day five day five day five
the unquiet dead
circa 1869
niiiiiine finally
you look beautiful...for a human
god what a bastard i missed you
rose is so stunning and i love her
her being the first out of the tardis, her chewing out the undertaker guy, (and 9′s massive grin), her protectiveness of gwen
the handholding when they thought they were about to die???
i forgot how absolutely *chef’s kiss* some of these eps are
god dickens’ sheer joy at figuring out there’s more to the world than he knows
again this show goes everywhere but still remains so thematically stable!!!
god it’s gonna be another century until i get to another 9 episode but he has so few i guess they’re just like a special treat every now and then
a town called mercy
circa 1870
okay yeah this is what i remember the 11/amy/rory stuff calmed down
ben??? browder???
okay but 11′s anger when he found out what jex did!
‘how many people died screaming on that operating table’
this all hits so differently now!
but again right on theme!
i don’t want too dark 13 but if she could snap just a little further and show this rage at what was done to her then i would !!!!
god and when jex tries to turn the tables on the doc just S N A P S
the weird thing is i don’t know if the doc getting to the point where he pulls a gun on jex would have made sense before the timeless child reveal
i mean smith totally sells it but it is very extreme
but now it makes so much sense!!! like the doc’s met plenty of war criminals but this one in particular gets to them
GAWD
i really enjoyed this ep
i feel like i’m such a liar i’m like ‘i really just love when my show is silly and campy and delightful!!’
but deep down whenever the doc is pushed to extremes i’m suddenly that much more invested
tooth and claw
circa 1871
god i love the early seasons they’re having so fun
roooose
there’s so much physical contact between her and 10
slide 2 in my Let 13 Have a Girlfriend powerpoint
i mean another classic i don’t have a ton to say about this
empress of mars
circa 1881
except we’re on mars yessss
i love that 12 was taking space nerd bill on a field trip to NASA
god their movie banter culminating in...frozen!
i am a woman of simple tastes
actually a really interesting episode bc peace is made by these two warrior speaking the same language finally which although the doc understands is not something that they necessarily approve of...like peace the doc’s way is tried and doesn’t work...
i love bill’s braid too...an underrated look
god the tension in that missy scene in the end
these two were really where i started shipping this bc the yearning
i’ll probably watch more tonight but i’ll take a break and post this now
