Who is your favourite companion?

TOURNAMENT MASTERPOST

Propaganda

Adric

He saved the world! And the Doctor! He sacrificed his life to save them, which really shows his development as a character from his first appearance. He loves dogs, also, and sends messages in a bottle out the TARDIS for K9 to receive which I think is adorable.

Nyssa

the nuwho Doctor before the Doctor was. the last of her kind. Devoted to healing. Secretly ruthless. Eternally kind and selfless, even when it meant sacrificing her own freedom.

Tegan Jovanka

oh Tegan... where do I even begin? Saw infinite horrors in her time on board the tardis. quick witted, acerbic, always ready to give the Doctor and the villains and everyone else a piece of her mind. Bold and brash and brave and impulsive. Wears her heart on her sleeve at all times. NEVER gets hardened to good people dying, no matter how much it happens. Always cares just as much forever. Kind to everyone, deeply empathetic -- while being brash and snarky. gay af. wears heels sharp enough to kill a man all the time despite the Everything (this is because she's autistic and more comfortable walking on her toes, i will say this to my dying day.) the only human in a tardis full of aliens. strong as hell, smart as hell, soft inside. will plunge headlong into danger to save ANYONE, whether she knows or even likes them at all.

Vislor Turlough

The worst assassin in the entire universe who honestly has some of the funniest lines in the Fifth Doctor's era. Just a Strange Guy™️. (@gothicacetheatrekid )

he's a self-professed selfish coward of COURSE he's the kindest and bravest person you'll ever meet (remember that time he went back alone to face off the creatures that literally had him CATATONIC with ancestral trauma based fear half an hour earlier, giving away his only good luck charm as he went?! And people still think he's a selfish coward! Please! it's a mask!!!) stunning character development snark absolutely off the charts. you like Donna Noble? try Vislor Turlough! also the real first unambiguous redhead companion total freak. he once paused while SCUTTLING (only word for it) away from monsters for his life in order to rebutton his jacket, the jacket that is the school uniform from a school he utterly and openly HATED, which for some incomprehensible reason is the only thing he wears. There's nobody else in the universe like Vislor Turlough

There are so many angles I could take with this. He's a bitchy gay alien and the least deadly assassin. He is a meme. Also he's the first Fifth Doctor companion to get a sort of happy ending. In the constant tragedy of Five's era, he finds his brother and makes it home safe. He is a rare moment of hope in a very grim, cynical era of the show, while also being the last person you'd expect to be a moment of hope. (@cringecompanionapologist )

The fifth doctor is standing on a chair reaching up to change a light bulb on the ceiling, while the tenth doctor watches with his hands in his pockets. The caption of the post is by Susan Foreman and reads "How many Doctors does it take to change a light bulb? #sunday" and the post is liked by Donna Noble. End Image Description.]

based on that one picture. Original below the cut

I spent far too long doing this.

[heycupcake]

I would have been- not saying normal, but at least stable, about this show weren't it for Tegan and stupid Resurrection of the stupid Daleks

Exhibit A ("NO"):

Exhibit B ("But murder?"):

The Doctor resonates with Tegan's dissent, he absolutely dreads what he has to do. And Tegan sees it, she knows how big of a sacrifice it is for him. She shares it even, when she resolves to get the Movellan virus to finish the job, despite the experiences from Warriors of the Deep. She'll later watch the Daleks slowly succumb, thanks to her, and find it horrible, despite them being the murderous monsters that they are.

Exhibit C ("Look Tegan like Adric"):

He can't even say goodbye, he says absolutely nothing else, takes a last look and heads off.

this post has been sitting in my drafts for a while, it's incomplete but i'm not adding more whump to the fire

“I’ve been searching for a particular word that applies to her, and I think at last I’ve found it. Loopy. Yes, loopy. Lis was gloriously loopy, and I loved her all the more for it. She lived in a constant blizzard of disasters, through which she would glide like a late-night Lucille Ball. I was with her once at a Radio Times party, when she spotted John Simm across the crowded room. She was utterly determined to talk to him, so she headed straight for him. And I mean literally, in a straight line. Leaving devastation in her wake! Three waiters, the sound system and a TV chef have never worked since. Jane Tranter ended up in the Ladies’, sponging the blood off Lis’ leg - I’m not kidding! And I swear, I don’t think Lis even noticed. She just kept saying dreamily how lovely John was and what a nice night she’d had. She lived her life like that. I’d visit her Cardiff flat, and she’d always be in her dressing gown. Not because she was leisurely, but because something had just exploded. We would wonder, together, how hair dye could possibly have reached the ceiling. I once phoned her and her first words were, “I’m covered in glass because the bus just shattered and they threw me off.” I have no idea what that meant, I’d stopped asking by then!”

This makes me laugh so hard, but want to cry at the same time.
