Brief Who thoughts.
The Doctor's Wife
I've tried to write down thoughts on this episode, honestly, but they just... don't work. 'Effulgent' is still the best description. I love the fact that they stole each other and the timey-wimey-ness of their interactions ('Goodbye'/'Hello' back to-front; 'Why is that word so sad? No. Will be sad...'; 'This is when we talked...' Oh show, breaking my heart with grammar and tenses). I love the confirmation that Timelords can change sex when they regenerate (which sheds a very interesting light on things, and explains a lot about the Doctor's general attitude to these things, actually). Loved Amy and Rory (but they'll get their own post). Loved how Eleven was so utterly heartbreaking, and yet his grief and loss wasn't the focus, and the last beat of the episode was him dancing. Really, loved it all, nothing to add.
The Rebel Flesh
Now this episode I do have thoughts on, especially since it ties in with the overarching themes, but I want to watch part 2 before I try to sort through it all (mirror, mirror, on the wall...). But! One thing I'm as sure of as I can possibly be: Ganger!Doctor is NOT the Doctor who gets killed in The Impossible Astronaut. (Much like I was certain that S5 would end with a wedding, even after Rory had been killed and removed from history.) Anyway, I am very curious about what the Doctor knows and isn't telling. Plus - I can't wait to see the Doctor trying to practice what he preaches, what with two of him there. Last time he had a clone, the poor chap got tossed into Pete's World after about three seconds' worth of interaction - this time I am expecting a lot of 'in a mirror, darkly' and so forth. And mutual bow-tie admiration. <3

(Still no. Even though I have - whisper it - the Pokemon soundtrack... Miss M used to love that show when she was tiny.)
Also I don't have a clue what to write, which is a slight obstacle. Not to mention all the OTHER fic that I need to write first...
