THE STAR BEAST
Is about the RTD era. It’s set in dimly lit London streets. The Doctor avoids going to UNIT directly. Queer identity is at the center of it. The Metacrisis DoctorDonna comes back. He meets a woman named Rose. The plot is moved by strange unexplained coincidences. The Shadow Proclamation is invoked. There’s a big obvious spaceship crash that wasn’t an accident like in Aliens of London. There’s alien law enforcement hunting a real villain like smith and Jones. The Doctor is separated from Donna by a clear barrier like he is from Wilf in end of time. But instead of losing her, he gets her back. She remembers him. Journey’s End is undone.
WILD BLUE YONDER
Is about the Chibnall era. We’re separated from the TARDIS like in Ghost Monument, facing creatures beyond our universe like in It takes you away, Can you Hear me? And Flux. We’re on a spaceship nearly outside of the universe, failing to get as far as Tecteun wanted to go. We’re reminded the Doctor isn’t from this universe. Of the destruction of the Flux that the Doctor failed to stop. And the Doctor refuses to let Donna in, to tell her how badly this is affecting him, just like 13 didn’t let Yaz in. He even almost chooses the wrong Donna near the end. In a different way, 13 also didn’t choose Yaz.
We’re scratching the surface of the Doctor’s trauma but the Flux isn’t the real problem. She’d been keeping her companions out since before that. Why? What happened to the doctor in between Donna and the flux?
THE GIGGLE
Is about the Moffat era. There’s great emphasis on how old the Doctor is, that is the same old Doctor we met in the 60s. We’re reminded how the Doctor lost Amy, Clara and Bill, and the Doctor’s focus is on protecting Donna and Mel over the actual planetary stakes. Time is rewritten. There’s a too-good-to-be-true happy ending. There’s a lot going on.
The Doctor hasn’t stopped moving since losing Bill. Really, he hasn’t stopped since long before then. But the Bi-generation gives him a way to stop without depriving the universe of the Doctor. Amy, Bill, and Clara didn’t just die. They got second chances at life, with their own chosen companions (Rory, Heather and Me) . And at the end of his short journey, 14 gets that same fate. He dies, but finally gets a happy, restful life. Meanwhile 15, already feeling the benefits of his past self’s rest, journeys on.

People can hate on Chibnall's era all they want and while it's not without it's problems I will always defend it if ONLY for it's interpretation of gender in the change from 12 to 13.
I remember being so excited for Jodie, but also so scared as to how they were going to handle her characterization as the Doctor. While Moffat did okay with Missy in the end, her original introduction was dripping with stereotypes and changes in personality which in universe boiled down to she's a girl now lol. Because of this I feared the introduction of a hyperfeminine Doctor, reinforcing sexist stereotypes that men and women are fundamentally different in some ineffable way. I feared jokes about boobs and hair, I feared a weak Doctor who had to be saved by male companions, I worried there would be a lack of personality entirely, with Chibnall trying to play it safe and make her just a blank slate. Or that she would be a rehash of an old Doctor but GIRLY with nothing really distinct to her personality beyond that.
I did not at all expect what we got. Even if the writing is in general lower standards than us fans had come to expect, Chibnall's handling of the Doctor's sudden gender change is phenomenal and I will explain why.
Top 13th Doctor gender moments:
It is so obvious that from the Doctor's point of view, she hasn't really changed. She still perceives herself the same way and finds it hard to adjust to a view of herself as a woman and often uses masculine words to describe herself out of habit. She doesn't dislike being a woman! She's just forgetful! Her regeneration is not special because of the gender change, that's just a quirk alongside the other changes every Doctor goes through when they regenerate
The way she still dresses in a distinctly Doctorish way, and leans towards flamboyant but practical masculine outfits like her suit in Spyfall in contrast to Yaz's more feminine presentation in the same situations. (Yaz isn't even that feminine either. But her dresses and blouses compared to the Doctor really stand out.)
I love how the Doctor's gender doesn't change anything about her, only how other's view her. And mostly people still treat her with respect and as an authority figure. I feel like chibnall struck a good balance between not acknowledging the gender change at all vs hitting us over the head with it. There are episodes where her being a woman is detrimental and she expresses annoyance, there are others where it causes confusion, and there's some where it opens her up to new experiences like the wedding party with Yaz's nan! But ultimately it doesn't make a difference in the Doctor's day to day
The introduction of the Fugitive Doctor as a previous regeneration but also as a female doctor with a distinct personality from thirteen! We got a multi doctor story with two badass female doctors years before it should have been possible! I hate the timeless child thing but the fugitive doctor is my beloved. Props to Chibnall for seeing the hate and people going oooh but the doctor has always been a man and responding by going nope she's been a woman before and a black woman too fuck you. actually iconic. #Season6B btw. if you even care
Idk i just think Jodie really captured the Doctor really well, while still having a unique twist on it and her portrayal really reads as a genderfluid alien in a feminine body. Like oh cool this is new but ultimately it dont matter she still the doctor

There’s something so heartbreaking about watching your favourite parts of a tv show, the parts that you have loved for years and found so much joy in, being misunderstood, forgotten and erased by it’s predecessors.
13’s beautiful TARDIS interior, and sonic screwdriver erased to make way for nostalgia.
13’s clothes, her entire outfit, burnt up never to be seen again without any explanation.
Yaz, who 13 was in love with, who she wanted to tell everything to and spend the rest of her days with, not even mentioned - not even hinted at!
13’s character, her core personality traits and storyline reduced to ‘woman Doctor’ and fundamentally misunderstood!
13’s fam, the family that she found and built, not even mentioned or reminisced about!
I’m glad that the Timeless Child wasn’t erased, but I feel like so much else was that RTD didn’t properly watch 13’s era. It’s like he was given a summary and only took the parts that he thought was interesting.
13’s memory deserves better! She deserves to have passed on the baton to Ncuti’s Doctor, to have him running around high on regeneration energy while wearing her outfit! To use her sonic for an episode before choosing to make his own!
13 deserves to be remembered as a Doctor who was loved dearly by her companions and fans, as a Doctor who went through so much tragedy right from the start and struggled to deal with that, but still managed to face down her foes! As a someone who was optimistic and kind, but could also be cruel and harsh when needed! She was complicated, she went through so much, I love her and she will always be my Doctor.
She deserves to be remembered as more than ‘woman Doctor’, because she was so much more than that.

flux adjacent fic recs
in media res by wreckageofstars (3k, 1 chapter, gen) summary: “Well,” she said. “Now you know what the mattress is for.” Dan shifted. “And the trampoline?” “Best not ask about the trampoline.” //I think this is probably the first Dan pov fic I ever read, and it’s absolutely brilliant. This author gets the character voices down so perfectly it’s unreal, and the whole thing is just so wonderful to see from Dan’s outsider perspective. It’s set in the immediate aftermath of Once, Upon Time, and it does a fantastic job of exploring the impact of what happened in that episode – both from a whump perspective and an emotional one. Angsty, but also funny in the worst kind of way – someone please go give Yaz a break, she REALLY needs one. Anyway, it’s great, everyone go read it right now.
Hearts of Stone by weirdpug (previously xhonia) (1k, 1 chapter, thoschei) summary: The Doctor loses herself. The Master finds her. //Ohhh this one this one, it’s SO awesome – it’s one of those fics that does really cool things with the formatting? Which works great here, because it’s a weeping angel!13 fic and wow, wow! Extremely awesome indeed, and just beautifully written – the prose is just so full of character, even when the Doctor is losing herself and it’s so well done.
