666, the number of the crack
So, I was thinking about an idea I had, and my obsession with Midnight. And how weird Midnight is.
And I figured out why Midnight is part of the season. I figured out why the Doctor did what he did in Journey's End.
The Doctor didn't mindwipe Donna to save her life because she wouldn't have died. Did you notice how she kept repeating? HOw she couldn't really seem to move to stop him? She just sort of stood there and took it?
The Doctor wiped Donna to save the world.
Because of Midnight.
When Sky Sylvestry flew out of the cabin in Midnight, the Doctor wasn't released from Midnight's hold. Instead, it completed its jump to him,a nd he sensed this. Part of why he was so emo about it all. Part of why he was acting funny all through TSE/JE. He deliberately got hit by that Dalek in the hope that a regeneration would get rid of it, but it didn't. So he sort of submitted to the Daleks so it coudln't use him to take over the universe. But then Donna touched the hand and absorbed the energy, and with it, posession by Midnight. Handy too. The Doctor left Handy with Rose becuase he knew she'd figure it out and find a way to cure him, but he couldn't control himself well enough to properly save Donna. So he buried the memories that might trigger Midnight in her and left her with her family, with the fake excuse of the biological metacrisis because he's too ashamed to admit it--or pehraps, being prevented by Midnight. And then he went off on his own being really emo. I wonder why? to protect mankind from Midnight until he can cure himself!
And remember Jethro! "666!" Iron Maiden reference? YOU BET. "Number of the Beast" lyrics:
I left alone
My mind was blank
I needed time to think
To get the memories from my mind
What did I see?
Could I believe
That what I saw that night was real and not just fantasy?
Just what I saw in my old dreams
Were they reflections of my warped mind staring aback at me
'Cause in my dreams it's always there!
The evil face that twists my mind and brings me to despair!
Night was black, was no use holding back
'Cause I just had to see, was someone watching me?
In the mist, dark figures move and twist
Was all this for real, or just some kind of hell?
666, The Number of the Beast
Hell and fire were spawned to be released!
Torches blazed and sacred chants were phrased
As they start to cry, hands held to the sky
In the night, the fires are burning bright
The ritual has begun, Satan's work is done
666, The Number of the Beast
Sacrifice is going on tonight!
This can't go on, I must inform the law
Can this still be real, or just some crazy dream?
But I feel drawn toward the chanting hoardes
Seem to mesmerize; can't avoid their eyes
666, the Number of the Beast
666, the one for you and me!
I'm coming back, I will return!
And I'll possess your body and I'll make you burn
I have the fire, I have the force
I have the power to make my evil take its course!
YEAH HOW ABOUT THEM COMPLIMENTARY EARPLUGS.
