travel AUs in fanfic and I don't tend to like writing it in original fic...and I just wrote 269k of a giant Doctor Who AU. And I'm working on another one. And I've been thinking about the why.

There's just something about that mad man and his big blue box and the focus on the humanity of it all. The time-travel ship and the sonic screwdriver and all the other technology used as vehicles for character development and even the ship as a character in itself. The focus of the story being on the effects of time travel, yes, but far more about the ways in which time affects people than the ways in which people affect time...characters as their own ghosts...characters that can't die loving people who can do nothing but...it's about the plot but it's really not because it's just about the characters above all else. About the codependent relationship between two people who will haunt each other forever, no matter what happens to them. About how every companion asks what happens if they die before they're born and sometimes they do, because sometimes there's no other way this story ends. Time travel as a vehicle for the cycle of grief. As a vehicle for life. As a vehicle that is as much about this ship and this alien stealing you away from your life and you stealing their hearts in return. About grief and guilt and protectiveness and kindness and selfishness and constant renewal and running to things before they flare and fade to dust and going to the ends of the universe for each other and the people you meet along the way.

...what was I saying? Oh, right. I think Doctor Who fundamentally works for me because it's not about the technology of the time travel; it's about the avenues it opens up. About the fact that the time travel is paired up with the immortal/mortal dynamic, and aliens and all of the universe, about this immortal alien with ghosts in their eyes giving everything that ever has been and ever will be and ever could be to some mortal, fragile, breathtaking, stubborn, brave, reckless human and saying it's yours. You're going to watch it break. It's going to break you. And that's going to break me. But at the end of the day, it's beautiful, isn't it? Now take my hand, and let's run.

(And it's about the people who can do nothing but say yes.)

the big bang feels almost. biblical in its scale. something along the lines of, and the TARDIS so loved the earth she kept it alive for millennia at the death of the universe, burning forever at the centre of things, the final star in the sky, because hope itself was the only hope left

turns out i don’t really hate the …deification.. of the doctor that initially put me off this era all that much. it’s because there’s been a genre shift and i hadn’t adjusted (embarrassing for a person that’s always talking about ‘genre awareness’). morphed from a sci-fi drama to a fairytale, a myth, a legend, that’s why the characters feel flatter: they’re not people, they’re tales. with rtd the story orbits the characters. with moffat, the characters orbit the story. it’s all for the narrative itself. and the doctor is synonymous with the narrative, that’s why everyone and everything seems to revolve around him now, he is the story!! the TARDIS becomes the sun because the earth revolves around it! and although all of this makes it a different show entirely, i don’t particularly mind

in the amelia pond au, amelia’s aunt does still send her to therapy between doctor adventures, but since amelia is now secure in the fact that he’s Definitely Real since both rory and mels have also met him and because she lost a tooth last week from tripping on the stairs of the tardis, she doesn’t bite any therapists this time around. and besides, her therapist is a very funny lady. she reminds amelia of her doctor, with how her voice will flip and jump in volume and accent and tone on a whim, with how she’ll talk to amelia like they’re conspiring together. she keeps the pictures amelia draws of the doctor and their adventures for her, even hangs one or two on the walls. she listens very intently to every detail, which no adults in amelia’s life do save the doctor himself and river song, whenever she’s around. and best of all, whenever she tells amelia’s aunt that amelia is doing just fine, don’t you worry, she’ll grow out of this, she winks at amelia so that amelia will know her therapist is only playing along to wave away her aunt’s suspicion.

it is a little odd, though, that she insists on only being called Missy. but amelia is quite used to odd by now.