Divination by WalkerLister (6k, 1 chapter, gen) summary: “There was a name for someone similar to me once. They called them the Valeyard. You can call me that, if you like. I quite like it, it’s suitably eerie. Little bit of drama never hurt anyone.” //Right, so we all remember what happened when War of the Sontarans aired…we got that ‘next time’ trailer of Once Upon Time…and all collectively lost our minds over the inverted dark coat. Since then, I feel like everyone has been finding really creative ways to get it into fanfics, and this is a wonderful example. And, well, if the promise of dark coat!13 wasn’t enough, this fic is just an absolutely fascinating look at the concept of the Valeyard in the context of the fobwatch from Flux, but focused on Yaz and her relationship with/perception of the Doctor. It’s such a good concept and so so wonderfully done! (also, if you’re a fan of thasmin, this author has a ton of stuff, so definitely go check it all out! For the less thasmin-inclined folks, I highly recommend Ipesity, which is one of my favourite post-TTC fics)
three points where two lines meet by Ymae (4k, 1 chapter, gen) summary: The Doctor tries to get those memories back, and breaks herself, bit by bit. //Oh man. This fic. I still remember when this one first posted and hoooooo boy, it is a hell of a gut-punch and absolutely wrenched my heart right out of my chest but HHHHHHHHH wow!! WOW. Genuinely, I think this fic rewrote my brain a little bit. It's set in the immediate aftermath of Once, Upon Time where the Doctor makes some very unwise decisions about trying to tug at her timeline and it's absolutely incredible. Very angsty, very whumpy, and full of a HUGE amount of the Doctor messing with timelines and very visceral, tangible descriptions of her timesense. It is such a treat, guys. And if you like this one and want something with similar vibes, I also highly recommend this post-flux fic by the same author!
Sheer Poetry! by Papapaldi (57k, 5 chapters, gen) summary: Trapped within her own mind, the Doctor travels through an impossible house, with everyone she has ever been locked inside. Her body is an unresponsive, useless bag of flesh somewhere far and away in reality. The part of her brain that she knows, where her past resides, sits somewhere else entirely within the old machine. The Ravagers eat, buried memories beckon, and the Doctor's faith is shaken to its core. She will never be the same – but that's what she's all about, right? Incredible change. //oh my days. THIS FIC, guys - look, I see the word count, I know, I know. This fic is a serious undertaking, but like so many things in life it is soooooo so worth it. Bucket loads of absolutely ASTOUNDING imagery, more references to Lungbarrow and Timewyrm Revelation than you can shake a stick at, BUT you don't need to have read those stories at all to enjoy this absolutely fantastic saga (put it like this - I've not read those books, and I had a whale of a time). Incredibly poetic, a little nonsensical in the best kind of way (it IS a mindscape fic) but startlingly funny and so beautifully in character. I laughed, I cried. This fic is just a love letter to everything Doctor Who, weaving all of canon into this beautiful, cohesive tapestry. I highly recommend. (and, if you're hungry for more and want tpotd content, there's an excellent sequel as well)
every step i choose to take (begins to set the world aflame) by SleepyMaddy (12k, 1 chapter, thoschei) summary: In a spaceport lost in a remote quadrant of interstellar space, a Doctor who doesn’t know herself anymore runs into a Master who doesn’t know himself yet // Ok so the sheer concept of this one ALONE is absolutely brilliant – the Doctor, escaping from the Division and half out of her head, bumps into the Master, who’s not long regenerated from Missy. And, guys. It’s fascinating. Seeing the Master right at the start, before he finds out everything that comes to define him in this era, and then having him meet a version of the Doctor who is quite a lot further along than him and just completely out of it? It’s like catnip to me, guys. And, of course, it’s all helped by the fact that the writing is absolutely brilliant – the characters are just absolutely spot on, which is quite an incredible feat seeing as they are both in very different places to where we see them in the show, yet they still manage to ring true throughout the whole thing. And also the mindscape imagery? The psychic whump? The emotional gut-punch that is the entire fic? Absolutely unparalleled. (also, if you’re a spydoc fan? Just help yourself out and read this author’s entire set of works, because it’s all fantastic)
see me bare my teeth for you by picnokinesis (16k, 1 chapter, gen) summary: “Do you know your mission?” //This is a bit of a cheeky self-rec, but, in my defence, if you're looking for flux fics, then I think you'll enjoy this one. I wrote it in the week after Village of the Angels aired, and it's basically all my thoughts and theories about what was going to happen in Survivors of the Flux thrown into a 16k oneshot. I was...mostly wrong HAHA but I’m still really proud of it. If you like division!doctor, then this one is for you
we're only dreaming (tell me who i am) by SpaceBetweenGalaxies (2k, 1 chapter, gen) summary: more the-memory-house-is-Lungbarrow clowning //ok, so if you were like me when flux was airing and absolutely lost your MIND over the illogical house which was a bit too on the nose regarding Lungbarrow related things, then THIS FIC IS FOR YOU. Absolutely brilliantly done, with some gorgeous imagery that I'm still thinking about to this day, and just a wonderfully unsettling exploration of the Doctor and how she picks at those cut off memories in the aftermath of the Flux
the stars are bound to change by emptypockets (9k, 1 chapter, gen) summary: Being trisected across the universe has unexpected consequences for the Doctor, and Yaz is tasked with the responsibility of keeping her awake. //ohhhhhh this fic is so wonderful!! It's that weird sweet spot of 'soft angst', where it hits where it hurts but at the same time the whole thing feels like it's wrapping you in a warm blanket. Augh!! Such a lovely portrayal of the Doctor and Yaz's dynamic - I adore how this author writes these two so much. An absolutely lovely (but angsty!) character exploration, with a healthy dose of whump and sleepiness on the side. What more could you want?
Everything by rowanthestrange (24k, 13 chapters, thasmin) summary: In which Yaz wants to know everything, and the Doctor finally wants that too. //Ok, so full disclosure, I don't read that much thasmin, but this fic, guys. It's just gorgeous. A beautifully written exploration of Yaz and her relationship with the Doctor in the aftermath of Flux, which explores the years Yaz spent in the past and how that changed her; the Doctor grappling with her identity issues and how that's changed her; as well as all sorts of other wonderful things besides. Another fic that had tears streaming down my face (the TARDIS chapter got me...). It's such a poignant, emotional fic, and it's very focused on character in a way that I really adore. If you like thasmin, this is an absolute must-read. If you're not a fan of thasmin, I recommend it anyway (- signed: a thoschei shipper) because it's just such a brilliant portrayal of these two.

Yaz is cool as fuck and people don’t appreciate her enough, a very long ramble
TLDR because this is so long: yaz is really cool and a compelling character and not enough people talk about how good of a character she is, both with and without the doctor, enough
In the first episode we learn as soon as we meet her that yaz wants to help people. She is tired of getting parking disputes and wants something more serious, and after meeting the doctor immediately starts helping her even if she isn’t supposed to be, and later it’s implied (I don’t think it was ever confirmed?) that she originally became a cop because one helped her when she had ran away/was suicidal, maybe?
