how easy it is to destroy– and how brave, to be alive
get to know me meme: favorite female characters » Rose Tyler (Doctor Who) ↳ “The first nineteen years of my life, nothing happened. Nothing at all, not ever. And then I met a man called the Doctor. A man who could change his face. He took me away from home in his magical machine. He showed me the whole of time and space. I thought it would never end.”
The lovely @goingtothetardis asked: Rose trying something alien to eat that she doesn’t like. ;) Either fic or art! Please and thanks!!
(I’m in too much of a chaos right now to sit properly and write anything proper, so here’s a tiny doodle <3 Dunno if that’s what you had in mind …)
“… The most delicious thing in the Universe, Rose, and extremely rare, too. My absolute favourite! I would kill for one of them. Regenerate for one of them. I saved one for you, though. A banana apple – a banapple, I call them – for a Rose. There’s just one tree of them in the entirety of creation. A delicacy of delicacies. Ambrosia. Saved one just for you, Rose Tyler! Come on, taste it. Take a bite.”
She does.
“Well? Isn’t it the heavenliest thing your mouth has ever touched?
The only thing that comes to her mind in response is oh fu –
With what must be the most strained smile in the entirety of creation, she gives him a thumbs up.
The happy-Doctor-grin almost makes up for the absolute heresy of a taste in her mouth. Almost.
“Yeah,” she chokes out. “Yeah, heavenly.”
“What if I told you I’m incapable of tolerating my own heart?”

DW Gif Ask Meme | Dream TARDIS Team (asked by allons-ydaleks & greatspacedustbin)
AU Dream Team: Instead of the end of Journey’s End, Rose comes back to the TARDIS with Donna and the Tenth Doctor, and they travel together. Ten decides it’s well worth Donna’s teasing remarks to have Rose back beside him.
She was born to be a devourer of men.
me: watching tv show
me: looks down at phone for 0.002 seconds
me: misses entire plot line of episode, introduction of 2 new characters, 1 main character dies, they are in a different country, at some point someone reproduced and offspring are spoiled and someone got a pet cat
David Tennant as D.I. Alec Hardy in Broadchurch 1.01
her name was Rose
so sick of television revivals and showrunners relying on the nostalgia factor to boost ratings and stay relevant. except for david tennant coming back on doctor who, that's fine and, in fact, encouraged,
If I believe in one thing, just one thing... I believe in her.

I think the thing that bothers me the most when people say things like, “How could the Doctor possibly fall in love with Rose? She was just a regular teenage girl and he was this ancient, amazing alien,” is that that, right there, was the ENTIRE point that RTD was trying to make through their relationship. You have this character, the Doctor, who’s been so many places and lived so long and is obviously brilliant, and you start thinking “yeah, he’s the best, he’s better than everyone else, he should only love/associate with people who are on the same level as him.” And then suddenly you have Rose — a lower-class shop girl with no A-levels — and the Doctor falls in love with her.
Rose breaks apart every elitist ideal, completely shatters the entire concept that some people are better than others because of their social status or profession or education or age, and her relationship with the Doctor shows that it isn’t these things that make people equals. Their story touches on what I’d say is one of the main ideas throughout all of Doctor Who ever, which is that every single human being (or alien) has the potential to do amazing things. That great deeds aren’t saved for the upper classes and the intellectuals. That people are equal because they are people, and if anything were able to make someone “better” than someone else, it wouldn’t be class or age or intellect. It would be the choices people make, how they create themselves. It would be kindness and courage, and sometimes cleverness — not book smarts, not education, just plain old ingenuity — all things which Rose has in multitudes and even rivals the Doctor in at times. You go girl.
The point that Rose and the Doctor’s story makes is that you don’t have to be a certain age or from a certain place or background etc. to be extraordinary and worthy of another, as well as that love has the amazing ability to look past all of those things and see people for who they really are on the inside. I mean, come on, it’s the oldest story in the universe:
the princess who falls in love with the pauper
the lady who falls in love with the farm boy
the wealthy estate owner who falls in love with the woman of modest means
And you only have to look to real life to see that love looks past age too. So of course an ancient, time-traveling alien can fall in love with a young shop girl. Of course a woman with more compassion than the ocean could hold can fall in love with a man who’s killed billions. Because love looks at what matters. It’s really good at that. And if you think otherwise, you’re missing out on the entire message the Doctor has been trying to tell us for the last fifty plus years. And in that case, I’m sorry. I’m so sorry.
