I just wanted to say... hello.

[chicafrom3]

POINT THE FIRST: I am so Neil Gaiman's target demographic. NEIL. I WANT TO MARRY YOUR BRAIIIIIIIN. I am so very much in love with how this felt both like a Doctor Who episode and like something Neil wrote and OMG I LOVE IT SO MUCH.

THE TARDIS

THE TARDIS

OMG THE TARDIS!!!!!!

!!!!!!!!!!!!

She calls him her thief and he calls her sexy and there is kissing and biting and pouncing and mocking of each other and they stole each other and THEIR LOVE IS SO TIMELESS and ohhhhhhhhh this episode hit my Doctor/TARDIS place so hard and so wonderfully I can't even come up with words except "Where is my thief" !!!! ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥

♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥

Yes it totally needed that many hearts



Slightly more sensibly:

The message cube from the War Games awww Neil is such a fanboy and I love it ♥♥♥

Amy and Rory have the Best Hugs Ever OMG

Speaking of which I know this episode was originally written for last season during Rory's nonexistence phase and yet I have absolutely no clue how that would have worked because he is so integral to the episode as aired. And provides so many lovely moments. And it would be so much a weaker episode without him.

And bunk beds.

AND AMY'S MENTAL IMAGE OF DELIGHT IS HER WEDDING DAY

GOD YOU GUYS AMY AND RORY SPENT A SIGNIFICANT CHUNK OF THIS EPISODE RUNNING AROUND THE TARDIS CORRIDORS and while I would have preferred that we spent some time in Other Rooms (library? bedrooms? ANYTHING) just seeing those corridors made me feel all warm and fuzzy and then the RTD-era console room and ohhhhh I am getting all giggly over it all over again as soon as I finish writing this post I am going to WATCH IT AGAIN

I thought I was done flailing over Doctor/TARDIS but I'M NOT. Amy ships them so much "Did you wish really hard?" and "Is my name Sexy?" "That is so your name" and "You're not exactly reliable! You didn't always take me where I wanted to go!" "No, but I always took you where you needed to be!" and how they stop in the middle of a high-risk situation to gush about how they can talk to each other and I HAVE SO MUCH FLAIL AND SQUEE

TAKE THAT, NON-DOCTOR/TARDIS SHIPPERS

THEY ARE THE ONE TRUE PAIRING

THAT IS THE OVERARCHING THEME OF MOFFAT'S TIME I HAVE ALREADY DECIDED

MOFFAT'S THESIS: THE DOCTOR AND THE TARDIS ARE OTP AND BETTER THAN YOU

Okay I'll stop now. For the moment.

The House's mindfuck on Amy was done really well. Very creepy, and the cuts between what Amy's perceiving and what Rory is work fantastically. So creepy. And I could LOL here about how they killed Rory again but I won't. Except for how I just did.

NEIL SHOULD WRITE EVERY EPISODE OF DOCTOR WHO

EXCEPT FOR THE EPISODES MOFF WRITES

THEY CAN TRADE OFF

HALF AND HALF

THEY ARE WRITING IT FOR ME!

...I want icons. AND FIC. AND EVERYTHING ELSE EVERRRR.

I'm going to go watch it again.

EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE! TARDIS/Doctor 4EVA!!!!! That was also essentially what I took away from this episode. Also how it was quintessentially Neil Gaiman and Doctor Who at the same time. Obviously those are two great tastes that taste great together!!!

Gaiman needs to write at least an episode a season forever more.

Like chocolate and peanut butter, only EVEN BETTER because it's Neil Gaiman and Doctor Who.

Gaiman needs to write at least an episode a season forever more.

HELL YES. Who do we have to talk to to make this happen?

There's gotta be something that would entice him back. Kittens? A female regeneration of the Doctor? (Since he's made that canon now.) The ability to do whatever he wants with a hypothetical Valeyard situation?

Maybe we should send him and the BBC cookies.
