the trouble with trying to rewrite this particular episode is that the episode, as aired, is just so bad that it's physically painful to rewatch
#I mean
#that is why I'm rewriting it instead of just doing a post-ep or missing scene
#like I've done for a lot of other parts of this series
#and yes I'm back on my bullshit again
#finally
#2024 mood
#process thoughts
#my writing
#The Forest For The Trees
#For As Long As We Get
#In The Forest of the Night
#the science is so blindingly bad in that episode that I tend to focus on how much that part of it drives me bananas
#but the internal logic of the episode is basically non-existent too
#and the characterization is terrible and feels forced and weird
#the dialogue is a mess and the pacing is awful and the tone is all over the place bouncing from horror to comedy
#it's just so DUMB so frequently in 45 minutes
#but extinction-level CMEs are a super cool topic for scifi!
#a world-wide forest growing overnight is the sort of fairytale nonsense that Doctor Who should be made for!
#the Doctor should be good with children! or at least bond with a particular special child
#but no the episode manages to screw up all of it over and over and over again
#at least in the rewrite I'm having a lot of fun with post-break-up Danny being wonderfully obnoxious
#I will turn this episode into something I love even if I have to take the raw concepts back to the drawing board and start from scratch
#I'm 9000+ words into what I think will probably be an 18k-20k chaptered fic
#maybe I can actually manage to finish and post it this time
#wish me luck