#not the point of this post but. please do imagine amelia and rory and mels and the doctor all having escaped from Real Actual Danger #rory has the energy of a cat with its fur all puffed up and looks like he’s either going to start crying or yelling at the doctor #mels is standing on the box the doctor got her so she could see the tardis console better and studying the way he flies it very intently #and amelia is still full of energy and adrenaline and can’t stop racing around the tardis like a hyperactive gerbil. because if she stops #she might have to be scared instead but if she can run long enough she’ll forget to be scared at all and when she collapses exhausted all #she’ll have left are the exciting happy memories #and then she misteps racing up the stairs. shouts! the doctor and mels and rory are all at attention immediately. mels moves first but rory #is closer and helps amelia back up. and then the doctor is crouching down in front of her. ‘let me see. oh that’s a lot of blood. that’s. #how much blood are you able to lose again? its more than this. probably.’ amelia’s whole face hurts. but the doctor’s rambling is familiar. #it helps. and he’s only so talkative when he’s sure he has a solution. besides. rory’s head’s nestled on her shoulder and mel’s got her #hands. the doctor wipes blood off her nose and her chin. tilts her head up and goes ‘aaa’ sticking his tongue out until she does it too. #and he tells her to feel her upper row of teeth with her tongue. she does until she finds the gap. #it still hurts. hurts more when she nudges it with her tongue all bleeding and raw. but she just lost a tooth! and you know what that means. #they have to find it. or else how will the tooth fairy leave her any money? #(the doctor hears her say that to mels as they search. and he glances off to the side and makes a note to go back and make sure it *was* her #aunt leaving her those coins. and not something else. which he does. and finds out her aunt wasn’t leaving her any coins at all. #he can’t just let that stand! so the doctor becomes amy’s tooth fairy as well.) #and that is how amelia loses a tooth on the tardis. #amelia pond au

The last Centurian

Yes, I'm still chewing my way through Doctor Who...

If they don't fight for me the way RORY WILLIAMS does for Amy I don't want them lmao. Can we just appreciate the man?! The fucking lengths he went to for Amy. Muah. Beautiful. And to top it off those scenes where we see the lengths Amy would go to to be with Rory. Ahhhh. I'm not saying they're perfect. However, the love is there. Love that I envy haha.

This is likely good documentation for why I will never find a partner. Standards are too high.

I forgot to watch Survivor tonight and instead watched a 60 minute long video essay called Martha Jones Deserved Better (And Other Correct Doctor Who Takes)

I regret nothing.

#martha jones #doctor who #forgot to watch survivor is a strong way of putting it by the way #it was more i didn't feel like sitting through commercials so i'm just gonna watch it tomorrow instead. #the first 2/3-ish of this video are about RTD and Martha and then the last half is about Moffat era mostly River #anyway. i have 2 small complaints about this video: #1) the angel sending amy to the same time as rory had canonical precedent from billy shipton in blink landing in 1969 too #so i get it seems very 'oh of COURSE she conveniently will end up in the same time' #because prior to that point there was the complaint of weeping angels going from scary to stupid #but that aspect of the angels was there from the beginning #2) i adore clara so i'm sad the video creator has 'avoid-Clara-itis' or however she worded it #but i get it. #a small third minor complaint is that the creator said she has been wary of properly watching Bill's season #and also Jodie's seasons because she is scared of more mistreatment of companions of color #and she seems to not be aware of the existence of Ruth!Doctor at all. i hope she'll like her. #but i hope that she does watch it eventually. especially because Bill was a definite improvement. #almost purposefully meant to be like 'yes Martha had a scene like this but this time Bill gets a better outcome' #and she also says she wanted to know who was in the writing room for Jodie's era and that's one of the best things about Chibnall #that for episodes like Rosa and Demons of the Punjab the co-writers were people of color from the specific cultures #anyway besides those small things i was watching this video like girl you are preaching to the choir #highly recommend for all my fellow Martha Jones Defense Squad members #Youtube

alright. god. I finally got to The Angels Take Manhattan.

okay, here's the thing: I was going in expecting to cry, right? but not really, cause not once in this entire show have I cried outside of something being related to rose tyler. but also, extremely attached to amy. I mean, seriously. she's my second favorite companion by a landslide.

so when I barely even teared up at rory and amy bloody falling together I didn't think it was gonna happen! I thought, oh, y'know, if this doesn't get me surely nothin' will. well. WELL.