Throughout season 11 we see her be the most empathetic/caring (episode 3 with the racism Ryan specially was facing, episode 6 with her grandma’s first husband, episode 7 with dan from kerblam, 8 with the kid who’s grandma was killed for “being a witch”, 9 with the blind kid), and is also very loyal almost immediately (“more of the universe.. more time with you!” “No. I’m with you, whatever happens” and more I’m forgetting)
She also has a very similar sense of justice to the doctor, practically immediately and comes to share her view on a lot of topics (she was hesitant to take the gun in TPOTD, she wrote wwtdd(which is adorable btw) on her palm, she defended Tesla, stands up to the master, once again more I’m forgetting probably)- hell, when seperated from the doctor without instructions/for a long time she takes 13s place as leader
Circling back to loyalty: she spent 10 months obsessively trying to find the doctor, she slept in the second tardis, she probably (I think it’s implied?) neglected her own health, social life, and job (if she still had one at this point) just to obsessively try and figure out how that tardis worked, to figure out how to get back to the doctor
And that was after she walked into a portal to an alien planet, not caring about danger because it’s what the doctor would do if it were one of them (she was already half way there by the time Graham finished asking who was going first, walking quickly and had a very determined look on her face. I really do believe if it had come down to facing the master or cybermen she would’ve to ensure 13s safety), which btw, is one of my favorite scenes in the show
And then s13. Gods I think I could talk about yaz in season 13 and those last 3 specials for days. A) Dan is more her companion than docs, let’s be very clear- they spent 3 years trapped in an unfamiliar time together with yaz acting as the leader (see above about her taking on the Doctor’s role when the doctor isn’t there to)
She handles 13’s outbursts and venom astonishingly well through the whole series but esp in s13, when she is double guessing her identity and even more unwilling to share than before, like it’s downright elegant that yaz is able to ignore 13s jabs sometimes, cuz personally I would’ve thrown hands. Although she doesn’t let the doctor walk over her, she doesn’t just accept the bullshit, she argues with the doctor quite a bit (telling her she is fully at fault for the situation at the beginning of s13 ep 1, telling her to stop leaving them all the time, shoving her when she shows back up after the 10 months)
As mentioned before the “what would the doctor do” being written on her hand is a really good touch and it does well to show just how much yaz looks up to 13 and how much she loves her (a very much amount, like infinitely)
This is getting very long so I’ll try to wrap it up somewhat quickly. Anyway, I really love yaz’s coming out scene (although I detest Dan outing her), it feels very natural and is filled with a lot of great emotions that we don’t see her have very much- like, she cries! Yaz, while shown having emotions, isn’t shown sad very often (which considering she was depressed as a younger teen and might still be, could just be her repressing those emotions) and is shown as scared much less, it’s nice to see those emotions on display
Speaking of emotions on display: “stop leaving us” is one of my favorite scenes/lines. Getting to see just how anxious yaz gets when the doc leaves, just how much she hates being separated from her, is a really nice insight to how she thinks- the doctor has already left her twice before (neither times were her fault, though) so who’s to say it won’t happen again? Easier to stay by 13 than to be crushed by her disappearing without warning
(Also side note but after that the two don’t separate much/if at all, showing that the doc did genuinely listen to her)
I’ve heard people say that they didn’t enjoy Legend of the sea devils that much but personally I love it- both because holy shit they’re so gay, but also because it again demonstrates that yaz is genuinely so smart and capable and there’s really no wonder 13 fell for her so hard (because she did. 13 fell so hard) I also like that this episode shows that the two play off each other and trust each other a lot, even if they aren’t always in sync
And finally onto the power of the doctor! Yaz’s best episode by far and my favorite of the entire series!
Yaz. Is. So. Fucking. Amazing. In this episode. She really shines so much which is saying a lot because she usually shines anyway. She looks so ready to punch the master if only he’d give her a reason, ready to shoot him (maybe not fatally… maybe) if he threatens the doctors or her own safety
She openly defies him, she leaves him stranded on a planet and if not for the plan she might’ve never came back for him, she flies the tardis! All on her own! We can assume that the doctor helped teach her but how much of that knowledge is from those 10 months? (I like to think that the first time yaz helped fly it was completely by accident)
Do the doctor holograms share knowledge? Cuz if not, that implies that she figured out it can change interface on her own and used it in their/her plan.
She saves the doctor! Multiple times! Runs out towards a fucking laser to make sure she’s safe (another favorite scene), she flies everyone home while the doc rests and recovers, she is just so cool in this episode!!
And honestly, I hate her ending. Don’t get me wrong, it’s fantastic that she survived, really truly fantastic, if they had killed yaz I’d have balled my eyes out and sworn doctor who off for a second time, but her ending? No.
I do not think she should’ve stayed with the doc, I believe she loved (romantically, she’d love every doctor platonically but) 13 only, she’d be traveling the stars with 14 or 15 but I think over time she would’ve slid into that grief, that the doctor is still there but hers isn’t. But just having to go back to normal life? Go back to her family and job and life? That’s bullshit
Graham and Ryan got the psychic papers, yaz could’ve too (which btw that’d make a fun spin off I think), or she could’ve gotten the doctors coat (which would’ve been the cutest thing ever), or even her sonic! (Least likely) but- nothing? Nothing? No!!
She and 13 should be allowed to be immortal space wives together (with river, maybe) and nothing bad should ever happen to them

What I particularly love about the progression of Thasmin.
Tumblr media
I love a lot about their relationship, but namely how it shows that characters don't have to be physically affectionate for their relationship to have meaning. Its about the connection, which is heavily built upon throughout the era with a natural progression.
In series 11 they become friends, 13 shows Yaz the ropes, in the finale she has a really defining moment where she stays with the Doctor instead of returning to the safety of the TARDIS.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Then later on she puts her mind at risk to save the human race.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Continuing to Series 12, they have become closer, now more best friends. One notable moment being of course, here
Tumblr media Tumblr media
But more that those feelings for the Doctor begin to develop for Yaz, shown in little moments like :
Yaz's response in Nikola Tesla's Night of Terror.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The conversation in Haunting of Villa Diodati
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
And of course in Revolution of the Daleks where Yaz spends almost a whole year relentlessly searching for the Doctor. With the whole episode showing how much she missed the Doctor, and how much it hurt to lose her. That episode itself is such a vital moment for their relationship, especially with Yaz staying on.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Then in Praxeus, on the side of the Doctor, we see Yaz's independence in the field becoming a notable point of conflict, showing an increased level of care surrounding her safety.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Then in Series 13, feelings develop on both sides, with the Doctor's past acting as a weight on her shoulders, making her cold and distant. Once she moves past that, the feelings become more and more clear for both of them, but especially the 13th Doctor.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Then in the 2022 specials, the reciprocated feelings come to ahead. The Doctor says she can't pursue it due to the nature of her life. They are shown to still greatly care for each other, even when the doctor regenerates with the mutual acknowledgment of their time coming to it's end.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
So yeah, I think overall the progression of their relationship is really natural and realistic. And the way it moves forwards worked really well for me. I think their ending worked really well.
Disclaimer: If anything I said came off as ignorant please let me know so that I can do better and apologise, as my #1 priority for this account is creating a safe-place for fans to share our love of this show.

the insistence from some ppl that 13 was just ‘letting Yaz down gently’ in lotsd is so strange and embarrassing btw bc she clearly and objectively wasn’t doing that. have your weird unreciprocated headcanon if you want but canonically that isn’t what’s happening and it’s pretty easy to follow
and the way some ppl like to take what’s in the episode and twist it to be a point towards either bad writing or 13 not feeling the same way about Yaz is truly baffling to me like do any of you actually pay attention to this show or do you just like to shout chibnall bad from the rooftops even tho your point doesn’t make any sense?
