Life is short, right? We both know that. Well, what if you’re my chance? What if you are the thing that’s actually going to make me happiest?

DOCTOR WHO (2005-) — Turn Left | 4.11

I can't believe I'm seeing people calling this season the definition of "cosmic" when we have not only had ZERO Malex interaction in 5 episodes but also had to put up with

A) Alex being in danger and reaching out to his "cosmic" boyfriend's ex, instead of reaching out to his boyfriend directly AND the "clues" all being things the audience knew nothing about until they were said in the episode, making them carry zero weight

B) Michael not showing one single iota of worry that his boyfriend hasn't called to check in in DAYS. Not a "made it to the hotel finally" text, not a "just called to say goodnight" call, not a "me after sleeping in the car last night" pic of a hunched old man, not a "found my 5th balloon! I can't wait to get home to you, I miss my 👽" text, NOTHING.

If I hear one more person try to justify this shoody writing that paints Michael in a way we KNOW isn't right by saying "it's only been a few days, he said he'd be out of range, Michael had no reason to worry", I'm gonna scream.

Spoiler alert, even aside from all those reasons being dumb, you don't need a reason to worry. Worry just HAPPENS. And for someone with abandonment issues like Michael we should be seeing him worry! Even if he thinks maybe he's overreacting so he doesn't tell anyone else he's worried, WE as the audience should be seeing his worry because that's what you do when you love someone. You worry about them.

One day, whether you are 14, 28 or 65, you will stumble upon someone who will start a fire in you that cannot die. However, the saddest, most awful truth you will ever come to find - is they are not always with whom we spend our lives.

REALITY:

genuine question, what on earth did Max mean by "I need your head and your heart here, be the thing that pulls alex back" like my dude???? do you mean mentally pull him back? because if so, what makes you think that alex can be "pulled" back?

how do you know he's not hurt and that's why he's asking for help? why did they just assume that alex can pull himself back, my man sent you messages to come find him ??? don't you think he would have- idk - pulled himself back by now if he could? did I miss something or am I just stupid?
