Saw a doctor who version of this

so much (for) stardust (the entire album) is so beautiful and I'm so glad they did that I love that album I'm going to make out with that album

the doctor's next companion is an alien that's played by a hand puppet, except as the series goes on it's more and more obvious that this 'companion' actually is a hand puppet, and the doctor is just very, very lonely

There's something to be said about Heaven Sent/Hell Bent, despite the Doctor overthrowing the Time Lord Council and spending four and a half billion years in the confession dial and him and Clara and Me meeting at the end of universe, therefore technically spanning the longest time span, being fundamentally the smallest in stakes of any of the modern Doctor Who finales. At the end of the day, there is no threat to earth or the galaxy or the universe or reality. It's just about two people and the way that they turn each other inside out and the way that they reflect each other as two sides of the same coin and the way their relationship was always going to end this way- with the flip of the coin, spinning in the air, each trying to override the other, each trying to take control of the story, each haunting each other forever.

It's under my microscope. It's rotating rent free in my head. It's everything good about Moffat's writing- fairytale vibes, wrenching character work, two characters that thematically parallel each other- and none of the bad, because he's not trying to be too clever or fuck with the rules too much, there's a couple of simple concepts played straight to their inevitable conclusions: Clara Oswald needs to die but the Doctor can't let it happen, he wants her to forget but she can't let it happen, so they both will do the most devasting things in the world to stop the other and they both get their way in the end but only in a way that will leave them haunting each other forever.

And it's so fucking good.

Doctor Who text posts: Twelve edition – pt. 9

found footage horror movie where the guy filming is a landlord trying to sell a haunted house, filming the property and frantically trying to quickly pan away from all the obvious ghost activity with less and less success

Gwen’s text on the computer will never not be funny to me. Do you think that was the moment, they decided she had the exact amount of braincells to join the team?

“They use this stuff they find it and use it but theyc an do whart they want, noone;s in charge of thrmdes NO ONE cos they don’t anbsweerr to anyne” <= fav part.

If I had been Ianto I would have erased everything except that section. Just imagine Gwen’s confused face reading that in the morning. If this doesn’t capture the vibe of writing late at night, I don’t know what does.
