So at first I was gonna say ‘I’m not sure if Capcom was intentional with how ambiguously queer Marisa was in the promos’ but now that the game is officially out I can say NOPE THIS SHIT WAS NOT ACCIDENTAL

In rewatching Revival!Doctor Who and analyzing it as I go I think part of the reason that Rose Martha and Donna work so well as a conceptual trio of companions is obviously in part because they were written really well but also because they all serve as such excellent counterbalances to the doctor based on where he was as a person when they met him. Once of my favorite parts of my rewatch is seeing all the character interactions and just how starkly the companions differ between the first few seasons because it really speaks a lot both to their characters and the Doctor’s.
Rose encounters him fresh off of a war, still mourning a massive loss and guilty for the role he played in it. He’s an old man, alone and grieving and implied to have been like that for a while. This is one analysis that I have seen before, Rose bumping into him, young and full of life and uncertain but so willing and eager to see more of the world that it rekindles his passion to explore time and space and show it to someone for the first time. Pretty much all of season one is about showing off how rusty he is about interacting with people and cleaning up the messes his traveling causes, but it’s clear that despite Nine’s gruffness Rose helped him rediscover his enjoyment of just being around others.
Martha, for all her underrated moments, acted as a sort of well-needed opposite for Rose. Ten was well-known for being very bombastic, very showy, typically in a way that was endearing but sometimes veered into showboating and self-aggrandizing. Rose was never much for telling him to rein it in, because she was often just as caught up in the excitement as he was. Martha comes in slightly older, more confident, detail-minded and an aspiring doctor who can clearly handle herself, not cynical but far more realistic and practical. I think that’s a lot of the reason why she’s less liked by the fandom, but I also think that’s why she works so well as a character and as a companion. Though she ends up harboring a crush similar to Rose, it’s not enough to keep her from calling the doctor out when need be, whether he’s being reckless or deliberately hiding things from her. For all of his accomplishments, the doctor still needs someone willing to call him out when he’s going too far, to (no pun intended) bring him down to earth and remind him of the effect he has on others and to think things through a little more. She’s also emotionally intelligent enough to recognize how incompatible they were and leave on her own accord, knowing there was nothing she had to fundamentally change about herself because she was already happy with who she was as a person.
Donna, in a way, acts as a sort of happy medium, less ‘major change’ and more 'course maintenance.’ Though she’s passionate about traveling, she still has no trouble in offering her snarky barbs and jabs when she disagrees with something. She’s a slightly older career-oriented woman like Martha, but yearning for something more and trying to find fulfillment like Rose. Donna and the doctor feel on very equal footing despite their short time together, because despite her sense of insecurity the doctor does actually listen to her even if it’s just the two of them snarking about them something silly. She can cheer him up as easily as she can pull him back. Just a lot of little nudges to make sure he neither loses his enthusiasm nor forgets to think about what he’s doing.
All three of them build off of the Doctor’s growth as a character during the first few seasons, and I think that’s a really interesting progression to watch unfold. All three play an important role with him, and it’s a good clear reminder of how important the companions are to the series aside from just acting as an audience surrogate
I have OCD and with that comes quasi-hallucinations, and I grew up watching a ton of horror films so some of the worst of mine are the standard white skin/black hair demon girl type shit.
However, because a lot of them are based on horror film I have found comfort in doing things that “go against” horror films and being like “see? This could never happen.”
(It’s irrational. I know that. But shut up. This is how I cope.)
For example: I started hearing garbled whispering from beneath my table, so I started playing the muppets sound track. Because they would never play Movin’ Right Along when the protagonist is about to get attacked. That won’t happen. Disney, who owns the muppets, wouldn’t give them the rights.
And it fucking worked.

You know that study that found when doing a blind taste test the majority of people prefer pepsi over coca cola so coke changed their recipe to taste more like pepsi, and people actually liked the new coke a lot less because the people who were buying coke didn't want it to taste like pepsi they wanted their coke to taste like coke. That's what a lot of the new changes tumblr is working on feel like.
