Me: Do you know the definition of platonic soulmates?

Them: Yeah. It's two people who-

Me: WRONG. *slams pictures on table* IT'S THEM.

I fucking LOVE that Donna is not immune to being a little starry-eyed over The Doctor in the way that many of us get a little starry-eyed over our best friends but she IS immune to being that way in front of them lmao. Double love that this appears to also be Catherine Tate and David Tennant's dynamic

Donna Noble and 14th Doctor in "Wild Blue Yonder" 🫂

[sapphosboy]

I don’t think we talk enough about the fact that the tenth Doctor canonically tried to kill himself after losing Rose and he would’ve succeeded if Donna hadn’t stopped him

[doctorwhommm]

I will never stop talking about the Doctor and Donna

14th Doctor

Summary: a day in the life of the 14th doctor

He stared down at the text, a faint smile on his lips. There was a time he truly believed he would never see his best friend again. The idea had been so painful, when he walked away. Truly, she had been the candle in the dark. The only one to silence the Oncoming Storm. Another friend he had failed.

The Doctor thought themself to be terrible, back then. A curse disguised as a blessing. Maybe he had been, or maybe it was just self loathing. They literally were responsible for the loss of the Time Lords… if he had been a religious alien, perhaps they could consider past several thousand years as reparations.

Or, perhaps they had been running so long they had gotten themself stuck. Of course the pattern not broken today would repeat tomorrow. Of course. Like record stuck on loop- until it skips. Bi-generation.

Funny thing that was, lucky even. He had so much more left to do. Even in this time of peace. They didn’t mind being parked in their best friend’s backyard anyway. A lovely niece, a job with UNIT. He could still be ‘The Doctor’, always was.

He parked the bike at the rack, chaining it up before he walked into the grocery store. Walking back to the sign that said dairy, their mouth dropped as they surveyed the selection. Sure it wasn’t that expansive, yet still;

“How many percents are there? Is there a difference?” He inspected the date. Or did she want evaporated milk? Condensed? Whole? 1%? 2?

‘which milk?’

The Doctor stared at the screen as they awaited a reply. The typing bubble appearing in the app.

‘which kind? doctor, it’s milk. m i l k. you’re joking.’

Oh Donna. Seemed she had woken up on the wrong side of the bed today. Knowing her there was a right kind of milk. He grimaced as he sent a text to his lovely niece.

‘what milk does your mother drink, by chance?’

‘1/2% or whole. just make sure that you check the date this time!’

The Doctor sighed, grabbing the carton. They were never going to live THAT down…

"donna would've stopped the time lord victorious arc right away by laughing at the doctor for being cringe until he knocks it off out of embarrassment"

She Would Not Fucking Say Do That.

In Donna's very first episode, she witnesses the Doctor do something morally dubious, and comes to the conclusion that he needs to have a companion around to keep him from going too far. She tells him as much, too! And she is nothing but kind about it. She says what she thinks, she makes it clear he went too far, but she absolutely does not turn an otherwise serious scene into a haha funny roast session.

Donna is snarky and sassy and she does make fun of the Doctor, but she does not do so during serious emotional moments. It would be out of character for her to watch her best friend whom she loves and cares about hit emotional rock bottom and respond by mocking him. Whether you find his breakdown "cringey" or not, Donna is not that kind of person.

Maybe Donna could have stopped Ten going over the edge, maybe she couldn't, but if she could she absolutely would not have done it with ridicule. Quit doing Donna dirty like this.

@charliesginger this is the best description of Fourteen I’ve ever seen

[starlightseraph]

watching my gay little doctor show and my gay little religion show and my gay little time travel show and my gay little english high society show and my gay little starfleet shows and reading my gay little dostoevsky books and my gay little donna tartt books and my gay little mary shelley books and listening to my gay little rock songs and my gay little classical pieces and watching my gay little—

[robiniswriting]

donna noble consulting at unit is hilarious to me considering she’s got the doctor living in the tardis in her backyard and he’s actively trying to temporarily retire from the whole “saving humanity from the current existential alien threat” business.

the doctor asking about how her day went and donna just staring him down trying to decide whether or not she should let on that there’s some kind of invasion happening.

the doctor and donna having staring contests where they both know that he wants to go do something about the problem but donna is absolutely not going to let him.

rose comes home after school to find the doctor and donna sitting on the couch opposite each other forcefully drinking tea and engaging in the most intense version of small talk that has ever existed because they both know that if donna relents he will absolutely get involved in whatever unit-fuckery is going down on any given day.

but he’s committed to living life the slow way round (for the most part at least) and donna’s his best friend so she’s gonna help him goddammit, even if it means forcing him to sit on sylvia’s floral-patterned couch while he’s mentally bouncing off the walls with the desire to be useful.

poor rose, shaun, sylvia, and wilf are forced to bear witness to this battle of wills for the next ten to fifteen years before donna’s point — which is that we can manage without you sometimes, you idiot, you’re not the center of the universe and things don’t necessarily always fall apart just because you weren’t directly involved — finally sinks in and the doctor manages to find some semblance of chill.

(donna absolutely never admits to him how many of those crises were averted by other versions of him. she doesn’t want his ego to reinflate. they’ve been doing so well getting it to go down.)

[nat-20s]

DonnaMarthaRose underrated trio imo. Donna (37) looking at Rose (21) talking about getting married and settling down and Martha (23) talking about starting her 80 work week promptly is like "I need to take you two to the club right fucking now for your own health"

[robot-carl]

I want what they have. Where can I find my platonic soulmate.

Also the 2023 specials have reawaken my doctor who hyperfixation from 2011 and I’m perfectly fine with that.
