LOL. Although I'm not sure about 'everyone'. I used to have a 'River fan. No apologies' icon. And it was relevant. People did. not. like. her. or they thought she was the Rani or the Master or something else. Well, from what I can tell, River *still* is a divisive character. Although I do think that the characters/actors/plots/things that don’t divide the DW fandom can be counted on the fingers of one hand, and I’m being generous.
And now that you mentioned it, GOOD GOD. What is it with the Rani fans?! Why does she have so many, anyway? Every new character is ALWAYS the Rani until proven otherwise! Okay, we all have our faves, but this is not a reasonable or healthy way to approach fiction! Oh well :)
(I’ll get back to you on “Swift Musings” when I get the time -because probable huge explanation about my opinion, why I *will* still stick with it, but also one or two interesting things I hadn’t noticed, were I to go with yours.)
