There is the Toymaker, the god of games. There is Trickster, the god of traps. There is Maestro, the god of music. There is Reprobate, the god of spite. There is the Mara, the god of beasts. And the threefold deity of malice and mischief and misery. There are gods of skin and shame and secrets. There is Incensor the god of disaster, and her children called Doubt and Dread. And standing on high is the mother and father and other of them all. For the god of all gods has returned. And his names are many. His name has been Set, and Seth, and Setekh. And his one true name forever more is... Sutekh.

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

When the Time Lords kept their eye on everything, you could hop between realities, home in time for tea. Then they died, took it all with them. The walls of reality closed, the worlds were sealed. Everything became that bit less kind.

The Pantheon of Discord | Doctor Who, The Legend of Ruby Sunday

In reference to the theory I’ve seen going around that Ruby is secretly part of The Pantheon

The Toymaker= the living personification of games

The Maestro= the living personification of music

Both of them have the ability to warp reality specifically they often warp it to fit the rules of their respective concepts. The Toymaker makes the world run on the rules of a game, The Maestro makes the world run like a musical. And reality continues to warp around Ruby BUT it does so in very specific ways…

The space station adheres to the rules of a children’s story, the rules of time travel change to incorporate the butterfly effect based on stories she knows and coincidences or connections continue to pop up around her and the plot of a story is often built on connections, often coincidences that turn out to be anything but. So…

Ruby Sunday= the living personification of stories

What do we think, tumblr?

I haven't been interested in how the pantheon of gods in recent Dr Who have been done, but I do like that Sutekh explicitly kept his Osirian origin story, and he became the god of death due to all his vortex exposure/tardis-jacking/whatever. Which means the Pantheon of Discord (to use the Trickster's name for it) isn't intrinsic forces of the universe, they're powerful entities who have gained some form of connection. I think the Pantheon of Discord is just some powerful aliens' discord server.

#dw spoilers #doctor who #my posts #sutekh #the finale does raise the question of how exactly Sutekh is the king and father etc of a pantheon and the most fear amongst the gods #when he's spent his entire godhood clinging to a moving box #But as far as logical questions go the movements and politics of gods is the least of this story arc's worries jsdkljf

new theory: susan twist is obviously having more prominent roles every time she shows up but my friend pointed out she also seems to get slightly more evil every time. from space baby staff saying she disagrees with abandoning the station to the first person to run away terrified of ruby to a very rich figure in a society so privileged they would rather die to uphold their system than take help from the doctor...

#idk what this MEANS #but i think she might be right #maybe she'll show her true colours and be revealed as a pantheon of discord #lina lore #doctor who #dw spoilers #doctor who spoilers #spoilers #susan twist #dot and bubble

Absolutely living for the fact that The Toymaker FOUND The One Who Waits and merely said “It was someone else’s game”.

When what he meant was:

“Yeaaahhhh so, the literal god of death is treating your ship like a non-stop Uber whilst licking his battle wounds. One day he is going to pop up and absolutely wreck all life, everywhere you have ever been”.

He could not have been more deliberately vague and unhelpful if he tried, and it is 1000000% on-brand Toymaker buffoonery.

This is a brand new science for me, and I love it. The language of luck. 'Cause what is a coincidence but a form of accident? Two things bumping together unexpectedly. Like you and me.

#dwedit #doctor who #usertennant #userteri #userveronika #miatendos #userdiana #usertreena #ruby sunday #fifteenth doctor #maestro #*#originally this was just going to be ruby + snow and then it devolved from there #memories changing... being brought into the present..... some connection to the ancient one. luck coincidences connections.#the doctor describes the legion as a 'pantheon'; a group of gods. and so far they're all personifications #the toymaker is 'a living game'; maestro is 'the essence of music itself'; henry arbinger = harbinger and acts as prelude to the gods #then 'the one who waits' is perhaps... time? death?#and 'the oldest one'... that could mean a lot of things #my first thought was that the oldest one would be death since the finale is called 'the empire of death'. alternatively: life.#but if you connect it back to ruby: luck coincidences connections. so far that's been her whole thing. so maybe something related to that #then again we're only on ep 2 of 8 so... anyway. idk what any of this means but. thinking thoughts!!!#worth noting: if the snow is a warning it starts snowing in the tardis during the scan. it reveals her genetic id/species/age #but not her nucleotide composition. whatever tf that is. and it only gets to 75% complete before it pans away. but it does finish scanning #and in canon 6+ months pass between the end of ep 1 and the beginning of ep 2 so... presumably the doctor has SEEN those results. fwiw.

The Doctor, back on his “I’m the Last of the Time Lords. I’m so special. Look at me,” melodrama, sobbing his eyes out while fighting literal gods and saving the world with the power of friendship

Vs.

The Master, still stuck in that tooth, making sock puppets of themself and the Doctor, probably. “Don’t you see? You’ve been blind too long, Doctor! Look at what you’ve made! Look at me!”

“Oh Master, I’ve always seen you and I always will…because you…see me.” (Doctor puppet passionately kisses Master puppet)

“You’re too late.” (Master puppet brutally murders Doctor puppet)

#doctor who spoilers #doctor who #Thoschei #I FREAKING LOVED THOSE EPISODES #i have many thoughts #the Master would have wanted to be in that music battle against Maestro so bad #who is the head of the pantheon aka the one who waits?#do Ruby’s mysterious timey wimey powers have anything to do with the Pantheon #how does all this tie into the timeless child #are Doc and Ruby gonna become the new Tenrose or stay ambiguous #why is the Master haunting the narrative #is the timeless child from the same place as the pantheon #the Toymaker would love Eurovision and the Maestro would hate it #they let the Doctor be anti capitalist again : )

The Toymaker entered the universe in 1925.

So did Maestro.

So, knowing what we know now, it wouldn't surprise me if "Wild Blue Yonder" is set in 1925 too... just at the edge of the universe of course.
