73 Yards // The Legend of Ruby Sunday

Watching Boom and then immediately watching the final episode of Fallout feels so right? Like, both have such strong anti-capitalism messages about war and warfare in the future.

Spoilers below cut for Fallout 1x08 and Doctor Who 1x03

"Flashy lights play well in a show room. Modern warfare. Death by salesman." - The Doctor to Ruby.

And then hearing...

"Because, in our current societal configuration, which took shape without intentional guidance, we have friction [...] we have conflict, and we have war. And war? Well, war never changes."

While businessmen and women discuss experiments on people, all in the name of "creating a good society"? Making 122 vaults, many of which actively existed to see how fucked up they could make people behave.

And throughout Boom, there is constantly a "Thoughts and prayers" quote being said (which is the go to response for people in need, in wars, or in active hostile environments), a company literally making soldiers kill each other? (Which happened in vault 11)

Both of these shows are being streamed on massive corporations, DW on Disney+, which generated 8.4 BILLION last year (only increasing since it's initial launch, as it has removed many shows and movies from other sites). And Fallout on Amazon Prime, which had gotten 35.22 BILLION in revenue last year, as well has being known (practically globally) as a company that uses and abuses it's workers, but has made itself such a staple in so many places, that it is physically impossible to not support them in some way, and some can only use them.

But Doctor Who has always been a show about anti-war and anti-capitalism. To have such a show go to the hand of one of the biggest mega corporations is such a shame, it is incredible that they can have Moffat come back and basically flip the house of mouse off and shit in their toilet all while getting paid, and have that approved? awesome.

Fallout has always been about how war is horrible, and how fucked up humans are, giving a rare glimmer of hope towards something attainable, and Amazon Prime taking this media and making it a show? All while ignoring what the message is? Incredible. Perfect.

Doctor Who text posts

Alright, sooooo....... [If you're a Whovian who absolutely hates with a fiery passion the whole Timeless Child route that they're going with, I respect your opinion, and you may completely ignore this post because I happen to bring it up]

To any and all Whovians that have seen 15's first season over on Disney+. Just out of curiosities sake, who do you think might be Ruby's mom? I know we'll get more and more clues to how it happens to be if it does happen to be someone we know, but my top 3 theory is:

Susan. If she's alive, that is. He did make a point that they're gone (since the Master Cybermaned them), but I don't remember all of them being Cybermaned.

A pre-Hartnell regeneration of the Doctor possibly prior to Fugitive Doctor. Considering what happened between 13 and Fugitive, that would be a real nasty mess. More so adding a child to mix.

A member of the Sisterhood of Karn. I know we haven't seen them since 12, but I also don't remember hearing whether or not they're gone. This one may or may not be my favorite one I've thought of since I really like the Sisterhood, but that's besides the point.

[As I was writing this, I just realized I had a fourth idea: she could very likely be the child of The One Who Waits!! That's what The One Who Waits has been waiting for!! Wait..... No!!!!!!!!!!!!! The One Who Waits is actually the Doctor's bio parent and Ruby was a random child from the Doctor's original world that The One Who Waits used as a ploy just to meet the child they were separated from!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!]

Finally somebody says it

Holds casual Dr who fans by the shoulders. Hey did you know that the doctor isn’t a usually a good person with other people’s interests at heart? Did you know that? Did you know they do terrible things for that they believe to be the greater good all the time? That they aren’t a good person?????

they truly are one of the prettiest doctor and companion duos like… omg 🥺💕

Hello. SPOILERS ahead for Doctor Who Christmas special.

Why did the doctor not approach the person who left Ruby at the church. They could have. Before I get into that I have to say something else I noticed. When the Doctor first exited the TARDIS the person was only a few yards away. Then the Doctor goes to rescue Ruby which probably took roughly 5 minutes and when back at the TARDIS the person is still about the same distance away. I could be wrong because of camera angles but I think the person stopped to watch the fight between the doctor and the goblins. It was big and loud. This feeds into one of my theories. Just had to point it out.

I see a lot of people talking about Ruby being related to the Doctor in some way and I am here for that. She does look like Jenny and like Clara and has so many similarities to Rose. She could also be related to River but I don’t really see that. With the previous statement about the distance thing, it could be something like that. I know Rose is in a different dimension so what if Ruby was dropped off to keep her safe from danger in that dimension. It also to be noted that she would have been dropped off before Rose and the Doctor met. The Jenny thing works better here. The lack of results of the DNA test could mean that the Doctor erased Rose from the record or with River or Jenny they don’t really exist on paper at that time. Davina could also be lying. M(r)s Flood is also an option. She definitely knows more than she let on.

The storyline about Ruby could also be to mirror the Doctor’s and about having no record of where they are from.

Onto the Doctor. I have a few theories to explain the Doctor’s actions. First it must be said that the doctor does have a Time Machine and could have gone and found out. There was time.

Didn’t think about finding out. Just wants to make sure Ruby was alright. The Doctor does hesitate but gets in the TARDIS anyway.

Didn’t want to change the future. What would change by approaching the person.

Didn’t know if Ruby would want that. The Doctor has been following Ruby, but not at the moments about Ruby finding her heritage. Ruby hasn’t communicated that to the Doctor so it could be not wanting to invade privacy. The Doctor also doesn’t to cross a boundary.

The Doctor already knows who it is.

The Doctor just found out about being adopted. And about the not good mother figure and doesn’t know if they are good.

Found Family. The Doctor has (or had) a lot of chosen family. Ruby has an amazing family already.

These are just theories. Inspired by others posts and my analysis of the situation. Let me know if I missed something.

Happy Doctor Who Special Day💜💙📦
