Doctor Who: Children in Need Preview 2009

[orange_crushed]

I HAVE THOUGHTS.

And when I say thoughts, I mean macros. But they are below the cut. Along with an embed, you know, just in case. Major spoilers for both "Children in Need" and "The Waters of Mars" below the cut.

I JUST HAVE NO ACTUAL THOUGHTS RIGHT NOW.

OF COURSE YOU HAVE TO GO ON VACATION AFTER CAUSING SOMEONE'S SUICIDE. DID YOU NOT READ THE GUIDE TO LOSING YOUR MIND AND NOT CARING?

WHY RUSSELL? WHY? THAT LINE ABOUT QUEEN BESS BROUGHT NOTHING TO THE SCENE/EPISODE. IT WAS THROWAWAY AND POINTLESS EXCEPT IT MANAGED TO PISS ME OFF BEYOND REASON.

OKAY THE DOCTOR/ROSE WERE PLATONIC? FINE. JUST KEEP HIM PLATONIC WITH OTHERS, THANKS.

BRB LOLING FOREVER

STILL LOLING
THIS MAY TAKE A WHILE.

Same here, I can't help but grin like a certain chesire cat whenever I recall this teaser, which is actually every few minutes and I watched it yesterday!!!

[sensiblecat.livejournal.com]

Oh, I'm so glad it isn't just me!

[orange-crushed.livejournal.com]

IT ISN'T.

D:

[asahifirsa.livejournal.com]

I actually took this as proof, that yes, the Doctor does have a sex life, even if it's of screen. And I'm sure he had one with Rose :)

[intrikate88.livejournal.com]

THAT PRETTY MUCH SAYS IT ALL.

Also I desperately want to see the episode with Queen Bess, omfg.

[orange-crushed.livejournal.com]

I would love to see awkward! Doctor being rubbish at his own wedding. My inner stickler is like "HOW COULD HE MARRY HER HE'S NOT ROYAL PLUS THAT NEVER HAPPENED" and the rest of me is like EAT THE CRAZY CAKE, EAT IT, AND GO CRAZY.

[intrikate88.livejournal.com]

WE ARE DOWN THE RABBIT HOLE NOW. It was probably a sekrit wedding and the reception had a croquet game played with flamingos. Oh wait though. So he's not crossing timelines and violating causality because Queen Elizabeth was already trying to shoot him in Shakespeare Code, so presumably its a closed loop. HRM. LET US JUST KEEP EATING CRAZY CAKE.

BWAH!!!

[orange-crushed.livejournal.com]

That icon never fails to make me giggle, ilu.

YOUR MACROS, HOWEVER, ARE ACE.

[mylittlepwny.livejournal.com]

MARRIAGE? ALLISON? SLUTTY QUEENS?
EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS IS SO GROSS I CAN'T EVEN.

This bus from CRAZYtown has detoured into UNCOOLtown, and I am well unsatisfied with the trip.

Re: YOUR MACROS, HOWEVER, ARE ACE.

[orange-crushed.livejournal.com]

HE NAMED IT ALLISON

HE SHOULD BE WEARING A GOLD PLASTIC CROWN AND BOMPING PEOPLE ON THE HEAD WITH A GLITTER SCEPTER FROM CLAIRE'S. HE IS THAT FAR GONE.

I think this is officially our call to action to photoshop increasingly more ridiculous things onto Ten. Like top hats and bling and cigars. I really don't know what to think.

Re: YOUR MACROS, HOWEVER, ARE ACE.

[mylittlepwny.livejournal.com]

LOL. CLAIRE'S IS OFFICIALLY HIS NEW FAVORITE LITTLE SHOP. HE WILL GATE CRASH EVERY SINGLE SESSION OF PARLIAMENT UNTIL THE VOTE TO PUT ONE IN ALL HOSPITALS IS UNANIMOUS.

The crazy is totes amusing, yeah, but all it's doing is making me want to go to badwolfsermon and worship at the alter of DROSE and our HOLY MOLY MACROS until THE END OF TIME.
puns, lolz.

Re: YOUR MACROS, HOWEVER, ARE ACE.

[aimeekitty.livejournal.com]

why have you not photoshopped this yet.

