TOP TENMARTHA MOMENTS (ACCORDING TO TUMBLR) ➞ The Doctor comes back for Martha in 3.01 Smith and Jones

[the-evil-skull]

Tbh I much prefer the tenmartha crowd over the casual "FUCK the doctor Martha deserved better :(" people because the tenmartha people are more willing to examine martha and her arc beyond just saying "her run sucked" yeah it did. We know. Let's talk about her insane savior complex

[crookedfivefingers]

@the-evil-skull I loved your tags as well. REAL

Also want to point to this post. Because I genuinely believe Ten and Martha were a great duo—they just hid so much of their greatness elsewhere.

(Hiding a “Ten and Martha aren’t given the credit they deserve for being brilliant” rant beneath a cut)

In the show, we really don’t get to see a lot of them together post-Lazarus experiment—apart from 42 (an episode that feeds into my point). Besides that, we get nearly three months of Martha with John Smith, then a tiny peek of Ten and Martha in 1969 (where they spent weeks living together), and then we get about two days with them in Utopia/The Sound of Drums before they’re apart for an entire year.

… But S3 also got 12+ novels, an animated miniseries, tons of comics, and a MySpace blog—all of which take place post-Lazarus Experiment. There is so, so much we didn’t get to see in the show! It’s delved into pretty heavily in the EU.

The novels in particular spend very little time alluding to Ten’s grief and Martha’s yearning/jealousy—whereas the show makes those things the primary focus. In the books/etc, we just get them being great mates, solving mysteries, suffering traumas, saving each other, hurt/comfort, et cetera. It’s everything the show skimped on during S3. It’s a proper friendship, but with natural complexities. With NUANCE

I know people are pretty heavily dug in on the popular takes, and creating this account has only shown me that I’m in a pretty lonely minority with my opinions of that series/these characters. 😅 But god— I genuinely think The Pirate Loop, Peacemaker, and Martha’s MySpace blog should be required reading for all Nu-Whovians. Completely leveled and rebuilt my opinion of S3 on the whole+made me appreciate Ten and Martha’s relationship more than ever.

There’s so much more to S3 Ten than the grieving and there’s so much more to Martha than the yearning! Martha is perhaps the most badass companion that ever was… The fandom is doing her a disservice by consistently choosing to highlight her victim role over all of her incredible accomplishments 😩 She deserves better than that!

do you know how bad you have to have fucked up as a doctor who showrunner for all of tumblr to agree on something

[leikeliscomet]

He's actually unhinged.

I don't give a single FUCK about hurting the feelings of white Rose Tyler fans. This girl has consistently been used to overshadow Black characters & her fans since 2007 have actively taken part in & enjoyed the antiblackness in her name bc it rewards them. She needs to stay gone.

The first queer Black man to play the Doctor, a generational once in a lifetime casting, representing Black fans especially queer Black fans across the diaspora to be written out like that for his favourite blonde from 2005 is one of the foulest things Russell T Davies has done.
