allrightfine:This is such a phenomenal moment for Rose # she never got her A-levels # never felt particularly clever by our Earth standards # until she met the Doctor and realized that Earth standards are pretty limited when it comes to evaluating someone’s worth # And here’s a kid - Adam - who is the BEST of what Earth has to offer in terms of intelligence # boy genius with high marks and a high-paying top-secret job # By Earth standards he’s got everything to offer # and here he is stumbling around in front of her because he’s ignorant # because Rose has seen and experienced more than he could imagine # because SHE’s the special one # the one the Doctor chose for her cleverness and courage # She’s the one in the superior position # Which is not probably a feeling she’s used to # And bless her she doesn’t lord it over him (via gallifreyburning)Oh how I love Rose Tyler! I do feel bad for Adam, though, because in just two episodes he gets brought down so far. He’s still smart and lively and decent and I hope he didn’t end up feeling worthless just because he, unlike Rose, didn’t have what it takes to be the Doctor’s companion. -- source link
