Random Shippy Drivel - DW (spoilers up to S3)

[hippiebanana132]

Doctor/Rose versus Ten/Martha. Under the cut because it's utter nonsense and was written solely to drag me out of my emo and kick me into believing in my ship again. Sometimes I need to remind myself of this stuff, when I read articles about bed-sharing or the Doctor invites yet another person along.

For a moment there, I thought I could see where

Awww. You know, maybe it's horrible insensitive of me, but I hadn'tactually realised your ship was, as they say, "sinking". I know how you felt/feel. In the beginning of season three, I was just so incredibly angry at what they'd done and at other people's reactions that they kind of got caught up in my own and I found myself believing things that I didn't want to believe.

Then I watched 42 and it toally got to the closest ship-sinking I ever experienced. And then, I don't know, something changed. I read the passionate reviews of other Rose/Doctor shippers and somehow it affected me so much that I just laugh at the idea of Ten/Martha because it's so trvial, so mundane, and just isn't going to happen. Somehow it just does not compute in my head, I can't even see it and it literally makes me laugh. It's almost a joke.

I hadn't realised you were so close to losing your faith in Doctor/Rose. There's nothing really I could say to cheer you up, either, because the faith and belief in them has to come from you :P I know they were utterly and completely in love, I know he's still hurting because of it, and I now know that I really don't care what shippy happens with him in the future because I've somehow managed to believe that canon isn't canon and that in my head, it's all alright. Which is weird. I believe what I see on the show, but in a more sort of "these are just stepping stones before Rose" kind of way.

Don't ask me to explain it, it's impossible. but when I visit in the summer, you and I are going to have a big sit down and squee all over DW and LoM and it'll all be happy-making :D

Except... by then, the season will be over o.O

Whoops. I rambled. Sorry!

Somehow it just does not compute in my head, I can't even see it and it literally makes me laugh. It's almost a joke. - That is EXACTLY how I used to be, but then something about Family of Blood made me stop and think...no, I could maybe see this happening in the future. But when I think about it more carefully, I know they could never work as a couple, like he and Rose potentially could have, even if they do make him love her. I don't know. Perhaps it's because Freema learnt to act and for the first time I believed what she was saying, believed she loves him (not that she's in love with him, though, not by a long shot) and that it's not just some silly crush. Still, that means nothing on his part. :)

I know they were utterly and completely in love, I know he's still hurting because of it - Yeah. I just have to remind myself sometimes that, just because he isn't mentioning Rose 24/7, that in no way means he's forgotten her. Afterall, it's been as long for him as it has for us, now, perhaps longer, and I don't bawl everytime her name is mentioned, but it still makes me sad and I still think about it. *grins*

I've somehow managed to believe that canon isn't canon - ROFL it's the best way to be.

when I visit in the summer, you and I are going to have a big sit down and squee all over DW and LoM and it'll all be happy-making :D - Absolutely! I'm holding you to that! *grins*
