apple_pathways: Whatever floats your boat! (Amy/Rory - Kissing it Better)
[personal profile] apple_pathways
'cause a Doctor Who party don't stop. (It just takes a f*ing hiatus after seven episodes for NO GOOD REASON. :P)

So, I want to hang out on the internets and flail about the mid-series finale of Doctor Who, but social obligations dictate I must leave the house. (Why must people inconveniently schedule their grad school celebration parties on the days of epic Who episodes???)



*OMG, River is Amy and Rory's BABY! ...on second thought, that theory's been around forever. I'm glad that's the one they went with, but still: DAMN YOU Who fans and your ability to correctly predict major plot twists!

*Rory and Amy's reunion! ♥ ♥ ♥ "I was going to be cool." Oh, Rory darling: you will never be cool, and that's why we love you! (I was going to rewatch this scene over and over and over again, but now I'm afraid the whole thing will be slightly spoiled knowing that cuddling a Flesh!baby. *shakes fist* DAMN YOU gooey Flesh!baby!

*Moffat: PLEASE stop hitting us over the head with your Big Important Points. We are not idiots. You had River say "He'll rise higher than he ever has." We heard it! We know what it means! We do NOT need a character to come out and say THE SAME EXACT THING again in order to 'get it'. WE GOT IT! Now: NO MORE ANVILS, please, our heads are rather tender! (And while I have your attention: the name of the episode is allowed to be spoken out loud ONCE per episode! No exceptions!)

*Centurion!Rory! And Amy as a mum is SO CUTE...I cried. (Fortunately, this time I was alone, and no one came upstairs all concerned to see what was wrong with me.)

Ok, I gotta get going now! But here's some questions I have:
*How did Eyepatch Lady get away from Rory?
*Where did the Doctor go at the end?
*Was that whole scene where they had the Doctor pinpoint exactly when the Pondling was conceived really necessary? (It was cute, but just a little long!)
*When can we expect the spin-off series with the Victorian Silurian Lady Detective and her lesbian lover sidekick to air?

Ok, I gotta go: please leave me some squee and/or griping and/or thinky thoughts! I will be spending the evening with people who've never even heard of Doctor Who, and it's inevitable that I am going to get a bit tipsy, forget this fact, and then spend a good 20 minutes trying to explain the show to people who COULD NOT CARE LESS and/or are just humoring me.

Go! :P

A lot of people disliked River for that reason: they felt she was too smug, too knowing, and far too close to the Doctor without 'earning' it. While I can definitely see where everyone was coming from, there was just something I found inherently likeable about the character that made me overlook all that. (Thought I've said it before and I'll say it again: thank God Moff has given the catchphrases a rest! The poor, poor woman has been given some pretty damn stupid and annoying things to say over the course of her run.)

Giddy adorable Eleven could sell me crap on a stick! His childish enthusiasm just makes everything Ok! Though: it is hard to imagine a childlike Eleven in any sort of adult relationship, especially with River Song. I mean, for God's sake: the poor man couldn't even work out that the Ponds just might have had sex on the TARDIS on their wedding night! But he does seem to enjoy flirting with her. We'll just assume it all works out somehow!

Now I have to go hide under a rock, as I realize that I've written both Amy/River femslash (of a PGish, innuendo-only variety) and River/Rory (full on sex). *slaps forehead* This is what happens when you 'ship irresponsibly!
