DW 4x13 Journey's End

[magicallaw]

So yeah, I really need to rewatch that in order to actually process it properly, but I do have this to say:

1. THE DOCTORDONNA FTW. Who else wants blue!Doctor/brown!Doctor/DoctorDonna fic?

2. Um, that wasn't a happy ending for D/R shippers, I don't care what people tell me.

3. K-FUCKING-9, BITCHES. *does happy dance*

4. JACK/MARTHA WITH HAND HOLDING AND BONUS MICKEY SDLGKJSD;LKF\NSDLKNFLK

5. The hugging in the TARDIS was the most brilliant thing ever and when I can, I'm going to cap the proof of my brand new OTP and my OT3 come to think of it. EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

6. When the Doctor walks into the kitchen to say goodbye to Donna... NO FUCKING WORDS. And that is all I can say on the matter for now because, holy shit, that was so painful.

ETA: From browsing the flist and such, am I the only person in fandom who enjoyed that?

I would say I enjoyed it for the most part. The companion stuff were the bits that made it for me - Rose saying Martha was good during the Osterhagen stuff, the threefold man of Caan's prediction being Brown Ten, Blue Ten and Donna, everying hugging everyone in the TARDIS after Earth was returned, and definitely Jack and Martha walking away from Ten hand-in-hand (I have shipped them so VERY heartily since Utopia), plus yay for Mickey being back in our universe and probably joining TW with Martha!

And yes, oh YES, on your #6. I was wobbling a bit there at the end with that. Donna came so far, and was so very very awesome, and became perhaps the most important companion because she was a freaking TIME LORD and 1/3 Doctor... and then, it's all gone, and she's shouty, careless pre-Runaway Bride Donna again. SO SAD.

And I agree about the ending with Brown Ten/Blue Ten/Rose not being happy. None of them looked okay with what was happening, but I think for Rose and human Ten at least, it might turn out okay. I feel happy for Rose. Do NOT ask me why, I'm at a loss. But I feel glad for her, because I've long thought that Ten loved her but knew his duty as a Time Lord was more important, so he held back. Now here's a human Ten that has no such duty, and can give her that romantic side to himself. It's certainly not perfect, and it's more than a bit twisted, and it's definitely heartbreaking for our Tet.

But it's weird, because technically the was four-fold for a minute because Jenny is really just a recalibration of him. At the moment he's three-fold because of him, human!Ten and Jenny.

I kept wondering if they'd forgotten that.
