gallifreyantimelady:#can we talk about the fact that rory is actually older than the doctor?#yes can we please #because when you think about it rory is at that point around 2000 years old and the doctor is 900-1100 years old #think about how heavily time is weighing on the doctor and how it changes him #rory isn’t like that #to be fair rory isn’t exactly the last of his kind #rory doesn’t have the same self hate the doctor does #rory is human now #but those 2000 years of waiting as a nestene duplicate didn’t make him dark #and he was alone that entire time #the whole damn time #and we see how being alone changes the doctor #how angry he becomes #how self-loathing #and then you have to think to yourself #what makes them so different #and you realize it’s amy #of course it’s amy #rory could endure all that time alone because he would always have amy in the end #but the doctor doesn’t have that #he has no one waiting for him and no one to wait for #he will always be alone because in the end they all leave him #they all break his heart -- source link
