#demons run

[hyperfocusmadness]

I'm forcing my friend to watch doctor who and we're finally on the demon's run episode AND THIS FUCKING BITCH GUESSED THE FUCKING RIVER SONG REVEAL AND NOW I HAVE TO PRETEND SHE'S NOT SPOT ON AND I FUCKING HATE HER

[spoilerssweetie13]

My headcanon is that River/Melody is not the baby Amy was pregnant with. Hear me out. Why did Madame Kovarian kidnap Amy while she was pregnant and not just take the baby after it was born?

My best guess is that it was to monitor whether the baby was developing like a Time Lord: two hearts, an ectospleen, etc. But the true test was whether it could regenerate. So she started small, hurting the fetus to see if it could heal itself, and it did.

Eventually, "to know with absolute certainty," she killed the baby just to see if it would regenerate. It did, and regenerated into the River/Melody we know.

This is what I mean when I say River/Melody is not the baby Amy was pregnant with, not to begin with. That one died before it was even born.

Is it dark and morbid? Yes. But Demons' Run was a horror story. We don't really know what happened during Amy’s time there, and knowing Madame Kovarian, I fully believe this could’ve happened.

Andrews hurries through the streets of Hornchurch, hoping to catch a sight of Julian. He notices people running out of a building, a Greggs.

He sighs, before increasing his pace towards the bakery, pushing his way through the crowd. He feels something beneath his boot as he steps through the door, and the surrounding air changes to something more sinister.

He sees Julian first, and steps in front of him. Begruvia smiles widely.

Ah, Andrews, we finally meet again.

Hey! What are you doing, Father? -🚗

Julian pauses, his protests dying as he tilts his head to the side. There is noticeable shift in the air, and his eyes widen in realization.

Father Andrews, watch out! The salt! -🚗

Tell me you're supposed to be writing but absolutely aren't without telling me you're supposed to be writing but absolutely aren't. 😌✨

We all know the poem 'When A Good Man Goes To War' from the Eleventh Doctor's run, right?

The one that goes like this:

Demons run when a good man goes to war,

Night will fall and drown the sun,

When a good man goes to war.

Friendship dies, and true love lies,

Night will fall and the dark will rise,

When a good man goes to war.

Demons run, but count the cost;

The battle's won, but the child is lost.

I was thinking about it this afternoon and what if the 'good man' refers to Rory going to war for his wife, and the demons are the Doctor?????

Cause after the battle of Demons Run, the Doctor immediately went searching for Melody.

He was RUNNING around the universe looking for her.

And I know some people are gonna be like "but the Doctor is a good man!" and "*insert some other defense here*"

BUT

You forget that in the same episodes, the Doctor literally says:

"Good men don't need rules. Today is not the day to find out why I have so many."

He himself doesn't believe he is a good man. He has killed a shit ton of people AND is dangerous enough to get locked up in the Pandorica sooooo

HURRAY! BYE BYEEEE!!!

Demons run when a good man goes to war…

“Oh, stop being brave! I can’t stand brave people!”

“I don’t know who she was but she was very brave.” “They’re always brave.”
