'Fear Me, I Killed All Of Them' . Notes on dark!Doctor meta vid.

The image above is a link to a new vid by tv_fan_2008. She very kindly let me preview it last week, asking for feedback. What she got was a lot of flailing & meta, as it is basically the dark!Doctor vid in my head that I am unable to make. I asked her whether she'd like me to write the notes up, and as she thought this was a good idea, here's the accompanying meta to her vid (including her input & corrections, obviously). Watch the vid, and then - if you're interested - come back to dig into all the lovely layers. (This is of course only one aspect of the Doctor, examined in detail...) SPOILERS for everything aired so far.

Quotes

CLIVE: Death.

DAVROS: The man who abhors violence, never carrying a gun. But this is the truth, Doctor: you take ordinary people and you fashion THEM into weapons.

The Doctor... the man who keeps running, never looking back, because he dare not, out of shame. This is my final victory, Doctor. I have shown you... yourself.

THE DOCTOR: There was a goblin, or a trickster, or a warrior. A nameless, terrible thing, soaked in the blood of a billion galaxies. The most feared being in all the cosmos. And nothing could stop it, or hold it, or reason with it. One day it would just drop out of the sky and tear down your world.
