My Donna

Aug 07, 2008 10:34

During my years of service in the Buffy fandom there was a meme-ish sort of thing that went 'round a couple of times regarding the various characters. In particular, your take on said character; why they were the way they were etc. So I thought I'd drag out that old chestnut and give you the beginnings of my take on the lovely Donna Noble. It's ( Read more... )

I do like your Donna! Have a Wilf in return ( ... )

I can totally see that.

Thanks very much. What's your Donna like, if I may be so bold as to ask?

That's lovely! Donna is awesome.

My favourite character is Seven, so:
- He can never resist a game. The best ones are the sort where he gets to make the rules, but he'll take on almost anything, just for the challenge, and he'll almost always win.
- He's lost that tiresome nobility. He's still fighting the good fight, but he's not averse to bending the rules to suit him. He likes to think his first self would have approved.
- He still cannot believe he ever wore that terrible jacket.
- He first takes Ace on board because he can use her. He never expected to grow to love her so much.
- Sometimes he sees a shadow in his eyes that he doesn't understand, and it scares him.
- Destroying Skaro felt good. He feels alternately ashamed and terrified by that ( ... )

Thanks very much for playing. I have to admit that I'm only familiar with new Who but your Seven sounds intriguing.

Destroying Skaro felt good.

I think that's why Ten makes such loud proclaimations about the 'right thing to do'; he's trying to convince/remind himself as much as the people he's yelling at, because he remembers just how good it felt.

There are a couple of good fanvids on YouTube that summarise the various Doctors pretty well; one of my favourites for Seven is this one here. Seven is my favourite Doctor because there are just so many sides to him, and because the series finished before we could really learn more, there's so much we don't know about him.

I think Ten tries very hard to forget how much blood is on his hands; post-Time War, he's suddenly the only one with the power to stop himself, and I don't think he's quite gotten the hang of it yet.

I will definitely investigate Seven further.

I think you're right about Ten. I think that's why Davros got to him in JE because what he said about 'the children of time' is true; they are basically Ten's arsenal. Whether they do it voluntarily is beside the point. Ten uses them as weapons. It's all very interesting.
