Whovian Anniversary continuation :)

9:00-10:00 Spyfall Part 1

[marvelmaniac715]

It’s so funny rewatching Spyfall, Part 1 and seeing the Master acting like Dora the Explorer or a video game NPC, dumping large amounts of exposition on the Doctor to prompt her towards figuring things out because it’s too boring to wait for her to come to the conclusions on her own. Literally the entire time he’s like:

“Why would they do that, Doctor? Why are they altering DNA, Doctor? What’s up with Barton? Is there anything I can do to help, such as firing up this machine you haven’t looked at but would presumably be really helpful?”

It must have been so frustrating for him to act like a sweet, nice human guy, a little bit of sass comes out when he asks if Graham’s just there for “the running commentary”, he even allows himself one sinister simile with “they’re stalking their prey, like animals…” because he’s getting through to the Doctor one way or another, Rassilon help him. Then finally in the third act he reveals himself so quickly, because he’s probably so tired of keeping up the act and seeing the Doctor fail to understand his scheme, he’s even providing a motivational “come on, you can do it” during his reveal as a final effort to get results. I just love it 😭.

alr i noticed this whole ago i thought id share it with y'all anyone notice that the 13th doctor's coat for her tux looks a lot like it couldve been one of the 12th doctor's old coats, in-universe? like it has the iconic red lining of his and not to mention it being a bit oversized for 13

(here're two more pics of 13 from her first ep in 12's coat and 12 from The Lie of The Land for comparison)

if you leave me when i try to be evil and leave me when i try to be good maybe you won't leave me if i try to be a secret third thing (ex mi6 data analyst amassing a thorough record of alien activity, with an excessive security system, a crush on you, and very poorly buried anger issues)

A morsel for my lovely Rogue!Master truthers

[dandelionjack]

random out of the blue theory-slash-headcanon regarding "Rogue": he's either a Time Agent, Division or CIA. the whirlwind romance was a honeypot for the Doctor, practically textbook spycraft. and it worked.

the Doctor loves to fall for morally grey rascals, right? so they, whoever 'they' are, construct a perfectly designed handsome bounty hunter for the Doctor to become enchanted by, complete with a 'heart of gold' and undue self-sacrificial heroism.

then a monster. there needs to be a monster. since this is all play-acting and showmanship, make them cosplayers. draw the Doctor in. make the puzzle irresistible for him.

break his heart. enthrall his mind. entice him to place the tracker ring onto his finger of his own accord. gather intelligence: confirm that this is The Doctor, the sole living Time Lord in the universe, highly dangerous entity, war criminal of his own admittance, and my oh my, what a prize. what a bounty on his head. but not quite yet. Rogue's recon mission along with his Chuldur fellow travellers was just for information, and they got that aplenty, TARDIS console tour and all.

all six of them were oddly calm as Rogue pressed send on the triform trap: they weren't going to a barren dimension. they were headed back to Headquarters, ready to report a successful task completed.

Happy anniversary to the scene where The Master’s eyes check out The Doctor’s face and for one second land on her lips.

honestly the best moment in the woman who fell to earth is when Yaz and Ryan are tasked with operating a crane by the doctor and they have to youtube it to work out how. So underappreciated. So realistic. Of Course they'd go on youtube to work it out and of course there's be a video on there telling people how to work a crane.

hi so idk how many doctor who nerds are familiar with aboriginal australian mythology lmaooo but ive learned about it in school a bit and as i did it seemed vv familiar

so as you (probably) know spyfall pt.2 takes part in place in australia right? well!

in aboriginal mythology there is this thing called the dreaming. the dreaming was basically this realm that was “shaped by the actions of mythical creatures”. it is this kind of in between realms, right? an other.

so that doesn’t have to be related to thr kasaavin right? well dwdw theres more,.

one of these “creatures” are known as the great fertility mothers, which basically created the first humans. i think that could relate to how the kasaavin have been around for eons. they have always been around, right? they didnt just appear one day.

now really these could be coincidences, but then u get to this idea of totemism, and tjurungas.

basically, totems would serve as agents, playing certain people in the land of the Dreaming? Look familiar?

seeing this image is what got me thinking about this, because wow ur telling me these long wooden objects connect u to another realm, one that is shaped by the actions of mythical creatures? huh. thats interesting.

lastly, the idea of the tjurunga. basically it was a ritual object, most often made of wood or stone, that represented the manifestation of a mythical being. kinda reminds me of this, yeah?

my only acting experience is getting the lead role in where the wild things are when i was in y2 and pretending to be a murderous time travelling alien telling their narrative foil that theyre not actually a spy when im meant to be downstairs painting