when 13 says she can’t fix herself to Yaz, she is not letting Yaz down gently. five minutes before that she compared her to River and said if she could be with someone then it would be Yaz. and let’s not forget that 13 for her whole era has been avoidant when it comes to being too close or open with ppl and just two eps before lotsd she was told by Time that she was going to die soon. so, surely, the obvious conclusion there is - 13 feels the same way about Yaz but her fast approaching ‘death’ and the fact she’s already suffered so much loss throughout her life and doesn’t want to go through that again means she tells Yaz she can’t be with her, even despite Yaz saying her Nani’s thing of ‘being brave is knowing something will hurt and doing it anyway’
like, OKAY, did 13 make the wrong choice there? imo yes, because they clearly have an attachment to each other already so leaving is going to hurt so bad they might as well just go for it and be together for what short time they have but the fact 13 still made the choice despite that isn’t like, horrific writing or proof 13 actually doesn’t feel the same at all, it’s just how shit went. like, that’s storytelling bro omg. dislike it if you want and say you would have preferred 13 to say yeah fuck it let’s be together for the time we have, but acting like it doesn’t make sense for her to turn Yaz down or like it was bad writing is genuinely just ridiculous
also, when it comes to the whole settling down thing, there’s been talk of how the doctor has settled down before, 12 with river, 14 with donna and like.. okay idk how that means 13 saying she can’t settle down doesn’t make sense? we saw her reaction to Ryan deciding to leave, and in Diodati how she obviously is still fucked up from Bill. 12 may have settled down with River but after that he went through things that clearly still affect 13. like woah maybe the reason she struggles with the idea of settling down with Yaz is bc the last time she was settled somewhere (the university), it resulted in that killed basically the entire group and left the Doctor alone once again
and then when it comes to 14 it’s like we’ll yes he’s settling down bc 15 and Donna basically talked him into it and he is slightly less emotionally repressed than 13 was so settling down wasn’t as big a deal for him. like HELLO ?? do you ppl not see how dumb you sound. there’s explanations for all of these things I actually cba

Doctor who's season 13?? ESPECIALLY the Yaz Hug moment
So with the new specials coming out I thought I'd post my thoughts on the season 13 finale
The doctor breaks herself into three different versions ,three different pieces overwhelmed by solving three equally pressing problems. I hear everyone’s issues with the 13th doctor etc etc but this was the PERFECT finale to her character--the entire arc is so chock-full of different problems EVERYWHERE that the doctor is squashing out.
I didn't realize it until then but the entire point of the Flux and the doctor closing herself off and not telling yaz and dan anything--AHH such a good idea!! It's the perfect way to represent everything as her arc comes to its climax.
Also just. The 13th doctor doesn't want to worry people so she doesn't tell her companions squat and just constantly deflects. you know how Clara uses the TARDIS and pseudoscience as a coping mechanism to get away from the Bad Things she has to eventually deal with?? YEA. NOW THE DOCTOR IS DOING IT.
in a way you see she's kind of grateful that she's in the middle of all this, because then she doesn't have to face anything :3—which is terrible and awful, but easy to rationalize because 'people's lives are on the line and she has to save them'!!
Naturally the doctor has always had a problem with being far too selfless. and while this arc doesn't state it directly, the acting and the camera work and the situation all state it indirectly enough. And Yaz is kind of the only one who notices cause she's the only one who's been there long enough?? anyways ahhhh when the companions finally reunite after like two episodes of being apart, its just. the doctor forces herself to stop the 'how do we fix this' brain and she makes herself pause and just goes "wait" and she stops and HUGS YAZ for like three seconds. It's the first break, the first silent, not-really-tense moment you get in an EXTREMELY long time. And even then it doesn't feel like long enough.
THE YAZ HUG MOMENT IS SO GOOD: I guess I noticed it was weird that it lasted so long but I couldn't exactly figure out why it was such a good choice. And then. In that whole meet-up scene, the cuts are SO very well done. You have the camera circling her, spinning, and the Doctor sees someone, says their name—
"Yaz! Dan! Kate Stewart, Kate Sewart! Jericho! Victorian-looking bloke!"
With every new bit of information, in a row, it jumps to a new cut, a new angle, with no continuity of the Doctor's previous pose—and i mean no continuity, from one cut to the next she is 180 degrees with completely different hands and head positions— but with possibly MORE stuff that she has to cram into this situation and spread herself even thinner--and it feels kind of like she's losing her mind.
(She kind of was.)
But she doesn't realize it yet or want to face it or can't face it or whatever, just keeps going, and then forces herself to pause. and to stop.
After all the losses, loss after loss after loss after loss in this arc, after making an extremely difficult, selfless decision, after all it cost her, she takes just a little selfish moment for herself to say, "Wait." and she chooses to not do anything. she chooses to take three long seconds to turn and hug yaz. not anyone else.
Of course, once she does, the camera stops spinning and idk i was just like 'WOW we really have been going nonstop for just a ridiculous amount of time haven't we.' and that was kinda when i realized that yea, I am gonna miss season 13's version of jodie whittaker.

Thasmin & How the Changing of Showrunners Handicapped Their Story
You know what? I'm going to rant about it. I've been thinking about Doctor Who from a Watsonian versus Doylist point of view on a constant basis, especially when it comes to showrunners and how the doctor is handed over from showrunner to showrunner and how the exit of Yaz from the show is it possibly the clearest example in the world of this feeling of a showrunner being switched. I'm not talking writing differences, I'm not talking stylistic differences, I'm talking the way that she left the show. Because I would put all of my life savings on the fact that if Thirteen and fourteen had the same show runner, Yaz would have been able to stay around for 13's regeneration. You can feel the writing of the show STRAINING to justify why Thirteen would dump her/leave her behind. It feels abrupt because it IS. Rose got to continue her story with 10 until its organic end. Same with Clara. Hell, even River, though her circumstances were slightly different. There is literally no reason why Fourteen wouldn't go after her the moment the 60th specials end except for the fact that for some absolutely weird reason RTD didn't mention Yaz ONCE despite 14 being more "emotionally open" than the Doctors before him.
Like, I'm going to be honest. I'm mostly ambivalent on Thasmin. I think they're sweet and had potential and got screwed in the build up in seasons 11 and 12 (up until Revolution, even). But if I was y'all I would be PISSED. Because that kind of treatment of Yaz and Thasmin as a love story sucked from both the Power of the Doctor AND the 60th anniversary specials. No closure. No real explanation. No acknowledgement of the main love story of the last showrunner. (Even Steven Moffat name-dropped Bad Wolf/Rose in the 50th special, though he did also have the whole 10th Doctor running around with Elizabeth I thing so maybe that cancels itself out.) The mechanics of the show and how it's run screwed you over. And I'm sorry. I hope y'all get some acknowledgement in 15's Era. I'll be pleasantly and happily surprised if we get a cameo (or some miraculous wrap-up of the storyline ala Husbands of River Song), but seeing how the most logical place for a mention (the toymaker) came and went without a peep I'm not hedging my bets.
(Going to go check out some fanfic, though- and imagine that fourteen took off towards Sheffield the moment the 60th anniversary wrapped!)

Greetings beloved people!
Io and behold, my first time writing smut!
Thirteenth Doctor x (Genderneutral) Reader: Sex Pollen on a beautiful moon - shameless smut edition!
Reader is AFAB and body parts are referred to by name but I did not use any pronouns to refer to the reader themselves!
No beta, we die like men! I wrote this instead of sleeping! Enjoy!
********* Smut is way under the cut!*************
Bouquet (13 x Reader)
“This is the best day to go exploring with Y/N!”, the Doctor exclaimed excitedly while grabbing your hand to pull you with her towards a glittering field of flowers with an equally vibrant forest shimmering on the horizon.
You laughed, thrilled to be chosen by her to spend a day with her. To be close to her and to see her contagious, a billion galaxies erupting in light, smile.
Travelling with the Doctor was like a fever dream, in the best and worst meaning. At times so dangerous and scary that you were afraid to take just one more step. Usually the Doctor would then turn around to you and would encourage you to go on.
“Come on, Y/N,”, she would say with her beautiful eyes full of stars and her scrunched nose and deliciously curved lips, “I need your help here, I can’t do it without you!”
And at other times it was so unbelievable and beautiful that you feared you would wake up and find it all not to be real.
Today you had landed on a small moon of a busy planet.
Yaz, Graham and Ryan had decided to go shopping and sightseeing on the planet below and you and the Doctor had dropped them off and then she had told you about the rich nature and brilliant, crystal clear flowers and and jewel-like singing tress on the moon that she knew you would love to see.
And now you were here, running with your Doctor through the field, feeling the buzzing life around you in the air, trying to keep up with her, even though she was still holding your hand.
“Isn’t it brilliant?”, she screamed and you nodded, a little out of breath.
