Requisite post-Doctor Who emotive reaction entry

[zolac_no_miko]

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!

So.

• Before Moffat started on his run of Doctor Who, was anyone expecting his Who to be gayer than RTD's? I wasn't. I AM PLEASANTLY SURPRISED.

• SO YES RIVER SONG well holy shit this explains a lot of things about her doesn't it?

• THE ONLY WATER IN THE FOREST IS THE RIIIIIIVEEEEERRRRRR~!!

• I'm told that there were many many Amy/River slashers. HAHAHA AWKWARD~! XDDDD

• HOW LONG HAS MOFFAT BEEN PLANNING THIS?

• So it looks like River probably will be killing the Doctor after all, yeah? I thought perhaps the guy she killed was not going to be the Doctor because IT'S JUST SO OBVIOUS I thought it had to be a red herring, but... well, yeah, it's really looking like River now. ...HEY evilhippo WELL DONE, you got that part sort of correct a little bit! XDDDDD

• ROOOOOOOORRRRRYYYYYYYYY omg if I thought I could get away with it without being brutally murdered by your wife THE NAUGHTY NAUGHTY THINGS I WOULD DO TO YOU. UNF.

In other news I was watching Who with Mom last night (we've started season five! :D) and it occurred to me that the Doctor Who theme and the X-Files theme could be mixed together quite nicely. Just think about it: BA-DA-BA-BUMP BA-DA-BA-BUMP BA-DA-BA-BUMP BA-DA-BA-BUMP, do-do-do-do-do-dooooo~!

PACK THE CASES, JENNY, WE'RE GOING TO NEED THE SWORDS.

Why don't they have a spinoff right now.

[ssw-loved.livejournal.com]

SPIN-OFF IS SO NEEDED OF THOSE TWO.

Also, what even is air right now. I thought I was going to have a heart attack, and I'm glad I didn't. RIVER RIVER RIVER. THE ONLY WATER. IN THE FOREST. IS THE RIVER.

I'm kind of delighted that I wasn't right about anything. (Also, this means The Impossible Astronaut involves a lot of River crossing her own timestream... I wonder if that's what made the astronaut so impossible? Also also, I am really loving the idea of Rory being all "No daughter of mine is going to make moony-eyes like that at the Doctor! He's trouble!" in my imaginary 1960s AU, so he's in the glasses and looking stern and everything.

Uhm, also, the name of the next episode? The writers totally aren't taking this seriously anymore, are they? (I love it.)

That episode was so excellent on many levels.

I'm liking how this is all hanging together. I still definitely want the doctors daughter to come back, but I'm definitely liking this whole time mess story for River.

But now I have to wait till autumn. :( At least the new season of Torchwood starts in about a month. Should be interesting to see what happens with that.

I could certainly get behind that spinoff idea.

I agree with EVERYBODY that they need a spinoff. So very much. I mean, swords and interspecies romance and lesbians! That's like Torchwood, but better because there are swords and it takes place in the past!

I feel sorry for the Amy/River 'shippers. There were also Rory/River fans. (I was not one of them, but as part of a fairly long and fairly stupid fic-plot I was going to write it, and now ... I really can't. XD Oh well!)

I still think River could've been referring to her father when she said she was going to to kill the best man she'd ever known. (Which would mean she's going to kill Rory, which might explain why she was a bit WTF when he showed up to ask her to come to Demons Run ...) Also, wasn't that why she ended up in the Stormcage? If yes, why would they send a little girl to a 51st Century (?) prison for killing a guy on Earth in the 60's? Or maybe I'm making that thing about Stormcage up. I can't even keep track any more ...

Of course, none of that means that she's not going to kill the Doctor as well ...

Rory is my favourite. I keep telling people this, and usually I get blank looks and the question, "Why?" It's nice to know that people on the internet agree that he's EPIC and AWESOME and UNF. *grabby hands*

SO I HAVE NOW SEEN IT, CAN I JOIN IN THE FUN??

First of all, let me get this off my chest -- STEVEN MOFFAT I HEART YOU LIKE A VERY SHINY THING. <333333333333333333333333

NOW.

1. What is up with the Doctor's telepathy skills, I'd like to ask??? He picks up on dying girl's 'we ran together' thing, he keeps saying Time Lords are telepathic, BUT he didn't pick up on eyepatch woman's evil plan?? Show, you are being highly inconsistent. :/ 'I speak 'baby'' indeed.

2. If River was the girl in the spacesuit, stands to reason she will have already lived through that, yes? Therefore she would know all about the Doctor's death, and her being the little girl, yes? I mean, being timey-wimey's all well and good, but she wouldn't have forgotten that--would she?? I still maintain it has something to do with Canton. Way to introduce a random massively awesome character in a major plot development two-parter and throw him aside right after, if not.

3. WHY THE BLOODY HELL DOES NO ONE SHOOT EYEPATCH WOMAN??? AND WHO THE BLEEDING FUCK IS SHE REALLY??? Because dying girl could well have shot her and made away with the baby, real or no.

4. Even if River is part- or whole-timelord, how can she read and write High Gallifreyan? Is she also telepathic? Does the TARDIS download the knowledge into her head??

5. Why introduce the headless monks and then do nothing with them? I mean, that knowledge, remove someone's head and give them Dark Side powers -- surely they should be more than random villains?

6. Is it significant that the Doctor keeps dodging the question about his kids? Because he had some, right? Yes? We know that, no? And they were trapped in the time war vortex along with the rest? Or died? This may be me making shit up, but I distinctly remember something along those lines around the time of the Master.

IDEK. THIS EPISODE HAS FILLED ME WITH RANDOM QUESTIONS. Not to mention that now I shall have to rewatch all River episodes to see the connections. And Season 5 again. And the last 7 episodes again. MOFF, I LOVE YOU, BUT YOU MAKE MY HEAD HURT.

ALSO, RORY IS THE MOST AWESOMESAUCE OF THE LOT OF THEM. <333 AND I LOVED HIM WITH THE BABY, SO DAMN MUCH.
