Ive Been Trying To Figure Out Why Fifteen Hasnt Clicked For Me, And I Finally Figured It Out.

I’ve been trying to figure out why Fifteen hasn’t clicked for me, and I finally figured it out.

Fifteen isn’t autistic coded.

Which is fine, it’s not a deal breaker. It just means he doesn’t resonate for me personally the same way 9, 10, 11 and 12 did.

I know it sounds weird. But the Doctor has always been special to me cuz Chris, David, Matt, Peter and even Jodie all brought something to the character that made me feel seen.

Be it Ten’s hyperfixations with words or science-y things, to Eleven’s obvious ADHD snd hand gestures, to Twelve’s discomfort with socializing and inability to recognize faces and ages.

I know it’s early but Fifteen seems pretty neurotypical in comparison.

I don’t know if this makes sense but I’m just rambling.

I’ve seen a few people talk about the importance of the axe, but I wanted to put my take on it out there too.

Lisa watched her mom get axe murdered, and then her life was uprooted. She had nobody there for her (except taffy but she was misguided). And this person comes along, one who knows her better than anyone, and uses an axe to kill someone right in front of her.

Only this time, the axe is used to protect her. Something that destroyed her entire life is now being wielded by the one person she’s beginning to trust and feel seen and heard by.

And I don’t think it’s wrong for her to be thrilled and morbidly infatuated by this!!! Reclaiming and healing from trauma isn’t always pretty like everyone wants it to be, especially for young women and girls.

The axe becomes something to protect her and get revenge on those who hurt her. People who were supposed to be good to her, that she THOUGHT were good to her, but betrayed her.

The axe is something that she now wields.

She gets to reclaim it. She gets to trust someone again. She gets to feel loved, seen, and heard.

This movie is about reclaiming trauma as much as it is about a zombie love story!!!

You see this cute girl from across the barbecue, working the grill.

How do you open?

If no one’s going to talk about Goose’s absolutely adorable line of, “Come on, Bradley, sing with the family,” then I will!

We also need to discuss the way Goose literally kisses Carole’s shoulder as he’s in the middle of singing and playing the piano 🥺

This man drinks a hearty helping of loving his wife and son juice every morning and I am absolutely here for it ❤️
