Neil Gaiman, making canon things I've loved from my beginning days of Doctor Who. I loved it dearly.

[persiflage_1]

Yes, I love that he's made fanon into canon...

[malicehaughton]

Yep! So do I.

[trinity_tragedy]

This. For sure. And more.

It's my icon! ^__^ So glad you love it.

Reference to River Song? (*is thinking of Forest of the Dead*)

That was my first thought too!

[persiflage_1]

Yay! Brain twins!

[trinity_tragedy]

That's what I thought as well, but Occam's razor usually doesn't apply to DW.

[persiflage_1]

Eh, it's more likely to apply in the Moffat Whoniverse than in RTD's!

Just about the best thing ever. Hot chocolate (or you fave comfort drink) and a snuggly blanket. LOVED IT SO MUCH.

[persiflage_1]

I loved it too!! *glomps*

[abstruse_fangrl]

This was such a great episode! I loved it from the word go.

I especially loved the bits wherein the TARDIS says that she wanted to see the universe so she stole herself a timelord, the only one reckless enough to do it.

And I loved the sense of seeing what she's lost as we look at the graveyard of her sisters. We get so much of what the Doctor has lost, but if she's sentient, then she lost a lot as well.

I thought the river comment could refer to S4, but then I thought about what a river in the forest does, it nourishes life. So maybe River Song is somehow related to that, to saving the Doctor's life in more than the usual adventure-esque sort of way...

[persiflage_1]

I absolutely ADORED the fact that the TARDIS stole the Doctor - utterly fantastic!!

Yes, that graveyard was soooo depressing...

Hmm, you maybe right about the r/River ref.

[haiden23]

Completely loved how Idris/TARDIS considered Rory "the pretty one". LOL.

[persiflage_1]

LOL Yes, too funny!

And too funny that the TARDIS apparently can't tell boys from girls! :P
