i love how 13 feels like just a vat of contradictions. she aims for joyful and hopeful and comes out vicious and bloodthirsty. she starts off talking more intimately about regeneration than we’ve ever heard and continues by not telling her new friends her species or what planet shes from for an entire year, longer if she hadnt been forced.
shes the most closed off doctor ive seen but tHE THINGS SHE SAYS, when she says them, are so careful and fragile and closer to the bone than i feel like any other doctor has been.
her anger and her love feel so entangled i cant tell if theyre not actually the same entity and probably neither can she.
and maybe this is just my blorbo brain talking - it probably is - but i feel like this is the most the doctor has been like what i imagine theta sigma was like. the wonder about everything, the curiosity, the excitement, the joy, her most pure wish to just travel with friends around the universe, not be anybody but a traveller. ‘i get to learn something fun about a cool new part of the universe i havent heard of before and in return i fix your problem for you!’ the ux! the anti-matter drive! no way the solitract?!
“youre like a kid sometimes”
and the violence. the violence in defense of other people. as long as you dont threaten her friends you will probably be okay, you wont be targeted at least, you might get in some crossfire but that’d be on you then wouldnt it. and if you threaten her friends, anyone she has befriended, anyone she thinks deserves her protection, you will die. if you threaten her friends directly, she’ll make it hurt. and she will feel justified, she wont spare you a second thought.
shes terrified half the time but shes got a lot to say even when she is. i dont think she cries but the way she deals with emotions is very go sit on a rock alone for a couple hours and then pretend you havent been crying when your friends arrive.

[id: Rallon, Magnus and MIllennia found the Doctor a few hours later. He was sitting on a rock at the base of a mountain not far from his ancestral home, Lungbarrow.
He was still wearing his dark, one-piece Academy suit, its pockets packed with pens and data pad. He clearly had not been home. He also looked as if he had been crying although none of them opted to mention this.]
she went to gallifrey enough times she might have actually sat on that same fucking rock
