Meta: Jack/Ianto and Lurve, that old chestnut.

Notes: There may be bits of this that aren't 100% serious, I hope they are obvious. As to canon, I am counting all the television episodes, and the radio plays, not the books and other media. (I think the books get a little confusing and I know some people don't count them, so I won't) I also am well aware that the plays were written after CoE, but

re: Rose

[hohaiyee]

NOOOOOOO! I love Rose. I hate Gwen most of the time, but I absolutely love Rose. Probably because of excellent acting more than writing, but god, Billie Piper is awesome. Totally check her out back during her year 2000 pop music career. It's good music...like, I can grove to Brittany Spears, but the problem with that is that her songs and presentations were often hollow acting of a seductive virgin sex kitten For Men. Piper's songs are FUN. Like, Because We Want To, it just sounds so HAPPY.

The way that Piper played Rose, infectiously happy Rose, I can see how genocide survivor Nine would be so obsess with her, she was the first person he's spent an extended among of time with after he lost his people. Like, before, he had his fellow timelords, and then he was left alone with Those Puny Humans, and then, suddenly, Rose! Rose who was unafraid and kicked ass from the very first day (as oppose to say, something unproductive like being angry that people was trying to stay alive by eating).

Yes, the Doctor moping about Rose is tiring, but why fridge Rose? Him moping is HIS problems, address that. Just have the Doctor be happy, or content, that Once Upon A Time, he met Rose, they were fabulous together, and now she's in a happier universe with her family and a lover, he followed the campsite rule and left her in a better state than when he found her, and vice versa too. Be happy about that.

I like Billie P and have a soft spot for Rose. I definitely think she had much more chemistry with Eccles than with DT. I think they have flogged her storyline though, and I doubt Moffat will bother. If the ratings drop though, well all kinds of people will come back.
