DW 9.07. The Zygon Invasion

This is going to be extremely short...

First of all this, from Tumblr, because it made me laugh:

What I really want to happen is for Tentoo to somehow get back to the original universe and the Doctor almost hyperventilates and keeps screaming ‘HYBRID!!!! YOU ARE A HYBRID!!! HYBRIDHYBRIDHYBRIDHYBRIDHYBRIDHYBRIDHYBRID!!’ and Tentoo just stands there like what the fuck happened to me
(x)

Last time I had a short post, it was due to a lack of mirrors. This time there are almost too many, and I shall have to wait until we've seen part two to actually tackle any of it. It's not that I don't have thoughts, they just... refuse to become coherent.

For now, I shall just leave you with this:

Osgoods

Claras

12s

Zygons wear other peoples' faces, the mirroring built in. But this time, the Doctor is also wearing someone else's face... In conclusion: Everyone is a mirror. And everyone's a hybrid.

I think I have to now conclude you are one of the top-25 most popular people on LJ.

Which is right and good and as it should be. Which makes me suspicious.

"Tentoo wants to introduce himself to Clara, ‘I’m the Doctor aswell, I was born cause a friend of mine touched the Doctor’s hand that was full of regeneration energy, so now I’m part human’. Twelve looks at Clara and whispers dramatically: ‘Like a hybrid’.
Clara almost screams in frustration, because that was the one time too much.
Tentoo still doesn’t understand.

They start travelling with each other and Tentoo quickly understands what the whole hybrid thing is about. Twelve continues to tell everyone who wants to listen (and everyone who doesn’t) that Tentoo is an actual hybrid(!!!!). At first Tentoo is kinda annoyed, but then starts helping Twelve by using things like sporks all the time.

Clara is in a constant state of being annoyed and has to keep saving the universe all by herself, cause the two others don’t get shit done anymore." :))))

Eeeeee!!!!

THIS POST.

Can I just say, the Osgood on the right has TOTALLY got to be the 'human' or hybrid. Because bowtie. Though I'm loving Seven's sweater and Four's scarf (which 4+7=11) because of all the parallels in my addlepated head and my undying obsession with Eleven.

I just watched this episode (I KNOW, WTH!!) and I am at the edge of my seat and screaming!! OMG...

*HUGS*

Thank you, sweetie...keeping on keeping on. S'the only way I know. :D

There's the possibility that the Osgoods could swap clothes since they considered themselves "sisters" due to their link, but most likely you are probably right.

Osgood also wore converse trainers in "Death in Heaven". No celery though.

[identity profile] a-phoenixdragon.livejournal.com 2015-11-09 09:33 pm (UTC)(link)
Didn't she celery in Day of? I cannae remember? I just remember being an utter fangirl from minute one, lol!!

[identity profile] cynthia2015.livejournal.com 2015-11-09 10:12 pm (UTC)(link)

I have a selective memory so I not one hundred percent sure. She probably did. My attention was divided by the scarf, bow tie and converse sneakers,so my mind was all over the place.:D

Eleven would have looked at Osgood's footwear and thought... "Sand shoes?".

[identity profile] a-phoenixdragon.livejournal.com 2015-11-09 10:57 pm (UTC)(link)
*Guffaw* She's got ALL THE STYLE...but you know...sandshoes

[identity profile] cynthia2015.livejournal.com 2015-11-09 11:20 pm (UTC)(link)

LOL. Thanks for the laugh.:D

The Doctor really enjoyed making fun of himself, didn't he?. I like that bit when "The War Doctor" asks if his going through a mid-life crisis.

I notice people complaining about Twelve with his guitar and they consider that a mid-life crisis. Wasn't the fact that the Doctor had previously regenerated into a younger looking man twice, already a sign of that?.

Although on a serious note. Did the Tenth Doctor use his screwdriver to make his converse lighter?. I'm only asking because I went window shopping once and found out that those shoes are heavy. That would not be ideal for running. I know they are popular though. Zachery Levi wore those on "Chuck".

[identity profile] a-phoenixdragon.livejournal.com 2015-11-10 06:02 am (UTC)(link)
You are quite welcome! One of my favs scenes, really. :D

He truly did!! My goodness they can snark! And it was hilarious that the 'youngest' of them looked the oldest and vice-versa! A real treat, that!

OMG. It is NOT a mid-life crisis. Blew past that at Ten (AGAIN), lol!! Eleven was downright crotchety. :D Twelve is enjoying being a rebellious teen again, if one stops the think on it. And I love his guitar.

They ARE heavy!! Methinks the Doctor definitely lightened them. Though...if you think about that phrasing too hard, it makes the giggles come back 'The Doctor lightened his loafers sandshoes.' *CACKLES*

[identity profile] cynthia2015.livejournal.com 2015-11-10 08:47 am (UTC)(link)
I just think it's strange that Twelve gets criticized in this way because he looks middle age or the fact that he is refereed to as "old man" since he doesn't look "pretty" or a man in his thirties, early forties anymore. I've never used the term myself. The show or other people have.