[larissa-j.livejournal.com]

THIS IS EXACTLY HOW IT HAPPENED.

I bet he tries to make out with an OOD before he leaves.

[orange-crushed.livejournal.com]

HOT OOD ACTION

THE DOCTOR IS GOING INTERSPECIES IN A BIG WAY

...AND I'M LOSING MY MIND.

[jeonggam.livejournal.com]

LOL.

IMAGINE ALL THE FUN ONE COULD HAVE WITH ALL THOSE FACE-TENTACLES.

[larissa-j.livejournal.com]

IT'S HILARIOUS THAT HE GETS MARRIED WHILE CRAZY. PROBABLY FIGURED IT WAS THE BEST TIME TO GET THE ENTIRE RIVER THING OVER WITH.

[asahifirsa.livejournal.com]

Where does it ever say that they were married? I actually thing the quote above could either refer to Queen Elizabeth or some kind of Las Vegas style wedding, jump to the next topic, oh Queen Bess!

[ashbet]

I took them as two separate things, personally. After all, he HAD to get married at some point, because River Song claimed that he did. Unless she'd been taking the crazy pills too ;)

BUT SERIOUSLY BEST MACROS EVER OMGWHEEEE!!!!

-- A :D

[larissa-j.livejournal.com]

This should be blinking,

HOT OOD ACTION


Ahhh better.

[skywaterblue.livejournal.com]

HE DOES DRUGS WITH THE OOD AND NO ONE BUT ME HAS NOTICED THE DRUGS.

I thought it was fucking rad. OM NOM crazy cake! "Allison" the Galaxy is where they worship the Pixies, right?

[thelittlespy.livejournal.com]

That made me make the facial expression equivalent of "....." I think I'm still making it now. I kind of can't stop.

Obviously, the next step after balls to the wall craziness is...shades and a lei. He looks like he's going to Beach Bash at my high school.

While on vacation, he totally sent everyone he knows postcards of, like, dogs and cats in swimming suits on the beach with captions like "Beach Bums!" and "Vacation is Ruff!", Y/Y?

LOL.

I just had to say you're awesome for that.

[thelittlespy.livejournal.com]

I'm buying a ticket on your "just kidding, guys!" train as laid out below, because I don't wanna live in a world without the Doctor and Rose and cake.

I still reserve the right, however, to imagine Jack getting a novelty postcard and being all, "MEANWHILE, EVERYONE I LOVE JUST DIED, YOU A-HOLE. THANKS." (At which time Ten would tell him to take a chill pill and invite him to participate in the limbo contest.)

[majorenglishesq.livejournal.com]

What. TheeverlovingFUCK, Doctor?

So, what am I supposed to get from this? That Crazy PowerTrip Time Lord equals Handsome Bully in Candy Shop? That is the best way I can describe this vibe I'm getting.

I.

I don't even know.

Jesus, take the wheel.

[editrx.livejournal.com]

He is going to nom on an Ood head. He is. WE KNOW THIS.

[allhisengines.livejournal.com]

HAHAHA THAT OOD WAS SO UNIMPRESSED WITH HIM AND HIS BEEPING TARDIS.

[thunderemerald.livejournal.com]

I just absofuckinglutely adore you. I have nothing to say except for I AM LINKING TO THIS.

[danicarip.livejournal.com]

Sorry for the unrelated comment, but a while back you reviewed one of my stories ( http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5407038/1/Sunlight ) and after a few months of trying and failing to work out the FF reply system, I decided just to thank you here.

So, thanks! :D I am over the moon that you enjoyed it (I'll bring you back some moondust, or maybe one of the golfballs), and also quite chuffed that you noticed Donna's little moment. Cheers!

[glorious-clio.livejournal.com]

You've captured many of my thoughts. I hate RTD. The Doctor feels so out of character here, because he's so desperate an angry, which usually he's so emo and self-sacrificing. It breaks my brain and makes me angry.

Thank you for the lovely lovely macros. :D

[goldy-dollar.livejournal.com]

LOL LOL OMFG CRAZY TEN. EVERYTHING YOU DO IS SO DELIGHTFULLY UNEXPECTED YET ENTERTAINING.

I have no idea what he'll do next and I kind of love it.