You reached a little island of colorful bushes and some small trees on the field and you motioned towards them.
Something urged you to take a closer look.
“Can we take a break there? I need to see these colours up close!”, you asked-yelled and the Doctor just grinned and changed the direction towards the closest tree.
It looked just like an earth-birch, but instead of being white and black was this one light-blue with specks of gold and purple.
You inspected the tree closer and found some tiny red glowing mushrooms growing on it.
“Adorable”, you mused to yourself as you smelled the sweetest, fullest fragrance you have ever smelled.
You looked to find the source and it turned out to be coming from the purple, nearly black flowers that were blooming on a nearby bush. Leaning closer you breathed in deeply.
The scent was flowery, surprisingly heavy for such fine, delicate flowers and with a spicy depth that reminded you maybe of musk, or maybe of naturally scented woods like cedar or sandalwood. Something earthy, rich and dark. Something warm that heightened your senses, with a hot burning flame beneath.
“Doctor…”, you turned to look for her, when you heard your name being called at the same time.
“You have to smell these flowers!”, you continued to say unison and you both laughed when you realised it.
“You found the flowers as well?”, you asked and stepped aside to let the Doctor smell your flowers.
She breathed in deeply and smiled contentedly.
“It reminds me of you”, she said and you froze in your movements.
You had just turned to smell the flowers the Doctor had found, which were the same ones as you had seen and you stopped dead in your tracks.
“Oh I wanted to say the same thing”, you said cheerfully, only rarely registering that you had said that out loud what you would usually had only thought.
Mentally you shrugged and couldn’t care less.
The Doctor’s eyes lit up and the stars in them shone brighter than ever before.
She smiled her happy, toothy smile and you beamed back at her.
Smelling the flowers again, inhaling deeply, you decided to pick one.
“Here”, you offered the flower to the Doctor.
“It’s for you, you should wear it in your hair. I love it when you wear pretty things, it makes you even more beautiful…”
And another thing you would usually never had said out loud. How odd.
The Doctor’s eyes grew even bigger with joy as she took the flower from you and carefully pushed the stem behind her ear and arranged her hair around the flower.
“You should have one, too”, she said and picked one for you.
You placed your flower just like she had done and when she rose her hand to help you secure it, she stepped closer to you than it would have been necessary.
You gulped and felt oddly brave, so you grabbed her hand, when it was close to your face and kept it in place.
Something was burning inside of you, flooding your nerves and senses, rushing through your veins in your blood, making you feel the air tingling on your skin. You were suddenly very aware of your body in your clothes, feeling very hot and very bothered.
You felt your nipples stroke against the fabric of your bra and you felt your panties over your tingling and pulsating vulva. Of course they weren’t providing any friction.
But you wanted friction. Badly.
You felt how the Doctor’s usually cool hand close to your face, that you were holding got hotter as well. Maybe her skin burned as much as yours. Maybe her core felt just as yours did. All tingly and wet.
This thought sent even more heat through your body, tangling into a ball of arousal deep in your lower abdomen.
Your eyes were locked into each other, standing there, you felt your heart beat as you were unable to blink.
The Doctor made a step towards you and it made your eyes flicker to her lips, parted and wet, she must have been licking them.
The thought of her tongue flicking made the ball inside of you coil even closer together.
You were relatively the same height as her, so it did not take much to kiss her.
And so you did.
Using your free arm to pull her the remaining centimetres towards you, keeping your grab on your hand, you kissed her.
She responded immediately, opening her mouth for you, strangled sounds coming from her as you kissed her with everything that you’ve got.
It was an open mouth, very wet kiss, an all-consuming, senses overflowing kiss, it was her and her lips and body and nothing else.
She used her other hand to really get a hold of your face, pulling it closer to her, while pushing her knee and thigh between your legs.
You yelped into her mouth, as she pushed a sturdy seam on the inside of your jeans between your labia, exactly where you wanted some friction to be.
You started grinding on her knee and thigh, rather subconsciously, while you tried to remove her coat, kind of blindly, eyes half-way closed and mind filled with her kiss.
She had broken away from you, as the need for air took over and had opted to kiss, suckle and nibble at your jaw and neck instead.
She was working on opening the buttons of your blouse, while you tried to push down her suspenders after having successfully took off her coat from her, when she jumped back, as if she was hit with an electric shock.
“No!”, she gasped for air, making a big step back from you.
“Ohhh, Y/N, I am so, so sorry!”, she panted, a pained expression all over her face.
Your mind barely registered her words, you felt the emptiness, you felt rejected and betrayed and still so, so hot!
You were burning from the inside out!
You still felt your nipples, your tingling core and now warm and very wet underwear. You only wanted her lips back on your skin, so you made a few, shaky steps towards her.
“Ohhh”, she groaned, hands running over her face and through her tousled hair, which was your work, a proud part inside of you pointed out.
“Stupid, stupid Doctor!”, she muttered to herself, while hitting herself on the forehead.
“I should have recognised them… I should have… Think! Think! Think! Concentrate! Concentrate! You have to bring your Y/N out of here! No kissing, kissing is bad!”
You had only listened to her with half an ear, your body and soul hurting from her rejection. Why else should she have pushed you away, if she did not want it as bad as you did?
Maybe you were the only one with burning skin and a desperate pussy.
You rarely considered the whole oddity of the whole situation, how you had acted on your desires so suddenly, how your desires had manifested themselves so quickly on a physical level, when you usually sucked them up and stored them away somewhere deep inside your heart, never even considering to act on them in real life.
So you missed the pained expression on the Doctor’s face, how her chest heaved and how she fought for control over the danger she had put you two into unknowingly. And how she fought down her desire.
You only felt rejected and your soul cried in bitter pain. But your body had it way worse. Had it been a sweet pleasurable desire before, an exciting ache while you had kissed the Doctor was it now an actual pain.
Your body felt as if it was on fire, your skin felt open and irritated and the pressure in between your legs was more than you could bare.
“Y/N. Y/N! Look at me!”, you suddenly saw how the Doctor’s face came into your field of view, kind of blurry, so you tried to blink to get her image clear.
“We were drugged. You need to concentrate. Y/N!”
The word ‘drugged’ had enough effect on you that you managed to finally see her clearly, you tried to focus on her words and the information she wanted to give you.
No, not her lips! Not her soft flushed skin! Not the lips. Not her sparkling eyes! Her words! Her words! Important words!
“Listen to me! Those pretty flowers contain pollen that are toxic to most humanoids…”
“Toxic?”, you managed to blur out. “Are we going to die?”
The Doctor looked at you with her continuous worried, pained expression.
“How — how — how are they toxic? I don’t feel poisoned. But my body hurts!”, you started crying.
“Please make it stop! It hurts so much!”
Hot tears streamed down your face and you desperately tried to rub yourself over your panties inside of your jeans but it did not do much.
“Pl-please!”
You fell to the ground, legs spread wide and you still tried to find release by fervently rubbing over and through your now soaking wet clit and slit.
But it was too wet, your fingers couldn’t do anything, they were unsuccessfully slipping over your skin and you groaned and cried in frustration and pain.
“This is what the pollen do”, the Doctor tried to explain the situation as easy as possible. Also as quick as possible.
“They arouse most humanoids sexually and if they don’t get to climax within three hours the nervous system and the brain could get severe damage. I am so sorry!”
The Doctor had crouched next to you and was biting her lips and pressing together her own legs. If you would have been able to read her body more closely, you would have seen the sweat on her forehead and neck and chest, her panting and her dilated pupils. She was in as much pain as you and her hearts burned with the same desire for you as your heart did for her.
“I will get us out of here and find a solution, I won’t let anything happen to you! I promise!”
She helped you to sit up and to close your jeans again and you saw everything clear as day.
“You don’t want me!”, the thought sobered you up enough to look at her properly and to think like a human being again.
