Nope, didn't get to actually sit down and write anything about "The Story and the Engine" last week, so I have to bundle it with "The Interstellar Song Contest". I just have no idea where my time is going nowadays.

New episode tomorrow and I still haven't written much about the last one. So, I figured I better do it before I lose it.

I have to run off to an all-day band thing, so we watched the episode early in the morning and I only have a couple minutes to say a few things.

Warning: VERY spoiler-y. Avoid until you've seen the episode.

Episode three of series 15! I don't know how many episodes there will be this season (yes, I avoid spoilers to that extent) but I'm sure that there won't be more than eight or nine, and I'm a little sad that we're already 1/3 done. But...

(And I'm going to warn you now, spoilers! Like, big spoilers. Starting with the first paragraph bethind the cut. So if you click, it's your fault.)

I'm finally sitting down to get my thoughts about the new season and these two episodes, so here goes.

"Triumph"

shivver: (Default)
Title: "Triumph"
Fandom(s): Doctor Who
Characters: Lindy Pepper-Bean
Pairing(s): None
Rating: G
Genre: General
Word Count: 200

Summary:
Lindy: "What do you mean, the Great Beyond?"
Hoochy: "The Wild Wood."
Brewster: "And further than that. The river leads down to the sea, and there's a whole world out there, untamed... Now we can go out there, to this planet, and we can fight it and tame it and own it. We'll be pioneers, just like our ancestors."

Read it on AO3.

Author's Notes: This is the follow-up to "Dot and Bubble" that no one wanted.

Well, that's not quite true. My husband has always wanted the boat to leave the dock and immediately sink or fall off a cliff or explode... and he wanted me to write it. Thus, this story, but it is not what he wanted. (He thinks this story is awful. Good-awful.)

On the bright side, I'm still writing a fic a month.

Ah, the season is almost over! I can't believe it's going so fast! I do wish Doctor Who would go back to twelve or more episodes per season, but on the other hand, I much prefer yearly seasons rather than the longer seasons every two or three years, so if this is what they need to do to return every year, that's fine by me.

Spoilers, of course...

This season is going by too fast!

Spoilers ahead!

It's been a few days since we saw the episode and we haven't rewatched it, so this review will be a bit vague on details.

But still, spoilers.

Third episode of the new season! We're very disappointed that they're not keeping up the two-episodes-a-week cadence, but I guess that just means that the season will last for a while, rather than just "Boom, done!" (Heh, that was not intentional.)

Spoilers ahead!

First episodes of the new season, and of the new Doctor! Okay, yes, technically, "The Church on Ruby Road" is the first episode of both the new season and the new Doctor, but though it did feed into season arc, it really didn't give us much about the new Doctor, as it was mostly about Ruby.

Anyway, whatever. Reviews below, and spoilers, of course. I should note, I've seen both episodes twice now. We watched the two, then went back and watched "The Church on Ruby Road", and then rewatched the two.

Okay, I’ve watched it twice now and the bottom line is, this episode was a lot of fun. It concentrated on who the companion Ruby is, not on the Doctor, so the Doctor’s personality is still up in the air, but on the other hand, he was definitely enjoyable to watch.

Very spoilery and speculative.

Enjoyed it! It's impossible to tell at this point if this episode was a good introduction to the Doctor (meaning, if it totally painted the Doctor like "The Christmas Invasion" and "The Eleventh Hour" did), but so far Fifteen is awesome.

Vaguely spoilery comments:
