this scene. this fucking scene. when i watched this the first time it really struck me how much 14 has grown. 10 wouldn’t have let that argument go. they would’ve kept pushing buttons until one of them stormed off. but 14 stops, cuts himself off mid-sentence and walks away to take a breath.

“no,” he says. no we’re not doing this. no it’s not my fault. no it’s not your fault. it’s a shitty situation and they’re both stressed and afraid.

and then he apologizes even though he didn’t start the argument and he didn’t spill the coffee. and it was definitely donna’s fault but sometimes being best friends means you let things go and you lie a little because your friendship is more important than being right

AND THEN HE COMFORTS HER. without her asking and without her initiating it.

#doctor who #dw spoilers #donna noble #14th doctor #wild blue yonder #i just ouuuuugh this scene makes me mentally iller #it’s such a small thing but yet speaks volumes to how the character has changed #compared to ‘doctor time lord YEAH!’ and ‘donna human NO!’
