the thirteenth doctor is truly the natural successor to the last four doctors - her personality makes complete sense when you think about it… we started with nine, fresh out of the time war, bruised and brooding, scarred and sad, who let rose tyler into his life and was changed for the better. the tenth doctor was born out of his love for rose - ten took rose by the hand and ran even faster and even further and fell in love with her. but being the doctor this couldn’t last forever, and after losing so many people his joy devolved in righteous anger and fevered power. the time lord victorious. in the end ten realised this can’t ever be a reality, having dire consequences for the universe (not a warrior. a doctor.). ten evolved into eleven and channelled what remained of his childish glee, but eleven developed an ego that took the universe and made it fear and love him equally. he became legendary, a hero, even. eleven went to the very limit of what the doctor could be, and then let go. then twelve’s hour came and now the doctor did not even know who he was supposed to be any more. a good man? yes, of course he was. but twelve’s doubt after everything he had already been through abated when he saw the universe through clara oswald’s eyes, and it was beautiful. bill potts came along and reminded the doctor of all he needed to be: just a bloke, passing through, fixing stuff. laughing hard, running fast, and acting with kindness always. so who should come next but the absolute epitome of the lessons that each doctor learned before her: thirteen. just a traveller, fixing things, helping people, and loving the universe in its entirety. at peace with herself finally. she knows exactly who she is. she’s the Doctor.