“You don’t want me!”, you repeated, now with an aching heart that nearly lessened the ache in your core.
“Can I do it myself?”, you asked and stood up on shaky legs, pushing yourself up from the ground in a very ungracious way.
The Doctor stood there and watched you with furrowed brows and lips a thin line.
“Do what yourself?”
“Climaxing…”, you answered and stomped towards the TARDIS, not being waiting for her answer.
Legs feeling wobbly and every step was a sensory hell.
Your still felt your hardened nipples against the fabric of your bra, the tightness and the coiling of your insides, your throbbing clit and the seam of your jeans against your slit with every second step.
But now you were also angry.
Angry at the Doctor, angry at yourself that you had let it come so far and angry that you were still so incredible aroused that you just wanted to hump the nearest tree to find release.
“Please Y/N…”, a soft hand on your arm stopped you right in your tracks and you found yourself face to face with the Doctor. Still your Doctor with the beautiful eyes and deliciously curved lips and the soft blond hair, that now looked very dishevelled, still the woman you wanted to kiss, taking all of her in, tasting her everywhere, the woman you wanted to hear scream out in pleasure as a result to your fingers, your tongue on her, inside of her …
“Wait please, don’t go like this!“, the Doctor pleaded with big, desperate eyes, pupils huge.
She sighed heavily and bowed her head in defeat.
“It is not that I don’t want you, on the contrary. I want you so much and I know I shouldn’t. I promise I’ll find a cure for you. Just kiss me again, please! I promise I’ll— “
The sound you let out was a high-pitched moan of relief and eagerness as you pressed your lips to hers again.
And immediately the pain subsided, leaving the pleasurable ache once again behind.
The Doctor’s kiss was eager, eager to please you, taste you, feel you.
Her fingers finished unbuttoning your blouse and impatiently helped you out of the sleeves.
Your burning skin was immediately met with a cool breeze that made you shiver in the most stimulating way.
The Doctor kissed your neck, right at the juncture to your shoulder at the soft hollow above your collarbone and you sighed and sighed and sighed out loud.
The Doctor’s lips and tongue, wet and warm, were working on your shoulder while her skilled and quick fingers opened your bra. She only stopped kissing your shoulder for a second to pull the straps of the bra down your arms and the moment your sensitive nipples were hit with the gently blowing breeze around you, you threw back your head and screamed out in pleasure.
This was what you had wanted all the time, since this madness began.
So the Doctor went immediately towards your left nipple, she licked across it, once, twice, thrice and then very gently grazed it with her teeth.
She held you stable with one arm and used her other hand to pinch and stroke your right nipple.
You arched yourself towards her and tried once again to remove her suspenders, this time you succeeded as far as it was possible to the point, where she held you tight.
She unlatched from your breast and you let out an involuntary sound of disappointment.
“Shhh”, the Doctor quickly kissed you
“One second, my love!”, she murmured close to your lips and and finished taking off her suspenders, while you tried to kiss her again.
“I just want to lay out my coat for you. I don’t want you to come while standing up, I want you to feel as comfortable and good as possible. I’ll be quick!”, she purred and quickly took her coat from the ground, gave it a shake and laid it flat out.
While she had worked with the coat you had opened your jeans and were just about to pull them down as her hand stopped you.
“Let me help you with that!”
And the Doctor pulled down your jeans, helped you to step out of them and then kissed the hemline of your panties.
“We do not need them anymore, do we?” Her voice was like melted butter and you squirmed.
Everything inside of you was throbbing in painful anticipation, your nipples hard, begging to be touched again and you just wanted to ride the Doctor’s face until you came.
Laying down was overrated!
“Ple-please, ge’em off…”, your voice was slurred but the Doctor understood anyways.
She kneeled down in front of you and pulled your underwear down.
She sighed excitedly at the sight of your now fully exposed body.
“I have dreamed of this moment!, she admitted, while looking up to you through her lashes.
“Likewise!”, you answered with a slurry voice and she grinned happily.
And it was a sight for the gods — the Doctor on her knees for you, her hands tightly on your thighs, admiring every inch of your body with endless hunger in her eyes.
She looked at every jiggly curve and soft, dimpled patch of skin, every warm and oh so human part of you and looked as if she was offered every answer to every question in this universe.
“Lay down!”, the Doctor commanded as you tried to throw one of your legs over her shoulder, to get her face where you wanted it the most!
You eagerly complied, laying down on your back on her coat.
The ground beneath it was surprisingly lush, soft and plush, nothing like hard, uncomfortable grounds you knew from home on Earth. You had slept on beds that were not even half as perfect and snuggly as this random meadow on a random moon.
‘Sex moon’ your cloudy mind corrected.
It was like the moon wanted people to be comfortable after they inhaled the flower’s pollen.
You opened your legs for the Doctor and she crawled between them, but not before taking everything of your exposed sex in.
The still gently blowing breeze danced over your slick, wet bare core and provided you with a delicious tickle of sensual cold, that made your whole body tingle in lust.
You bucked your hips aimlessly into the wind, as if it could provide you with some friction.
While the wind was cool, you were getting hotter and bothered by the second.
The Doctor’s eyes glittered and she beamed at you.
“You are even more beautiful than I imagined you would be! So wet, so hot, so ready for me…”
Normally you would have been ashamed, self-conscious or shy at words or even looks like hers but the untameable desire in you burned all of your fear or shame down to dust. What was left was your lust, your passion and your love for the Doctor.
And your need for the Doctor to finally, finally touch you.
But after the Doctor was done with her admiring, she crawled on top of you, kneeling between your legs and took once again your nipple in her mouth. You groaned in frustration and pleasure.
This was not were you wanted her tongue to go.
You were still bucking your hips, this time towards her, as she pushed two fingers into your vagina.
You yelped and moaned out loud as her thumb started to stroke your clit.
“More, more, more”, you pleaded with each thrust as you still bucked, now at her hand.
And she added a third finger. She pushed knuckle-deep inside you, curled her fingers upwards and also sucked and nibbled on your nipple with even more force.
“Ahhhh!”
You cried out, pleasure and lust washing over you and yet it was not enough.
“Ahhh, MORE!”
She let go of your nipple and smiled at you, you looked at her a little confused and questioning but her fingers still pumping inside of you and massaging your clit kept you occupied.
“I have something for you, let me get it…”
She slowed down her pace and reached around into the pocket of her trousers and took out her screwdriver.
You watched her every move and as she put it to a low vibrating setting you were starting to be intrigued. You even forgot your disappointment about her slower movements.
“Lift your bottom, please, my love”, she urged you and you raised your butt even higher into the air, you had it partially there anyways to meet her hands and movements.
She removed her fingers from you and you looked at her angrily, you were too weak, to lust-stridden to express your disappointment vocally.
She shook her head.
“Don’t be angry at me, you asked for more and I will give you more!”
And she carefully parted your buttocks and placed her buzzing screwdriver right between them.
The screwdriver’s vibration went over your anus as well partly towards your vagina.
You bit your lips, this was going to be very good!
And the Doctor returned to insert three fingers inside you, immediately starting pumping and massaging your clit with her thumb and biting and pulling on your nipples.
She varied the directions of her tongue on your nipple, drew numbers and letters and all kind of patterns onto you clit with her thumb and took all the time in the world to fill you out with her fingers, stroking, massaging your insides and curling her fingers, finding out which directions got you to scream the loudest…
The vibrating screwdriver on your ass added extra pleasure and you were not holding back.
You bucked your hips, rode along the screwdriver, as much as you could, took her fingers in and screamed out your pleasure into the world around you.
Your moans and screams echoed around you in the forest and it just turned you on even more.
And what you did not know was that the Doctor was a mess, hearing you, hearing the echoes of your screams, feeling you, your wetness all over her hand and your beautiful breast in her mouth made her insides burn just as much.
