Hehehehehehehehehehe!
This is head soup, from my brain, simmering over four years of pure minted telly. No conclusions, just points of fact....
Something's happening, right? Something big and nasty. There was this big war, see, and it raged right across time, wiped out whole civilizations, displaced tons more and cracked planets into wee bits. Its effects have been echoing across a universe it now doesn't really exist in and it's been thrumming along behind everything The Doctor's been doing since then.
The Doctor. Quite the man, him. Clever bastard. Saves worlds. Carries the weight of the universe on his shoulders. Has occasional grimaces. Killed his entire species to rid the universe of the most evil bastards in creation, The Daleks. Gave himself an angst hangover of Billy Corgan proportions in the process.
Was cool though. Daleks were killed. Universe wounded, but safe.
Daleks came back. Everything shit.
Daleks dead again. Billy Corgan leaves.
Daleks back again, on the back foot. Rolls up sleeves, sets in about it. Has a bit of a dance about with them, bit like old times but not quite as scary, yeah?
Fucksticks.
Dave's back.
Dave's a prick.
---------
Dave got the biggest Get Out Of Jail Free Card the cheeky wee cock's ever drawn. Pulled right out of a sealed and buried fragment of spacetime, and back into existence like he'd just nipped out for a quick fag.
Jammy fucking bastard!
His wee lackey, Cann, last Dalek in the universe, drops through the time lock and tells Dave to get back inside cause The Doctor's hoggin' the dancefloor. Dave jumps in and nicks some planets. The Doctor looks about like somebody just stopped the music and put the lights on.
Wee Cann's brain's been fried, but. All he can do is rattle out stream-of-conciousness ravings about all the shit he knows and he's seen, trying to impress Dave. Dave's pretty chuffed with his work though and gives his ranting a good bit of attention. When the other Daleks try an tell him than Cann's spouting pish, he shouts them down and tells them that Caan only speaks the truth. The very next thing that comes out the wee man's mouth? All that stuff about the threefold man dancing in the lonely places. The creator of them all. The Doctor.
Dave's pretty sure things are trundling along quite nicely. The arrival of The Doctor on the scene, trying to mess up all the shit he's scheming. doesn't phase him one bit, in fact it only vindicates him. Dalek Cann foretold it, and it's happening. Dave wants The Doctor about.
(The first thing that springs to mind about the threefold man, is the head of Russ T.
Man likes his Deus Ex Machina, aye. But he also likes his own cleverness a good bit. End of his tenure and he's pulling everything up to now right back in. All I can think of as an explanation for that, from things we've already seen, is a Three Doctor's scenario. Where we started, where we are, where we're going. That's about it for speculation though and I'm not out and out expecting it...)
Tennent cannae be out the game. Contracts or no contracts, who's leaving and who ain't there's no fuckin chance that was his grand exit. We've got his hand, heavily foreshadowed, which originally came from him when he was a freshly-regenerated young pup and has been shown time and time again (this season included) to have a very strong link to him and all that genetic hoojimaflook.
At the same time we've got Donna, who, like it or not, is a bit special. Rose says so. Doctor says so. Instead of the universe fixing itself around her when things go a bit transdimensionally awry (a la Father's Day) she splinters the fucker into a whole new parallel. 'Member that parallel universes aren't as closed off and immutable as people like to make out. The Doctor himself once said that the Time Lords used to be in charge of their upkeep and maintenance. It was the destruction of the Time Lords in the war that closed the barriers between dimension. But that's barrier's been getting flimsier and flimsier ever since The Tardis took a drunken tumble through one and met some robots.
Rose still gots a secret, I reckon. She's been holding off until she's found The Doctor to tell it, but there's a whole heap of shit raining down on every dimension at the moment, and Davros and The Daleks currently only account for one, no matter what they did to get there. Buuuut, they're building some sort of big engine out of planets in The Medusa Cascade. Used to big a big rift in Time and Space, that one. Prof. Yana got found there as a nipper.
Right after he shat it from the war, wasn't it?
Hrrrrrrrrrm......
There's a lot of threads here that are jumping at me, but nothing's quite going click yet. If Russ T. gives me that click tomorrow (as I'm bloody hoping he will) instead of a damp little fart, then I'll love the man forever. |
