The Eleventh Doctor - Tumblr Posts
I said you were the most beautiful thing I had ever know.
And then you stole me. And I stole you.
I know where I got this face, and I know what it’s for. To remind me. To hold me to the mark.

“We’re all stories, in the end. Just make it a good one, eh? Because it was, you know, it was the best: a daft old man, who stole a magic box and ran away…Oh, you’ll dream about that box…Big and little at the same time, brand-new and ancient, and the bluest blue, ever.”

DOCTOR AND AMY + the apple
he was lonely. she wanted the world
The Doctor starts out his journey loving something he will end up hating. An apple -> shown to represent 1) a craving 2) freshness). This instance serves as a suitable metaphor for a perspective of a companion he will inevitably end up leaving. In Amy Pond's final episode her daughter, River Song, advises her to never let (the Doctor) see the damage which can easily be read as an instruction against growing old. Amy is accused of having noticable lines on her eyes in the same episode. This is the episode in which she dies.
Amelia Pond starts out hating something she will end up loving. It is revealed that she, unlike the Doctor, used to hate apples. This was before her mother put faces on them, turning dislike into a symbol of love. Amy is shown to resent the idea of marriage. She is later praised for her role as a wife and a mother.
An apple, craving that is, for the Doctor equals the desire to be adored and never lonely. For Amy, an apple would reflect her wish to be free and see the world. The Doctor ends his run without Amy, his companion and fulfilment of his desire. What he has left is his ability to travel. Amy ends her run stuck in the past, unable to see the stars in a way she was shown possible. Alas, she is married and therefore isn't alone. For this she is crowned The Loving Wife. One could say the narrative implies this is what makes her worthy of being adored, a reason the Doctor lists while explaining why he chose Amy as a companion. Ultimately, both characters are left with the other's wish as though the story had a hard time telling them apart and therefore assigned them the other's ending on accident.
WHAT DO WE WANT
To travel through space and time with the doctor!
WHEN ARE WE GETTiNG IT
*crying* NEVER!
My family is always like, “oh, when are you going to end your little doctor who obsession?” Like never Carol, do you know how much there is to obsess over? 13 new who seasons, 26 classic who seasons, at least 15 books for every doctor, comic books, and don’t forget connected to doctor who but not really is the Sarah Jane smith adventures and torchwood. I’m going to be dead by the time I’m done obsessing over it.
Honestly, I think Rose Tyler’s theme song is She Wolf
Doctor who is a flurry of emotions, one moment you are laughing at something ridiculous happening, and then suddenly you are crying over your favorite character dying. I love it.
please don’t forget me and all the things we did. please.
the only thing that hurt more than losing you is knowing that you did nothing to stop me
