i'm dying over that reveal. truly. truly. because on paper, the concept that ruby's mother was just an ordinary person and what made her so special was this belief everyone had feeding into her own mythology, creating something larger than life, is actually pretty cool. and, yeah, from wild blue yonder we know the doctor absolutely handed the power of suggestion over to an unknown entity that made it something tangible.. so it works.

sort of

but like. that 15 year old girl decided to drop her baby off at a church in the middle of the night in the most ostentatious, medieval looking cloak and then proceed to point mencingly at the road sign on the off chance the security camera would pick her up and that would somehow give someone the idea to name her daughter after said road sign??

i'm just saying... if that's the way you handle giving your baby up for adoption then there is absolutely nothing ordinary about you

#doctor who #dw spoilers #ruby sunday #louise miller #empire of death #i'm a bit ehhhh at that whole ending tbh #i thought we'd be getting a bit more mythology #i mean even sutekh wasn't proper mythology he was an osiron not a GOD god y'know #like he got more powerful from the TARDIS but he wasn't a myth come to life #not EXACTLY #more like a theatre kid given the power of death #it would have been cooler if we'd stuck to the pantheon stuff but i'm guessing we'll be getting more of that next season #and also. i'm STILL hoping for susan goddamnit
