Spoilers: The Big Bang - set in that episode
“Is he… is he dead?”
Amelia had to ask that question and it is spinning around in my head, and all the possible answers to that question are dancing with it. I’ve just told myself that the whole of reality is collapsing everything in the universe is dying and everyone is slipping into nothingness and I don’t know yet how I am going to save it, but I need that Pandorica, but the Dalek is going to, admittedly, make that difficult, but River who isn’t here yet, but will be, will help and so will Amy and Rory the plastic man and everything may or may not be alright in the end, and it’s my Tardis, she’s the problem and the solution and I don’t doubt that for a second, but everything is confusing, and where did my Fez go, well, being half way exterminated always did/will make me a little incoherent, and Old Gallifreyan can be so picky and time consuming but so much quicker than this little ape’s language, ooh, thanks 9th, needed that right now, go away now, no time, which we don’t have, need to get to the roof, my Tardis, River, so the quickest, most time saving answer slips out of my mouth even before I know what it is I am saying.
“What? Dead? Yes, yes, of course he’s dead.”
Which, in point of fact, isn’t quite a lie: it’s just half a sentence. One I’d rather not finish.