And then you came. You bucked your hips against her one last time and screamed louder than before. It just came over you.
An orgasm so intense like you never experienced it before.
You think you blacked out for a moment, overcome with your hot, intense relief.
You panted and slowly came back into your body.
And the Doctor?
Her body ached and ached and ached, her desire just as hot as yours, she could not wait to come herself. To be touched by you, to be held by you…
She had carefully continued to pump her fingers inside of you through your orgasm, now she took them out again, stroke over your clit one last time and kissed the nipple she had last worked on.
You laid back, panting.
You slowly came back into your body and took the Doctor in, how she sat between your legs, and grinned.
Your aching, burning pain had subsided but was not gone completely, it had turned down enough that you knew that this had been incredible but that your Doctor was there and still unpleasured. Still unsatisfied.
She rocked back and forth, pushing her legs together.
“Hmm…” You sat up and cocked your head to the side.
“Looks like it’s my turn now to be good to you. Don’t you think?”
“You do not have to do it. I can take care of it myself, you do not have to do anything…”
You sighed, sometimes (very often) you wondered what was going on inside this woman’s head. Did she still think that you did not want her, did not want to touch her?
“Ohhh, no… I want to… desperately”, you darted forwards and kissed her neck, sucking on her skin, her hands immediately grabbed your waist and she sighed, laying her head back to give you more space to kiss her and you smiled against her skin.
“And I also want to make you scream, like you did to me…”, you whispered into her ear, after you sucked on her earlobe.
The Doctor shivered at your words and groaned softly at your soft lips on her ear.
She wanted your lips everywhere!
“But first we need to remove that”, your finger tips graced the neckline of her shirt and she nodded, eyes glued to you.
She raised her arms and you helped her out of her shirt and the tank top with the broad straps underneath and you found that she was also wearing a simple bra.
You removed it and immediately kissed her shoulders, upper chest, breast and nipples like she had done to yours.
She moaned, it was a high-pitched surprised sound that made you smile proudly and that also made your insides tighten again.
You stroke down the sides of her body with soft, determined fingers and stopped at her trousers. You looked up at her and she nodded wordlessly, her eyes still big and in awe.
So you opened her trousers and pushed them down, while she laid back and lifted her cute bottom to the air to assist you.
When she laid there, bare and open, you admired her, just like she had done when you had laid there before her.
But she pushed her legs together and also crossed her arms over her chest.
“Are you uncomfortable? Should I stop?”, you looked at her with a worried expression, you were confused by her actions, but yet she was visible aroused and wanted you. Were the pollen affecting her differently than you?
“I never slept with anyone in this body!”, she admitted, the words tumbling out of her as if she was afraid that she would never say them if she was not quick enough.
“I do not really know how. I want you to feel good and safe and… I don’t know what to do…”, she added with big, worried puppy eye.
“I have a few ideas”, you grinned and laid down next to her on your side.
“You don’t have to do anything and if you don’t like it or I am bad at it we stop and try something else…”
The Doctor looked at you with pure desire in her eyes and you felt her squirm next to you.
“Now…”, you carefully swung a leg over her and straddled her, “I’ll start kissing your neck, we know you enjoy that!”
And with that you were back at sucking, nibbling, softly biting and marking her neck, wandering down to her chest, to her stomach and then finally to her pelvic area.
While you had been working on her, she became first finally relaxed and had then slowly started to open up to you and your touches.
“Ohhh Y/N!”, she had moaned and her legs had opened and her hips bucked and you could not hide a pleasant shit-eating grin, while you kissed her down her stomach.
Your hand carefully parted her legs a little wider and palmed her vulva, she bucked against it immediately.
You grinned again.
You could not believe your luck, the Doctor moaning your name in pleasure, bucking and rutting against you, asking for more from you…
You went on to kiss over her stomach and her lower abdomen and stopped right before you reached the insides of her thighs.
“Hnnnghhh, Y/N… Please!”
Oh how you wanted to hear that, to hear her moan and beg for more from you.
And you happily obliged.
You opened her folds with one hand and kissed directly onto her hot, wet core.
She jolted up, as your lips reached her and moaned.
“So this is what it feels like…”, she said and you licked directly through her slick folds and the Doctor gasped.
And you went all in. Sucking on her clit, pushing a finger inside of her, feeling her walls around it, pumping a little and then exchanging your finger with your tongue, drawing patterns all over her.
Pushing your tongue inside of her, licking as much as you could reach…
“Ohhhhhhhh, plea-please! Don’t stop, don’t ever stop!”, the Doctor begged, clawing at the floor beneath her, pushing herself into your face.
“Deeper, deeper!”, she screamed as you used your fingers and tongue simultaneously on her, pushing deep inside her, licking and lapping all of her overflowing wetness…
“Y/N, I’m gonna… I’m gonna…” and she came and screamed and nearly squirted and bucked her hips and you suckled on her clit throughout her orgasm, letting her ride it out.
The Doctor breathed out and laid back, her chest was heaving and you admired your work.
The Doctor all loose, satisfied and torn apart.
The Oncoming Storm stilled at your hands and tongue. At your love.
She propped herself up on her elbows so that she could look at you and breathed out.
“Whew, this was something, wasn’t it?”
You nodded.
“Oh yes!”
“We should try to get back to the TARDIS as long as we still can”, she said while sitting up and reaching for her clothes.
You followed her movements and your shoulders slumped.
Was she done with you, was this an one time thing due to dangerous pollen and an immediate threat?
You sighed and breathed in deeply, your arms and legs felt like jelly and you just wanted to rest for a awhile on this beautiful lush planet with the sweet, flowery air and the Doctor between your thighs.
You felt yourself getting all tingly and aroused again, apparently you were not done yet…
“Doctor can we please stay for a moment? If this was the last time that this happened I want to take it all in…”
The Doctor was already pulling up her trousers again and tucking her shirt in as she turned towards you, smiling brightly and bending down to you.
“Listen, YN, listen very closely now”, she took your face in her hands and you just wanted to melt into her eyes full of stars. Her beautiful lips, swollen and pink and perfect…
“Y/N, I love you, I love you very much but we have to get off this planet! The wind has turned, don’t you smell it? The pollen are everywhere now and while I feel like I have never felt before, thanks to you and I hope, and think I know,”, she smiled proudly at these words, “you feel like I do, too, we have to get away from here NOW!
The more pollen we breathe in, the more dangerous they become to our nervous system and right now we are in the strongest place to fight them off. We both climaxed very nicely and our bodies are happy and relaxed, so please, get off the ground now!”
She was right. Your orgasm had helped to think more clearly again and while your skin and nipples and pussy and overall your whole body was sensitive and excited about being touched again, you still felt like yourself.
And maybe she was down to continue once you were safely in the TARDIS…
“Okay”, you sighed and pushed yourself up.
You quickly put on your panties, blouse and pants, there you had to grab her arm for stability and stuffed your bra into the pocket of your pants. You definitely did not feel like wearing it, too tight and unpleasant and putting it on just took too much time.
The Doctor grabbed your hand but instead of starting to walk she pulled you closer to her.
“You know we can continue again as soon as we are in the TARDIS… You know that, right?”, she quickly purred into your ear and a warm shiver ran down your spine and you giggled excitedly.
“Yes please!”
And the two of you ran towards the TARDIS, laughing, giggling like school girls.
Once inside you collapsed to the ground, trying to catch your breath while the Doctor was working on the console.
“Hey”, she turned to you, “I know a beautiful nebula, there are no flowers and definitely no people around, we can be just on our own…”
She came closer, while the TARDIS was wheezing and huffing around you, squatting down next to you.
“There I can make you scream even louder than on the moon…
I could kiss you and nib you and taste you and I promise you will forget your own name…”
“Is that so?”, you whispered, voice low and breathy and you slowly, tantalisingly so, opened the buttons on your blouse, one by one, the Doctor’s eyes glued to your every move.
