this was definitely horrifying for ruby on a ridiculous number of levels but i can't stop thinking about kate's remark about the timeline being centered on her. bc like. did kate know? that this was an offshoot timeline that would eventually die? did she know that she wasn't the right version of herself? that one day her reality would collapse to make way for the proper timeline? that even meeting with ruby could be one step towards bringing the proper timeline back in play and erasing her own existence?

#doctor who #doctor who spoilers #kate stewart #fucked if true #also i think it's incredibly telling that kate didn't run #none of the unit soldiers ran #and we know they were terrified bc that's what speaking to the apparition made people #but kate walked calmly away. all the unit soldiers stood and waited for further orders #just a little neat character note that kate's trained herself out of running away even when absolutely fucking terrified out of her mind
