Erm...yes.

 I just watched End of Time. It seemed appropriate for the pending rapture, which has (apparently?) passed me by. Or, passed me over really. But here are some things that made me raise my eyebrows.

1) The Doctor has married and had sex with Queen Elizabeth I. Anyone who knows me even the slightest knows that I am...a bit...in awe of this. Please tell me that there is Ten/QE1 fic out there somewhere? I need to have it all.
 
2) Why does Rassilon have the Risen Mitten? I'm...slightly perplexed. 
 
3) Look, I know it's a raw and painful concept anyway, but the scene with Jack - WHAT THE BLEEDING FUCK!? "Save everyone's life!  Except Jack, who can't die, so pimp someone out to him!" He could've just, you know, said some nice words? Like, "You aren't wrong." Or something. It...really made no sense, actually. And I don't really understand what Alonso was doing in that bar to begin with. Did the Doctor bring him there? What's going on? (Also, do not find him attractive in the slightest. It might have been easier to handle, if I did). 
 
4) Yeah. I totally ship Ten/Master all of the time forever now. SHUT UP. 
 
5) I watched all of the specials, actually, and just want to say: WHY IS EVERYONE FROM ROME IN THE WHONIVERSE?! Okay, not everyone. But we've got Servilia (Adelaide Brooke) and "Newsreader" (Churchill) and Niobe (Suzie). Interestingly, Lindsay Duncan was also in Christopher and His Kind (I really love Lindsay Duncan, I think. She is beautiful). Am I missing anyone!? But really, it just makes me super happy. :D
 
Now I will have to watch Season 5 (FINALLY) when I am a) not bawling my eyes out and b) not being harassed by my family. I mean, seriously, the Doctor is being all sad and emo and epic and I'm crying hysterically - STOP ASKING ME WHAT  THE TARDIS IS! 
 
Anyway. Yes. Ten/Elizabeth, anyone? PLEASE!?

The background to your icon...makes me think it's a school photo!

Anyway. I have seen the Jack/Alonso scene before, actually. I never noticed the tears in Jack's eyes or even...really forced flirting. I just thought it was odd that Alonso would be in a random bar and the Doctor would pimp him out, rather than give Jack something more meaningful. That said, what really irks me about that scene? Why are there baby Adipose wandering around A BAR UNATTENDED AND DRUNK!? THEY ARE BABIES. *Ahem*

Master and Ten is really lovely. I don't think I'd read it so much, but yes. I'm going to probably try fitting Season 5 in between work and research this next week or so. I still haven't opened the damn package! I need something to do that doesn't cost me money.

And yeah - I like Matt Smith a good deal. I don't think he will overshadow Ten in my affections, but then, I don't think even JRM could do it were he cast as the Doctor. (But oh, as the Master, he would be brilliant!) I will miss Ten, absolutely. And I did cry! Just...not for...a day? More like, less than 5 minutes, which is a really long time for me! lol

Also, I won't end up watching Season 6 until the DVDs come you - you know that, right? lol