suddenly rory is taken and amy is ready to go after him because it's amy and rory together as it should be and eleven is begging for her not to and then he says my favorite catchphrase of "come along, pond" but then he adds in that "please!" which utterly fucking ruins me (I mean, I'm already crying, yeah? this had me... oh man. sobbing might not even cut it. that shit fucked. me. up!) and then she says "raggedy man, goodbye!" and I've been got. I mean, I'm crying so hard I'm lightheaded. my sheets are soaked, my face is disgusting, my glasses need to be cleaned. I'm a right fucking mess.

this doesn't have a point I'm just so distraught right now. like. I just. I didn't. ohhh. I didn't really think I had it in me to care that much anymore! not about this! it's Doomsday all over again! GOD. I think I'll be a bit sad but ultimately fine and then I'm NOT. fuck! fuck me, man. amelia pond. I love you

#sorry another annoying reaction post by yours truly #not NEARLY as long as my je reaction but. oh. I'm feeling man. I'm feeling so much more than I thought I would #amelia pond you made me feel something and I'm so glad I did #also can I just say this episode is what finally got me to warm up to river #I think I'm starting to like her #I will say though I'm excited to meet clara! or whoever else comes next! but ough. amy. amyyyy #I'm gonna miss her so much #and rory! #I didn't really talk about rory but after the rebel flesh I really started to like him #amy and rory you are absolutely everything to me #those three. them!! it's the doctor with amy and rory pond!! #different from the doctor and rose tyler but. not a bad different. just different #eleventh doctor #amelia pond #rory williams #doctor who

The woman who kills the Doctor (11933 words) by Hvis_og_bare_hvis Chapters: 6/6 Fandom: Doctor Who (2005) Rating: Mature Warnings: Graphic Depictions Of Violence, Major Character Death Relationships: Eleventh Doctor/Mels Zucker, Amy Pond/Rory Williams, Eleventh Doctor & Amy Pond & Rory Williams & Mels Zucker Characters: Mels Zucker, Eleventh Doctor (Doctor Who), Amy Pond (Doctor Who), Rory Williams, Background & Cameo Characters Additional Tags: Angst with a Happy Ending, Heavy Angst, Murder, Child Murder, Harm to Children, Self-Sacrifice, Healing, Eventual Fluff

Summary: The Doctor, Mels and her (still oblivious) parents are celebrating the survival of their latest adventure when accidentally, a shot is fired. Mels is hit fatally, which makes coming clean and telling Amy and Rory who she is a sudden matter of urgency. Which isn't even the worst news: She doesn't suspect yet that regenerating will weaken her resolve to go against her programming and let the Doctor live. And unfortunately, neither does he

I published the lkh rewrite with girlfriend/boyfriend Mels x Eleven I wrote about half a year ago!

[ID: gif of Mels and the Doctor in front of the TARDIS. She says "I'm their best mate" and he answers "Then why don't I know you? I danced with everyone at the wedding." end ID]

Because of course, the Doctor should have known (& dated) Mels long before lkh takes place. So I made her a companion. Which would lead to quite a different situation in the actual episode. Quite a tad more angsty but also Mels gets to make her own decisions and not just the ones the plot demands of her <3

I also got rid of 1940s Germany because why include nazis when you can do without, right? Instead, we're getting a nice spaceship because when the Doctor dies, there should be stars.

(Warning/Explanation: There's a lot of blood in this one. And for some reason my mind produced a bunch of child extras, so the 'Harm to Children' tag is there for psychological damage due to witnessing multiple people being killed. The 'Child Murder' tag refers to a kid accidentally shooting Mels.)

@marvellouspinecone and @jennyandvastraflint I gifted this to you, not sure whether you have seen. I hope that was okay. You just both accompanied my writing process and gave me ideas and basically, since I've found out I can gift fics I have found myself unable not to exploit that power. Feel free to skip this in any case, I know it is rather heavy, so please don't feel obligated to read it <3