She gulped and you smiled.

here's what i dont get
(let's just gloss over the whole bi-regeneration thing, i don't have the energy to go into it ksfdhdfjhkdf)
so the 14th doctor now wants to lay low and heal. and even though he has 10's face and some mannerisms he still has the memories and feelings from 11, 12 and specially 13, cause she's the most recent
so then... why would he choose to go to donna and consider her family home and not yaz? the last time he saw donna was like 4 billion years ago + however long 13 was in jail, and like.. donna clearly doesnt need the doctor, shes happy with her family. and then theres yaz, who just lost the love of her life and is wallowing in depression in some dark corner of her flat
like even disconsidering thasmin, it just doesnt make sense to me that the doctor would just ignore yaz and choose to be with donna instead?
also like, the doctor wants to heal right? whats the best way to do that if not in weekly group sessions with a lot of your past companions where you talk and cry and support each other?

So I've been thinking a bit more about The Giggle and I'm convinced it's not only great, but also the best way to end 13's era. It's a bit long, so I'm putting it under the "read more" bit
So, the main emotional conflict during 13's era was just that she was physically unable to stop. Everything went horrible all the time, she was constantly on the run, she never confided on her companions (who somehow still stuck around despite this), she did everything on her own (even when the fam saved the day, it was because of a hologram of her or something)... By the end of her run I was just exhausted for her and praying for her to please just stop and talk instead of just flying off on her TARDIS once more to the next thing. I physically cringed every time she didn't talk to someone about what had been going on with her life.
Even her ending involved dropping Yaz, staying alone, because she just couldn't settle.
It's entirely understandable if that affected her regeneration. There's this fairly well accepted theory that each new incarnation is decided by what the Doctor wanted before their death (like, being "more hip" for Rose, which brought 10, or "not leaving yet" bringing 11, a young doctor which, on the surface, is very similar to him). What did 13 need more than anything? Stopping, pausing, healing. Talking.
How long had it been since that happened?
To me, it feels like it hadn't really happened since 10. 10 had Rose and Martha, who both knew about the time war, and how broken he was after that. He talked to Martha about Gallifrey and its grass and all that, Rose faced the Daleks. And Donna? Donna knew about that, as well as about Rose, Martha. Together they had fun, but, in the end, she became half-time lord. No wonder she felt like home.
I'm not sure any incarnation after that had something similar, really.
And so, what was the only option left? It clearly wasn't regenerating to a new face, starting from scratch somewhere new, with someone new. What would he do? Introduce themself again to somebody, begin anew, running on and on to new, traumatizing adventures? Because that was 14's first impulse. He wanted to drop Donna and keep going, keep going, keep going. She had to tell him to please just settle often, and he kept saying "No, I wouldn't know what to do".
And so, to me, it seems that this arc was the perfect way to cap off 13's run. The Doctor now has an old face, one known by others, one that others found nice, one that was healed after trauma. He also has no excuse now to stop, for, after the bigeneration, he can go on, now unburdened, while his other self heals, and stops, which is the thing 13 needed the most.

So, liked you talking about Orphan 55 and finding a new interpretation to it! Are there any other Chibnall-era stories that you feel people really don't get?
On the whole? the whole era seems to sail over peoples heads imo, but that's the salt talking. Okay, it's not Only salt talking, i think S12 particularly is very interconnected in its themes the whole way through and when people miss one thing they tend to not see a bunch of others. But still.
On an episodic level, I think Arachnids in the UK sailed way way way over peoples heads in a massive way, not necessarily in a they didn't get it way, but more of a 'didn't bother to look at it' kind of thing bc there are giant spiders and a tr/ump stand in making a lot of noise, not to mention Najia's 'are you dating' riff distracting a different subset of people. I admit that all of the above was very distracting, especially if you're arachnophobic.
But yeah, a rich guy with no morals is out to make a fast buck. He picks Sheffield of all places to do this, working class, known for it. On the way to making a fast buck he cuts corners and forgive me, i've not watched it in a long time and i may be slightly off on some of the specifics, but the illegal/irresponsible disposal of waste by some rich guy, in a place where working class people live in an effort to make it more ~fancy to attract richer customers (like, i assume he was after that?), causes an environmental disaster to the local ecosystem by producing harmful gasses and litter is everywhere (hence Yaz's dad convinced there's a conspiracy of some kind), this in turn affects local fauna to the point something Weird happens to them (in this case, they get really really big) and the next domino in this long list of cause and effect, is that this effects the people living in said city because the now massive huge spiders are a danger to people and kill them.
Rich people fucking up the lives of the working class by destroying the environment to line their own pockets. Rich people harming wildlife to line their own pockets causing environmental disaster that in turn fucks over the working class.
it's almost like, in real life, the people doing the real harm and damage to the environment are the rich monsters content to do whatever they can for that new yacht no matter the environmental disaster it causes for us average joes.
They uh, were going somewhere with that one! And it's one of the least mentioned ones i think? When people talk about episodes with messages about protecting the environment/the destruction of it, Orphan 55 and Praxeus tend to be the only ones mentioned, but they're not alone. Orphan 55 and Arachnids live specifically at the intersection of capitalism VS environmental protection and how these two things Cannot coexist. Praxeus takes more of a dig at a different area.
I think War of the Sontarans flies frequently over peoples heads for it's themes of contextual morality in war. The show does not tie its opinions on violence up with a neat bow. We have two lead characters in two vastly different times (Dan & 13), one is fighting tooth and nail to stop some general starting a pointless ego driven fight and getting people killed, the general is unequivocally portrayed as awful. Meanwhile, Dan is in present day Liverpool fighting for a cause, trying to stop colonization and being portrayed as entirely in the right for doing so.
It was wrong of that cowardly general to start a bloody, awful, horrifying battle that got other people killed just to satisfy his bloodlust and make himself look big, to place the glory of war and the British empire over a legitimate solution that avoided bloodshed and solved the issue. Meanwhile, in the same breath, the show says It was morally correct of Dan to fight back against a colonizing force in his home city, even when it meant blood.
The context of this genuinely seems to throw people. I've seen complaints that the show can't even make up it's own mind on what it's view of violence is and like... Yeah? You're SO close to getting the point here, guys. Of course you cannot offer a blanket judgement on violence in general! 13 was called a hypocrite for having tears in her eyes when the general killed the retreating sontarans but not caring that Dan and Karvanista used violence to remove them from Liverpool in the future and Entirely missed the nuance of how those situations differ.
I just think it flew over peoples heads that the show was maybe saying gratuitous ego driven violence when peaceful solutions exist is Bad, while at the exact same time also saying that you are morally correct for fighting back against colonizing forces with violence because those peaceful solutions Do Not Exist here.
I mean, it's vastly more complicated than the summary, but yeah. That theme pops up more than once in the era. Trips people a lot, as well.
On a small scene level, i think people misjudged what was going on in It Takes You Away with what the solitract did. I remember people being angry that 13 got a frog and not a person from her past, but Graham and that dude only got their spouses because the solitract was actively trying to trick them into staying with them. The thing about 13 in this scene is that she is the one seducing the solitract, not the other way around (it is Genuinely the most aggressively flirty 13 is her whole run. I don't feel bad using the word seduce in its traditional usage here. She was using every bit of doctor charm that 13 does not normally Want to utilise but proves here can do so if she wants).
Once 13 is alone with the Solitract, the solitract does not Need to trick or manipulate 13 into staying because 13 was the one asking to stay. So when the solitract just appears how it wishes, that makes perfect sense. Also, 13 would have been angry had she had some piece of her past pulled from her brain and shoved in front of her, lbr.
The rest i have are more theme related than episode related specifically? I think? yeah.
