River Montoya:

▞▞▞▞▞▞▞▞▞▞▞▞▞▞

Name: Maria “River” Montoya

Age: 25

Gender: She/her cis woman

Sexuality: Pansexual and not exactly but is open to polyamory

Appearance: 6’6 woman with a tall, curvy, and plump body type with a beautiful shade of tan skin and freckles covering her entire body like stars. She has long, dark brown hair and her everyday wear consists of a revealing nature themed outfit or clothes Leo made specifically for her. She was human once before she was killed in the forest and the magical creatures of the forest brought her back to life as the Guardian of the Forest. As such, she has changed slightly, now with tree branches as deer-like horns, a permanent flower crown (the flowers changing depending on her emotions), some flowers and moss growing out of her (like on her shoulders, in her hair, etc), and mostly plant and earth magic along with healing magic

Personality: She’s a flirty, gentle giant who’s very sweet, caring, and soft who can get mean and rough if she needs to be

Other Info: She was once human before she was murdered in the forest by an unknown person and the magical creatures of the forest brought her back to life as the Guardian of the Forest. Now she lives in the forest, and before she met Leo she used to live in a pretty and well-decorated cave, but now she lives with her husband Leo and their couple dynamic is that of Morticia and Gomez from The Addams Family

I made her in the Sims 4 and this is what she looks like:

Also my friend drew her!! <3

Leo sits on a picnic blanket with a handful of flowers, beginning to make a flower crown of beautiful red roses. River lays next to him, humming with a smile on her lips as she makes a flower crown of red, orange, purple, and blue tulips she made herself. She wears a beautiful forest themed dress Leo made for her instead of her normal attire.

"Done!" Leo says as he holds up the finished flower crown.

"Aw, how cute!" River sits up and looks over at him.

"Here, let me just-" Leo stands up and gently sets the flower crown of roses on top of her head, covering the flower crown that was already attached to her. "There! It looks so cute on you!"

"Aww, thank you dearie~!" River smiles sweetly at him.

"Of course! I chose red roses because they symbolize love!" Leo smiles back at her.

"Well..." River gently sets the flower crown of tulips on top of his head. "I chose red tulips because they symbolize true love, orange tulips because they symbolize how I'm connected to you, purple tulips because they symbolize how royal and elegant I think you are, and blue tulips because they symbolize how unique you are." She tells him with a smile.

Leo blushes a bright red and makes a flustered squeak. "Th-Thank you so much, love!!" He smiles brightly.

"Of course, love..." River smiles back at him with a loving look.

the thing about doctor/river is that the blatant romance is a defense mechanism. it’s playacting it’s how they sketch out the boundaries of their relationship because they can never be sure of how the scales of intimacy are balanced - they love each other, sure, but they are so rarely in a place where they both know enough about each other for mutual trust. so you get these really interesting juxtapositions like how eleven is in full flirty mode for impossible astronaut/day of the moon to the point where it feels like they’re about to make out every time they’re in the same frame but at the same time he dismisses her with “trust you? seriously?” and is shocked when she actually kisses him goodbye. in let’s kill hitler they flirt like hell when she is literally trying to murder him but not at all when they save each others’ lives. in the wedding of river song kovarian complains about them being lovey-dovey in front of her but right after that the doctor attempts to reset the timeline and river has to drag him kicking and screaming into respecting her enough to tell her the truth. in angels take manhattan we get both “just you wait till my husband gets home” (flaunting their relationship to grayle) and “never let him see the damage” (she doesn’t trust him to love her as a flawed, mortal person). they’re out of sync all the time, so sincerity is off the table except when it’s a necessary shortcut to trust that doesn’t exist yet - river whispering his name to him in the library when he doesn’t know her yet, their literal wedding being a tool the doctor uses to convince her to let him “die.”

the thing about “hide the damage” in particular is that river was responding to the doctor’s own fear of seeing the damage. she lied to him because she was trying to give him what he wanted, even if he couldn’t admit it. and it applies both to the broken wrist and to their relationship in general. every time he looks at her all he can see is the pain of her death, and she can see that he’s holding back even if she doesn’t exactly know why. this was always going to be a barrier to true intimacy between them unless they could be linear for long enough to know and see each other as they are, not as they’re going to be or as they were.

that’s why husbands of river song is such a perfect resolution for them. the only way river would ever be honest enough to let him see her insecurities is if she didn’t know who he was, so it had to be twelve and not eleven. and it specifically had to be twelve fresh from losing his memories of clara, so that he’d stop running away from confronting her death and just give them those 24 years together on darillium to really get to know each other, to see the ugliness and the imperfections and stay together anyway. it makes perfect sense that after that they could reach the level of love and trust river has for “her doctor” in the library, in a way that just isn’t possible with a relationship built on whirlwind dates done out of order and nothing else.

it's sort of funny sort of fascinating how river consults the diary about Demon's Run in the show (and maybe another big event i'm forgetting) cause on one hand, it's for the audience, to let the audience know what's happening and that she's future river at that point, but on another hand...