[araceli-maura.livejournal.com]

LOL Oh god I somehow horribly became RTD's target audience because it actually made me laugh? And I didn't really think about it because I was too busy thinking YAY DOCTOR WHO YAAAAY like a three year old?

Sometimes I hate myself.

Also, I'm living in the alt!universe where he was just kidding. Which is a fantastic universe also known as DenialLand because I can and because it's way happier here where Rose and the Doctor still have awesome adventures and have never split up but instead make out all the time and eat cake and have lots of intergalatic lolz over RTD's batshit plots and how the story is quickly going from interesting into WTF-Land which is never an awesome place to be because there's no Doctor/Rose or cake.

Soo I mean, now that I've gotten over my initial two year old reaction to seeing another Doctor Who clip like it's the best Halloween candy in my bag, I think that was a pretty lame immediate follow up to the most intense and serious episode of all time also known as the Waters of Mars. I mean, I kind of get where he was going with it like--we need to slow this crazy train shit down a little and lighten up but dude, you're kind of the one who put us on that train in the first place and gave us the ticket and was all JOIN THE PARTY, LOL. IT'S GONNA BE A ROCKIN TIME. So it's kind of late to pull the brake switch now dude.

Also my crazy train analogy totally went too far there but I feel it was justified in all this ridiculousness.

So what I'm trying to say is I think the entire thing was meant as a giant joke from the Doctor and he didn't actually do any of that but was trying to somehow psych himself into being how he used to be which was to crack jokes all the time and pretend like everything was fine when really on the inside he's freaking the fuck out and like collapsing the walls of reality by being a total selfish twat.

Oh god this show has made me just as crazy as Ten. That can't be a good thing.

[danicarip.livejournal.com]

Golly. That he's making it all up never even occurred to me, but it makes sense! Brava :D

But...if he didn't go to a tourist beach, then...

Egads. That lei and straw hat came straight out of his giant "potential iconic outfit" wardrobe, didn't it? Eleven did better than I thought xD

[christyj12.livejournal.com]

Hi, I'm a creepy lurker who lurks (I drop by every once in a while to read your fic, which is AMAZING, btw) and I am just....overwhelmed. Things have turned out exactly like they did in your last fic, "Lazarus." He's run away to hide himself in nonsense and crazy and fun to cover up just how very, very wrong things have gone.

Someone above described it as losing your mind and not caring, which is PERFECT, because he's not caring on purpose. But deep down he knows that everything is all going to shit veryverysoon, and omg...!! I'm so scared of what the hell is gonna go down when all that denial breaks loose!!1! [/crazy flailing].

D: D: D:

[the-spin.livejournal.com]

OMG WHY IS CHILDREN IN NEED DOING THIS TO ME OMG OMG OMG I AM SO FULL OF FLAIL I CAN'T EVEN.

I just, like, I love slightly power-mad crazy Ten more than anything and his song is ending and oh my god OH MY GOD are the time lords coming back again I HAVE CHILLS AND WILL THERE BE FUNNY HATS???? I DONT KNOW THIS IS ALL TOO MUCH FOR MY HEART. HE'S CRAZY AND GONNA DIE AND YET STILL IS MAKING AUTOMATIC TARDIS LOCK JOKES AND BEING SAD WHEN THE OOD DON'T THINK HE'S HILARIOUS, WHY DO I LOVE THIS SO MUCH??????

[verdant_fire]

THIS FINALE IS GOING TO BLOW MY MIND, ISN'T IT. Here I am still reeling from the fatalistic glory of WoM, and then we get the insanity of this preview, which I'm sure only serves to get us off-guard before our hearts are ripped out. I love that crazy!Ten's response to the end of Life, the Universe, and Everything is to deny everything and party. And marry/deflower the Virgin Queen. The Ten/Rose part of me is all "BOO YOU WHORE" but the rest of me finds it hilarious. I think I will choose to believe that Ten had one too many banana daiquiris, and things went downhill from there. DUI in a TARDIS, can you imagine? I bet he always wanted to wear one of those neck ruffs.

LOL @ "Like a car." Oh, Tennant, I'm going to miss you. Also, mad props to Paul Kasey, because I'm sure that making an Ood look amusingly unimpressed is a lot harder than it seems.

So this is what he does when he doesn't have a companion. 0__0
