sometimes being a fan of something means not wanting them to make any more of it

Series: Part 2 of in some other life we’re standing side by side and laughing that in some other life we’re apart 

Summary:

River can feel time breaking around them, like a physical object stuck in their gravitational orbit. They’re the epicentre of collapse. And a part of her buckles, fracturing under the weight of what’s been taken from her. “Time is not your plaything, Doctor.” —- In a universe where River Song has never existed, erased from time so that Melody Pond can live, who’s left to pull the Doctor back from godhood?

Chapter Summary:

Her hand flies, palm colliding wetly with his cheek, the sound almost as loud as the storm around them.  "Your River?" she hisses, voice barely heard across the wind. "The one you erased in cold blood?"  "Because she deserved better than me!"

Last chapter! (not including the epilogue that will destroy you all next Friday!) Please enjoy the end of this insane journey we've been on. It's been great fun for me and Bree.

Hannah Waddingham as Judith Burton in Ride or Die, Season 1 Episode 1. THE black dress

[thundergrace]

Ride or Die is truly for the sapphics because they have Hannah doing all of this deliberately sexy stuff in a show not at all aimed at men that most men will not watch lol

My name is Whiptail, and I kill people for a living.

[magsintherain]

watched one episode of ride or die and I am immediately in love. wdym we have one hot woman who strides down the stairs like she owns the place and can probably kill someone in a hundred different ways, and another equally hot equally badass woman who is introduced by deftly plying a security guard with tea to get an edge in an antiques show and is masterful at political maneuvering, and they’ve known each other for 20 years and have delightful chemistry and say I love you in a way that is maybe not platonic nor romantic but a secret third thing. icons.

and I’ll dream each night of some version of you (that I might not have, but I did not lose)

This fic has got me on a chokehold 😭

A detail that would probably go unnoticed, I recoloured the Doctor's jacket to be darker for the clips with Mels and River to show his growing darkness.

Lowkey wanted to make it longer and add the Doctor finding out the Ponds died but the music wasn't long enough

[dominosecho]

they’re filler episodes TO YOU. to me they’re little windows through which i watch my favorite characters make the stupidest decisions imaginable

[kinsey3furry300]

River Song graffi-ing ancient monuments to get the Doctor's attention and cosplaying as Cleopatra and doing just all the crime is far funnier when you remember she's an archaeology professor. Academics really do just stop giving a shit once they get tenure, huh?