Eleven seemed to have the upper hand in teasing Ten:
*Matchstick man
*Too skinny, this (gestures to himself) is proper skinny.
*And you can take it from him, cos he's really checked.

Ten called him chinny

The "War Doctor" got a few in there too.

I wonder what it would have been liked with Nine?.

I like Twelve with his guitar too. It would be one way he uses his time in the TARDIS because Clara is not always traveling with him.

I considered buying a pair of converse but I lifted it and I thought I better stick to another brand like Sketchers or something.

Thanks for the feedback.:)

Well, if you don't factor in his new set of regens, he is an old man. Called him that myself...when he was Eleventy. Now I call him 'young punk', lol!!

He did!! And took rather a delight in it, too. Though, to give Ten credit, it had been a while since he'd had a back and forth with a Companion.

It would have been more epic if Nine could have come...goodness, the stuff they all would have tossed around!!

Anytime!

*HUGS*

I don't mind the term "old man" as a sign of respect or endearment. What I don't like is when it is used as an insult. However since it is used on the show both ways, I will try not to be annoyed by it. Negative information tends to get to me and I seldom are able to accept positive feedback. That's probably why it bugged me.

Clara went from saying "those big sad eyes to old man" when referring to the Doctor. I wonder what she would have called Ten?. She missed the chance when she met him. Although there probably wasn't enough time to profile him besides the brief encounter of "nice suit".

The Doctor in general needs a champion to bounce ideas from and for company. Ten was the most lonely. He even forgot Martha had left and was talking to himself before he meet up with Donna again. Even when he did have someone with him, they would still need to help him on his social skills. Now I can picture Ten trying to read one of those self-help books alone in the TARDIS. Being on his own for so long effected him so much that his hair wasn't as Wilf called it, "sticky uppy"

If Nine was there he'd be wondering, "Did I make myself pretty for Rose?".

"What I really want to happen is for Tentoo to somehow get back to the original universe and the Doctor almost hyperventilates and keeps screaming ‘HYBRID!!!! YOU ARE A HYBRID!!! HYBRIDHYBRIDHYBRIDHYBRIDHYBRIDHYBRIDHYBRID!!’ and Tentoo just stands there like what the fuck happened to me
(x)"

Then Tentoo goes..."Where's Donna?".

I'm just waiting for the Doctor or someone else in one scene to drive up in a Hybrid Toyota car.

"Twelve stares for a long moment: "Lost her more than a thousand years ago, my lad."

Then Tentoo responds with "Why do you look like that dude you saved from Pompeii?".

I don't know exactly the ramifications Rusty was going for in regards to Donna becoming part time lord, part human or as the series has been addressing...

Donna is a Hybrid!. I'm to assume Donna's lifespan wouldn't have been effected even with a time lord brain, otherwise Donna would be wondering what was going on with her biology since she can't remember.:(

I guess I'm so annoyed that Tentoo and Donna were separated from each other, that It feel's just like yesterday that this happened. I need to remind myself that..."A LOT OF TIME HAS PASSED SILLY!".

"If that doesn't happen I'll now be DEEPLY disappointed."

Moffat is really laying it on thick with this series mystery-theme, so I will mock it for fun.:) Unless Moffat is interested in a joint venture with Toyota, I doubt it would happened. Maybe there could be a scene where Clara is washing her hair with a 2in1 shampoo and conditioner?.

Your BBF userpic reminds me of when I use to link arms with my best friend in high school. We were trying to impersonate the chipmunks from that Heckle and Jeckle cartoon. "Shall we?. Let's shall".

"RTD wrote himself into a corner, because how and why would Donna leave? She was extremely happy. Hence what happened."

In other words a champion cannot be in total bliss traveling with the Doctor because they will be doomed. Too bad that the only outcome.:(

"No, I think she's fairly 'normal' human. (Poor Donna.) And there are hybrids EVERYWHERE."

Does that mean she on longer has a time lord brain?. I thought the Doctor just "locked" it away?. Will the Twelve freak out if he sees River Song again?. She's a hybrid right?.

At the moment I've run out of "hybrid" jokes.:)

Donna: I was gonna to be with you, forever. The rest of my life. Traveling in the TARDIS.

That bit will always stick with me. I haven't been this effected by a scene between two people about to be separated since Buffy sent Angel to hell, and the latter were a romantic couple. While Ten and Donna was not.:(

"I meant physically. She still has the Time Lord part, just locked, so she doesn't burn up."

Why couldn't Donna have had a fob watched? I know why, because Donna had to be written out.

"I'm sure we'll think of more..."

How about using the song, "2 Become 1" by the spice girls?. No?.
