never not thinking about them

[digitalafterlife]

missy says “the doctor kills people too, i just enjoy it more. he’s the farmer, i’m the hunter, you know” and that makes me think she’s intimately aware of the sacrificial lamb paradigm. the lord is my shepherd. companions as beautiful little foals raised for the slaughter. with sorrow, of course, and remorse. the farmer loves every new creature in their flock with an emotional tenderness reserved for children and lovers. he’ll grieve when the butcher comes. he always does. but it’s inevitable. and you can always pretend your pet will live as long as you but fifty dog years are ten of your own. and when the time comes to put them down you’ll blame the vet. you’ll blame whoever has to bleed the calf. you’ll try not to blame yourself. after all, creatures in the wild alone lead such boring, listless lives. you’re showing them the wonders of the cosmos they’d never have seen with their normalcy-blinkered gaze. you’re doing them a favour. you’ll adopt another one. it will thank you as the light leaves its eyes.

but the hunter is evil, you say. the hunter kills willfully, the hunter stalks its prey, the hunter attacks with no mercy. instantly. painlessly, maybe. is that really so much worse?

after all, many moons ago, with a bloodied rock in his hands and the spectre of Death breathing down his neck, the hunter’s future had become the farmer’s first sacrifice. many moons ago, cain was the farmer and abel the hunter. and cain killed abel

Twelfth doctor era of doctor who was incredible because it was basically just:

Clara: I can fix him (makes him worse)

Missy: I can make him worse (accidentally fixes him)

Bill: Well, I'm a lesbian and I'm going to be his friend :)

People exist who actually want the Master to be written out of the show? Even temporarily? They’re like…the only other reoccurring character. The only other active character that can be recasted. Almost as central and iconic to the show as Cybermen or Daleks. Infamous for coming back from the dead. The Doctor’s person.

clara preventing the ‘doctor of war’ from raining nuclear hellfire on his home planet, gallifrey = ruby preventing the ‘minister of war’ (ref. before the flood) from raining nuclear hellfire on his home planet, earth

roger ‘mad jack’ ap gwilliam ‘britain’s most dangerous prime minister’ intentionally gets paralleled to the simm master (a pointedly ‘mad politician’), marti bridges = his lucy saxon

gwilliam seems like this doctorless timeline’s parallel to both the doctor and the master. a symbolic merging of the doctor and master’s identities, far from the first time this season (fifteen hiding inside a drum and saxon’s theme getting played to him in TDC; fifteen saying he could “write a diary in drums” in boom; the moon and the president’s wife). kate stewart flashing her red red nails like the hand that picked up the tooth. i wonder
