What use are emotions if you will not save the woman you love?

We do NOT give Jackie Tyler and Mickey Smith their props for their character growth in the Parting of the Ways. Rose is absolutely amazing, an absolute ferocious beacon of hope and stubbornness and bravery in the finale, the absolute reason why the Doctor lives and the world is saved and an equal hero to Nine, but she has a moment of doubt. A moment of hesitancy.

And Mickey Smith and Jackie Tyler step in and help her save the day. Both Mickey and Jackie give up on their idea of Rose and their hatred of the Doctor and help her pull open the TARDIS. Even within this one episode we see them struggle with their feelings and decide to put them aside and help do this because Rose is right- this is a better way of living your life.

Doctor Who is about ordinary people making extraordinary decisions and making themselves extraordinary and this doesn't just apply to official companions (who I love with all my might)- it applies to the people they love, too. We see it over and over again in Davies' era, with Jackie and Mickey and Sylvia and Tish and Wilfred and Francine and Harriet Jones and every one-off character as well, from Lynda-with-a-Y to Jabe to Gwyneth to Novice Hame to McDonnell to Sally to Chantho to Nancy to all the rest.

Doctor Who is at its strongest when the story is focused on the strength of the bleeding, beating heart of humanity (and character in general, in its non-humans), when the characters drive the story, when at the end of the day you understand why, for all of the world's flaws, the Doctor comes back over and over again because of people like this- not just his companions, but the Jackies and Mickeys and all the rest of the world.

it’s been a while since I did smth in this style

No I will not elaborate on this.

@whumpril Day 16: Coughing Fit

“Take this,” Michael ordered as he pushed a candy into Elizabeth’s hand, brusque in a way that would usually have her raring to defy him. Who did he think he was to order her around? Once he added, “It’ll help the sore throat,” however, she had to obey. She hadn’t expected the smoke to coat her mouth in a taste like cottony rot; candy had to make it better.

The jolly rancher stuck to her dry tongue, inciting a gag and then another chain of rattling coughs. Michael thumped her back harder than necessary.

“How many times have I told you to keep out of my stuff? Cigs are bad for you, Liz.”

“T-Then why do you have them?” she croaked, eyes watering as she hugged her sides.

“…Good question.” One he obviously wasn’t prepared to answer, as he merely stomped out the stolen cigarette and kept patting her back.

*Alex (from the interview) talking about Stan and Ford out at sea* “I can kinda write stories about them as a duo forever, because you can always excuse them both getting hyped on a bad idea for their own reasons, and then you can always come up with a reason for them to disagree about it, and it’s always sweet to see them come together again, because they’re so full of themselves but they are also so damaged they desperately need each other.”

@whumpril Day 15: Mind Games

“Here,” Todd said shortly, making Alice jump as he tossed an ice pack at her. It was the first time he’d spoken to her since this morning, since their breakfast had ended with his palm stinging against her cheek. As she fumbled the ice into place, he prodded impatiently, “Well? What do you say when someone does you a favor?”

“T-Thank you.”

“Right.” Running an agitated hand through his hair, he huffed. “See, if you’d said that this morning, this wouldn’t have happened. I worked too hard on that meal for you to be so ungrateful. ‘Not hungry’, tch. That’s not my fault, is it?”

Numbly Alice shook her head. She should have just been a good girl and put up with the burnt bits.

“Anybody would be pissed after all that so…” Todd gestured vaguely at her face. “Y’know, that was kind of on you. Understand?”

“Yes, Daddy…I’m sorry.”
