the doctor stopping mid-run from one of the most dangerous things he has ever encountered because "I want to see it" is the most doctor thing ever

[sphxxshthealien]

wait. that’s what Midnight was about.

it made everyone turn their backs on each other.

and that’s what made it dangerous.

but now that’s literal. you turn your back on someone and you kill them. you go behind someone’s back and it kills you.

because that’s what it learnt the first time it met the Doctor. the first time it met any other life. it learnt how they turn on each other, how it can gain power by making monsters out of people.

so this is what it became. because of what they did to each other.

oh this was diabolical

likely thing to be in a modern doctor who episode

nooooo but you don’t understand!!! the doctor makes belinda a false promise to keep her safe despite betraying his promise to take her home at every turn because he is obsessed with the mystery surrounding her, belinda succumbs to his charm both as a protective mechanism because he is her one hope of getting home but also because she is compelled by the adventure, the outfits, the realisation that the doctor helps. all this to say……..toxic by britney spears is the perfect song choice for belinda and the doctor’s dynamic

RTD does like episode about drilling big fucking holes in the ground to unleash an evil entity.
