Not To Hot Take After Pulling A Sickie All-nighter Again But I Do Think Doctor/Donna Would Be A More

not to hot take after pulling a sickie all-nighter again but i do think Doctor/Donna would be a more popular pairing if CTate was and had been a thin 20 to 30 year old. like, i feel like there's some unconscious dismissals happening thanks to her not fitting an expect 'type'

yeah yea 'best mates' and 'siblings energy' are valid reasons not to ship it, but like.... I shipped rose/nine like crazy, the chemistry was so good, but I then felt like ten/rose had 'best mates' and 'siblings' energy, yet the default reading of ten/rose is romantic while the default reading of Donna (and Martha lbr) got set to 'that's his FRIEND, it's never romantic' with a lot more people just. never bothering to look at it from another angle or try to see how anyone could want to see them together.

NO NO WAIT. If one of them accidentally does something couple-y with no audience they are subjected to merciless teasing from the other. Occasionally the best way to tease is to act all couple-y right back, because why do they get flustered by it? Because we are totally platonic right? How silly. Great ammunition for the next battle of wits between two completely platonic best mates.

The thing about romantic Tendonna is that it's not that I don't think it's impossible and also do what u want for shipping. I DO however think it's impossible that they would actually get together as a couple because they're both the most horrifically stubborn and dedicated to the bit people in the universe. They would be playing attraction chicken and first one to even float the idea of changing their relationship to something non platonic loses. Where a normal couple would have mutual pining they have mutual spite 💖.
