“You’re the woman who married me.”
#and from the far left you hear the haters rise: #’THEY’RE NOT EVEN MARRIED’#’SHE’S A MARY SUE’ #’THE DOCTOR DOESN’T LOVE HER’ #but from the river of their salty tears i rise with this gif set displayed proudly in my hands #’here. go forth and sail de nile for your logic is no longer welcome here.’ #the end.
This is gorgeous work. I especially love the gold speckling inside the dress.

THIS ABOUT PAGE I AM SCREAMING
Dear Mum,
I’m so sorry I couldn’t make it in time for Christmas. I miss you both so much.
Thing is, I got a little caught up in 18th century Italy. We met Giacomo Casanova. Yes, the one! We helped him escape prison. He didn’t really belong there anyway. Watching him and the Doctor interact was… interesting. Somehow they ended up betting on which of them could get Voltaire to reveal his real name. The Doctor lost. Now he owes him a chicken.
Oh, and you’ll never believe what I saw last week! Vogue is celebrating its 400th anniversary with an exhibit that includes hundreds of photos. And surprise, surprise, there you were! You looked so beautiful. You always do. You still haven’t told me why you quit that job.
How’s dad? Hug him for me, will you? Is he still considering getting a proper medical degree? Not that I don’t believe he could, but I don’t think he fits the job. He’s a nurturer, not a fixer.
I promise I’ll come visit soon. I’m just about to embark on a quick expedition to a library that occupies a whole planet. Can you imagine that? A planet sized library? I can barely picture it. It’s an archeologist’s playground, is what it is. Well, anyway, I swear I’ll come by after this. Just in time for your birthday, I think.
With love, always,
Melody
‘Doctor Who’ AU meme: ‘You’re not The Doctor, John. It’s just a story in your head.’
- Where are we going?
- To see your new patient.
- My new who? Robert, you know that I don’t deal with patients now. My duties are administrative.
- Not anymore. Anyway: John Smith, 29 years old. He got his PhD when he was 21. In Astrophysics, whatever that is. IQ over 155. Two years ago he was in a car accident. He was the only one who made it, two of his friends died. He left hospital after a month, seemed to be coping just fine. 3 weeks later he went missing, they found him after a few days, he was sitting inan old police phone box. He kept talking about his dead friends. He believes that the girl - he calls her Rose - is trapped in some kind of a parallel universe. As for his other friend, Jack… He died, but then was brought to life and now he’s immortal.
- But if it’s trauma after the accident then why is he here?
- It’s not just that. He seems to… He created another world in his head. He says that he’s a… time lord, the last of the time lords. He claims he can travel in time and space, that he can change his face and body. So far no one can help him. They kept on sending him from one psychiatric hospital to another. Listen, I think you… we can help him.

- Good morning, Mr. Smith. My name is-
- Doctor River Song. Oh you bad bad girl. What trouble have you got for me this time? Should we sync diaries? Where are we?
- I’m sorry, you must have confused me. I’m doctor Melody Pond. I’ll try to help you.

- Oh, you’re waking up. You gave us quite a fright! You had an allergic reaction to the new medicine.
- You saved me.
- Yes, we believe that anaphylaxis was caused by-
- You gave me all your regenerations.
- Excuse me?
- You only just met me and you decided to save my life. You sacrificed yourself for me and… Martha did that too. She saved my life back there, on the moon. Oh, she was brilliant.
- Martha?
- Martha Jones. She was my companion. Brilliant girl, she helped me so much. Did you know that she-
- I’m sorry, John. Martha Jones was your doctor, she took care of you after the accident. You remember the accident, right?
- What? No, that’s not true! She was my friend. She saved the Earth and-
- Hush, it’s okay. Calm down, please. You’re probably still tired after what happened today. Try to rest now.

- Where is Amelia?
- Who?
- Amelia Pond. The little Scottish girl. I promised her I’ll be back, I said 5 minutes! I need to go to her!
- John, there’s no Amelia Pond in here.
- Are you her family? Do you know where she is now?
- No, but I am sure that if you calm down, we can figure where she is.
- I know where she is! She’s in Leadworth, at least that’s where I left her.
- John, you grew up in Leadworth. Maybe she was your childhood friend?
Why would you do that? Make me watch?
So that you know this is inevitable. And you are forgiven. Always and completely forgiven.
The Only Water in the Forest and The Oncoming Storm
River Song and The Doctor
I have always drawn attention these images, where River and The Doctor are turning their backs, as if Moffat would have done it on purpose to imply from the outset that River is his equal, that she is not only a companion, that she’s his wife and she is as powerful and valient as him. I wonder if anyone else has noticed the similarity in them and have felt the same feeling.
People have really fallen in love with New Gallifreyan.
