RTD is secretly an evil torturous fanfic writer. observe.
SPOILERS. PICSPAM. LARGE.
Oh Doctor, have I mentioned? It sucks being you.
Forget "rebirth," "stolen planets," or the medusa cascade....the real theme is: "Doctor...it sucks being you." What a terrible year its been for Ten. he gets possessed by some powerful entity, then almost murdered by a bus full of complete strangers. Gets a daughter just to have her die in his arms...and then he holds a gun to a man's head. He sees his future wife? lover? companion? die in front of him. He's shot by a Dalek. Not only loses a good friend, but was the one responsible for wiping her memory. He leaves the love of his life behind on an alternate universe to live out her life with his "other" self...
oh, and I almost forgot, he blew up Pompeii.
In the end we are left with the Doctor in the TARDIS. But because he couldn't just be sad and alone, RTD goes the extra mile and of course makes him soaking wet from the rain. The sad rain. The sad rain for sad wet Ten. Its like every "lets torture the doctor" fic I've ever read, all rolled up and condensed into one season not that I'm complaining.
a seasons overview in pictures.
"Why so glum, Ten?"
"Oh nothing. Just had a mysterious figure from my future die right in front of me while I watched. Hand cuffed. After she punched me in the face."
"..."
"did I mention she also knew my uber secret name?"
*this is the face Ten makes when he's imploding. why does his name make him implode? dunno. but I have theories. *
tTens "scared shitless" face.
He's stared down the Devil himself, and yet he almost gets killed by a bus full of n00bs.
ANGST LEVEL: critical
commiting mass murder.
("Hey, its just like old times!")
The Doctor gets a daughter!
But she makes Ten happy, so of course she has to die.
sad hopeful face.
The doctor. awash in a sea of his own self-loathing....
...with just a dash of Oncoming Storm.
Man, why do all the good ones get mindwiped? two/jamie FTW
this picture completely breaks my heart.
but maybe they'll end the season on a happy note??
oh...
EDIT: as always. all pictures are free to take. just credit.
