We're opening up a rift in the Braccatolian space. Won't see us coming. Kind of scary. Then stop. Once the Empire is established, and there's a new Gallifrey in the heavens, maybe then it stops... the drumming, the never ending drumbeat. Ever since I was a child, I looked into the Vortex — that's when it chose me. The drumming, the call to war. Can't you hear it?

#op tags that i am obsessed with #i always took the *good* as somewhat narcissistic as in even my problems are special #there's a disjoint between a genuine attempt at contact but when the doctor cuts him off #he goes behind the wall again #[after all it's not easy banging your heart against some mad bugger's wall]#[the absence of self-love getting filled by self-adoration]#[there's absolutely an ironic element that the doctor genuinely cares for the master but also sees them as a project to fix #you'd think the discovery drums were real got them to reconsider that maybe the master has an actual outlook #and doesn't just need better hearing aid #and in eot it looks like the message landed! but lo and behold the showrunner changed #arrived with metaphors that sound deep until you think about them #the hearing the music metaphor being a really bad offender]#the passion of our lord and saviour tinker ten ending in satan figure rejecting his mercy #shabby nasty naked little dirtman and his coatless bleeding husband #i can't express what these gifsets mean to me
