#12th doctor x river song

[heyitsspaceace]

12 and river have such a lovely dynamic and i want to know all about the 24 years they got together, they mean the world to me

[fanficsiwillneverwrite]

This fic is loosely based on this post I made about the 12th doctor’s grumpy man arc in Capaldi’s first season and how I wished the story would have played out

River + The Doctor + text posts pt. 13/?

“When you love the Doctor, it's like loving the stars themselves. You don't expect a sunset to admire you back. And if I happen to find myself in danger, let me tell you, the Doctor is not stupid enough, or sentimental enough, and he is certainly not in love enough to find himself standing in it with me!” -River Song (Doctor Who: The Husbands of River Song)

Inspired by this post by @ibenology

My rambling about this below 😎👍

These three pairings actually hurt me in how similar they are, not to mention how River’s quote here could apply to both Hob and Mobius as well as of course- herself. The three of them(River, Hob, and Mobius) all fall for this seemingly timeless ethereal being; the sunset that they don’t expect to admire them back.

But the quote I referenced above is shortly followed by The Doctor revealing that he’s been next to River this whole time, and that can kind of tie into both Morpheus and Loki in how they admire their partner back in their own repressed way. River, Hob, and Mobius are all under this assumption that there’s no way that their affection will be reciprocated, but they don’t realize that The Doctor, Morpheus, and Loki have been by their side through it all and it just- UGH. THE PARALLELS BREAK ME.

Anyways, if you can’t tell I’m not used to drawing real people but I did my best to make them look like the actual actors while somewhat retaining my art style 💀

But can you imagine the chaos that would have ensued if River has met Missy and Clara???

I can’t even begin to comprehend the interactions they would have

All three of them in a room together? And 12 walks in and all three look t him and he just KNOWS he’s fucked

River already stole his TARDIS key so he can’t just run away from them

[expectiations]

Bill: Doctor, where’d you get that bruise? the Doctor: *flashback to walking into a pole while looking at his picture of River* the Doctor: i'm in a gang, Bill

see i love my polyamorous dumbasses but no doctor ship will EVER come close to them. yes, i understand that the doctor had feelings for clara, rogue and missy BUT you will never have me shipping any other mfs.

they will always be my endgame!!!

And after the longest night the dawn will come

And again two loners will disappear in the crowd

One way ticket and they won't meet again

And she will never be able to love anyone again.

i want everyone to remember that the doctor canonically sulked lived with otters for a month because he and river had a big fight

Rewatched the Husbands Of River Song and my sister goes “I bet that was twenty four years of the weirdest sex of either of their lives…”

She’s probably right.

I hate to be a hater but the doctor making out with the rouge guy broke my little thoschei and Riverdoctor heart what the fuck was that, is the doctor really moving on from his WIFE? It's great to have LGBTQ representation but also the fact they did it during pride month and not another month feels like pandering, all these years they could have done it any other time, it's been known the doctor doesn't care about gender and is genderless, why not like her kiss Yaz? Or kiss River as 13? Or have two female doctor and master forms interact? Or let tensimm kiss, they looked like they were about to on SEVERAL occasions. There is nothing wrong with Rouge as a character but I think it was out of character for 15 to disregard his wife like that, he can move on, but just like that??? Also 12 kissed missy twice, why was the only time they kissed in a heterosexual context?

Every so often I'll just randomly remember how tragic the river song timeline is and start sobbing with no warning.

this is one of those times.