i find it incredibly hard to believe that she wouldn't have everything about Demon's Run memorized. river's general feelings about That as a whole are pretty much up to interpretation as she's river and hides the damage and lies constantly (affectionate) and also they (the show itself) never give her time to do so, but that monumental event in her life? yes, i think it's not impossible to say she'd study it. but it's also pretty easy to tell that she uses the diary as a crutch in an emotional way

for her meeting/reuniting with a younger version of the doctor, it's sort of a shield, she's trying to use it to say "look! we have a future together where you trust me implicitly! i've lived it! trust me" (and here i'm thinking of flesh and stone and the library eps)

with the Demon's Run one, she uses it for herself, it's not a shield for the doctor, she even turns around from rory. she's using it to stabilize herself. but she could also be sort of checking through it, like she's double checking, making sure the information she remembers is right

her childhood was extremely up to whatever you could glean from s6 but to be somewhat raised in that orphanage with the Silence without an eyepatch to remember them, along with the fact that she didn't even remember Madame Kovarian makes me want to believe that she probably has memory issues. it sort of adds up, the diary itself, the reason why she "has pictures of all of his faces" and uses that to justify why she always knows it's him (so late in her personal timeline, she should already know all versions of him it's not that hard. also she was raised to kill him. im sure they taught her that too Imfao)

i'm just saying shit atp but i thought that was interesting to think about. you're a time traveller with memory issues, a husband that doesn't know who you are yet, a past you can't remember, and a future that's all out of order. what can you trust if you can't trust your memory? well, what you have written down, i suppose.

You walk through the beautiful forest admiring all the pretty plants, music playing in your earbuds. You like going on nature walks and you decided to go in the forest for your walk today. It's nice and peaceful and everything looks so whimsical and magical. It's so quiet and beautiful...

You stop when you hear something. It sounds like...a woman humming? Her voice is absolutely beautiful and alluring... You slowly walk towards the sound of her, not wanting her to stop her singing.

You stop when you see her; staring at her with awe. She's a tall, tan woman with a curvy and thick body type. Her long, dark brown hair flows in the wind; a perfect flower crown of calla lilies and leaves attached to the top of her head along with two branches like deer antlers. Her outfit is made entirely of vines and leaves, which is quite revealing but hides the parts needed to be hidden. There's some moss and small flowers growing on her shoulders and some vines covered in moss in her hair. She looks like some beautiful forest goddess and you can't help but stare...

She was petting a deer the entire time you've been staring and it seems like they haven't noticed you yet...

The deer makes eye contact with you then runs away, which causes the woman to perk up and look over at you, making eye contact with you as well. Her eyes are a beautiful forest green and they shine like the sunlight.

She smiles brightly when she sees you, her chubby cheeks showing, as she gets up and makes her way over to you. "Why hello there, little dearie~! What brings you into my forest?" She asks; her voice as beautiful and lovely as a lullaby.

"I-I just came for a walk to a-admire the beautiful plants." You stutter out, feeling nervous and flustered to be in the presence of such a beautiful goddess.

"Oh, that's wonderful! I'm glad you like my plants!" She smiles cutely. "I grew some of them myself!" She adds with a happy grin.

"E-Excuse me but- a-are you some sort of forest goddess?" You ask nervously.

"A goddess? Oh, no dear! I'm the forest guardian! What makes you think I'm a goddess?" She asks. Her tone is always so soft and it sounds absolutely adorable.

"W-Well, y-you're beautiful like one-" You mumble softly.

She blushes slightly and smiles wider. "Why thank you dearie~! That's so kind of you!" She says happily. She looks down and notices a band-aid on your knee. You had tripped earlier and scraped your knee and you had some band-aids in your bag/backpack. "What happened to you?" She asks softly.

"I-I tripped earlier. It's nothing too bad, just a scrape." You say with a shrug.

"Would you like me to heal it~?" She asks with a grin.

"O-Oh, it's okay. It's really not that ba-" You get cut off when she gives you a kiss on the forehead. Immediately the slight pain in your leg goes away. Any other pain you had in your body is replaced by an amazing sensation. You feel amazing and completely healed and healthy.

"There we go~! Apologies for the sudden kiss- it's how I heal people! Creatures and humans alike! The deer I was petting earlier was injured and I healed him the same way I healed you!" She says.

"Th-Thank you! Uhh-" You were about to say her name before you realized you didn't know it.

"Oh! I forgot to introduce myself, haven't I? Silly me! My name is River, it's nice to meet you!" River smiles sweetly at you.

"Th-Thank you River! M-My name is Y/n, it's nice to meet you too." You say. Your phone beeps and you check your notifications. It's your friend asking you for help on some mundane task. "I-I have to go, my friend needs me." You say.

"That's alright! Won't you come visit me again?" River asks.

"Y-Yeah, of course!" You say with a smile.

"Perfect! Till we meet again~!" River says in a sing-song tone, beaming happily.

"B-Bye!" You say as you quickly make your way to your house.
