but I felt like this also harked back to Gridlock where Martha spent the entire episode trying to get Ten to TELL HER SOMETHING. Bill only has to spend one scene doing that - "That's not what I asked," she repeats, increasing the pressure with each repetition until the Doctor has to give her an answer. But she's not nasty or aggressive, just stubborn, refusing to let him fob her off.
Oh excellent catch. Yes. Although the biggest difference is the fact that the Doctor has stopped running... Ten was running from everything, himself most of all. (I am working on a post re all this.)

Being a teenager, Ten was made of pure outrage... and sometimes just pure rage.
True dat.

I smiled at this because it reminded me of the last time we saw Rory and how when Amy scoffed "What, you think you'll just come back to life?" his whip-smart response was "When don't I?!"
I MISS THEM SO MUCH!

But Eleven could never have made the same kind of joke. It says a lot about how much Twelve's healed that he can.
The Doctor was very compelling when he was hurting. But I'm glad he's better now.

It does indeed help that the Doctor is no longer running away from everything and has the time to stop and listen.

I MISS THEM SO MUCH!

ME, TOO. Oh Ponds...

I'm very glad that the Doctor is better.

There will be meta on this.

Ponds. Glorious Ponds. *deep sigh*

As are well all, I suspect. Except for the rabid Ten fans. ;)
