one of my favorite types of media to experience is stuff that i know in another lifetime i would have been absolutely obsessed with as a kid/teen. going through something as an adult and being like yeah that was pretty good. however if this had made its way to me when i was 12 years old it would have fundamentally altered me and i hope it's fundamentally altering some other 12 year old out there right now. that's the good stuff.

been thinking a lot about sepideh's recent interview and how she says that baran's decision to tell robby about her condition is her way of saying "i understand you. i understand that we're cut from the same cloth; so here is my olive branch of understanding. i want you to love and accept me for who i am - so here is the rawest, most fragile part of me", and how robby just throws all of her vulnerability right back in her face and shatters all and any hope baran has of ever "fitting in" at the ed with him in charge,,, :') LIKE. sepideh states it herself!! baran sees this as a "heroic gesture" because she's sacrificing how robby had seen her then, for him to see her in a different light. she's actively, desperately hoping that he sees her as just another person, and not somebody he is conditioned to hold dislike against. she is willing to ruin herself just so that he would look at her with more than just malice in his eyes, and yet it doesn't work out for her in the end. fuck dr. michael robinavitch. we're riding for baran al-hashimi at dawn holy shit 😭😭😭

it's the fact that brown women deserve to be love interests, even if it's just in fanon... it's the fact that both actors themselves found merit in the relationship and purposely portrayed it with a hint of flirtation for funsies and to add an extra layer for fans to pick up on in canon if they wanted... it's the fact that for once, a white male character was narratively positioned to prop up a female character of color instead of the perpetually overused vice-versa situation... it's the fact that Mohan absolutely stood on her own as an inspirational and compelling character with a backstory and motivations just as engaging, if not more so, than Abbot's... it's the fact that shipping in and of itself is first and foremost a shits n giggles activity that is nevertheless undoubtedly negatively impacted no matter how you slice it when a character is removed from the story...

Idk man, this is just such a loss in every conceivable category. No character should ever be reduced to a ship they're associated with, but that is not what is happening here. Fans are just upset about all the potential and all the fun we're losing with this decision, too. It was a unique and appreciated dynamic both within and outside the confines of canon.

(I'm genuinely so grateful and still excited for fans keeping things alive like we always do. Cuz we always do and always will. But still. STILL.)

"only 90s kids remember-" wrong, if you're poor and/or rural enough, old tech and fashion doesn't just disappear when it stops being trendy. We had dial-up until 2012

River song is the best executed story arc in all of fiction (at least all that I’ve seen) and it’s not even close

Her first appearance is her death, both the audience and the doctor don’t know anything about her, but she already knows everything about him. Imagine a woman greets you with a kiss and says she’s your wife but you’ve never seen her before.

When she dies, sure it’s sad because a character we’ve spent two hours getting to know just died, but it’s not any sadder than that.

But then she turns up later. And again. And again. We learn to fall in love with the character, just like the doctor, but always with the nagging thought that any day could be the day when she goes to the library, and meets her end. We learn how interconnected her and the doctor are, we watch them get married, and eventually we see her one last time in a glorious send off to the character, the last time she saw the doctor before going to the library.

But that’s not where the story ends.

On a rewatch, you get the silence in the library, and you see this character that you’ve grown to love over whole doctor’s lifespans, but the doctor doesn’t recognise you. Now, you’re in river’s shoes. You understand all the references she makes, but the doctor is just blank. And when she sacrifices herself, you realise that the last time she saw the doctor was exactly what you saw in the last river episode. It’s so flawlessly executed over a whole decade, and I love her to pieces.

And when Samira does ask Jack for a letter of rec and he says he already has one drafted just in case she asked? When she looks confused because why does he already have one? When he tells her that she’s the most competent doctor and she belongs there? When he tells her she should be staying in the ED? When he lets it slip that he wants her to stay in the Pitt specifically? When she asks why and he can’t even look at her and avoids the question? And he tells her Robby’s stupid and doesn’t know shit? What then guys? What then??? Have we considered this? Hmm??

What really makes this for me is that OP could have phoned it in on the chorus and just repeated the same fics, but no. They found a unique one every time. Class act.
