#revival who

[justletmeramble1701]

Do you guys subscribe to the theory that (at least, starting in NuWho) the Doctor can, somewhat, subconsciously control his regenerations?

Like, of course, 8 wanted to be a warrior, so he became the War Doctor (I know that he drank a potion for that, but that might’ve just been lemonade according to the Target Novelization).

War wanted to be the hero, to earn the title, the Doctor, again, so he became 9.

9 wanted to be someone who was the perfect partner to Rose (human), so he became 10.

10, in his vanity, wanted his final regeneration to be young, so he became 11.

11, after all the heartache, wanted to be more distant (and also what they said in series 8), so he became 12.

12 wanted a kind, fresh start, so he became 13.

13 wanted to open up to someone, so she became 14.

14 wanted time to heal, so he split off 15.

This is not an original theory, and I'm not even saying that I buy into it fully it, but it's interesting. It would be interesting if the Doctor had a tiny bit of control over their regeneration (Romana did, somehow) and most of the time his wants either backfire or only half work.

What do you think?

When River Song says that the TARDIS makes the trademark noise because the Doctor leaves the parking brake on, it implies one of two possibilities:

1. The writer hasn't watched any Classic Who, and was unaware every single TARDIS we see - including the Master's and a Timelord who's name I forget whose BODY makes the noise as he's popping in to talk to the Doctor - makes that trademark noise

2. The writer has seen Classic Who and all timelords as a collective drive their TARDISes with the parking brake on because they like the noise, which says some hilarious things about Time Lord society

Edit:

BEHOLD. A Time Lord who left his parking brake on! Don't ask where his parking brake is

look I’m just saying:

Laios at 22 vs 26

Kabru at 22

I believe in Kabru’s ability to become a lil beefy once he stops constantly having to lose body mass from being revived so often and eats better and I hc post canon Kabru as gaining a lil weight and being the hot knight we all know he is

White ppl like to pretend all the Palestinian fundraisers are run by the same ppl behind the pet scams but always fail to acknowledge the reason why the pet scams got so fucking popular & worked for so long is because White users on this site care more about animals than racialized groups so they'd instantly give them money

BBC Iplayer has settled the debate on when the revival era has ended and a new one began.
