#i love you 12th doctor

[soapywankenopy]

Ok so I'm not really sure how to put it into words but have the past few episodes of Doctor Who actually felt like doctor who to you guys? Because I've liked them, but they haven't really felt like Doctor Who to me. I don't even know like what I'm referring to and idk. It could just be that the visuals look so crisp and the effects are good? Idk like it feels like watching a marvel movie visually. But I think I also had this problem with most of 13's run too. Like the last time that I really felt Doctor Who was Doctor Whoing was with 12. Wild Blue Yonder felt more Doctor Whoey but it still wasn't 100%.

Do not misunderstand me, I really like the new episodes (most of them, i didn't care for the devil's chord) and I am starting to come around on Ruby and I've been behind Ncuti all the way.

The aesthetics have been great, and especially Dot and Bubble had that fun pastel aesthetic (which i loved how it contrasted with the darker elements). It reminded me vaguely of Smile from 2016 in 12's run, which is one of my favorite episodes.

The Church on Ruby Road was good and silly, but it was not my favorite.

Space Babies I enjoyed quite a lot.

The Devil's Chord is easily my least favorite so far. Mostly because I was a big Beatles fan growing up, and it was historically inaccurate in annoying ways, and I didn't like the actors they got for Paul and John (mostly Paul bc I honestly couldn't care less about John, although it did bug me so much that they gave him the stereotypical round glasses when he would've been wearing the square, Buddy Holly-esque glasses that he wore in the beginning of their careers). The villain was tiresome and annoying to me and felt like they should've been a bigger deal than a random villain in the third episode (i get that they're leading to something).

Boom felt the most Doctor Who to me. Idk what in particular about it. Liked it.

I really really liked 73 Yards. It's probably my favorite of 15's run so far.

Dot and Bubble was a very intriguing episode, and I generally enjoyed it, and it made me root for the bugs at the end (the fact that Miss Girl betrayed Ricky September was devastating to me and then when the racism rug was pulled out from under us I was like UGH OF COURSE). Glad they all died this time ♡♡ xx

I'm really excited for what comes next and I think most of the episodes have been good. I think eventually I'll get over the "this doesn't feel like Doctor Who to me" feeling. I love Ncuti and I like Millie.

I miss the 12th doctor every day of my life tho

peter capaldi doctor sitting on a bench going "yeah i had a crush on the master. when he was a boy. and i was also a boy. yeah gender is stupid and ours are better than yours. get on our level. idiot." to his favorite lesbian and then missing his mouth and dropping food all over his lap is actually so iconic.

twelve + smiling [S8 / S9 / S10]

twelve spending 4.5 billion years punching through a 20ft thick wall of azbantium, a material apparently 400x harder than diamond, dying repeatedly in the process, all so he could get clara back... like whether you see them as platonic or romantic you cannot deny that he quite literally loved her to death

THE TWELFTH DOCTOR I THE MAGICIAN'S APPRENTICE

[thekingofspin]

the doctor and clara say "I have a duty of care" instead of I love you

[foolishlyzephyrus]

clara’s theme playing when 12 decides not to wipe bill’s mind? cruel, evil, uncalled for

I can say that the 11th doctor is my favorite and also say the the 12th doctor was the best. Two things can be true at the same time.

shout out to clara and 12 for being the "horribly-codependent-life-destorying-perspective-of-love-skewing-bad-for-everyone-including-people-outside-this-thing" relationship representation we needed

twelve + havin' a little snack (again) ↳ part one

[lastofgallifrey]

in my eyes twelve is the doctor™ and the culmination of everything the doctor is and has ever wanted to be. i've always seen him as kinder and more painfully human than those before him and even though being nice can be a struggle being kind is literally his whole Thing. he's a good guy. with the roughest of exteriors but the gentlest of souls. gets angry but never resentful. flawed but his heart's in the right place. has difficulty with affection but cares more deeply than most. a little snarky and blunt but so compassionate and thoughtful and good and your honor he's really just a guy

I love the line "she's the only person I've ever met who's even remotely like me" because he could have so easily said that it's because she's the only other timelord, that the rest of his planet is hidden away at the end of time and she is all he has but. Thats not what he says.

He says she's the only person he has ever met who is like him. All the people he has met across time and space, everyone from his home and everyone he has met since, so many wonderful and kind people, but none of them will ever understand him the way she can, and vice versa
