She Knows: For Those Confused About John Hurt.

“What I did was in the name of peace and sanity.”
“I know. But not in the name of the Doctor.”

Guys. It’s not 12. It’s 8.5. 11 knows who this is. It’s gotta be the Doctor who ended the time war. The disowned Doctor because he committed the acts that scarred 9 and 10 so deeply.

Also. John Hurt + Matt Smith = John Smith. 

BUT

LIKE

he talks about the atrocities he committed in the time war all the time. So…he did do it in the name of the Doctor. Lots of people remark on it during 9/10/11’s adventures. Starting with in Rose, with the Nestene. The know him - and that the actions were committed by him - as the Doctor. So…gdi moffat this plot does not make sense. 

p.s. if this is correct and eight is no longer the time war doctor then i’m gonna flip some tables in anger tbqh, and I haven’t even listened to Big Finis or w/e. Strangely attached to Eight as Time War Doctor anyway. As it should be.

p.p.s surely it’s got to be something other than the time war i mean i know that there’s not much worse he could possibly have done, but seriously, it does not make logical sense for him to be talking about killing all the daleks and time lords here.

ALSO, THE REASON RTD CREATED THE TIME WAR AS A PLOT POINT BUT DIDN’T EXPLORE IT AS IN SHOW IT ON SCREEN IS BECAUSE, AS GATISS OR MAYBE BRIGGS SAID (I DON’T REMEMBER WHO) NO ONE COULD DO THE DEPICTION OF THE TIME WAR JUSTICE. SO GET THE FUCK AWAY FROM IT MOFFAT ASFS;L;SAKGD;SG;KSELGKASD;GKL

I only take the best. by ~Miss-Alex-Aphey

Gah…Martha. I could not stand her. At first I was like oh cool a doctor in training she’ll be really clever, but nooooo she falls for the doctor.#LIKE NO BITCH HE’S STILL GETTING OVER ROSE FUCK OFF! I cannot be the only one who feels this way.

Actually, I thought Martha was probably the bravest of the lot. Because she did what any of us would do - she fell in love with the Doctor, I would too - but she was self-aware enough to realize when it got unhealthy, and she got out and made a better life for herself, on her own, after literally being the strongest person on the planet during the year that never was, and then when the Doctor found Rose again, Martha was happy for him.  

I ship Doctor/Rose. But it isn’t Martha’s fault she fell in love with someone whose literal introduction to her was kissing her full on the mouth. It isn’t like she fell for him on purpose, nobody goes into a crush like that thinking “Gee, I am going to develop romantic feelings solely to spite someone else.” 

It doesn’t work that way, and Martha Jones was a star. The Doctor thought she was brilliant; I don’t understand why companion hate is a thing.
