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

Oh, you definitely have a point there. I'm decidedly far more like Martha (in terms of education, independence, stubbornness, sulkiness, whining - in fact, 80% of what I don't like in Martha is what I see in myself) - but despite all that, I just cannot identify with the woman. I can, however, identify with Rose, which was my (badly expressed, sorry) point =)

I love everything you're saying, I really do. I'd sit here and make points back at you but there's no sense in it because I simply agree completely. And, y'know, perhaps it's time for me to realise that, just because the show is a little lacking in the Rose references right now, doesn't mean that she is absent from the Doctor's thoughts :)

I wish I could love Martha, but there's just something stopping me. I went into the show with far more prejudice towards BP and Catherine Tate than Freema or Martha, but those two won me over within five minutes. It worries me slightly that HN/FoB was the first time I didn't have to roll my eyes at Martha's actions or Freema's acting. I've liked her recently, though, so hopefully it will continue :)
