Can we have a group hug?

And, I dunno, just vent our feelings?

Spoilers most definitely in the comments.

I feel a bit better now! Thank you! I'll feel more better when my boyfriend finally gets to watch so I can rant to him. He probably won't feel the same way but even my friend who ISNT an 11/Amy shipper in the slightest went WTF. But she gave up after the weeping angels last year. She is not a Moff fan and now neither am I :(

I'm still a Moff fan because I know Amy and Rory aren't gone forever. Plus, it's the nature of the beast: The Companions will always leave and the Doctor will always regenerate. When it comes down to it, the Doctor did the kindest thing by letting them off at a brand spankin' new house with Rory's favorite car. It's the best send-off we've seen in Nu!Who.

If anything, this episode gave me more grounds to ship Amy/11. There were SO. MANY. moments. Gosh. Once this bad case of the blues washes over me, I think I'll be brimming to write fic again.

My bf watched it, too, and he's an Amy/11 shipper, too (taught him right!!). But when the episode ended, which was immediately followed by the Next Time, all he had to say was, "The Cybermen are coming back??" I went silent for a moment and said, "DID YOU MISS THAT WHOLE AMY LEAVING BIT?!" hahahaha

I know but honestly I thought that was the worst fate and send off actually. Rose got human!10, Martha moved on and got Mickey (lucky girl) and Donna doesn't remember ANYTHING, up to know, I thought she had the worst fate of going back to who she was. Nope. Amy definitely did. I mean she had to lose her faith in him and she hadn't even after she lost her daughter! A daughter he promised to find (yes yes its River and she cheated and regenerated but I still have issues with that too) She doesn't get to raise her child, she watched her baby melt in her arms, that's traumatizing!

LOLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL! That was my reaction in my haze of anger I went OMG!CYBERMAN AND CRAIG!?!? YAY!!!! then went back to being angry. I'll get over it soon and will have to finally buck up and try to write something 11/Amy related, I'm always scared to though. I think I wrote a one shot after Lis's death that wareceiveded pretty well.

Yeah, his companions have had some shitty send-offs, and you do have a point with Amy. Maybe I'm the eternal optimist and am trying to see the positive? hahaha

My first thought about that is that she's been holding on to her faith in him to deal with all that trauma, that it's been pulling her through, and now she's had a bit of time for that to sink in, she'll be able to think about it and deal with it rather than just be 'arg can't what' about it, so now's the time she can let go of her faith in him. When it doesn't have to keep her going through everything else any more.

Ooh, good point, I didn't consider that before. Yeah, Amy and Rory need some time to process the trauma they've been through with the whole Amy Is Suddenly Pregnant to Melody Is Gone to Melody Is River Song to Melody Was Our Best Friend, Thanks Time Wimey. That's a crap load to go through.

HAHAHAHAHHAHA Glad I'm not alone in the frustration. I also guess Cybermen coming back was old news for me since I read spoilers, but still!! FUCKIN' AMY, GUIZ.

THIS! I'm sad, sure, but the fanfic possibilities are over-riding everything else right now. I just re-watched the episode again, and I still love it.

The Doctor let Amy go to save her. It's heart-breaking and brave and so Eleven to me. It worked for me. *shrugs* I just want fanfic and fanvids and all the gifs and caps I can get my hands on!

YESSSSSS I'm already brewing a couple of fanfics. I expect this community to be bursting over the next couple of weeks!
